KADAVUL- WHAT A GREAT WORD? KADAVUL- WHAT A GREAT WORD?

I think in the history of religions and civilizations, Tamils are the first one to coin such a word. This word KADAVUL stands out and provides a totally different perspective of religion, god, truth etc. The equivalent words(Deva, pathi, god, etc) in other languages are so different philosophically, idealogically, from tamil usage. But Tamils have lost the original cannotation of the word KADAVUL, possibly because of brahminical influences.

KADVUL = KADA+UL (It is more of a process than the object) meaning internal blossoming, self realization etc.

Any comments, ..........

Tamil and Sanskrit both are Divine languages.

hey

never thought of it. sounds like a very convincing arguement. the process - so poetic aswell. also this kind of meaning is applicable to huindus,christians, jains,moslems etc. almost secular kind of meaning. does anybody know from when the word kadavul started to be used by the tamils. kadandhu - to cross mmmm/.....wish I could communicate this in Thamizh. do you know a good word processing programme in Tamil
I want to learn to type in tamil. know any good
