It seems this is how Jayalalitha’s party members pay homage to their leader by prefacing their questions in Lok Sabha with:


 "My namaskaram to my leader, Puratchithalaivi Tamil Tai Amma and our honourable Speaker, popularly known as Hindi Tai ... Madam, with blessings of our leader, Puratchithalaivi Amma, I want to raise my first supplementary question.”


What does “puratchithalaivi” translate to?

Puratchi Thalaiavi comes from sanskrit. Puratchi has origin in Purattu (meaning lies), similar to buruda.

But, my important question is "Is Sithraman an Iyer or an Iyengar?"

JJ is an Iyengar. (one of my friend's mother is JJ's cousin and I have heard stories about JJ since the bygone era).

I don't ever "seem" to have asked for the meaning of that word, and "compelled" at that! It's a question put to those who care to respond, and I wouldn't care less if you do not wish to.

Please don't mind Max and his nasty attitude. The violent bollywoodhindi movies that he watched recently are to be blamed for his foul mood. Otherwise he is a very nice person ( if you can ignore the streaks of snobbishness) as we know.

Beatrix Kiddo wrote:Tai means elder sister in Marathi.

"thayi," I believe, is another word for mother in Tamil. There is a Tamil song - thaaye tripurasaundari umamaheshwari.... on the divine mother. The same word meaning mother also appears in Kannada. thaayi-tande in Kannada is mother-father (parents). In Telugu it's thalli-tandrulu (parents).

Elder sister in Tamil/Kannada/Telugu is "akka."

But "akka" means mother in Sanskrit (but not in nice loving way).

Go figure.  Smile

She is fond of Krishna; may be an Iyengar? The father doesn't seem to have horizontal lines on the forehead! But she is married to a smartha (similar to Iyers).

Yeah. It's easy if we stick to Itrans method of transliteration. That's what we use for Sanskrit transliteration. There are many software programs that can let you go back and forth between Itrans and Devanagari. Here is the Wiki on Itrans. ("t" sound is like in mitra/putra, and "T" sound is like in vaaTika/auto/note etc.

What happened? I thought you were once considered a model poster - with puzzles and quizzes, and the CMAGS cited as a model accommodative hindu.

Guess your unrelenting support to Modi ji outted your Chaddiness and now you are a marked and on the shyt list of CMAGS group.

Or, MaxE is in a peri-mAnopausal stage.

Because your country's constitution does not permit a minister to speak in parliament in anylanguage other than Hindi and English.

JJ is an Iyengar. (one of my friend's mother is JJ's cousin and I have heard stories about JJ since the bygone era).
She is fond of Krishna; may be an Iyengar? The father doesn't seem to have horizontal lines on the forehead! But she is married to a smartha (similar to Iyers).
"
Krishna, Krishna
As the dessert — kheer and malpua — arrive, Ms Sitharaman volunteers suddenly, “Sitting here is so appropriate. I have been doing a study on Krishna worship in India in temples where Krishna is named as Krishna in the moolasthana. There is enough evidence to show that in these temples the puja padhathi is not derived from the agamashastras or Vedic narration only. In fact, they have all picked up on verses derived during the Bhakti movement.” We nod knowledgeably.
She points out how in the east coast, Krishna has become Balaji, Jagannatha and so on, whereas on the west coast, right from Dwaraka, Vittala or further down to Udupi or Guruvayur, they have all been following a worship pattern that is written by Krishna bhaktas — songs written by the local devotees.
Of the people, by the people, for the people, we suggest. But there hasn't been much time to study Krishna worship traditions recently."

I have decided to give myself a title and will work on it.

My preferred title is "Sri Sri Dr. Commander Saamiyaar" but one with a similar title got into a lot of trouble.

ahhhh... just now the tubelight came on.
