Comments on: Understanding Thiruvasakam in Oratorio http://simpleinside.com/posts/2005/09/20/understanding-thiruvasakam-in-oratorio/ A simple weblog published by Sadish Balasubramanian Tue, 06 Jan 2009 06:27:30 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6 By: Mark http://simpleinside.com/posts/2005/09/20/understanding-thiruvasakam-in-oratorio/#comment-17505 Mark Sun, 11 May 2008 16:08:00 +0000 http://simpleinside.com/?p=7#comment-17505 Hello: Excellent interpretation. This echos my views on Ilayaraja's Thiruvasakam. I really think this is his life's work. I have always considered Ilayaraja as a mediocre singer, while a great musical genius. However, he has excelled himself and perhaps many other potential singers in his rendition of Thiruvasakam. He makes me feel like Thiruvasakam was meant to be sung by him. There is soul and spirit in his rendition and manifests his eternal love for almighty. His rendering in reality personifies Manickavasakar's deep love and longing for the almighty. You are right on the money when you say that this is not a group prayer. It is an individual's expression of God. best regards, Mark Hello:
