thank you so much SPS sir, we had interesting time going through old discussions. the old discussions themselves are treasure troves of tamil history and they have to be archived for posterity.
i had seen thiru-aiyaru temple 10 years ago and there in the southern side of the main sanctum there is a carving of a king. the temple notice board says it is karikalan's. but it appeared unlikely to me.
is it possible to have a king's image so small and in a pillair like that? does any one noticed it?
