The book of Proverbs. - Introduction: -
The book of Proverbs is a collection of moral and religious teachings in the form of sayings and proverbs. Much of it has to do with practical, every day concerns. It begins with the reminder that “To have knowledge, you must first have reverence for the Lord,” and then goes on to deal with matters. Its many short sayings reveal the insights of ancient Israelite teachers about what a wise person will do in certain situations. Some of these concern family relations, others business dealings. Some deal with matters of etiquette in social relationships, and others with the need for self control. Much is said about such qualities as humility, patience, respect for the poor, and loyalty to friends.

Wisdom and Stupidity: -
It is such a nice day again to blogging after a few days of enjoying and while the City Madurai is in its full maximum gaiety. Madurai, City as such a pilgrimage and now is in celebrating the marriage fest of Goddess Meenakshi with Lord Sudareshwarar. This is celebrated once an year, and the same type of rituals are repeated every year, as part of the celebrations.
Though the city Madurai used to be in its worst heat, temperature and climate, people around never bother about the biting, torturous heat or their sweat getting evaporated. All boys and girls come out in the playful mood and celebrate this nicely.
There is another place called Paramakudi, about 72 kms from here the City Madurai. Though this place is smaller in size when compared to Madurai, the same replica of this dramatical celebration is continued very nicely. As the city is slightly vast in area one has to run around kms to see all happenings around the city. Whereas Paramakudi is so small only about 2 to 3kms of run is enough. We can see all rituals personally and enjoy the celebrations.
If anyone is missing this please feel free to visit Madurai City which is well connected by Air, Rail and Road throughout the year and particularly by special arrangement during festivals.
