hari om. thanks to Aravind for extending teh analogy
with real insight. In telugu, the vowels are called
'achhulu' and the consonants 'hallulu'. I feel
'achhulu' is a corrupt form of 'aksharalu' and akshar
means 'one which is not destroyed' (pl. correct me if
any error is there). As Aravind puts it, vowels are
the one which hold together the consonants and give
meaning! But if we look at it from another angle, the
vowels also 'need' consonants! so light is all the
more enjoyable when a shadow is there to contrast.

analogies are never meant to be identities. they help
us to understand a concept better, till we actually
experience it.

hari om.

swamy swarna
