Among the departures for the study is middle-class worship and the place of women

Dr. Sumathi

Abstract


It is possible to know about the internal and external life of the people of that time through Sangha literary songs which are a symbol of the life of the Palandamis. Excerpts speak of the valor, resourcefulness and gift of the Tamils. A life of 'war' seems to have been inevitable in those times. A man who entered the battlefield and reached the heroic heaven was considered admirable. Noting the weapons, methods of war and the scenes of war unfolding in the mind's screen through songs, scholars celebrate the Sangam period as the 'Veera Yuga' period and the Sangam songs as Veera Yuga symbols. Kailasapati says that 'Palantamira's heroism was at the third level after Sumerian and Greek heroism'1. Sanga literary texts explain that men and women worshiped men and women by planting a middle stone as a memorial to those who died in war and inscribed with the name of the hero. Dasaratha battles Sambhasura from a chariot in Sambhasura Yuddha in Bharat, which is revered as a work of mythological literature. Kambaramayana mentions that Dasaratha's chariot wheel falls off, and Kaikeyi immediately rushes to stop the chariot wheel by putting his own finger on it.

Keywords: Middle class workship, Palandamis, Valor, Kailasapati.
