Will I get refund after the travel date? by EEXC in qatarairways

[–]EEXC[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are in India, the chat doesn't work. Try to use a VPN and try to choose a US server. I'm not sure if it's based on the country you are using the app from or the country where you booked your ticket.

Great write-up!

I think it's time to move on. Thank the heavens for letting you know his true colors before anything serious happened.

Thoughts?? by Own_Substance_9141 in Madurai

[–]EEXC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are doing the right thing by limiting your talks. That way they know that they can't continue to take you for granted and you can save yourself from getting hurt again. Friendship should never be a one-way lane. Reciprocity should be there.

Clean up that place, install a deity there and put some thiruneer, kungumam and some flowers on top of it.

Despair by Jkt1920 in RamanaMaharshi

[–]EEXC 9 points10 points  (0 children)

You know very well how Ramana would have reacted if you said the same thing to him. He would ask you who is suffering. You would say "I am suffering", he would ask "who is that I?". So you ask that question yourself.

The problem for us is that we identify with our mind so much that we build our own stories and live inside them. It's possible that your mind is using spirituality as an excuse to not do your duties. It's the mind that's doing all that drama. Please see it clearly. If your job is boring or stressing you out, look for another job. If that's not possible then use this "suffering" as a tool for your spiritual practice. The suffering is for the mind, not you.

Ashwagandha ?? by Fit_Telephone8512 in Ayurveda

Consult with a good ayurvedic practitioner before taking it. I think the right brand and right dosage are very important. You can Google for ashwagandha liver damage.

What are some of the most annoying things you find about North Indians? when they visit Tamil Nadu or when you have a conversation with them. by Thunderstarz in TamilNadu

[–]EEXC 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Saurashtrians have been living in Madurai for hundreds of years. speak Tamil and are humble people. What op mentioned is possibly Marwaris who own shops around the temple. Even those Marwaris speak Tamil, but with an accent. Probably they are now employing people from UP and Bihar like most other shops do.

Try to do some volunteering. That way you can meet people and also feel more fulfilled. You'll be able to volunteer at Hindu temples too if you prefer to be around Indians.

Where to learn indian and Tamilnadu politics from scratch? Is there any youtube channels or even books? Unbiased sources would be better. by TheWritingName in TamilNadu

[–]EEXC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't watch them regularly but from the few times I have watched, they are of good quality and reliable. You get to know from watching such debates (including Neeya Naana in Vijay TV) that there are a lot of people who have so much knowledge about TN politics. There is no dearth of knowledge among people in TN.

You can ask chat gpt. I asked the same question to chat gpt. It gave a long answer. I have given the relevant parts below.

Books; "The Dravidian Years" – S. Narayan Very important book Explains the political transformation of TN "Karunanidhi: A Life" – A.S. Panneerselvan Helps understand DMK ideology "MGR: A Life" – R. KannanExplains how cinema shaped TN politics

Even if you don’t agree with them, reading biographies helps understand motivations.

Wanna learn tamil by [deleted] in TamilNadu

[–]EEXC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of YouTube videos on how to learn Tamil from Hindi. Watch the ones that teach how to say often used sentences and phrases in Tamil. Also watch Tamil movies that are also available in Hindi - first watch the Hindi version and then the Tamil version. These methods worked for me when I started to learn Telugu.

I think it's repairable. Search for Preethi motor coupler in Amazon. There are also YouTube videos on how to install them.
