Dear Friends,
Thanks a lot for all your support and encouragement. It moved me a lot. I felt it is better to take time off in the best interests of mayyam, you all and me, but will join you all soon. I even feel very sorry and guilty for whatever happened recently.
Before taking some time off, I would like to mention this again about Maestro. Maestro is not just another musician as some feel here. HE IS THE ONLY NATURAL, GIFTED, ORIGINAL, PURE MUSICIAN OF OUR TIMES, IF NOT ALL TIMES. To achieve what he has achieved musically in these 35 years, it will easily take a minimum of 300-400 years for some one. That's how easy it is. There is not a single page of music he hasn't uncovered. He is the only one who can see Idayam POguthe in Schubert or Poo MaalayE in Bach or Poovaadikalil in Thyagaraja. He is the only one who brought the Kalyani to Keeravani to roots of villages. He is the only one who has made us see cities in a different light and context through his compositions. He is the only composer who has touched every human emotions and elements in his compositions. He is the only composer who has taken us literally to every region right from our smallest village to the towns of India to the western world through his compositions. He is the only one who can compose Aattu kutti muttai ittu to Yeh KiLi irukku Pazham irukku to Madai thiranthu to Mari mari ninE to Aavesamantha Aalapanele to Thoongaatha VizhigaL Rendu to Hey Baby to Ambum Kombum to Edaya Bagilu to Ennada Pandi to Srirama Lera to Senkathir Kaayum. It is not that simple as what I have stated. Have we seen this much versatile composer ever, not just from India. Have we seen this much prolific composer ever who has raised the standards of music to extra-ordinary levels and raised the life of many producers, directors and actors. Even after doing all this, he is saying, he does not know music. Have we seen any selfless composer and as humble as Maestro? His achievement in music is endless. He is the only REAL musical face of India which world (even most India) has not seen. Clouds cannot hide the Sun for long enough. Just like Sun rays are powerful that it can pierce clouds to reach us, I certainly believe his music will reach the world soon. Time will certainly tell who this brilliant musician is and what his fascinating mind is.
Just because this genius and legend is living during our times, we tend to take his efforts very lightly and loosely. My only concern is if you are a serious music listener (not a fan), you cannot pull down a giant musician like Maestro to all corners and stamp with your feet, that too in his home. It is the biggest sin to have ever happened for music and there is no 'paapa vimochanam' for that.
Will soon join you, till then. Thank you again everyone!

Expected this and heard this from LM today. You are right Plum, this is a sanctuary from real life. Whatever you and your posts may have been to people, you were (almost) never *wrong*, let there be no doubts about that :thumbsup:
