THE KOZHIKODE TALI - THE SEAT OF PATTANAM

The faculty of creativity manifests itself in myriad forms and multitudinous ways, creating a wide variety of artistes Kalaradhakas. Dedicating themselves to MOTHER Saraswathi their patron deity they serve the society in multifarious ways, motivated by the ideal of Jagathkalyana. Among that infinite variety of artistes, poets occupy a much-coveted place to the envy of the whole community for several reasons. They are Srastas - create like Brahma. Their creations live longer. As they infuse into their works ineffable charm and universal truths they stand as beacon lights for neither mankind to reap bliss and reach that place where cares shake them not, nor loss destabilize them even for a moment. 

They are endowed with such flights of imagination and creative faculty that they surpass the creator Brahma in some aspects. Their mental eye creates what Brahma could not, and their Vakdhati too wins where Brahmas fails. Alas! they are not self-luminous, automobiles but they are push-mobiles, who stand not without a prop, nor live by their Sahitya marichikas.
