A Greeting for the 11th World Tamil Conference in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

May 30, 2023

I’m deeply honored to be participating in the 11th World Tamil Conference in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, on July 21-23, 2023, in which I’ll be speaking about my English translation of the Kural: Tiruvalluvar’s Tirukkural.

Watch on YouTube and turn on the captions for an English translation of this greeting in Tamil.

I invite you to learn more about my translation of the Kural as well as my translation of Avvaiyar, issued in a second edition in 2022 by Red Hen Press.
