koorai-p-pudavai

[Guest guest]

SrI:

 

If one goes into the genesis of koorai-p-pudavai, it gives another set

of shocking revelations, as with silk vasthrams.

 

It is infact kora-naattu-p-pudavai, obtained from a place called

kora-naadu known for expert weavers.

 

Initially only cotton was woven and worn during marriages, a practice

that still continues with other South Indian communities, such as

Malayalis, Telugus and Kannadigas. Most communities in tamil naadu

still wear cotton saree only as muhoortha-p-pudavai. Only Brahmains

have changed to pattu-p-pudavai. Perhaps the result of new found

riches and status while working under the British. Writer "kalki's"

old social novels bring out this desire for flaunting affluence. It

depends on the two parties involved in marriage to discourage this

practice of wearing silk.

 

Another question is about how madisaar came into vogue and the

taatparyam of methods of wearing it. This is similar to the taatparyam

of pancha kachcham - the specific number of folds and prana-apana

sandhi naabhi. Madisaar seems to be the reverse of the prana-apana

sandhi and is about kundalalini. This makes me think that the regular

6 yards saree fulfils the rationale better. Wish someone throws more

light on this.
