"It is exciting to be a Telugu in these times. Traditionally very soft spoken and hard working, this community from the state of Andhra Pradesh in India has earned a name for itself in the areas of modern farming, Information Technology, Science and Research. This community has provided huge manpower in knowledge based industries like Information Technology and medicine.

World Telugu Mahotsavam 2013 is the brainchild of Aruna Chandrala, a prominent Telugu community member, and ex-President of United Indian Associations, the peak Indian community body in Australia and also the current President of Global Women’s Network. Says Aruna, “I was in India last year to participate in the World Telugu Mahotsavam event in Ongole invited by Ramky Foundation. Representatives from various Telugu Associations like TANA, ATA, NATA, and SILICON ANDHRA expressed their happiness and satisfaction on first World Telugu Festival. They expressed their wish to organize a similar event overseas to promote our culture across the world" - Source

Our Culinary Technology

17:50 culture No comments

A must have in every house, these are the stone-made choppers, blenders, grinders and mixers that helped us in our daily fare in the kitchen before their modern counterparts were invented. These are the superior technologies for they are not only environmentally- friendly with no electricity required and with each piece lasting over 3 generations, they preserve the flavours in the foods prepared, blend to the right consistency and can break down anything from hard cinnamon barks and lentils to the soft onions and chillies. Stone blend ingredients have always been associated with authentic cooking and some households still preserve these invaluable pieces in their kitchens.

Telugu Third Most Searched Indian Language on Google

00:36 language No comments

"HYDERABAD: Telugu films, known for their larger than life portrayals, have now become the driving force for the language's popularity in the virtual space.

A comparison of search volumes of major Indian regional languages on Google Trends from 2004 onwards shows that worldwide search for Telugu comes third, only behind Hindi and Tamil, with a bulk of searches emanating from India. But in the US, home to the largest Indian population outside India, searches for Telugu and Tamil are nearly equal in volume. Over the nine-year period from 2004 the search volumes show an increase for the three languages. 'Trends' shows how often a search term is entered in Google Search." -Times of India, July 7. 2013

Telugu Bhasha Dinostavam -Telugu language day celebrated on August 29

17:21 language No comments

source-wikipedia

Telugu ‘bhasha dinostavam' (language day) is celebrated on August 29 to coincide with the birth anniversary of Gidugu Vengata Ramamurthy, who championed the cause of modern Telugu language. Gidugu Venkata Ramamurthy Pantulu was a Telugu writer who was known for his stance in spreading the Telugu language in his time.

"The Telugu Language Day coincides with the Birth anniversary of Gidugu Venkata Ramamurthy Pantulu. Gidugu like Guruzada Appa Rao and others, advocated the use of spoken Telugu so that the majority of the people could understand it instead of the language that was used by earlier poets and scholars. Previously scholars advocated a language of status which was the bookish language of scholars and poets like Srinatha, Tikkana and Potana, and they looked down upon the colloquial spoken dialect which they considered inferior to the language of the scholars and pundits. But this bookish language was more sanskritized and, as such, could not be understood by the lay people." - Source

Essence of Shrimad Bhagwat: Essence of Shrimad Bhagwat

03:11 No comments

In Shrimad Bhagwad Lord Krishna told the essence of life to Uddhava. He said that the wisdom of all the people of the world is fascinated by illusiveness. By this we describe several means of self-welfare according to our own actions and interests. Everyone considers the goal of his life to his own task and their results and thinks that the work done by him will get rid of the mess of life and death. A king thinks he is doing the best for subjects, A writer thinks that he is writing literature for the betterment of people, the doctor thinks that it is healing for the betterment of people. Thus everybody surely makes an effort in his life which gives him sympathy from the inside that he has done the work for the welfare of society, which will give good result. Read More
