About This Course
Vaḷḷuvarum Vaḷḷuvamum is a Thirukkuṟaḷ lecture series and FAQ video collection presented by Tamiḻkkuyil Thirukkuṟaḷmaṇi Kā. Kaliaperumal, produced by Tamil and Tamilar Diaspora Research Institute with Euleris.ai. It distinguishes Vaḷḷuvar the person from Vaḷḷuvam the ethical vision. Modules cover his life and legends, Thiruvaḷḷuva Mālai, the Vaḷḷuvar Year, the Patiṉeṇkīḻkkaṇakku classification, the three Pāls and 133 Adhigārams, Kuṟaḷ Veṇpā meter, commentary traditions, translation history, and memorial sites. Each question stands as its own video, so learners may begin anywhere. Legend is framed as culture, not chronicle. The series carries Kuyilār's lifetime of Kuṟaḷ scholarship to students, teachers, and diaspora Tamils worldwide as a lasting gift.
