My love for my language Telugu

Telugu naa maathru bhaasha...

The istham i have for this language
Is because of two factors
one my grand father who has done his SSLC but has narrated me the meaning of so many things that i starting loving the language
Secondly our telugu teacher,BhasakaraLakshmi teacher

She used to narrate and tell telugu lessons so well that i used to understand and relish the beauty of the poet

I remember 2 beautiful poems from ramayanam which was a part of our telugu text book in my class 8th ..that is 1988

1st one
Inavamsodbhavudaina raghavundu
bhoomeesaatmajul vedkatho thanun
veekshimpa muneeswarundalara
kodandambu chenandhi chivvana mopetti
Gunambu vatti patu baaha sakthi tho deesinan
thunigen chaapmu bhoori ghoshambuna vaardhul mrogu chamdambunan!!!!

2nd one--------
Kadalakumee dharathalama kasyapin battu phanindra
Bhoovishaaspadulanu battu koormama
dharani phani kacchapa pothri vargamun
boduvuchu battudee karulu bhoovareedusi chaapamekkidun!!!

The second one comes first in the book
It is about the "siva dhanurbhangam" in seetha swayam varram

There used to be another lesson paarvathee tapassu
Oh !! what a narration she did
"sireesha pushamavadhaana parathvamunan madhuvrathambekkina norchuno vihaga mekkina norchuno nischayimpumaa...."..one of poems in that lesson
This poem is about a parvathi who does penance for shiva
..There used to be similar one in sanskrit..Aparna jatilam
I love that episode of how
people dissuaed parvathi from choosing lord shiva who has deers skin
and who wanders in burial ground
and who has nothing but just vibhuthi
and who earns by begging(aadhi bhikshuvu)

My friend usha who is equally influenced by the teacher remembers
"Srinagara yathra" and "bala vagmayamu"

I strongly believe that a persons interest in such a such a subject is greatly influenced by his/teachers...

I could not find..Bhaskara laxmi teacher there after
she is no more in the same school
If any body knows or finds her please let me know
and i salute to her through this Blog
