About this listen

Learn about the unique blend of culture, tradition, music, and food from this part of South India. More focus on the Palghat (also known as Palakkad) Brahmins (Iyers, specific to that location context), a community known for their unique traits and social contribution. This community is known for their ancient wisdom passed on into next generations by elders in the family. Their customs and traditions in clothing, food preparations, marriage, and even in death. Some parts of these are exclusive to Palghat Iyers.

The audiobook mentions about some general topics in music and religion, common across many societies in Southern India. Palghat Iyers have the unique mix of religion and spirituality practiced in day to day living style. Most importantly, how they have adapted to modern technology society and still preserving the values that makes a man or woman into a humble human being!

This audiobook is meant for western readers to orient themselves something they have never heard. The audiobook has visuals with images to explain the process and activities.
