The mantravadi used to be all these things, but now, he is just a somebody. A mere mortal. A man reduced to uttering tattuvams. "Yaaru yavadu irakke agalla". yes he said that. Astonishing. True, KK would have been proud of it. But is that a good thing? I would not wish it on my worst enemy.
And do you know the reasons for all this? The fall of the mantra? He crossed the ocean. Yes, a well read, astral soul such as mantravadi should have known better; those who do are doomed to fall. He has fallen too...fallen to the depths of being a mere mortal.
What is a man without his mojo? What is a mantravadi without the impression?
