Language & Culture

Sanskrit literature, Italian, Tamil, Rudram studies

My roots run through Tamil and Sanskrit — the temples, the bronzes, the stone inscriptions, and the chants like the Rudram that carry centuries of meaning. Alongside that, I study Italian for the joy of another language. These are a few images from temples and collections that keep me connected to that heritage.
