Dear Netters,

There is a very curious and rare piece of info about an ancient Tamil
practice which I have put up with the help of Angiah.
Its about ritualistic self-sacrifice - a Tamil version of Harakiri with
the accompanying photo of the ancient statue.

If there are any comments or questions, please feel free to ask-
relevant questions.

Regards

Jayabarathi
