<BR>>Dear Dr. Jayabarathi,
<BR>>
<BR>>I was very pleased to read your e-mail and attached page re:Navakantam.
<BR>>Fascinating. From the Marco-Polo etc. references, I take it this
<BR>>practice continued occasionally through the medieval period. I also read
<BR>>the ensuing comments in Agathiyar. I believe it would be possible to do
<BR>>this act unassisted, if the preceding rituals were geared for
<BR>>preparation, as I am sure they were. People are capable of so much more
<BR>>than most think. And warriors are well-trained in the art of killing,
<BR>>after all. 
<BR>>
<BR>>It is interesting that even today the warrior (soldiers, police, guards
<BR>>of the mighty or the Almighty) will sometimes feel compelled to lay down
<BR>>their life in sacrafice, or in the face of dishonor, by their own hand.
<BR>>The bullet makes it much easier to accomplish, doesn't it?
<BR>>
<BR>>I believe that I have read somewhere that Durga and Kali are different
<BR>>facets of the same diety, and that the list of names for this diety
<BR>>includes Sharada. Is this correct?

<BR>>Jennifer
