Who Is Good Do We Know

I recently watched the popular talk show on StarVijay TV with participation from parents,teachers and students.

And what the teachers see as good and how do they identify the Good Student in general and a Good man in particular.

To my shock none of them have been able to specify a single attribute that characterizes a good Man.

The yard stick to determine One who is Good seems to be,

1.Good education with top rank.

2.Settling well in Life.

3,Respect to elders.

Nambhoothiris are a set of Brahmins who are settled and found in Kerala.

Adi Shankaracharya is from this sect.

Namboothiris are reported to have settled in the western Coast of South India , Kerala.

Parashurama created land from the Arabian sea and established the Namboothiri sect.

The group is a closed group and they do not allow others to get married into their community, even of they are Brahmins.

However this custom is changing now.
