Agastya rishi

Agastya :
Agastya is the reputed author of several hymns in the Rig- Veda and a very celebrated personage . The Puranas represent him as being the son of Pulastya , the sage from whom the Rakshasas sprang . Agastya is derived from a forced etymology in a fable, which represents him as having commanded the Vindhya Mountains to prostrate before him . Hence he is also called Vindhya Kuta. He is one of the writers of the Brahma Purana and also a writer on
medicine . He holds a distinguished place in the Ramayana , where he dwelt in a hermitage on Mount Kunjara as chief of the hermits of the south . He extended kindness to Lord Rama in exile and went on to become his friend, advisor and protector . He is also said to have gifted the bow of Vishnu to Rama . He is also considered the first teacher of science and literature to the primitive Dravidian tribes . Hence they venerate him .

I had been curious about if you ever considered adjusting the page layout of your site? Its very well written; I really like what you have got to say. But maybe you could create a little more in the way of written content so people can connect to it better. You have got an awful lot of wording for only having one or two photos. Maybe you could space it out better?

I have seen a lot of useful items on your site about pcs. However, I’ve the view that netbooks are still not quite powerful adequately to be a wise decision if you frequently do jobs that require loads of power, for example video editing and enhancing. But for website surfing, statement processing, and majority of other typical computer functions they are perfectly, provided you never mind the small screen size. Thank you for sharing your thinking.

After I originally commented I clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a remark is added I get four emails with the same comment. Is there any means you may take away me from that service? Thanks!
