Abstract

Among the grammar books available today, Tholkappiyam sought a unique name and fame all over the world. Tholkappiyam is a repository of too much news that current psychologists wonder if it describes human behavior many thousands of years ago. Tholkappiyam is a pedagogical book of ethics and psychology. It tells us about warfare, heroism, culture, language, marriage, and other religious activities and emotions. In addition, it provides much information about climate, land discrimination, and nature. Tholkappiyam describes the characteristics and lifestyles of the ancient peoples and the way of life of nature.  In this, the great colours of nature have been used to depict different colours in the way of life. Each color has a unique character and exhibits a specific character.
