Thulaseedalam

Thulaseedalam is our “Samajapathrika”. The very purpose of this magazine is to communicate with the Pisharodies around the world. It is an envoy which brings to the homes of the members anything and everything relating to the Samajam. This “Samajapathrika” was later renamed as “Thulaseedalam” and an emblem designed by honourable Late Sanskrit scholar Sri. Eranellur Bharatha Pisharody. Late Dr. S.K.Pisharody has helped Thulaseedalam very much financially to tide over its difficulties at the early stage. With Late Sri. Elamkulam Krishna Pisharody as editor and Sri. K.Govinda Pisharody as Manager, the magazine flourished and was able to stand on its own legs.

In 1990 ‘s magazine got a new life by Late Sri. Arangottu Sekhara Pisharody. The magazine which started from nothing, under the leadership of Panditharathnam K.P.Narayana Pisharody as editor and Sri. V.P.Sukumaran and Krishnadas as managers maintained a high standard in matter of the contents of the magazine and attained financial stability.

In 2024 Samajam decided to install The Thulasidalam Literary Award with an aim, keeping in mind the possibility of reaching out to the outer world through our magazine called Thulasidalam where our community will also be noticed. By such an act the general public will know that there is a community called Pisharody here and that they are creative and fulfill their commitment to the society by publicly honouring eminent personalities in the field of literature and cultural world.

The award was named after our first Kulapathi of Samajam and past Chief Editor of Thulaseedalam, Panditharatnam Late K P Narayana Pisharody. It was also decided to honour Pisharody writers selected out of the works in a year published in Thulaseedalam by giving Sargga Prathibha Puraskaram as also upcoming talents by giving them Navamukulam Puraskaram.

The first Thulaseedalam K P Narayana Pisharody Memorial Award was bestowed to Sri. C Radhakrishnan, an eminent Writer, Scientist & Film Director. The first Sargga Pratibha Puraskaram was given to Smt. Rema Prasanna Pisharody and Navamukulam Puraskaram to Master Vishnudath Pisharody.

Apart from the Samajam news, the magazine is giving a chance to young literacy talents from pisharody families to develop their skills by publishing their amateur works in the magazine. The matter intended to be published in Thulaseedalam should be sent to the editor’s address or to email thulaseedalamedb@gmail.com .
