Since his Ascension coincided with the beginning ofMalayalam as a distinctive language, he shouldn't considered aTamil King—Precedingunsigned comment added by75.144.215.49 (talk)18:14, 23 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Not a very good article. It says he lived in Kollam and contradicts itself by saying he lived at Srirangam. Neither is true because his capital was Mahabalipuram. No mention of being the founder of Second Cherman Empire and the beginning of Malayalam as a distinctive language which coincided his coronation.—Precedingunsigned comment added by75.144.215.49 (talk)20:35, 23 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
There is another wikipedia page for the same person athttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kulasekara_Alvar, so I took that info, added links and merged it with this one.Shiva das21:53, 9 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Aryan-Brhmin theory is proved wrong. What is the basis for quoting that?— Precedingunsigned comment added by165.201.59.205 (talk)19:10, 9 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The Bhakti cult consolidated the Vedic religion
Tamil bhakti cult does not recorgnise caste system and vedic rituals.Eventhough Bhakti traditions(overall) often fused with Bhagavad Gita and Bhagavata Purana,the traditions which initially start in medieval Tamil Nadu do not adhere/stress to these Sanskrit text and their concepts.It is wrong to include Tamil Bhakti as a part of Vedism as they greatly contraindicate(concepts,rituals)In terms of Pan India situation,this Bhakti traditions only seen as a defence towards other indian and non-indian religions rather than stressing the difference in terms of concept and culture that evolved through different Bhakti movements in different parts of India.--Rajendra Prasath Arumon 18:29, 4 July 2012 (UTC)— Precedingunsigned comment added byRajendra Prasath Arumon (talk •contribs)
Alvars were 12 known Tamil Saints who helped to reestablish Vaishnavism in Tamilakkam.Malayalees as a distinct race only evolved about 13th century and that has nothing to do with Kulasekhara Alwar,Kollam era starts even after his death.PLEASE STOP THESE KIND OF BASELESS CLAIMS AND VANDALISE THE ARTICLE.--Tan Meifen (talk)12:36, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Baseless claims is one thing, and it should be countered with properly sourced claims.Vandalism is quite another issue, not the case here.HoverfishTalk15:20, 17 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
