Arulmigu Thiru Vaishnava Nambi Kovil

#TamilNaduTemples 🚩

Vaishnava Nambi Temple is located in Thirukurungudi, Tamil Nadu, and one among the 108 Divya Deshams. Mahavishnu is worshipped as Vaishnava Nambi and Lakshmi Devi as Kurungudivalli Nachiyar.

Temple is also called Dakshina Vaikuntam
Sthala Puranam says that, there lived a Peasant Nambaduvan, who was great Vishnu Bhakta. He was a Harijan and couldn't enter the Temple
Dwajasthambam of the temple obstructed his Darshan, so Mahavishnu asked Dwajasthambam to move leftwards
One day while walking towards the temple, he was stopped by an asura who was hungry & wanted to eat Nambaduvan. Nambaduvan asked permission from asura to worship Mahavishnu and then, asura could eat him. Mahavishnu (Nambi )was pleased by his devotion and came outside the temple.
While returning, Mahavishnu appeared as a Brahmin and tried to convince him to go away from the asura. But, Nambaduvan wanted to keep his promise and went near rakshasa.  The asura was pleased that Nambaduvan returned to him and promised that he wouldn't kill him.

Nambaduvan sang glorious songs there of Mahavishnu and gifted those to asura. Suddenly Rakshasa roopam was changed to a Brahmin, whose name was Soma Sharma. Panguni Bramosthavam, and Karthigai Kaisiga Ekathasi is celebrated in a grand manner here.

How can we use language supervision to learn better visual representations for robotics?

Introducing Voltron: Language-Driven Representation Learning for Robotics!

Videos of humans performing everyday tasks (Something-Something-v2, Ego4D) offer a rich and diverse resource for learning representations for robotic manipulation.

Yet, an underused part of these datasets are the rich, natural language annotations accompanying each video. (2/12)

The Voltron framework offers a simple way to use language supervision to shape representation learning, building off of prior work in representations for robotics like MVP (
https://t.co/Pb0mk9hb4i) and R3M (https://t.co/o2Fkc3fP0e).

The secret is *balance* (3/12)

Starting with a masked autoencoder over frames from these video clips, make a choice:

1) Condition on language and improve our ability to reconstruct the scene.

2) Generate language given the visual representation and improve our ability to describe what's happening. (4/12)

By trading off *conditioning* and *generation* we show that we can learn 1) better representations than prior methods, and 2) explicitly shape the balance of low and high-level features captured.

Why is the ability to shape this balance important? (5/12)

The chorus of this song uses the shlokas taken from Sundarkand of Ramayana.

It is a series of Sanskrit shlokas recited by Jambavant to Hanuman to remind Him of his true potential.

1. धीवर प्रसार शौर्य भरा: The brave persevering one, your bravery is taking you forward.


2. उतसारा स्थिरा घम्भीरा: The one who is leaping higher and higher, who is firm and stable and seriously determined.

3. ुग्रामा असामा शौर्या भावा: He is strong, and without an equal in the ability/mentality to fight

4. रौद्रमा नवा भीतिर्मा: His anger will cause new fears in his foes.

5.विजिटरीपुरु धीरधारा, कलोथरा शिखरा कठोरा: This is a complex expression seen only in Indic language poetry. The poet is stating that Shivudu is experiencing the intensity of climbing a tough peak, and likening

it to the feeling in a hard battle, when you see your enemy defeated, and blood flowing like a rivulet. This is classical Veera rasa.

6.कुलकु थारथिलीथा गम्भीरा, जाया विराट वीरा: His rough body itself is like a sharp weapon (because he is determined to win). Hail this complete

hero of the world.

7.विलयगागनथाला भिकारा, गरज्जद्धरा गारा: The hero is destructive in the air/sky as well (because he can leap at an enemy from a great height). He can defeat the enemy (simply) with his fearsome roar of war.
