PMI Stories Episode Twelve: PMI: thy name, perfection

Welcome to episode twelve of the PMI stories, in which, Sri T R Rajamani recalls how Mani Iyer used to strive for perfection both while teaching as well as his own practice methods. The episode includes several though provoking witty view points of Sri PMI.
Some parts of this episode are academic in nature, and might trigger few thoughts for musicians.

This is an amazing series of stories on the great Palghat Mani Iyer. Would love to see one on PMI's relationship with and thoughts on his stellar contemporary Pazhani Subramania Pillai.

Am glad, Rajamani mama cleared out this "Chatusra Thisram" thing thats been going around like a menace these days. People these days just get away with everything that they play, in the name of "Poetic license"!!!!
