Well-timed silence has more eloquence than speech.

RAWAT explained:
Adheer : impatient
dheer originates from dheeraj/ dhairya (patience)
(*> Is 'A' a negative prefix?
Anna: (food)-grains (rice, wheat, corn, ....)
annapurNa: (with hard N as in ravana)
1. the goddess of abundance of grains
2. a lady whose grain stock is always full.
purN: total, absolute
thus, the way you used is not exact.
(*> So this time - missed. : (
But this expression was some time ago explained to me as 'the one that
provides plenty of food'. If something 'feeds the mind', can it not be
called like that?
And why is it sometimes written 'poorna' and sometimes 'purNa' ?
[sniff sniff...] ; )))
Thank you.
Anna.
