  1. This is the first time I heard about kannadasan wonderful blessings from mahaperiava.what to say about it. Dayanandan

  2. நமக்கு தெரியாத இன்னும் எத்தனை அற்புதங்களோ? பார்க்கப்போனால் ஒவ்வொருவர் வாழ்விலும் மகாபெரியவா விளையாடி இருக்கிறார் என்று தோன்றுகிறது. படிக்கும் பேறு கிடைத்திருக்கிறது நமக்கு. மகாபெரியவா திருவடிகள் சரணம்.

  3. tears are rolling down.
    Every era there is a mahaan who redeems the ordinary. How fortunate is Sri Kannadasan, and how gracious and loving is Periyavaa.
    When will we become vessels to receive his grace?

    1. Tears started flowing from my eyes on reading this episode of Mahaswamigal that too His Karunaamirtham on an atheist like Kannadasn which reulted in his transformation.

  4. Great Article. I am reading “deivathin Kural’. After reading the section called ‘Naamthaan Swami’.
    “Every living creature believes in something. There cannot be anyone who don’t believe in anything, be it tiny simple things, or fellow beings or nature. They also firmly say that they believe in themselves. Fortunately it coincides with our philosophy which states that ‘God is everywhere’ including one’s self. So, they (Aethists) are also associated with the ultimate someway or the other. “

  5. Really wonderful to read this. I am also reading this incident for the first time. The transformation of Kannadasan from being a Naasthikaa to full fledged Asthikaa, who later was to write “ArthamuLLa Hindhu Matham” is a miracle done by Maha Periyava and so is saving his life. The quotes of Maha Periyava and Kannadasan mentioned are like reading Thiruvaachagam and Thayumaanavar PaadalgaL. Much blessed to read this. Jaya Jaya Shankara, Hara Hara Shankara! Maha PeriyavaL ThiruvadigaLee CharaNam!

  6. Sri Maha Periyavalin karunai ullam kandu thigaikkiren. Trikaala Gnani aakiya avarukka theriyathu yaar eppadi pattavar enru. Vibuthi prasadam koduthvudaneye Kannadasan uyir pizhaithu vanthar enrum sollalam. Allathu Arthamulla Indu Matham enra bookei i avar than ezhuthavendum ena peroyaval ninaithathinal pizhaithu vanthu irukkavendum. Ellam avar thiruvilayadal. Jaya Jaya Sankara.

  7. kannadasan nathigana nadithavar. Maha Periayava ariyathatha. Innum niraya nathigana nadippavargaly Maha Periyava parthukkanum

  8. First time, I am hearing or reading this. Really moving. The accident seems to have happened for the poet to get His Blessings to recover also from atheism in a way. All His making. Ram

  11. இந்த நிகழ்ச்சியை இப்பொழுதுதான் முதலில் படிக்கிறேன். அற்புதம்! ஒவ்வொரு நாஸ்திகருடைய வாழ்க்கையையும் ஆராய்ந்தால் இதுபோன்ற ஒரு சம்பவம் அவருடைய வாழ்க்கைத் தடத்தையே நல்வழிக்கு மாற்றி அமைத்திருப்பதை அறியலாம். நன்றி!

  12. Periyava Karunaiku ellaiye illai.

    Periyava brought out the “arthamulla indu madham” from kannadasan.
