Smt Saraswathi mami is a very popular person in the facebook world among Kanchi Matam devotees for quite some years. Mami comes from a very orthodox, vaidheeka family – extremely conversant with acharam, anushtanam and great knowledge in Sanskrit. At 70+ mami has been writing articles on periyava, posting slokas, meanings, telling greatness about Srividya upasanai, guiding youngsters etc. Great energy level for her age! I talk to mami whenever possible – she gave me some advices on devi worship etc. Not just me – so many folks talk to her daily 🙂 She has kindness to the core – she treats all of us as her sons! Isn’t it the sign of true Devi Upasaki and Periyava devotee?!
I have been trying to get her experience captured in an interview format. It took so long to get it done. Mami has been in Dallas for the past few months and leaving for Chennai in few days. Thanks to mami and the team that did this interview…
Mami, known to her devi worship etc, in this interview talks not only about Mahaperiyava but also about devi related experiences etc.
Here are some of the ebooks mami has written/compiled. Among these, I am particularly interested in “Sinthanaikku Sila”, a phenomenal collection that talks about practices that we used to to 100 years back by our elders that is almost forgotten in today’s world. It is a great book for men and women to read and see the significance and follow wherever possible. Our elders had reasons for doing few things – we simply can’t understand. Although mami is proficient enough in English, she still chooses Tamil as she finds it more comfortable with it. So non-tamil users, please excuse.
