Today is HH Govinda Damodara Swamigal’s Jayanthi. Please click here to read about this mahan.

Some of Swamigal’s devotees transcribed the experiences shared in audio files herehttp://valmikiramayanam.in/?page_id=2 and made them as an e-book last week to submit at His lotus feet on this occasion of His jayanthi mahotsavam.

Sri Ganapathi Subramanian, one of Swamiji’s close sishyas/devotees sent me this email. After I got that email, I wanted to post it immediately but after starting first few pages of the pdf document, I couldn’t close it without finishing…..It is not an exaggeration if I say that each page is a treasure of teachings from swamiji and packed with so many incidents of Mahaperiyava! three incidents to quote – (1) How Mahaperiyava suddenly would call Angarai Periyava as “vaango pongo” only during the days when swamigal is doing Bagavatha Upanyasam with the bhaavam of swamigal as Sukar (2) Page #64, the power of praying Mahaperiyava (3) Page #91 – Periyava’s certificate on definitions..I am at page #91 – will finish this e-book in the next 20 mts for sure. Absolute treasure for all of us to read and know about (1) Mahaperiyava (2) Mooka Pancha Shati (3) Ramayanam (4) Value of life (5) Siva Sar (6) Mayavaram Periyava. Yet another time that I had a similar experience of not able to put a book down was when I was reading “Select verses from Viveka Choodamani” By Swami Dayananda Saraswathi Swamigal.
All Tamil readers – Do not miss to read this e-book.
For non-Tamil readers – I hope someone could translate this..This has 122 pages…not going to be easy to do the translation. If Swamigal wishes, it might happen too…
Thank you Ganapathi for sending this treasure….
On this auspicious day, let us do our namaskaram to HH Damodara Swamigal to bless with Rama bakthi, ambal bakthi and Periyava/Sar bakthi.
Please note that Sri Ganapathi Subramanian is giving audio lecture on Saturday/Sunday (4.30 PM IST) on Valmiki Ramayanam on Periyava Radio. Do not miss!
Hara Hara Sankara Jaya Jaya Sankara!
