KALAKAD THOTHATHRI VADHYAR ( 9 )

                                                      KALAKAD THOTHATHRI VADHYAR ( 9 )

                                       During another visit  of the   two Swamijees  to Kalakad , they visited the nearby   Singikulam, a suburb of Kalakad  just   8 kilometres away. At a particular time  the Swamiji Sri Abhinava vidhya theerthar was looking  at the moutain  of Kalakad  range /  He was observing  the pleasant sight of  a white bright  object  in the form  of  a well knit garland , at the centre  of  a big rock ,  beautifying the entire  mountain. He just asked KTV what it was. KTV gave a vivid explanation ,saying that  it is  a falls  in the form of  a garland  which  is  visible  as a full garland  during  rainy seasons adding to the natural  beauty of Kalakad. Approach is also  very difficult  because of  1) steep rocky place and  2) the Kalakad forest  range  consists of  wild life sanctuary.  .This was followed by the following episode.    .S   was continuosly looking at KTV  for a while. Then  S asked  KTV  what  he was  thinking at that time. KTV replied  piously '  how do I know  what you are thinking ? "   S continues "  I am  thinking of you only "

 K T V  ' What are you  thinking   about me  " 

S   "" From  my reading  of your  face , I conclude that during your previous life  you should have been the king of  some rajya ,when besides ruling  as a good king  you had involved  in Anmeekam.That is why you  are born now in a respected Vedic family of  great traditions.Even today you are able to dominate like a kshathriya " On hearing  this , KTV  just prostrated  brfore  S  seeking His blessings.During yet another visit of Swamijees ,during one of His   anugraha bhashanam ,the senior swamiji openly declared in public that  He was having a special  place in His heart.for Kalakad Thothathri Sasthrigal,, reason being  " for him words come from heart , where as in general for people words  escape  from lips "  This observsation of Swamiji  was not received  in proper sense by a few persons.After the return  of Swamiji some  of the young turks  began tu murmer.,who became jealous of him in the long run.

                                               This jealousy  led some section    of the community try to  reduce  the importance of  KTV  in the  affairs of the community,  with the help of money power  they were having. Once  the Swamijees  had a long  programme at the village  of Kallidaikurichi for about 15  days  perform  Adhirudra Homam, Chanti Homam and allied Pujas  and  return to Shringeri. after that.  .KTV also had  been invited for all these activities. In the mean time  some  of these jealous  people wanted  to invite the Swamijees to Kalakad  without the help of KTV and in this connection  they went to Kallidaikurichi, met Swamijees and invited them to Kalakad  without the knowledge of KTV.. The senior Pontiff felt some thing fishy . He accepted the invitation   On the day of visit  The Swamijee took KTV also along with him in His own car. When the car  stopped at the spot  of reception, those  people saw KTV  getting down from Swamiji's car .They did not know what to do . As usual it was only KTV who did all the formalities in receiving Him and other allied  activities. The Swamijees stayed for a couple of hours because it was only an unscheduled  visit .and returned to Kallidaikurichi , taking KTV  also.

THOTHATHRI  VADHYAR  (  31  )                                          KTVused to forget his body pain  which he had developed on these days, at the time of reading  Bahagavadgita or Narayaneeyam by Usha in the evenings.One day KTV asked her whether he is like what Gita expects a man to be.She politely answered that he is almost like what is mentioned in Gita except for one thing. In Gita ,anger is never advocated.But he replied that  anger is some times justified   when you are absolutely convinced  that the opposite party is commiting a serious unforgivable mistake.
