PARAMAPATHA VAASAM

          Due to Kali?s vengeance, Swami?s second son-in-law reached Acharyan?s thiruvadi on the last day of the Sashtyapthapoorthi celebrations. This unfortunate incident was a big blow to Swami. After this, Swami started facing various difficulties in his life.

            Inspite of all this, Swami stood firm.  His radiance of knowledge never dwindled. Even though Swami is a very tender hearted person, he had a will power of iron. He never wilted under sorrow or pain. His heart withstood everything and surged ahead. However, Swami?s thirumeni could not handle the stress. Disabilities started overtaking our Swami and over a period of five to six years, his health deteriorated greatly. Even then he did not give up his practices. With extreme difficulties he still gave kalapshepams. Swami took grantha kalapshepam as the medicine for his illness. He used to conduct Geetha Bhashyam and Sri Bhashyam lectures in his own thirumalikaai even during his last days.

            Swami?s son Ramanujan stayed near him all the time. Swami?s devigal, in spite of her own illness attended to Swami?s needs. Dr. Rama Iyengar of Bangalore left his practices and stayed in Mylapore to take care of our Swami. However, our Swami lost his mobility and was bed-ridden. On 07/08/1971, Saturday morning 4.30 a.m. our Swami reached Acharyan thiruvadi.

            The sun of knowledge settled in the depths of ocean. A great soul of gnana, bhakti and vairagyam left this world to continue kainkaryam to Divya Dhampathis along with all the Acharyans and Nithyasooris in Paramapadam. Let us all remember the glories of our Swami and strive to realize his dreams.
