Kalyan from Chennai asked me to write about my experience in reading the Jeeva Nadi. He wrote,
"I'm planning to release jeevanadi experience of individual person .could you please write your own experience & share with me."
He was intending to post these personal experiences of devotees of Agathiyar in the Ashram blog at http://www.agathiarkallar.org/. He has begun posting several messages from Agathiyar through the Nadi regarding the Ashram and its activities already.
I agreed immediately for I love to share these experiences.
Balamurugan from Malaysia had called Mataji Sarojini Ammaiyar of Kallar Ashram informing her of his intent in seeing the Jeeva Nadi in Tavayogi Thangarasan Adigal's possession when he comes over to India. But when his trip to India and Kallar was eventually finalised, Tavayogi and Mataji decided to come to Malaysia. Balamurugan was advised to continue with his itinerary and was told that Mataji would convince Tavayogi to bring over the Jeeva Nadi to Malaysia. They needed permission from Agathiyar first and the most compassionate father granted his permission and thus they brought along the Jeeva Nadi while touring Malaysia recently.
When a devotee from United Kingdom arrived in Malaysia and seeked to have his Nadi read, Tavayogi conducted prayers and again seeked permission from Agathiyar. Permission was granted and the devotee of Punjabi origin was the very first to have his reading. Agathiyar also agreed to bless his devotees in Malaysia daily through the Nadi. Hence devotees from as far as United Kingdom, Singapore and all around Malaysia heard their questions and doubts answered by Agathiyar through the Nadi.

I had seen the Kaanda Nadi once in 2002, traced and recovered based on an impression of my thumb given to the Nadi reader and accepting or negating a series of questions that was needed to jointly identify my relevant Nadi. After accepting Agathiyar and having started worship of the Siddhas, Agathiyar and the Siddhas blessed me with numerous Aasi Nadi readings.
When Tavayogi was blessed with the Jeeva Nadi and began to read it for the public, many devotees from Malaysia arrived at Kallar Ashram to have their readings too amidst others from India and other countries. I had not seen the Jeeva Nadi in possession of Tavayogi Thangarasan Adigal. When I told others that I had not read it, they were surprised.
And so when Tavayogi brought along the Nadi and had started reading it in Malaysia, I thought I should request for a reading too. Although I did not have any need or questions then, but again I thought, at least I would have the experience of having read the Jeeva Nadi and from one that was in my guru's possession.
After much deliberation, finally my wife and I decided to see the Nadi. Bala Chandran Gunasekaran who liaised with Mataji Sarojini Ammaiyar on the dates and appointments, slotted us for 3rd July 2016. The Nadi was read in the comfort and confines of Sri and Srimathi Balachander's residence in Bangsar. We stepped into the Balachander's Puja room where the reading was done, and paid our respects to Tavayogi and Mataji and of cause Agathiyar too and sat back to listen to Agathiyar speak live. As we were told to prepare ahead 5 questions my wife had put on her thinking cap and came up with these questions. We handed the piece of paper to Tavayogi who took a quick glance at it and immediately remarked, "Ungalukku yellam yetharkku mahgane kelvi, ninga yetharkku nadi paarkanum", saying why do you need (to prepare) questions and why do you need (to read) the Nadi?, adding that Agathiyar was already living with us and guiding us.

Anyway he began to read from the Nadi. He read casually, halting for several times and for several moments to enable Mataji to catch up on her transcribe of the reading.
After the initial kadavul valzhu or homage that Agathiyar pays to Erai, Agathiyar addressed us in beautiful Tamil that we could comprehend easily.
Agathiyar teased us saying that we had come to hear him under the pretext of seeking answers regarding our daughter although he knew that it was out of love to hear him speak that made us request for this reading.
My wife had not seen the Kaanda Nadi but was blessed to have a reading through one of the many Aasi Nadi for me. After that single reading without even her presence, now she was actually hearing Agathiyar speak through the Nadi in real time for the very first time. She had always wanted to know why she came to the Siddha path and Siddha worship for some time now. What better moment than this to ask the Maha Guru himself? That was her very first question to Agathiyar. Agathiyar explained patiently. In one of the many past births, we had lived as husband and wife too. We used to pick fruits in the hills of Kuttralam and serve them to Agathiyar residing at the back of the Kuttraleswar temple close to Somalingar, before leaving to sell these fruits at the entrance to the temple.
When she was in pain during labor and delivery she had called out to Agathiyar. She then delivered a daughter safely. At the age of 2, we would leave our daughter with Agathiyar and tend to our stall. My daughter would then lovingly feed Agathiyar (murthy) to his delight. She received Agathiyar's blessings then. Agathiyar revealed that our daughter of past birth, who had delighted Agathiyar, has taken birth as our child in the present day too.
My wife too was reunited with me now for serving Agathiyar together with me in the past birth. Since we were in poverty then, Agathiyar blessed us to be born in Malaysia, what he terms as Bhoga Naadu, to reap the benefits and merits of having served him with love in the past.
Agathiyar moves on to address the other questions: my wife's 3 year discomfort and ask that she continue treatment at the General Hospital. "All shall be fine", he assured; he addresses my sudden lower back pain that recurred just about the time Tavayogi arrived. He tells me that he would provide the necessary relief and cure. It's gone now just as mysteriously as it came back.
Agathiyar also addressed another question that had been bothering my wife and other women regarding women and worship and condoned her thoughts and actions.
Agathiyar goes on to bless us revealing that people will begin to turn up at AVM and they shall gain all good.
Agathiyar did not answer a couple of questions regarding our old folks and my daughter's education. We took it that all was fine hence reason for not addressing it.
Mataji who was patiently and intently taking a transcribe of the Nadi revelation, read out her notes to us, explaining it in simple terms with Tavayogi clarifying further.
Although I had heard Agathiyar speak 54 times before through the Nadi, it was again a blissful moment to cherish, sitting and listening to Agathiyar speak live through the Jeeva Nadi.
Even before we approached Agathiyar with these personal questions, Agathiyar had blessed us all at AVM by providing a reading at Agathiyar Vanam. I was told that Tavayogi would read a Pothu Vaasippu at AVM for all devotees of Agathiyar when he came around to my home after having initiated the Siddha Puja in the homes of other AVM family members. And so we were all assembled at AVM on 30 June 2016, to witness Tavayogi and Mataji conduct the Homam and Abhisegam and read the Nadi. Agathiyar asked us at AVM to continue doing charity and dharma. He asked that we spread his name throughout the world. He addressed several devotees and blessed others who were present.
