When Agathiyar used to say so many things at one go, I would find it difficult to remember them. We are lucky if we are prepared ahead and have our handphones with us to record the conversations. But at times, we are caught off guard. At other times, he asks us not to record and put away the handphones. Once, when I told him that I had difficulty remembering all that he said, he asked me to connect with Prapanjam. Then I shall know it all, he added. Now I understand how Supramania Swami, my first guru, must have connected to her and delivered the messages that flowed as does Mother Ganga from Lord Siva's tresses, as I sat with him for five solid hours at his village home upon arriving to know my daughter's future. My chauffeur, Deventhiran, brought me to him when I relayed my wife's wish to have our daughters' horoscope charted and written in India. Swami was Deventhiran's uncle. Deventhiran replaced Raji, who was supposed to drive me around. Raji had come down with a fever on the 11th hour. See the divine's play? Swami did not chart my daughter's horoscope. Instead, he spoke about my coming there and things that Agathiyar told me in my Nadi reading. None of this was made known to him. How could he have known if he had not connected with the Prapanjam and tapped into her? He knew when he would leave this world too. When I was there the second time in 2005 he told me he would live until 76. His son found his diary after his passing. He had written the exact date of his departure.
Of late, Agathiyar spoke only about Prapanjam, telling us that he was her. Ramalinga Adigal, coming each time, helped us connect with her by asking us to extend our arms and reach out to her, like an antenna. He himself would go into a state of bliss, laughter, and ecstasy, weeping and crying his heart out. We would have to hold on to the devotee through whom he comes, restraining him for fear of his lifting off the ground. Could the many instances that I went into a similar state be that of connecting with her at the temples I visited and during puja at my home? Finally, in asking me to send him to the homes of his devotees after the lockdown was lifted, and as I did not in any way object but instead had all his belongings packed and ready for him to say the word as to whose home he had chosen to go, he told me that after his murthy or bronze statue left my home, Prapanjam shall take its place. Today, Prapanjam, who created, sustains, and provides for us, has come down to shower us in all manner. We are indeed blessed.
