WE ARE BUT ONLY A TINY SPECK IN THE WHOLE WIDE UNIVERSE

JNANA JYOTHIAMMA VISITS MALAYSIA AGAIN

Jnana Jyothiamma, the blessed child of Agathiyar, daughter of a cardiologist in the Army Medical Corps, is coming again to our home soon. We are blessed to receive her at our home. She has the grace of Agathiyar. Agathiyar has shown numerous miracles through her. 

The last time she was in Malaysia was in October of 2013. While in Malaysia, she was called to Jeganatha Swamigal's samadhi in Tapah and Paamban Swamigal - Mayuranathar temple in Dengkil. We at Agathiyar Vanam held prayers almost everyday during her stay then. During her stay with us, Agathiyar most graciously opened his eyes to bless all those present during libation or abhisegam. Let me walk you through her amazing journey of discovery of Agathiyar and the Siddhas.

Jnana Jyothiamma, who was born in Kerala and had migrated to the USA, made a pilgrimage to Kallar in 2011 that was to change her course of life drastically and dramatically. While at Kallar, without her least expectation Agathiyar through Tavayogi Thangarasan Adigal initiated her and later delivered her very first and only Jeeva Nadi revelation. Hence started a trail of miracles, filled with amazement and astonishment till the present day.

Her tale is to be told for it is a magnificent one. Her journey on this path of realization needs to told for it is a rare one. Jnana Jyothiamma used to share many hours with me on SKYPE even before she made that fulfilling journey to Kallar. Her yearning for Agathiyar grew from day to day. Her wish to go to Kallar was fulfilled when there was a calling within her. Jnana Jyothiamma had planned to spend six months at Tavayogi’s Ashram but was made to return to the USA only after a couple of weeks, missing the Annual Guru Puja and Jayanthi celebrations. Nevertheless she returned after a year to participate in the festivities.

At the Sarva Dosa Nivaarana Maha Yagam at Kallar
After a short stay at Karamadai, Dr Ram Supramaniam and Jnana Jyothiamma make a pilgrimage to Ambasamudram, Papanasam and Kalyana Theertam. Agathiyar shows a marvelous spectacle of light and reveals his presence to Jnana Jyothiamma and Dr Ram Subramaniam at Kalyana Theertam. Words would not describe faithfully this majestic effulgence of lights posted at https://apps.facebook.com/tripwow/ta-075a-2e7e-ece1?fg=1.

At Kalyana Theertam


Vengadesh Swami who had served Sadhu Krishnaveni Amma of Kalyana Theertam for 25 years till her last days, and other devotees of Sadhu Krishnaveni Amma bring Jnana Jyothiamma along to the jungles of Kalahasti to perform a Yagna at the strike of midnight.

At Srikalahasti
Lord Murugan provides for her to be in solitude in Palani, beginning 7 March 2013, through his devotee, Balakrishnan Swamy Menon before Agathiyar instructs her to move to Kothaiyar.

At Palani
Back at Chennai, Jnana Jyothiamma is called to Vadalur with Mathi Vanan accompanying her. She returned to Chennai, now even more determined to spread the word of God after having received Ramalinga Adigal's grace.

At Sathya Gnana Sabai Vadalur
After Kallar, Karamadai, Ambasamudram, Papanasam, Kalyana Theertam, Srikalahasti, Palani, Kothaiyar and Vadalur she was in isolation as per Agathiyar's directive.

Jnana Jyothiamma pays her respect at Supramania Swami's samadhi and begins a massive annadhanam program at Thiruvannamalai with the blessing of the Siddhas. At the end of the annadhanam circuit she is blessed by Ramalinga Adigal. Later that day she greets us upon arrival at Trichy. After stopping over at Thiruvanaikaval and Sivanmalai we head for Kallar to pay our respects to Tavayogi Thangarasan Adigal and Mataji Sarojini Ammaiyaar.

She was also mysteriously summoned to the Nattadresswarar Temple in the midst of the Kaveri River at Kangayapalaiyam near Erode where more mysterious events take place. She continues to Swamimalai and Agasthiyampalli near Vedaranyam.

In Chennai, she used to frequent Panchesti temple where Agathiyar again shows his presence again.

Its sheer joy and bliss for us in Malaysia, who have been following her spiritual progress. We are blessed to be a witness to the many miracles that Agathiyar, Ramalinga Adigal and the Siddhas have staged and delivered through Jnana Jyothiamma.
