Lakshmi Sharath wrote an inside story for The Hindu some time back, in August of 2011. It was about the man who (says he) saw God.
Sri Balachander and Srimathi Santhi who with their lovely daughter, went back to India recently, chanced to meet Velu - the man who (says he) saw God - while vacationing at Valparai.
Velu told them he saw (Lord) Muruga in a column of light that spanned the earth and the sky. Read more from Lakshmi Sharath's article on Velu at http://www.thehindu.com/features/metroplus/travel/the-man-who-says-he-saw-god/article2372987.ece.
