Agathiyar has been guiding many through the Nadi readings. For first time seekers he ask that they conduct atonements or parikaram to rid them of their past karmas. Once these are completed, he guides seekers further, advising, recommending, and in some cases directing and instructing them.
Similarly Agathiyar has advised my family and me on all facets of life through the numerous Nadi readings.

When my daughter seeked out Agathiyar for her health problems, Agathiyar besides mentioning other remedies, advised her to rinse her mouth with sesame oil. On searching the net, we realized that this age old practise was adopted in India since time immemorial. It is called Oil Pulling in modern times. From http://jezebel.com/the-oil-pulling-health-craze-works-just-not-in-the-w-1538252677 it is written that "When we improve oral health, we improve so many other things in the body". It is also mentioned in the post that "Oil pulling is a folk remedy that originated in India (and appears in an early text of Ayurvedic medicine, aka traditional Indian medicine, which is considered alternative medicine, the Charaka Samhita.)" It did address my daughters "irregular menstrual cycles" as listed as part of the benefits attained by doing this practice at http://www.healthy-holistic-living.com/10-health-benefits-oil-pulling.html
Agathiyar also told her to soak her feet and hands in rock salt solution, a technique to "cleanse our subtle system".
When Agathiyar told her to consume sesame seeds in any form, after she fractured her leg, we went back to Mr Google. We discovered that sesame seed has a high content of calcium, a much needed component in healing bones. The zinc in sesame seeds promotes bone health too.
When I had sinus congestion and antibiotics did not bring relief, my pharmacists recommended the NeilMed Sinus Rinse Starter Kit, a modern day neti pot and salt (USP grade [purity level 99% or higher] sodium chloride and sodium bicarbonate mixture to be dissolved in warm water) to help flush the sinuses I was relieved immediately. I have since recommended many on the benefits of doing nasal cleaning too. See http://empoweredsustenance.com/himalayan-salt-benefits/
When I had to endure body pains for a long time, I seeked medical advice. But nothing was found to be wrong with me. I then seeked Agathiyar for an explanation. Agathiyar explained that after adhering to a strict regime of consuming satvic food and putting into practice various asanas and pranayama techniques, these had brought about significant changes in the energy level in my body resulting in the appearance of the aforesaid discomfort and ailment. Agathiyar instructed that I stop all forms of regime immediately. He asked that I consume Tripala in any form to bring back balance to the three Doshas namely Vata, Pitta and Kapha. Agathiyar too asked that I consume Amla or Nellikai (Indian Gooseberry) in any form. These brought relieve and cure.
When Surendaran Selvaratnam went for a Nadi reading a couple of days ago, he too was advised to stop performing all severe forms of tapas or austerities immediately.
Ananda Jyothiamma's health too has been regularly monitored personally by Agathiyar who has advised her on taking numerous Siddha preparations and medicines under his watchful eyes while performing tapas in seclusion and in his custody.
A devotee who frequented AVM, once told me he was undergoing ailments and pain result of certain practices and techniques. I told him to go back to his Guru or master. He told me his Guru himself was not in the state of mind to help him!
I received an email many years ago from someone in New Delhi. He was suffering from energy blockages. His many masters could not help him. After 8 years I emailed him again asking if he had recovered. The poor soul was still suffering!
Another person ended up at AVM to narrate his problem. His master had purposely placed a block in his practice! As a result he was suffering too.

I realized there is a need for a Guru, who not only initiates a student into a practice, but also brings to a stop that very practice once it has served its purpose. A Guru should also monitor the progress of his student and advise accordingly. The Guru too should have the knowledge to heal or clear blockages in the physical and psychic bodies and obstacles on the path of the student.
With Guru Purnima around the corner, lets pay gratitude to our Gurus who have been a beacon to us.
