Dr Krishnan, a friend, Siddha physician, and astrologer, told me in the nineties, after looking at my horoscope, that I shall write extensively, which was not my cup of tea back then. Agathiyar, later in a Nadi reading, my twelfth, on 17.2.2007, said the same. Bhirugumunivar, in my 15th Nadi reading on 10.3.2007, gave some tips on performing prayers and the kind of food to consume. And they all spoke about the benefits of doing Puja and charity. Agathiyar mentions in my 26th Nadi reading on 25.4.2008 that I had received a treasure from Tavayogi by way of Asanas and Pranayama that he taught me and a handful of others. Watching Tavayogi do them back then, I was surprised by the volume of air that he could take in and belt out, compared to the shallow breathing of ours. After some time of practice, I too could do it and began to see its effects. I saw the increase in the capacity of my lungs to take in a larger volume of air than usual and subsequently take in a larger quantity of Prana that brought me to a heightened state where I feared my body would explode. It was beautiful, though. I was told to stop the practice when I succumbed to a severe backache back in 2010 by Agathiyar. In March 2020, he asked me to resume doing it. After 12 years, Agathiyar brings us back to revisit these techniques, asking both me and the others who frequent my Agathiyar Vanam Malaysia (AVM) to put them into practice. Agathiyar reiterates again that these practices are a treasure.
In my 27th Nadi reading 27 by Pathanjali on 18.5.2008, he spoke about Puja, meditation (Tavam), and Yoga (Yogam), and how it could overcome one's Karma. He revealed his Yoga. He asked me to continue the Asana and Pranayama practices and prayers too. He advised me on the kind of food to consume. He asked that I stay on this path. He instructed me to spread the teachings of the Siddhas.
Agathiyar in my 30th Nadi reading on 30.9.2008, revealed the significance of breath and declared that both Lord Vinayagar and Gautama Buddha are exponents in Pranayama.
In the 31st Nadi reading 31 on 8.12.2008, Agathiyar reveals that he had directed Mr Sundara Arumugam to provide the space to house him in the Jegathguru Sri Raghavendra Mritiga Brindavanam Kinta that Mr Arumugam was building for Sri Raghavendra Swami in Ipoh. But over the years, I guess he got fond of us and stayed in our home, for he had another devotee purchase and place his statue at the Brindavanam. Agathiyar stayed put and is with his other half, Lobama, in my home.
On 8.1.2009, in my 32nd Nadi reading, Agathiyar mentioned that since I had the desire to set up a Peedham for him (on the onset of his request in my very first reading in 2002), he had set the ball rolling. He gave specific instructions on the process and procedure to have his statue made. It had to be in the image that of Agathiyar at Agasthiyampalli in Vedharanyam. He specified how, where, and when his statue should be made and mentioned the rituals that needed to be done before he goes to the Jegathguru Sri Raghavendra Mrithiga Brindavan Kinta. He also says that he will be at my home before he is moved to Ipoh. He also instructs me to accept donations from devotees towards the cost of making his statue and building his Peedham. He reveals that he shall fulfill the prayers of devotees who seek him out for assistance. All they needed to do was light up a lamp.
In the 33rd Nadi reading 33 on 27.8.2009, and the 38 on 12.7.2010, Agathiyar asked that I stay on his path and spread his teachings through all available means and mediums. He reveals a breathing technique and again in the 37th Nadi reading on 3.4.2010.
In the 39th Nadi reading on 9.8.2010, Agathiyar said that he shall open his eyes in his statue and create other miracles too. This he performed many years on in 2013.
When the pain came on in the lower back, Agathiyar in the 43rd Nadi reading on 26.11.2011, recommended a couple of Siddha medicines and advocated certain prayers. In the next reading on 16.1.2012, he instructed certain practices and recommended certain Siddha medicines.
Agathiyar in the 45th Nadi reading on 26.4.2012, countered all the negative attacks in social media on the Nadi being manipulated by Nadi readers taking our thumbprint and drawing out our horoscope and gathering information from us through the questions they place before us and arriving at a bogus Nadi reading by providing a Nadi reading for my wife without having her present nor asking for her thumbprint. Even the Nadi reader was equally surprised and astonished. Going in purportedly for a reading for me after being called over, Agathiyar reveals my wife's Nadi.
In the next Nadi Reading on 15.2.2013, Agathiyar hints that I do not need to consult the Nadi anymore. What we did not know then was that he would come to address us personally through his devotees in the future.
Between the years 2014 and 2016, Agathiyar in the Nadi readings spoke about the lifestreams of the Puja from AVM that I had started doing, on the requests of Jnana Jhothiamma who wanted to follow it from the USA. He spoke about my blog and my YouTube channel. He spoke about how Siddha Heartbeat has served in bringing many the knowledge of the Siddhas. He spoke about my intent in taking early retirement and acknowledged that this was the right move.
These sharings are not to boost my ego or to make an impression or a statement that I and all those who came along with me on this journey are special in the eyes of the divine. We are neither special nor are we the apple of the eye of Agathiyar. He loves everyone equally. It is just that we came to him earlier. Others will come to him in good time. The idea of sharing them is to make known to readers how simple it is to get the grace of the Siddhas by way of worship to them. What was required of us was just attending to their worship; they took care of the rest, including our inner spiritual development and advancement, and the family too. One's experience will kindle another to travel the way. That is all we are doing here. To make progress, each one has to put in the effort. The Siddhas promised a better future and a silver lining, both in the materialistic and spiritual world and sense.
