THE PROMISE 2

I guess I had promised back then in some birth to come back into the path after going astray and lead others too. If I had worshiped the Siddhas with my family coming together too, and later with youths whom Agathiyar sent over to my home, I would be grooming the kids this time around. 

Just as a devotee asked me why we need to praise the Siddhas, many years back, I can give many reasons to do so after arriving there.

For one, in coming to the Siddhas, they would show us our past Karma through the Kaanda Nadi, to begin working on. We could either live it through or take the necessary measures, which the Siddhas would come to show through Nadi readings that are accounts of our past lives and the deeds and sins we did. They would give us further readings through the Aasi Kaandam to follow and adhere to.

They shall then show us to our guru in the physical form, who will then bring us to the practices and adherence of disciplines needed to walk the phases of Kriyai and Yogam, to arrive at Gnanam. 

In carrying out Kriyai, we draw the bridge down for the Siddhas to visit us in our homes and begin the conversations. 

In carrying out Yogam, the inherent energy in us rises to meet that of the Siddhas and merge in the union of the JeevAtma with the ParamAtma. We become Jeevan Muktas or Spiritual Catalysts and turn towards bringing others to this state of bliss. 

With the dawning of Gnanam from within, he too shall become a Siddha.

Hence, the call comes when we are pretty much caught in the affairs of the world. The guru comes when we are ready to relinquish all our desires and wants. The Siddha comes when we are ready to do his work. They take us into their fold. We have a new role and purpose then. The lineage is kept alive. The path sees beings walking it. The flame is kept burning. 

THE PROMISE 1

I am back, readers. I had to summarize the path before I take a break. Since my purpose was to follow the path, live it, and eventually share the goodness, benefits, and reasons with readers to encourage them to take up the path as well, I will provide a brief summary.

Tavayogi Thangarasan Adigal was asked to start an Ashram cum temple for Agathiyar and the Siddhas after he came out of his long years of Tavam or austerities and wandering, and was asked to come to Malaysia in 2005, and spread the good word to us too, officiating Peedhams and taking the stage to address the audience. I was one of those who stood before him. When one Mr.Bala asked me the reason for meeting Tavayogi, I had no reason. I was just prompted to meet him after receiving a leaflet from the Nadi reader in 2002, which mentioned Tavayogi's intent to build a temple/ashram for Agathiyar, unlike the many who came to the Siddhas, according to Mr.Bala, with problems. Soon as I frequented the Peedham where he was staying during his duration and stay in Malaysia, and sat in the presence of Tavayogi, I saw the truth in Mr.Bala's words. Many indeed came with problems, some beyond our imagination. Tavayogi would listen patiently when they came before him with problems, some speaking for hours on end, and would point out that it was their past conduct and acts or Vinai or Karma acting on them now, and ask them to worship the Siddhas. 

As if to answer the questions and doubts I had about whether God was truly loving and compassionate, and the reason he had me take a long break, ending my home and temple worship, and all reading for 14 years, Agathiyar, called me to the worship of the Siddhas in my very first Nadi reading itself in 2002. He spoke about Karma and its action on us, enlightening me on why people suffer. He gave me remedies for my past Karma too. Agathiyar had the Nadi reader conduct a Siddha worship, pass me the booklet that carried the names of the Siddhas published by Tavayogi, and a painting of Agathiyar given by Sivabalan, who brought the reader in from India, starting me off on my journey of further discovery. Armed with these, I began my home puja. Agathiyar had me begin my home worship by reciting Lord Ganesha's mantra, and had me worship Lord Siva too, besides the worship of the Siddhas. I did as told. 

Hungry to know more about the Siddha worship, I knocked on the doors of numerous movements, Peedhams, and centers associated with Agathiyar, some existing since the eighties, but returned disappointed as none carried puja or worship, but instead held talks, did charity, and meditation. I turned to books on the Siddhas, which I went around looking for at the book stores. I continued my home puja, gathering more songs from these books and the net. 

Agathiyar then sent Tavayogi to our shores, where I met him in 2005. Although he asked that I frequent the Peedham that he came to officiate, Agathiyar had other plans for me. In a subsequent Nadi reading, Agathiyar asked that I get initiated by Tavayogi again and visit his ashram to learn further. I did as told. Thus, I came under his wings, shadow, and his mentorship. Thus began a wonderful relationship between a guru and a disciple that is still intact even after Tavayogi shed his mortal frame on 3 July 2018.

Then Agathiyar came as a bronze statue, in 2010, originally intending to go to the Sri Raghavendra Mritiga Brindavanam Kinta in Ipoh, which was being constructed, but decided to stay put in my home. He sent many youths to my home in 2013 to watch and participate in our puja at my home, which took on the name Agathiyar Vanam Malaysia (AVM). I came to know later, from the "Soul Contract Reading" of mine, that reaffirmed my purpose as that of  a Spiritual Catalyst, for them and others who followed.

In carrying out Puja and charity with these souls, we have come to fulfill Agathiyar's 5 tenets for mankind too, as Vashisht Vaid wrote in his blog at https://holysageagathiyar.com/ 

1. Agathiyar says that man has to first and foremost understand his purpose in taking birth. 

2. With his purpose known then, he should come to thank the divine creator or energy that brought forth his birth (through consultation with the lunar forefathers and their angelic hierarchies that co-exist with us down here). 

3. He asks that we then thank all the caretakers, both seen and unseen, in the present and the past. 

4. There arises then an obligation on our part to "dutifully aid and help, the ongoing evolution of all co-existing human beings." 

5. The final task is to extend this aid and help towards "the ongoing evolution of all co-existing beings and entities, existing upon the lower levels of the evolutionary ladder, dutifully supporting the manifested matrix or prapanjam." 

(Summarized from Vashisht Vaid's post on his blog https://holysageagathiyar.com/ )

Just as I thought, I could now take a break from it all, I remembered that I had called a gathering of children and intend to have them perform the rituals and sing the praise of the Siddhas on 1 May 2026. As I now need to bring these kids to his fold after having brought the youths earlier, so it looks like I shall be around for some time.

BYE

I guess whatever has to be shared and said has been shared and said in this blog. Maybe it is time to bid farewell - again. My story seems to be akin to the story of the boy who cried wolf, right? Till Agathiyar says otherwise, we shall take a break for now. It has been wonderful sharing so many things on this blog. Take care, everyone. 

THE HOME COMING

At AVM, we focused on the practical application of the teachings of the Siddhas rather than discussing the myths, legends, and stories that surround them. If it might be important to academicians and historians, Agathiyar told us that these were not important to us. Instead, they gave us the practices and methods to take up that one day would bring us to the state of a Siddha and that of Light. Now I understand why Lord Siva came in a dream in 1988 and had me bring the shutters down for some 14 years, on all my reading, home worship, temple worship, and the yoga practice that I picked up from these books, as a bachelor. He had me take on a new chapter in my life, that of a married man, bringing two souls into this world, and shouldering the responsibilities of raising a family. In 2002, coming through a Nadi reading, he had flipped open yet another new chapter in my life. Agathiyar called me to the worship of the Siddhas, which I did. He sent me two wonderful gurus.  Giving me rituals and practices, sending many over to my home that took on the name Agathiyar Vanam Malaysia (AVM), he brought down the shutters again in 2019, at the peak and height of our worship and charity drives. Having me let go of it all, and asking me to go within, having me stay in solitary most of the time, and letting me be myself, today, after 24 years walking the path, he has taken me into his fold. He tells me that I am one with them after having me drop even him. He brought me from Dvaita to Advaita, to the teachings of Adi Sankara. And what do you know, we only came to know recently from his Nadi reading that a soul that came as a kid back then and grew up watching and participating in our home puja all these years was Adi Sankara's disciple in a past birth. He is now in college. His parents, who were grazing cattle and goats in a past birth in Kutalam, used to deliver milk and serve Agathiyar. And so are the others who came by, souls who had served Agathiyar back in the past, as revealed in their Nadi readings. Another devotee who was a student of Agathiyar, but had offended the Muni, came back to him, too. Another devotee had ferried Mataji Sarojini Ammaiyar across the Kaveri in a coracle to witness Agathiyar inaugurate the Lingam that he built out of the sands of the river Kaveri at Nattadreewar. My daughter had served the fruits that my wife and I sold on the grounds of his temple at Papanasam to Agathiyar in a past birth. Another couple of devotees and I had been together in ashrams both in India and in Malaysia back in the past. Finally, Agathiyar reveals that we have known each other for crores of years. We have come home to him.

Hold on to One, Hold on Tight, and Hold till the End.

I had wondered why there is a Ganesha Murthi at Agathiyar's Sannadhi at the Kumbeswar temple? When I had mistakenly seen the Hindu Almanac and carried out Ganesha's Chaturthy a day late, Agathiyar in the Nadi praised me for seeing him and Ganesha as one and worshipping him as Ganesha, although a day late. Moments ago, I came across something I had posted earlier on Thursday, 15 February 2024.

Writing on Agathiyar's origin at https://holysageagathiyar.com/, Vashisht Vaid says that he was the very "Vital Radiant Consciousness of Adi Ganesha in a Human Form" that  Adi Param Shiva desired. There you have it.

Just as Tavayogi autographed my copy of his book "Andamum Pindamum," which, when translated, meant, "God lives in your heart, from where the journey starts and ends too," as Ganesha sits in on the start of a journey, or at the entrance of a temple, or is worshipped first before any ritual or undertaking is taken, I think it is sufficient to begin and end the worship with him. But instead, we briefly pay our respect to him and move on hurriedly to the other shrines and return home.

In talking to Mahin when he dropped by on Friday, we agreed among ourselves that it was sufficient to pray at Ganesha's shrine and return. We feel it is all within Ganesha. Saint Avvai and Saint Nakkiran, too, have sought Ganesha to reach that place or state of Gnanam. We are told in the Purana that while Lord Muruga shot off on his peacock seeking Gnanam, Ganesha opted to stay at the feet of their parents, Lord Siva and Parvathi. Muruga went to war later and brought Surapatman to his knees. To redeem his sins, he had to renounce it all and adorn the robe of a mendicant Supramaniar later, to seek Gnanam and Enlightenment and become Light or Jothi. Just as Muruga initially searched out there but Ganesha looked within we too search it out there failing to realize that it is all enclosed within us. But it all has to take place for a certain divine play to take place. 

Just as Dr. Bhani mentioned to us at a talk that a single song of saint Avvai carried three meanings at different stages of his life, first as a song of praise to Ganesha, then when he took up Siddha medicine, it was wholly about about medicine, and finally siiting at the feet of his guru Yogi Ramaiah he came to know that it was a song on Yogam, "The Tamil Guardian" posts at https://www.tamilguardian.com/content/introduction-auvaiyar%E2%80%99s-vinayagar-agaval, carried the following,

"Auvaiyar’s poem is a many-layered experience of philosophical concepts brought to life via devotional poetry. It begins with contemplation of the external form of God ... The Vinayagar Agaval swiftly moves beyond the contemplation of the feet to the adoration of the face and body of God. Auvaiyar now moves away from the contemplation of external form and the material universe into her metaphysical journey. The poetess explains further her experience of the physical yoga tradition, which is first mentioned in the circa 3000-year-old Rig Veda texts. She refers to the energy centers of the body and energy rivers (“Nadis”) such as the Ida and Pingala. She talks of awakening the “Kundalini” energy source... achieved through meditation and physical yoga, signifying spiritual awakening....leading to immortality and miraculous powers."

"The term Siddhanta is also connected to the term “Siddhi”, meaning miraculous gifts and so Siddhanta is the discipline of awakening these gifts. Hence the eight modes are thought to be the eight Siddhis or miraculous powers gained through the awakening of the Kundalini as described in the Tirumantiram text dated circa 500 AD. Auvaiyar’s poem remains in essence devotional, born out of her experience of the divine."

Layne Little too equates the song as above at https://www.alchemywebsite.com/vinayaga.html, 

"At first glance, the work seems conservative enough; as it begins with the traditional contemplation of the god from foot to crown. But it promptly veers off into the domain of the mystic as she invokes Ganesha as the embodiment of Turiya. Turiya, or "the Sleepless Sleep" is a state of deep yogic trance, where the aspirant sleeps to the illusionary and transient realm of gross sense phenomena and wakes to the infinitude of the inner realm."

Avvai too seems to bring us one cycle just like Tavayogi, for Avvai, having moved from Bakti to Yogam, ended the poem by coming back to Bakti, accrediting her advancement to Ganesha. Auvaiyar, throughout her Agaval, considered the wisdom, clarity, bliss, and eternal life she came to attain as gifts of Ganesha rather than admitting that she acquired or earned them. "This Bakti is a total surrender since Avvaiyar dedicates each and every step she passes in Yoga to Ganesha."

In https://truthdiveblog.wordpress.com/category/culturereligion/, we learn that, "Avvaiyar assigned everything to the Lord as if she had done nothing." 

When Kumarsamy Aiya of Anuvavi Ashram asked me if I was going places, I told him my search had ended. He applauded me and told me something that struck me as a statement of wisdom, which, when translated, meant, "Hold on to One, Hold on Tight, and Hold till the End."

If previously, we would jokingly ask, since we prayed to all the deities, which God would come to our aid in times of danger?, when a niece of mine who lost control of her car and landed in a ditch, walked out safe and sound except for some superficial injuries while the car was a total loss, the deity Karupanasamy coming through a devotee reveled that he, Goddess Kali and the soul of her late grandmother had saved her. When my late father, who only knew Lord Muruga, called out to him as a pack of wild dogs circled him while he took a pilgrimage to Palani from his hometown in Kilsevalpatti on foot, a bee circled and went into the ear of one of the dogs and stung it, sending all the rest running away. When Bala, just after a Nadi reading, rode his motorbike into a stationary lorry, Agathiyar, in a later Nadi reading, revealed that he was there to hold him from falling and sustaining injuries. I guess this is why each has an Ista Devata, or a guardian angel, or a favorite deity to whom they turn for all their needs. So stick with it. 

Thavathiru Rengaraja Desigar, in his book, "POTRINAL UNATHU VINAI AGALUM APPA", speaks about Agathiyar and his relationship with his guru Supramaniar (Lord Muruga)

Agathiyar met Supramaniar at Kodaikanal, where Supramaniar made him recall the past just as Mahavatar Babaji, coming to redeem Lahiri Mahasaya, showed him his past belongings, triggering a memory of his forgotten past. As promised in return for all his services in the earlier birth, Supramaniar taught Agathiyar the secrets of attaining the state of God or Erai. Agathiyar began by performing puja to Supramaniar. By way of devotion to Supramaniar, he began to realize that he had had the greatest gift, which was the human birth, which comes by very rarely. Through Supramaniar, he came to know himself and the divinity that resided in the physical body. He understood the very Nature that brought him forth and resided within him. With Supramaniar's guidance and blessings, Agathiyar relished the ambrosia or nectar that came about through his Tapas. This removed the seven veils to reveal the Light or Jhothi in him, hence attaining the body of Light. With this came Bliss, Siddhis, and the state of Deathless-ness. Agathiyar attained the five characteristics or Tanmai of Erai, namely Creation, Sustenance, Destruction, Veiling, and Showering Grace. Ramalinga Adigal, too, in his Arutpa, sings of a similar state that he had arrived at by the grace of his Lord.

I had written on Thursday, 2 April 2020, asking, "What would be Agathiyar's aspirations for us? Would I be wrong to say that he wants us to become a Siddha too? I believe this would be his wish for after calling us to his path, he led us through Sariyai, Kriyai, and in coming to Yogam, dissipated the knowledge and techniques, through gurus and upagurus, besides he and Ramalinga Adigal coming to lead us further on into Pranayama and meditation, refining the technique we had picked up, showing us the means to overcome difficulties and obstacles faced along the way. Ramalinga Adigal brings us hope and assurance, asking us to stick with Agathiyar, who he promises shall remove the curtain or veil that comes between God and us." Bhogar, in coming and seeing my allegiance to Agathiyar, told him that he wished he too had someone like me. Agathiyar, as he summoned Bhogar and Tirumoolar, I took a step backward, seeing these Siddhas converge at AVM. Agathiyar called me to step forward and back into the circle, bringing tears to my eyes, seeing their compassion and love. I am truly grateful to the Siddhas for accepting me into their fold. 

Indeed, he has come by asking me recently, "When are you coming into my fold? When are you to become a Siddha too?" After initially saying that he would make me a guru and immediately pulling back that offer, he told me that he would make me a Siddha instead. He asked further, "When are we to become One?" asking me to even drop my hold on him and let go of him too. 

After becoming a Siddha, Agathiyar spread the teachings. So did Agathiyar send Tavayogi to preach the path. I guess that is my purpose too, through these writings. This is how I can give back to them for all the grace and blessings showered on my family and me, and my friends.

OF COMRADES, SPIRITUAL CATALYST, UPAGURUS & GURUS ON THE PATH


In gathering, compiling, and editing the above video, I came to realize how each one of us had a role in assisting the other to grow spiritually. Just as there are mentors in the education sector and at our workplace who share their learnings and experience with their colleagues and subordinates, so too we, as followers of a path, have come to aid and assist each other. I was wondering why Supramania Swami asked me to do Tapas, telling me that only then would he rise in his "status". Later, Agathiyar tells me that through our Puja, Tapas, and speaking about Tavayogi, we helped him attain the state of Jothi. This came to me as a surprise and revelation. I understood that if disciples and followers gain something from their gurus, the gurus themselves, in return, are elevated too through this association. So it looks like we are all connected. Just as parents bring new souls into this world, these souls elevate the couple to the status of parents, and the parents then fix a marriage for their children and elevate them to become new parents. The gurus, too, do the same, never giving up in wanting to see their followers attain their state, too. Agathiyar finally asked me when I am going to come to his state of being, a Siddha? He told me that he had worked hard on me, putting in much effort, and always reminds me not to let him down. Just as the parent and teacher shed tears of joy seeing their children and students graduate in life and education, respectively, once we come under their wings and shadow, the guru too looks towards the day of graduation, where his student steps into his shoes. I guess this is what is known as taking a new birth. I guess I had been reborn again much earlier, too, when the Chinese Gods saved me, asking that my parents give me up for adoption to them back in 1959.

Looking back at my journey, it all falls into place. It was all written. I was only living each moment. What my father missed out when, after arriving at an ashram in India and serving the guru, his guru turned him away after some time, telling him that he had responsibilities back home in Malaysia. I guess I have come to continue. What Supramania Swami desired came into fruition when I came by to see his 40-year desire to build a temple take off, only to be grounded when a Siddha stepped before his kudil and asked him why, being a Gnani, he was stepping back into Bakti. We dropped the project immediately. Tavayogi, who, upon Agathiyar sending him to spread the Siddha teaching,  stepped onto our shores in 2004, coming as a stranger knowing no one here,  returned the following year to officiate a Peedham after a seeker desired to start one, tells us that he came this time around to teach Yogam, but no one took up. I did and earned his appraisal when my family and I visited his Ashram in 2013, and when he came the final time in 2016. I am deeply grateful for his kind words of appreciation and encouragement. 

So it was with the many seekers whom Agathiyar sent out to my home, which took the name of Agathiyar Vanam Malaysia (AVM) after their arrival. Although it seemed as if Agathiyar sent them over to watch and participate and later bring the puja and rituals into their individual homes and their family circles, and though Agathiyar later had us bring the puja into the corridors of the temples too, while they were here and at it, each soul brought out his or her talent in doing something, enhancing and beautifying each moment. If I had spoken about Dr. Stalin, Jnana Jothiamma, Bala Chandran, Mahindren, Suren, Jegan, Thayalan, and my family, and how my life was doctored, changed, and enhanced, in the above video, there are many more whom I have not forgotten.

If my parents showed me temple worship and home worship of deities, I took up from there, doing the same as a bachelor.  I have now come to realise that there was a reason why my name was missing from a list of new intakes to the job at the Public Works Department (PWD) after graduating in 1979. I was offered a job in the Ministry of Defense. Now I understand why the astrologer sitting on the five-foot way in front of the Sri Maha Mariamman temple in Jalan Bandar Kuala Lumpur back then in 1980, reading my palm and consulting the parrot, asked that I stay put in the present job when I eventually received the letter of appointment at PWD. It was fated that I had to meet certain people in my life. Then there was a 14-year gap that came in a timely manner, as I needed to let go of all that I had learned and grasped over the past 29 years. As it was deemed that I needed to start afresh, I was posted back to my HQ. I had to meet Mr Segaran, just before he left the office in 1994, to become a monk at Paramahansa Yogananda's Ranchi ashram in India. He passed me the saint's autobiography, a painting of Lord Siva, and some sound advice that elevated me in all manner both in my personal life and at the office. I had to meet Mr Sethu, who, at my office, in passing, gave me several cassettes carrying songs on the Arutpa, which made me go in search of anything and everything on Ramalinga Adigal. In 1996, Dr Krishnan, an astrologer who was introduced to me by Mr Sethu, spoke to me about the Siddhas and their Nadi that could reveal why my attempts at seeking spiritual solace and my practice of Yoga did not go the way I had wished them to and did not grant me the expected and desired results. As I did not know any nadi readers back then, I let it be. Then in 2002, one would wonder why another colleugue Muralitharan Saminathan, was newly transferred over. I had to meet him, too. He was to open up to me about his experience in reading his Nadi two years back. He renewed my interest in seeing the Nadi. He fixed an appointment for me. Before I knew it, I saw myself sitting before Agathiyar, who came in the Nadi. 

A year earlier, I saw myself sitting before my nephew Thayalan Arumugam, who dropped by my home to pass me a message and a mantra that came by way of Agathiyar, having networked with my nephew's Paramaguru Gopal Pillai, who came through a devotee. The Vasudeva Mantra came as a transmission of energy that flowed through my nephew momentarily. He had me chant it to pave the way to meet my guru. Agathiyar, too, in addressing himself in the Nadi as my Moola Guru, said that I shall meet my guru in physical form. I went on my maiden pilgrimage to India the following year, as directed by Agathiyar in the Nadi. There was a reason why my wife suggested that I chart our daughter's horoscope in India, just as I left home for the airport. There was a reason the appointed driver, Raji, took ill at the 11th hour, and Deventhiran replaced him. Consulting Deventhiran, he tells me that his uncle was an astrologer in Tiruvannamalai and brings me over. I met my guru, Supramania Swami, just as Agathiyar had hinted. He was the astrologer Deventhiran meant, too. 

There was a reason why the Nadi reader passed me a leaflet sourcing funds from one Thaai Veedu Thangarasan, who was building an ashram and temple for Agathiyar in Kallar, India, after the reading in 2002. There was a reason I kept the leaflet with me, too. There was a reason why my neighbor, Augustine, who dispatched the daily newspaper to homes back then, gave me the extra copies daily for that particular period of time in 2005. It carried the advertisement announcing the opening of a Peedham by one Tavayogi Thangarasan Adigal of Kallar Ashram. I called and went over to see if it was the same person. He sure was, and I met my second guru sent to our shores by Agathiyar to preach the path of the Siddhas. There was a reason we cornered him to teach us the Asanas and Pranayama practice he gave us in the home of my nephew on his later visit in 2007. He only told us later in 2016 that he had come back in 2007 to teach yoga. Sadly, no one picked it up, but seeing us gathered, he mentioned that the seed he sowed had germinated in our soil. I did, and I was unaware that the Kundalini had risen in me until Agathiyar, Pathanjali, Bhrigu, Bhogar, Tirumoolar, Karuvurar, Kagapunjandar came subsequently in the Nadi and spoke about the developments and gave me further practice and words of caution too. Henceforth, my life was not in my hands anymore, just as it was not before either.

I guess he picked this home too, just as he had picked my job back then in 1980. When a colleugue Roslan Mohd Isa, told me he was going over to Cheras to scout a new home to buy, he invited me too. I had no idea or intention to buy a house until then. Soon, my wife, daughter, and I were at the site of the housing project, but he never arrived. As those were the days when handphones were not around, I only came to know later at the office that his wife had picked another house that they had viewed elsewhere. We saw ourselves move into the new house. Shortly after, my boss came by and asked if there was anyone who wanted to volunteer to go back to the HQ. Since I had moved into my new house, I had to traverse some 45 kilometers both ways. I took up the offer to return to the HQ, although the job scope now was administrative and not engineering, as it was only 26 kilometers each way. It was a win-win situation, just like the job, my wife and family, and the house fell into my lap. Yes, Agathiyar later tells me that our daughters too had been with us in the past birth. 

So it is that everything happens for a reason. I am glad that the 15 potential maidens whom my sister saw for me to wed turned me down back then, for finally, I married someone that my family knew and grew up with. I wonder if anyone else would have dedicated her life to Agathiyar's cause, preparing the essentials for the puja, preparing food for the invitees, carrying out the puja, entertaining our visitors, and finally cleaning up the home. I am thankful to my two daughters, too, who, amid their schooling, took time to be with us in our endeavors. In compiling the video, only then did I realise the number of Pujas that we had carried out till now, looking at the announcement pieces of the live streaming of these Pujas that Dr. Stalin had done for AVM back then, amidst his student life in Russia.
