we’re big devotees of Maha Periyavaa and were overjoyed by His visit. One day the village folk and devotees were sitting around Periyava and chanting ‘Jaya Jaya Sankara! Hara Hara Sankara!’, and there came the chanting of ‘Govinda…Govinda’ from a distance. Hearing this,
enquired, “Where does this Govinda chanting come from?”
Nearby, there is a hill by name ‘Paalamalai’. There is a temple on top of the hill called ‘Sri Siddheswarar Temple’. People who go there for darshan keep chanting the ‘Govinda’ nama while climbing the hill. It is about
Nearby, there is a hill by name ‘Paalamalai’. There is a temple on top of the hill called ‘Sri Siddheswarar Temple’. People who go there for darshan keep chanting the ‘Govinda’ nama while climbing the hill. It is about
twelve miles (about 20 km) replied the elders. Maha Periyava was extremely happy on hearing this and said, “Govinda chanting for the darshan of Eswara? I too want to have darshan of Sri Siddheswara” Devotees were concerned that it would be difficult for Him to climb 12 miles and
hesitated. But Periyava Maha Periyava started without any hesitation. Sri Sundara Reddiar organised a group of persons under one Perumal Gounder, to guide and take Him (Who guides and leads us!) to the temple. Periyava climbed the 12 miles, had darshan of Sri Siddheswarar. Then
He said, “One day, a lone devotee will build a temple for this ‘Swami’ with his own money.” Maha Periyava’s words came true in the year 1990, after 62 years! A devotee from the North (Sethji) came to this place for having darshan of Sri Siddheswarar. What the Eswara ordained for
him, no one knows, but he arranged to build the temple and conduct the Kumbabhishekham also!
In olden days, a king who was ruling this part wanted to gift something to his citizens who have paid their taxes in full. He called his minister and told him, “Throw money in the water”

What did the intelligent minister do? He built two dams across the river. This made the land fertile. And consequently, the place also prospered. When Maha Periyava was staying in Nerunjippettai, water flowed between the dams so forcefully that big stones were carried away in
large numbers. Periyava noticed one Perumal Vigraha in that!!! He asked the elders, “Do you know anything about this?” The villagers replied that they had heard a story in which the king gave six acres of land to ‘Venkata Perumal’. Periyava then pointed to a place and said,
“There is treasure at the bottom!” But the villagers did not understand its meaning and why Periyava uttered those words. After many years, the Government decided to produce electricity using the water in the Mettur dam. When engineers excavated the place, they had to move the
Perumal statue. They moved it aside carefully and dug the earth for a depth of 25 feet for foundation work. Then the treasure, which Maha Periyava was mentioning that day showed up! First, they got a Hanuman statue, then one by one, Sri Rama, Sita Devi and many others. Astonished
at what they got, Sri Sundaram Reddiar and other elders, loaded the statues in a tempo van and proceeded to Kancheepuram. They showed the statues to Maha Periyava and sought His blessings for building a temple, using those statues. Maha Periyava readily blessed them and said,
“Start immediately! It should be done fast!” When they were about to leave for their village, Periyava called them back. They were thrilled when He asked them, “When I went to Sri Siddheswarar temple, one Perumal Gounder came to guide me and take me there. “How is he? Is he well?
Thrilled because Periyava remembered the poor person by his name and asked about his welfare after a gap of 72 years! What love! What benevolence! Gounder is well; he is now 95, replied the devotees. Periyava pointed at some new clothes kept in a brass plate in front of Him, and
told them, “Take these clothes and give them to Gounder! Convey my kind enquiries to him!”
What a Bhagyavan, Gounder is!thought the devotees from the village! By what other name than ‘Divine Love’ one can call this? Love that shows up for a person, who, somewhere, sometime, had

guided and taken Him to a temple!
