Periyava was an incarnation of God Himself and He followed all the daily rituals and observed all the vrathams to make sure He set an example for all us.
Aippasi pooram is the Janma Nakshatram of Kamakshi Amman. On this day, Periyava does milk Abhishekam for Devi
Kamakshi. As usual on this day, as soon as Periyava woke up, He bathed and completed His daily rituals and Pooja. He did not drink a single drop of water until then.
Without further delay He started walking towards Kamakshi Amman temple. Periyava’s disciples carried milk and
Without further delay He started walking towards Kamakshi Amman temple. Periyava’s disciples carried milk and
Periyava carried milk in His wooden pot. It was 4 o’clock in the evening.
Periyava without drinking even a drop of water was walking to Kamakshi Amman temple. He could take Bhiksha only after returning to SriMatham after having darshan and seeing the abhishekam at the temple.

When He was walking towards the temple, a devotee fell at the feet of Periyava and touched His feet inadvertently. Periyava’s disciples were worried that Periyava would have to bathe again. One of the disciples of Periyava named Kannan was very disappointed. He did not want
Periyava to bathe again and do all the rituals again and stress His body. He wanted to tell Periyava that it was alright since anybody who was visiting the temple was already clean and pure. He asked Periyava not to bathe again, since it is said that just witnessing the people
who have come to temple during any festival in itself is a blessing. Also after having darshan, it was not necessary to bathe. Kannan was telling this loudly so that Periyava would listen to this. Periyava understood the disciple’s intention, but as soon as He reached Kamakshi
temple, He went directly to the temple pond. Periyava looked at Kannan and said,”It is very auspicious to bathe in the Kamakshi Amman temple tank on Thula month pooram. All of you bathe now”.

Why this snanam now? Was it because of the devotee touching Periyava’s feet or was it
because that was already ordained before. No one else other than Periyava could think of something like this tactfully.
Periyava would have already known about the devotee about to touch His feet and how Kannan will feel agitated about it. Only after bathing at the temple pond

did Periyava have darshan and did abhishekam for Kamakshi Amman.

After all this, He walked backed to SriMatham, did His daily evening rituals and then took bhiksha. The bhiksha for that day was only milk.
Maha Periyava never missed an opportunity to show us how to live an
exemplary life by following rituals (Aacharam).
