Adiyen swamy. Kambandasan swamy, adiyen’s koti namaskaram. Adiyen got reminded of Swamy suggesting in this thread to “pray to get close devotees association”. Adiyen must thank devareer for this word as adiyen has now got associated with some Bhagavatas families here in Sydney who all have prema bhakti bhavam towards our Swamy. Adiyen trying to practice living as per Swamy’s commands through the Bhagavatas here. Bhaktas are very helpful and kind with adiyen.
Here’s the miracle that happened before Vaikunta Ekadasi. Just that week, I was praying to Krishna that I want Bhagavata Sambandam. I went to kannan temple the day before Vaikunta Ekadasi and saw a Swamy with Sri Vaishnava lakshanam. Usually the temple is crowded with North Indian bhaktas only. I was witnessing the kannan’s night sayana arati and was eagerly waiting to initiate a conversation with this Swamy. But unfortunately, even before the arati finished, this Bhagavata & his family left the temple. Adiyen ran to the streets to find them and get their Sambandam. But unfortunately, I couldn’t find them as they left in their car. I asked Krishna, oh kanna what is this? I missed their association. A week before this incident, a maami in a whatsapp group sent a message where she invited bhaktas to her residence called “kannan kazhal” for Vaikunta Ekadasi night vigil. Adiyen sent my interest to join to that maami whom I never have seen before.
I was feeling bad to miss a Sri Vaishnava family’s Sambandam in the temple. But, next day when I went to Vaikunta Ekadasi night stay/vigil to this maami’s residence, to my best surprise, adiyen found that the maami family and the Swamy I met in the temple are the same. Their name: Shyama Swamy and Prem Swamy. Kannan sent adiyen to the residence of the same family I missed engaging with, the previous day. Adiyen explained this leelai of Perumal to them and they are all so very happy for the Sambandam. Adiyen left so happy regarding how kanna set this leela and my varutham due to not talking with them in the temple is rectified by him the next day itself. Adiyen was with them the entire night of Ekadasi and was immersed in Bhagavad vishyam. All glories to our Velukkudi Swamy ??
An another surprise, adiyen came to know that our Velukkudi Swamy visited their very same residence during Swamy’s Sydney pravachanam. Adiyen also a saw video of Swamy in kannan kazhal. Adiyen is so happy how our acharyar Swamy Ramanuja has connected dots from a long time ago and have sent adiyen to this bhagavata’s thirumaligai. The Bhagavata family also said that they only rarely go to this Krishnan temple and they went that day to pray to Krishna to send a Bhagavata to their place for Vaikunta Ekadasi and bhojanam. What a beautiful leela that I got selected out of all, in Sydney region, to go to their thirumaligai. Adiyen even thought the previous day while in temple that “I may be going to this bhagavata’s house tomorrow?” And myself said “that would be an awesome coincidence but that wouldn’t happen. Don’t think too much”.
Such a sweet leelai where I got Bhagavata Sambandam and they got a bhakta for Vaikunta Ekadasi. Adiyen now I’m close touch with them and already visited many times after this incident.
One more leela of Bhagavata Sambandam follows. Adiyen went to Sri Venkateswara temple in Sydney for Kudaravalli utsavam. After Vaikunta Ekadasi adiyen was internally questioning if there are any Bhagavata shishya from the same acharyar here in Sydney. Adiyen is waiting to undergo Panchasamskaram only in June/July when I go to SriRangam which is arranged by senior Kinchit volunteer as directed by our Swamy. But I was thinking will we have same shisya of Peria nambi shisya here. When I visited the above mentioned Bhagavata family, they enquired about my Samasrayanam situation. The maami and other Bhagavatas are shisya of Embar jeeyar swamy. The next day they kindly proposed adiyen if I can consider getting Samasrayanam from their acharyar in Srivilliputtur. What a great bhagyam for adiyen? But adiyen said let’s see how Perumal arranges this for adiyen. All acharyar’s are udayavar’s roopam. But ever since I read guru Paramparai and since I was told that I will be taken to peria nambi acharyar in Srirangam, adiyen developed so much love and Bhakti for peria nambi Swamy acharyar and thirumaligai in Srirangam where Swamy Ramanujar himself visited many times. All these were floating in adiyens mind and also thought “but do I have same acharya shisya in Sydney to develop more Bhakti for acharyar”. With this thought I went to Kudaravalli Akkaravadisal utsavam. When I told a Bhagavata that adiyen is waiting to reach peria nambi thirumaligai for Samasrayanam, that Bhagavata literally held my hand and dragged to one Bhagavata named Abi Andaal Swamy and said she’s the most purest and dedicated Sri Vaishnava in our community and she’s also a shisya of Peria nambi acharyar. Abi Swamy was literally beaming with so much joy and so did I to finally meet a shisya from same acharyar. Words cannot explain how I felt . All my doubts and questions vanished and udayavar reinstated adiyen that I would get peria nambi Swamy as my acharyar. I told this to Shyama Swamy who earlier suggested adiyen if I could get Samasrayanam from their acharyar if I didn’t develop any bhavam towards peria nambi thirumaligai. Shyama Swamy was very happy that I found Abi Swamy and asked adiyen to learn about acharyar from Abi swamy. Adiyen then introduced Abi Swamy to Shyama Swamy and we all have planned to perform a bhojan kainkaryam in the same temple in the month of April.
How wonderful are acharyar’s leelai? How wonderful is Perumal to take care of every single Bhagavata ? How beautifully they connected dots for adiyen? How beautifully Velukkudi Swamy’s mercy is getting Bhagavata Sambandam for adiyen?
After all this, adiyen’s memory went back to Kambandasan Swamy’s statement and wanted to let everyone know of these happenings.
Udayavarukku Jai
Velukkudi Swamyin malar padhangalukku Jai
Adiyen adiyen adiyenukku adiyen
All glories to Bhagavatas, all glories to Kambandasan Swamy ??
