PERIAPURANAM

The Periapuranam is a Tamil devotional classic depicting the lives of 63 Saivite Saints. This book made a remarkable impression on Sri Bhagavan as a young boy. Speaking of four of the most famous Saivite Saints Sri Bhagavan once remarked, “The devotion of Sundaramurthy to the Lord is that of a friend, of Manikkavachakkar that of the beloved, of Appar that of a servant and Sambandar that of a son.”
