Maha Periva’s Life History – Volume 7 Author’s Note Happy New Year 2014! Kanchi Maha Periva was one of the rarest spiritual fountains that poured forth the 'divine wisdom' from the Vedas. Browsing through his speeches, one can feel how nicely he explained the most intricate subjects in the simplest ways so that people can understand them easily. As we continue reading this Ebook series on Maha Periva’s life history, what appeals to many of us is Periva’s utter simplicity, open mind towards all, and an amazing depth of knowledge on a multitude of subjects. In his long Vijaya Yaatra (Victorious Travels) spanning about 21 years, Maha Periva covered over 5000 kms without using any modern transportation and talking to the people of India. Thus, he played a major role in promoting and sustaining Sanatana Dharma. Throughout his long travels across India, Maha Periva had stayed in numerous villages, By Subi Anna had ritual baths in the sacred rivers and prayed at the nearest temples. He was so highly respected that Maharajas, high government dignitaries, chief judges, wellknown scholars, the rich and the poor folks received him with great love and honors. In numerous places, Maha Periva spoke to the local people in their native language. He spoke on a wide range of subjects including Vedas, Vedanta, Puranas, Shastras, Sthala Puranas and others. Wherever he went, thousands of people were attracted to see him and hear his speeches. His communication skills were infinitely charming to pull people from all over the globe. Maha Periva inspired the people of those days and continues to inspire us even today with his life story.

Maha Periva’s Life History – Volume 7 By Subi Anna Chapter 16 More Events in Kashi During his camp in Kashi, Maha Periva initiated many holy activities. On February 16, 1935, Maha Periva visited the Kashi Sanga Veda Vidyalaya in Ram Ghat, a popular bathing ghat for pilgrims. Thousands of people including the Maharaja of Kashi and his family members had assembled there to have a darshan of Maha Periva. In honor of Maha Periva, the scholars and administrative officials of the Vidyalaya had composed ten slokas (verses) in Sanskrit. They made a presentation of these slokas to Maha Periva. The Maharaja of Kashi had personally written a Sanskrit essay in praise of Maha Periva. He signed this essay and presented it at the lotus feet of Maha Periva. Maha Periva examined the students of the Vidayalaya and blessed them. He felt immensely happy at the noble work of the Vidyalaya for sustaining Sanatana Dharma. He spoke on Veda Vyasa and the greatness of Adi Shankaracharya. On this day, Maha Periva installed the following pictures at the Sanga Veda Vidyalaya: • Picture of Sripadanarayanar brought by Kashi Maharaja from his palace. • Picture of Adi Sankara Bhagavatpada brought from the Sankara mutt at Hanuman Ghat as per Maha Periva’s instructions. Later, after Maha Periva’s return to the mutt, the Maharaja of Kashi installed a picture of Maha Periva in the Sanga Vidyalaya. All the three new pictures installed at the Vidyalaya were nicely decorated. © Copyrights reserved Kanchi Periva Forum – www.periva.proboards.com & www.periva.org 4

Maha Periva’s Life History – Volume 7 from the library of Kashi Maharaja and also books like Sivarahasyam, Anandalahiri, Sankaravijayam and many others. After a detailed scrutiny of these documents, they reached a conclusion that Kamakoti Peetam was indeed the Peetam of Sri Shankara Bagavatpada. In confirmation of this conclusion, they signed a document in the form of slokams and presented it to Maha Periva. Likewise, a few days earlier to the Kashi conference, over 130 pundits from Bengal met in Calcutta under the auspices of Bengal Brahmins Mahasabha. The pundits at this Calcutta conference too researched hundreds of scriptures related to Sri Shankara's Amnaaya Mutts and concluded that Kamakoti Peetam is really Adi Shankaracharya's Adisthana Peetam. By Subi Anna In order to personally present this conclusion of the Bengal Pundits to Maha Periva, two of their representatives namely Mahamahopadhyaya Sri Durgacharan Sanga Theethar and Sri. Damodara Das Khanna had arrived in Kashi on March 1, 1935. They met with Maha Periva at the town hall meeting and submitted their conclusion to him. They also invited Maha Periva to Bengal. Departure from Kashi After accepting facilitations from other organizations such as Brahamins Mahasabha, Varnashrama Swarajya Sangh, and South Indian groups, Maha Periva departed from Kashi to Gaya on March 20, 1935. Visit to Kastar Mahadev On April 2,1935, Maha Periva visited the pilgrim centre of Kastar Mahadev.

He told Maha Periva that in his younger days, he had the blessings of Kamakoti Peetam’s earlier Acharyas. Maha Periva visited the local Mahadev temple. On April 4, 1935, Maha Periva reached Surajpura. The King of Surajpura received Maha Periva with royal honors and performed ‘paada puja’ at his palace. Traveling through Kasipuri and Buxar, Maha Periva arrived in the city of Arrah on April 19. This historical city is in the state of Bihar, situated on the confluence of rivers of Ganges and Sone, about 130 miles from Kashi. The residents of Arrah had arranged a great welcome reception to Maha Periva. Many scholars came to have a darshan of Maha Periva. By Subi Anna Much to the delight of the local people, Maha Periva had easy conversations with them in Hindustani language. On Sunday, April 21, 1935, Maha Periva visited Koelwar, on the banks of river Sonabadra, popularly known as Sone. This river joins the Ganges west of Patna. Maha Periva had a dip in the Sone River. Knowing that the red stone representing Lord Vinayaka is found in the Sone River, Maha Periva picked up the Vinyaka stones from the river. These stones were later kept in the Mutt Puja. (Note: In the ancient tradition of 'Panchayatana' worship initiated by Sri Adi Shankaracharya, five rare stones each representing the five main deities are used in the Panchayatana Puja. Sun God Surya is represented by a transparent glass-like stone found in Vallam River in Tamil Nadu.

Patna was also the seat of the great Maurya and Gupta Empires. The Maharajas of Athwa and Amavan along with many prominent citizens of Patna received Maha Periva at the outskirts of the city. Seated on a high pedestal (Simhasana), Maha Periva gave darshan to several thousands of people. On behalf of the local citizens, welcome addresses were read out in both Sanskrit and Hindi.

He served as the president of the Bengal Brahmin Sabha. In response to an invitation from the Bengal Sabha, Maha Periva visited the Sabha’s office in Calcutta. In his welcome address in Sanskrit to Maha Periva, Pandit Panchanana Tharka included the following significant remarks: “The city of Calcutta in the Gauda Mandal is newly built. It does not seem to have any historical fame. On researching the ancient By Subi Anna treatise ‘Brihadsamhitai’ authored by ‘Varahamihirar,’ this region seems to have existed as sandy plains about 2500 years ago. Even after the Europeans settled here, this place did not have full facilities for human habitation. It seems that for a long time, the city was not really blessed by the visit of great mahans like you. We are indeed fortunate to receive you - the 68th Acharya of Sri Adi Sankara’s Kamakoti Peetam and Jagadguru. I had the opportunity to see and perform some research on “Siva Rahasyam” – a rare and ancient scripture carefully preserved in the library of Kashi Maharaja. In this scripture, it is mentioned that after establishing four Mutts – Dwaraka, Jagannath, Badrinath, and Sringeri – in four different directions, Sri Adi Sankara established for himself the “Sarvagna Mutt” © Copyrights reserved Kanchi Periva Forum – www.periva.proboards.com & www.periva.org 13

You have inherited the generic name of ‘Indra Saraswathi’. It reminds one of the Vedic words “इन्द्रो मायाभि:पुरुरूपडरयते” (Indro Maayabihi Pururoopardayate). The combination of the word ‘Indra’ signifying Paramatmavaachakam and the word Saraswathi signifying Ananda of Brahmavaachakam highlight your high qualities of Brahman. Some people say that right from the days of Sri Sureshwaracharya, the Acharyas of the Kanchi Peetam acquired this title of Indra Saraswathi. By Subi Anna Coming in this great lineage of Acharyas and installing Sri Chakra just as Adi Sankara did, you have been travelling all over India without using any modern means of transportation. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have you in our midst and offer our respects to you. We do not know how to praise a great person like you with such amazing qualities.
