Served as a Surveyor

-

One fine day (01/04/2015), suddenly, I was invited by the PRO of REACH FOUNDATION for a trip to Kanchipuram (the divine haven ruled by Goddess Kamakshi) on a heritage related project; the work included surveying of heritage buildings and data entry. I considered this as a god-given opportunity, as the job was pertaining to my inherent interest. I really had a wonderful time with new contacts, architecture students and genuine people of my wave length. Highlights of the trip was the divine-darshan of Sri Kamakshi Amman and the surprise-darshan of Jayendra Saraswati Swamigal and 'Palabishegam'-darshan of Sri Maha-Periyavar Samadhi at Sri Sankara Matam.

Thanks to the divine mother who blessed me with such blissful events in my life

This strange yet strong divine experience embraced me when I happened to read Ramana Maharishi's story in 'Amar Chithra Katha'  (a story book series meant for kids, with pictorial representations). This story about Bhagavan made me realize that what I have been wanting to become, all these years, is what Ramana was and is. In other words, my hidden and incomprehensible yet constant quest, ever since my childhood, that has been dominating my existence, suddenly revealed itself to me in the form of Ramana Maharishi. The Maharishi attracts and the Mountain absorbs

Salutations to a Sagacious Soul

It is a blessing to have a father about whom a daughter can be proud of; I am blessed indeed.  My father   Mr.R.Sivasaravanan  (7 th  Feb 1949 – 22 nd  June 2012) has always been a pious, magnanimous, polite, prudent, intelligent, innovative, calm, self-disciplined and knowledgeable gentle man. He dedicated his life for gaining knowledge in as many fields of life as possible and for his spiritual upliftment as well. God gave him to us for He loved us and took him back for He loved him. I am proud to state that my father was the inventor of ‘Improvised connecting-rod mechanism for Diesel Engines’ for improving fuel efficiency, to decrease exhaust emission & to increase engine life. He presented his invention  at IIT Madras  and received the LRAMP 2007 Award in ‘Grass Root Innovator category’ for the same, from the honourable hands of Dr.A.P.J.Abdul Kalam. He also presented his  invention in International conference ‘MAST 2007’ at Italy.  H...
