YEMEN PADAR ADIPADU KODAAYUTHAKUR:

 Vakkium (Verse)-1

Introduction:

Aathiye Thunai. Yemen Padar Adipadu Kodaayuthakur, manifested under the grace of the preceptor of end of times, Bhramothiya Meivazhi Salai Andavargal. These holy Verses has the competency to confer the readers with the Earth, the azure sky, the ages since the beginning of times and all that is eternal and absolutely sacred since the beginning of times. The Holy book does not comprise any verse that cannot be experienced. Athiye Thunai, The true shrine of service and enlightenment, Meivazhi Salai has verily foreseen all the ages, both present and past. The reason God bequeathed man with life was to make him realize the absolute truth. Scholars of religious scriptures may assert that it is impossible to achieve such a fleet at the age we live in. But to travel beyond the threshold of one’s mind to understand the absolute truth of alpha to omega and attain salvation one has the seek the benediction of a humble Deva Guru, conqueror of the nine planets, who can elucidate the absolute truth and untangle the secrets of body and soul face to face without any misgivings. Since sometimes spiritual process was blurred in Tamilnadu due to the lack of a true spiritual preceptor. However, now Meivazhi Salai at Uralmalai forest, a domain of Tamil Thondaimaan in the continent of Asia has witnessed the glorious dawn of true learning in service and enlightenment. True enlightenment exhibits incessant gradual growth that should convert the mind that is engrossed in material thoughts to spiritual thoughts which in turn will lead towards conquering death, transformation of impious human to a pious human and finally transformation of a pious human to immortal being. Meivazhi Salai has kept its utmost significance as to evidently unveil and elucidates in form all religious scripture's concealed implications, evidence, purpose, unity, diversity, syllabus, infinite genuine spiritual visualizations, and the path to attain salvation. By entering this abode of teaching one shall witness that gradual annihilation of attributes that perturbs one’s path towards absolute truth and desire for ephemeral profits such as naive material knowledge, false spiritual enlightenment. All these teaching shall flourish through the audacious and victorious Tamil language. A time will come when the entire world will understand that the preceptor who hiked the unbounded epitome of spirituality and founder of Meivazhi Salai is the only god shepherd of their time. Meanwhile his holiness humble devotees shall do what needs to be done. Any person who thrives on earth having attained his maturity and seeks knowledge to slake his soul’s hunger which is compared to the art of standing on kinetic water body shall be taught the art of enlightenment every morning and evening in the land of Meivazhi Salai as promised above. Be it the deprived or the affluent, whoever seeks to learn this age old art of conquering death at Meivazhi Salai does not require any fees to join. There is no commandment that requires a mandatory daily attendance. All that Meivazhi Salai seeks form a person is to possess a good moral character and passion to learn this art of enlightenment.

THE PURSUIT FOR DIVINITY- ANDAVARGAL EXPLAINS IT ALL

Philosophers, scientists have always claimed that mankind differ from other animals by possessing the sixth sense, but when someone raises the question out of inquisitiveness, that what is this sixth sense that humans claim, then the very people who coined such a term are left clueless. Answers to questions such as purpose of human's existence, life after death, the interpretation of the sixth sense, origin of universe human being, etc have perturbed people since time immemorial. Our ancestors in the previous eras have at least undertook various pilgrimage with an intention of discovering answers to such questions, but the time we live in, people have either given up hope or deluded themselves that they are going to live forever in their temporal mortal forms forever to accumulate wealth power and fame.

Self-discovery is attributed to self-realization or enlightenment and surfeit of other words which differ from 

one religion to the other. Before attaining enlightenment various religious god heads like Ramanuja, Adi Shankara, Buddha, Jesus, Moses, Mahavir, Muhammad (SAW) wanted to make sense of the world and their existence. They also felt turmoil in their soul after witnessing the condition of life being unfavorable with death agony disease and so they searched for the answers for their dilemma through pilgrimage or quest. Also, every form of God (avatars), Goddess, Messengers, Prophets, Saints were not born enlightened, but its only after undergoing a minimum of 12 years rigorous trance (Think about it Lord Jesus, Buddha, Shri Ram, Sri-Krishna, Guru Nanak , Moses and all the others would have undergone a minimum of 12 years detour from their normal way of life) under the guidance of their divine Master(/Angle/Guru/God many more names from various religion) they became enlightened and conquered death. If divine beings themselves had to undertake such an arduous path then, why should any saint and religious leaders of today's world who wants to understand god and attain salvation be any different?

Take for example if some one aspires to becoming a scientist or an authority of science then, one needs to get a recognized degree from an authorized university but, just think how cruel it is for the common men to imagine that to understanding God or the creator of universe, the very fact which baffles even science requires magic, a dream where God comes and enlightens you overnight, a trance where only darkness surrounds as you close your eyes. Men have always associated a veil of mysteriousness in the God head's divine parables, their teachings and their way of life. The original author of religious scriptures did not deliberately render their verses in a cryptic fashion but, it seems so because over these years, the impostors have complicated the verses as they extrapolated the message to accumulate money and fame. Just as science requires sincerity and practicality from it's student, so does spirituality. Is it not true that every scripture insist a devotee to discover oneself to attain salvation/Nirvana/Mukthi/etc? Since people are too much engulfed in the material world, they never have time to understand the path to self-discovery and the impostors use this ignorance as an advantage to further deceive them with unwarranted claims about self discovery.

The basic emphasis of all the major religion of the world is that when man was first created in his mortal form to inherit earth, God decided to sow the seed of divine, mystic and devotional worship in his heart, to transform him into a celestial being so as to help him reap the fruits of his devotion and finally obtain nirvana/salvation/Jhannath/etc.  However man's very sins (Karma) that condemned him to live his life on earth makes him oblivious of this divine object that his heart bears. Christians call this object by the names sacred heart, the Muslims by the name Noor, the Buddhist  by the name Om mani and as far as the Hindus are concerned the very name of their God Venkatajalapathi (ven-pure,Katam-body, Jalampathi- he who lives on parkadal)when interpreted states that he who created heaven lives in ones heart. If a person wishes to get hold of his divine object (embodiment of God that is present inside one's heart which  removes Maya and annihilates the cycle of rebirth) then one must seek the benediction of the chosen savant of one's time, who alone can take him aboard on divine chariot to reveal his/her heart's hidden treasure evidently without any doubt and it is only after witnessing such a capability from a person can he be called the chosen savant of an age.    

Holy men have been visiting earth for the redemption of human souls form the evil clutches of Death and they were able to do this for a follower as long as he had faith in them and followed their gospels or teachings that propagated the above basic message. The day this fails and people start to forget or misunderstand the above message, they incarnate again to redeem their teachings under a different name, religion and mortal form and when this happens the act of faith is now naturally associated only with their current mortal form and not the previous as those devotees alone appreciate and practice the basic message of all religions. This is just like saying, when a new president is elected, all your petitions needs to be directed to the new president provided if you truly aspire to get your petition implemented. In other words think about it, if every religion claim that God is one then why did God create so many religions or ways to salvation, did he want his followers to get confused and live astray?

If one accepts my above reasoning then by what means do we undertake to find the preceptor of our age? Should we associate him to a person who wears the attire of holy men? or to a person who lives by alms like a vagabond, or to cunning person who distributes money generously from his devotees offerings or to a person who does tricks like a magician or to a person who interprets texts from sacred books like a mundane scholar or to person who bestows you with temporal happiness like money, fame and power. These attributes can deceive a vacuous theist but not a rational atheist or theist. The only attribute essential for your spiritual teacher is to possess the ability to literally take you aboard on a divine chariot to heaven that is within your heart. These acts are not something new to spirituality but have taken place in the life of all Holy men who have conquered death. Hinduism speaks of God's incarnations like Ram,  Muruga, Ganapathi,Kali riding divine chariots like Garuda, Peacock, Rat, Tiger respectively to attain heaven. Islam claims that their Prophet rode a mystic chariot known as “Burahk” to reach heaven. Christianity recognizes the second coming of Jesus  form heaven by riding a gleaming white horse and many other religions with their many such claims regarding their chosen savant riding their respective divine chariot.  Do note that the commandment from all scriptures that needs to be  followed for conquering death is not always to witness heaven with such holy men but to just possess immense faith in such holy men.

Beyond the conscious state, there is the sleep world and beyond that there is another region, the threshold of which can never be reached by sleep. And that region is that of the highest mental and spiritual illumination, where arises the unceasing seven-fold music, which the more and more one hears, the more and more one loss, one’s self in divine ecstasy. This truth has been symbolically represented here (at Meivazhi Salai) by the blowing of seven trumpets.This grand process is now being manifested here in full and the ecstasy and rapture produced thereby represented by the reverberating melody of the Deva Dundhumis and the divine dance performed in tune with it.

Thus it will be seen that this place where virtuous and arduous deeds are practiced by the self-realized; liberated and purified souls called Anandars, have descended from the unseen world in all its fullness, perfection of intelligence and peak of beauty. So, it may now be proclaimed that this world will surely and certainly realize that this is the only true, spiritual and sacred city for the age. Suffice it is to say that in this city of justice called “Meivazhi Salai” is inherited by people drawn from different caste, religion, creed and community who have taken rebirth in the spiritual body and developed themselves in the spiritual path. None, not even one, whose heart has not been illumined lives here.

Just as a small needle is embedded in the vast and deep ocean, even so is this small city of truth in the wide expanse of the world. Hence, it is very difficult for mundane people to visualize the existence of such a place. So they are right within the limits of their knowledge in describing the search for it as a vain effort but, such a divine place does, in fact, exist at the present time, though it may be beyond the reach of those who crave for mere mundane joy and pleasure.

All that I am trying to emphasis in this publication is the message that Science can be taught only by a scientist and if an artist make this effort in a prolonged fashion  it not only ruins an adherent's understanding about science, but also causes slow death to science itself. Similarly as acknowledged by all religious scriptures, spirituality can be comprehended only with a guidance of a chosen savant yet, man believes in doing the converse and sometimes falls prey to bogus masters, leading to fear of death and ignorance of life. There goes a universal truth that life is short but if there is an afterlife as promised by all religions, then it’s going to be a very long one indeed. So search for all your unexplored answers at MEIVAZHI SALAI before your time runs out and don't be a living example for the Buddha's warning, "All that man does is prepare and prepare but go unprepared for the next word" 

Sri-La-Sri-SalaiAndavargal

Meivahi salai:

Meivazhi (Tamil: மெய்வழி) meaning “The true path”, is a monotheistic religion which maintains an ashram established at pudukkottai district in Tamil Nadu, India in the year 1942. Its focus is to elevate follower's spiritual enlightenment and conquer the death through the teachings and example of its founder and spiritual leader, Shri Brahma Prakasa Salai Andavargal, believed to be the incarnation of God himself awaited by all religious Holy Scriptures and said to have lived for 120 years. Meivazhi has its own Holy Scriptures that runs over 7 volumes written in local language, Tamil by its founder and has its own prayer system which shuns the practice of idolatry worship and spiritual festivals which commemorates the founder’s sacred history and his path to enlightenment. The embodiment of MEIVAZHI is in the person of His Holiness Meivazhi Salai Andavargal, the Preceptor of Meivazhi, who proves and upholds all the holy teachings of all the GOD - sent apostles, the moola manthrams, the crest jewels of all the religions in the world (the Word, the Kalima, the Pranava, the Spirit, the Voice of God) and the mystic truths set forth in the symbols and parables of Holy Books. The holy cult meivazhi which was established in the verge of Kali yug’s completion (in accordance with Aryabhata's calculation)under the grace of its founder is being believed to have rendered its followers from the cruel tentacles of Yama, the god of death and bestowing them with blissful life in paradise, free from the torments of age, death and disease. It has followers from as many as 69 different castes who after becoming its chosen members live as one big spiritual family, disregarding their previous caste identity and seeking heavenly benedictions from their spiritual master who is now beneath the soil enduring the “KANNI VIRAT DHAVAM”. The holy shrine inside the ashram is named the “ponnaranga devaaliyam” meaning the golden temple.

The daily rituals in the ashram include blowing of the divine trumpet, rising of the sacred flag which is usually white in color with an upward pointing crescent. These rituals are done with an objective of displaying their leader’s spiritual authority and also to welcome the outsiders. All the followers pay their obeisance to the god by offering him five times prayer consisting of praising of God, thanks giving to God and atonement of their sins .The place has over 1,000 inhabitants who live a life that is detached from the comforts of the material world, electricity, noise, and pollution. The village does not have any electrical aplliances and inhabitants depend on kerosene lamps and solar powered streetlights. Although it draws strongly on Hindu religious cults (Vaishnavism and Saiva), its initiator was born to a Muslim family, and Mevaizhi preaches the "oneness of essence" message of all the previous major scriptures, particularly Hinduism, Buddhism, Islam, Judaism and Christianity thereby taming serenity, glee, oneness in the hearts and souls of the followers. Meivazh’s followers adhere to the basic beliefs of all religions such as life after death (judgemnent day), hell, heaven, birth of Messengers, Prophets, Yogis, rishis, saints in different yugas send forth by God to carry out redemption of mankind from sins and sufferings. The followers of Meivazhi Salai Andavargal have sacrificed their deep sleep and lust. They do not indulge in smoking, drinking liquor, gambling, theft, and other dismal activities.

Meivahi Salai Andavargal life history:

Meivahi Andavargal's Coming has been prophesied in the Holy Books of all ages under various names as the Andavargal, Salai Andavargal, Marganadha Andavargal, Kalki, Mahadi, Veera Boga Vasanthar etc., all indicating His spiritual acts and deeds. His holiness was born on the year 1857 at Margampattai, a village in palani taluk, Madurai district in Tamil Nadu. He was then named Khader Badsha Rowther by his parents - father being Jamal Hussain Rowther and mother Periya Thayi. He had his primary education in the village elementary school and followed the profession of his father as an agriculturist. Even as a youth he had an innate thirst for a higher spiritual life and in his search, came across as many as twelve Gurus, all of whom he later discovered to be bogus ones. Ultimately he concluded that only through hata yoga, higher spiritual realisation could be attained and practised it to such an extent that he could lift his body 1 foot above the ground level. After marriage, he migrated to Kasukkaranpalayam where from small beginnings he build up a lucrative business as a wholesale

Meeting Of Thanigai Mani Vallal Piran: 

During one of his days as paddy merchant, he came across a very elderly person whom he happened to meet near his shop. He then invited this elderly person to his house where he was convinced that he was so far following a futile path (Hata Yoga), which was nothing but a short cut to hell, since he had already developed symptoms detrimental to normal health. During further discussions, he understood that the elderly person whom he confronted was his chosen Satguru. A week later after their acquaintance, his satguru Shri Thanigai Mani Vallal Piran baptized him through Bramhopadesam, the spiritual rebirth, at Kasukkaranpalayam.  

Akilavalam:

The first meeting of Salai Andavargal with the holy guest, his guru and entertaing him with milk, honey and ragi-dosai by Andavargal is celebrated as a festival during pournami day of the pangunai month(April), known as “Piravaa Naat Prapputh Thirunaal” Thiruvizha. Renouncing his family profession and all worldly attachments, for many years he followed his master as a shadow, covering on foot the entire South India. During this period he was bestowed with all the higher initiations and the Truth that all religion are one, and that their Moolamanthirams identical – there being one GOD and only universal brotherhood of religion – Onnre Kulam Oruvene Deven – known as Samarasa Sudha Sanmargam, a philosophy adumbrated by his predecessor Vadaloor Ramalinga Swamigal in the spiritual hierarchy.

Shepherd-hood:

After Akilavalam (a spiritual progression one undertakes with his holy Guru to understand and live out the divine attributes for achieving the sanctified path to enlightenment), he was engaged in tendering a flock of sheep at Reddiyapatti village to harness the quality of humbleness, at the order of his master Thanigai Vallal Piran, for a period of one year. This is annually celebrated as a festival “Aaadumeyippu Thirukkola katchi” shepherding man from the clutches of YAMA to his shelter, symbolically.

Tapas:

Thereafter he was directed to observe severe Thapas in the cave on the western side of Thirupparankunram hill (near Madurai) which he carried out for many years bereft of sleep and near starvation diet on Prickly pear (Kathali). Thereby he acquired divine symbols (sannadams) in his sacred hand – such us Udukkai, Vel, Shanku, Sakkaram etc. as well as “Khill Namam” which is now used by his followers as a their religions righteous symbol. His holiness acquiring the holy symbol is commemorated by celebrating the festival of “Kodaayudha Sannathath Thirukkappu Kangganath Thirunall“ in the month of Vaikasi(June) He was then christened “Maarganadhar” by his Guru. The savant then understood that his disciple Salai Andavargal is fully endowed with wit and power to commence his holy mission “Meivazhi”(True Path), and departed from him after persuading Salai Andavargal to proceed forward in his holy mission alone. Cladding himself in saffron robe, Andavargal first preached to sanyasis, but failed to turn them to true faith. Thereupon he understood that most of the sanyasis were impostors not because of their ignorance but deliberation to loot innocent people’s money for satisfying their lust and hunger. Andavargal then gave up the garb of sanyasi and took to preaching family people engaged in worldly occupations. Later at Thirupathur he married Panimathi Nachiyar as per his Guru’s wish

Salai Andavargal's Noble Endeavors:

The first Meivazhi Ashram was founded at Rajagambiram, and the next at Thirupathur where the Saba was registered in 1933. From small beginnings, the number of followers gradually increased, year by year. In 1939 he built the Ponnaranga Devalayam at Madurai (Aruppukkottai Road) and the saba was shifted to the new premises. In 1942 the then British Government acquired the place by paying Rs.1, 37, 750.00 as compensation. Consequently Andavargal migrated to the present site at Pappancahivaval (Meivazhi Salai)in 1942, purchasing the land for about Rs.6,000.00 and clearing the jungle land for habitation. Here he married Elya Nachiyar, younger sister of Panimathi Nachiyar. The saba was re-registered in 1944 (in the then Pudukkottai State) where it has been functioning ever since.

Unique excellence of Salai Andavargal:

Meivahi salai andavargal is endowed with all the Divine Symbols such as the Conch, the Chakra (the Wheel), the Vel, the Crescent - like KILNAMAM etc., on his holy palms[revealed to the realized ones, spiritually uplifted], in token of the Heavenly Titles conferred on Him by the Supreme God for carrying out His Great Mission. The distinctive signs, besides the Heavenly Tokens, that distinguish Him from the mushrooms of impostors, masquerading as master all over the world, and identify Him as the only True Master of the Age, are:-

1. He has Conquered Slumber and Sleep. 
2. The Breath never Passes out of His Nostrils. 
3. He has Practically overcome the Need of Food. His mission, unparallelled in the history of spiritual hierarchy, consists, among many other spiritual values, in i) eradicating the falsehoods and half-truths about religions, ii) bringing home to man the Lost Truth that the very purpose of religion is to rescue him from the death-throes iii) baptizing with the spirit, thereby enlightening and expanding the dark and constricted heart and opening the vistas of soul, a series of eternal revelations iv) warning against the impending disaster and destruction, the whole universe is facing. v) offering mankind a helping hand to escape the 'sting of death' and to win the 'victory of the grave', and vi) resurrecting the dead which is evident even now from the fact that mere water taken at the word of His Command from His August Presence, passes through the gullet, as in live state, when administered to His true disciples, even many days after their final departure from the mortal coil to reach their rendezvous(heavenly destination), which is the Abode of Bliss.

Salai Andavargal message to the world:

We have a long history of endless and time-consuming human endeavor of search and research for the locating of the seat of the soul and region of reasoning and the where about of wisdom and knowledge-box in the human body. The research scientists acquire the heads of dead persons at a valuable price for conducting research to locate the seat of wisdom and its transcendental tract of reasoning in the physical body of the human race. The research scientists of the human bodies operate the human head and search for the seat of wisdom. This endless time-Consuming endeavor at a huge cost has resulted only in fruitless labor with negative result. With all their endeavor consuming time, energy and money, it is impossible for them to find this seat of wisdom and the soul of reasoning in the human body since they search in a place where it does not exist. It is our earnest desire to inform the human race to discontinue this wasteful endeavor of searching in a place where it does not exist. The spiritual, divine and basic axioms of all religions and all the divine descriptions of the scared names of GOD and the religious names which mankind has adopted denote only this seat of wisdom and region of reasoning. The immortal religions which exist for conquering death also denote the same thing. Therefore, Our message to the human race is that We know positively the location of the seat of wisdom and the soul of reasoning. Thousands of Our disciples in India and elsewhere also have been initiated into the divine knowledge about the seat of wisdom and soul

Exhibits Immortal Proof of Salvation:

Meivazhi says that the True God & the God's kingdom is present within our body. So our soul has to reach the True God present within our body so that it attains salvation at the time of death. This Immortal Salvation are taking place to people of Meivazhi till Today. Meivazhi teaches the way for our Soul to reach the true God present within our body so that it attains Salvationat the time of Death. There are 10 symptoms shown in body at the time of Death to find whether the person has attained Heaven or Hell. The symptoms of the person reaching the Heaven are

1.  No bad stench of the body showing only pleasant aroma from the body. No discharge of foul-smelling liquid. 
2. No stiffening of the body,Thus showing signs of flexibility of parts.
3. The body will be light in weight like a flower-basket. 
4. The body sweats as the people nearby sings the divine songs of Meivazhi Andavar. 
5. The complete body exhibits warmness. 
6. The natural conditions of the throat path. Hence the body takes in the holy water when given. 
7. The knuckles giving out sound when cracked. 
8. The disappearance of deformities such as hunch-back, with which they may have been afflicted. 
9. The pure and pleasant state of the body reflecting youthfulness and cheerness blooming on the face. 
10. The body does not decay after death. Also the earth does not affect the body even for years. Still more symptoms can be found in the body of Meivazhi people who attained Immortal Salvatio

Meivazhi's Dress Code:

The followers have their own spiritual dress code for both males and females which becomes mandatory while entering the ashram. Male who received the “Upadhesam” (the absolute spiritual enlightenment that takes aboard a person to celestial heaven when he is still alive and absolves him from all erroneous acts committed.), from Salai Andavargal, array themselves with saffron shirt and panchakacham (a traditional trouser worn by Hindus) and wear saffron turban, they are Christened as “Anandars” and all the other male followers who did not receive the Upadesam wear white turban and use clothes that are dyed with colors other than saffron and dark colors. Women who received the Upadesam wear sarees and cover their head with saffron scarf, while other women wear sarees and cover their head with saree’s end.
