INSPIRING INCIDENTS

On 31.8.2014 I was travelling in the bus towards Tiruchendur.One person who was sitting by my side wished me by mentioning my name. He introduced himself to me by saying that before 17 years he had participated in the cultural class competiton in which I was acting as the Judge. He has also won prizes. At present he is attending RSS Camps and he is playing Nadaswaram in functions. He has also participated in a function at our Vinayagar temple of Kanyakumari campus. He informed me that he is ready to attend any Kendra’s; function to play Nadaswaram at free of cost and also gave me his contact number. This incident impressed me very much.
V.JANAKI PUSHPAM –INCHARGE - VALLIOOR – TIRUNELVELI DISTRICT
Once I went to my family deity temple along with my family members which is situated near papanasam which is called Sorimuthu Iyanar Temple to celebrate a function. At that time nearly 30 persons from Adaichani came there in a van and each and everybody enquired my welfare. Also everybody gave me prasadam also to me. On seeing this my family members felt so happy and also informed me that their love and affection towards me was boundless. All of them have studied when I was working as a Kendra teacher which was remembered by them. My balwadi students, cultural class students have been grown up and have not forgotten me. I felt so happy at that time.
