Periyava -Iyenger scholar, a devotee wanted to send money order every month - Periyava not even enquired fully.
This is the story of Vaishanavite scholar- Iyengar swamigal and Periyava fulfilled his desire by making a devotee to send money order every month. Periayva used to attend sadas in the Sri Matam at the conveninent dates and scholars used attend sadas, discuss various points in the presence of the Periyava. After the completion of sadas,Sri Matam authorities used to distribute some amount for the scholars who attended the sadas. A elderly Vaishnavite scholar attended sadas and also got equal amount that was paid to a boy of 16 years age who attended sadas. Some mind prickings was there for the aged Vaishnavite scholar and felt somewhat offended because he was paid equal with the boy of 16 years of age. With these things, he went to the bus stand and was sitting in the bus, got the ticket from the bus conductor for 30 paise. Periyava knew all these things.After the sadas was over, devotees who were waiting for darsan of Periyava came for darsan of Periyava. In that a couple was there and they want to say something to Periyava. But Periyava turned his attention somewhere and the advocate couple was not able to say what they wanted. Periyava then and then turned his attention towards other devotees. Meanwhile, Periyava sent a boy to fetch the aged Vaishnavite scholar and the boy went to the bus stand, spoke with the Iyengar swamigal, got down from the bus and the aged scholar was before Periyava. The Vaishnavite scholar refused to come to meet Periyava saying that he was here after attending the sadas. Even the conductor gave the money he got for the bus ticket. The aged scholar was before Periyava and the advocate couple was also before Periyava. Periyava asked the advocate to note down the address of the Vaishnavite scholar-Iyengar swamigal and the Vaishnavite scholar went to his place later. The advocate then tried to say something to Periyava. Periyava told that advocate, that everything was over and need not elaborate. The advocate wanted to say something to Periyava. Then Periyava started that you wanted to send some amount to a Vedic scholar and through me, you wanted to do that. That task had already been finished. That scholar was with you and I asked you to note down the address and you have also noted the address. The advocate and his wife were not able to say anything to Periyava because Periyava showed the advocate the great aged scholar for whom the money has to be sent every month even without getting the sayings from the advocate. Periyava finished the complete task of identifying the scholar, noting down the address of the scholar and also shown the scholar to the advocate . The advocate cannot say anything to Periyava but Periyava knew all these things .
Thus Periyava fulfiflled the desires of the elderly Vaishnavite scholar- Iyengar swamigal who was going to his residence with the thinking of that he was being equated with a boy of 16 years in sadas, Periyava called him and assured him a monthly amount from a devotee, Periyava fulfilled the wishes of his devotee of finding a scholar and to send his monthly contribution.
