அர்த்தமுள்ள இந்து மதம் - பிள்ளையார் சுழி இட்ட மஹாபெரியவர்

அர்த்தமுள்ள இந்து மதம் - பிள்ளையார் சுழி இட்ட மஹா பெரியவர் 

Once Kaviarasar travelled in a car alongwith Sando Chinnappa Thevar. An accident happened.  Thevar had minor injury and Kaviarasar had major injuries. The latter was admitted in a hospital in unconscious state. 

After admitting Thevar rushed to Kanchi Math to pray before Maha Periyava. Maha Periyava enquired about Kaviarasar's condition, knowing fully well that Kavignar was in the company of atheists. 

He said to Thevar,  

"It's just transitory. Like clouds temporarily hide Sun,  his being atheist wouldn't last. For,  Kavignar's forefathers did do a bigger contributions for Varadaraja Perumal and Kamakshi temples."

He gave Vibuthi Prasad and instructed Thevar to give it to Kavignar. Thevar was worried how Kavignar would react. 

Coming back to hospital and though Kavignar recovered, it was still not yet Kavignar turned fully conscious. Thevar mustered courage and applied Maha Periyava's Vibuthi Prasad on Kavignar's forehead. 

When Kavignar turned conscious, with hesitation and being prepared to face Kavignar's reaction,  Thevar narrated his meeting Maha Periyava to pray and all details including Maha Periyava's recalling of Kavignar family's contributions in constructions of Temples in Kanchipuram. 

Tears swelled in Kavignar's eyes.

He asked Thevar to take him to Kanchi Math. 

Seeing Maha Periyava, Kavignar overwhelmed sang in praise,  

பார்த்த மாத்திரத்தில் பாவத்தை அலம்புகின்ற
தீர்த்தப் பெருக்கு,  திருவாசகத்தின்
உட்கருத்து... 
கலிமொய்க்கும் இவ்வுலகைக் காக்கவந்த
கண்கண்ட தெய்வம்... 

Listening to Kavignar's song, magnanimous Maha Periyava said, "Your praising song applies all to Mahan Seshadhri Swamigal at Ttiruvannamalai."

Maha Periyava continued, "with all your beautiful Tamil, write about all the grateness of the Hindu Religion."

Thus Kavignar began writing his Masterpiece, 
அர்த்தமுள்ள இந்து மதம்.
