Many are the blessed souls that have received Vazhipaadu discourses in English and Tamil paperback formats. The recurring sentiment of being deeply touched by the great Sage. For, Vazhipaadu, is a living book, replete with Sage Agastya's energy. Those who read it with devotion and open mind, cannot fail to be touched by it.
Over the years, many responses were received. I have not been able to compile them all..But here are some..
"If one is allowed to only read a dozen spiritual and sacred books in their lifetime, this book must be included. It truly is a PATH to insightful, and at times, mystically inspired wisdom. Channeled love and energy flow through this most amazing translation from regions beyond our reality. It seems impossible to conceive, but it seems to come from the consciousness of the greatest sages of India, Agastya - revealed during meditations to the humble father of the translator of this book. Truth is awaiting you the reader!": Rev Bill McDonald, Author, award winning poet, Minster, Kriya yoga Meditation teacher, International motivational speaker, Media consultant, Founder of the American Authors Association, Founder and President of The Spiritual Warrior Ministries.
"Maharishi Agasthiyar has given this knowledge pertaining to the norms and philosophy of Siddhars through the sukshma sharira (subtle body) of Sri Gajaraj Swamigal. It is a treasure trove of grace for those that are in search of spiritual knowledge and true wisdom. It is only through the grace of Maharishi Agastya that a book such as this, has been given to the spiritual brotherhood and disciples in search of truth":Sri Vallai Maharishi, Agastiyarpeedam, Siddhar Rishi Gurukulam, Batu Caves: Malaysia.
"Agastya as an avatar is one whose universal consciousness is beyond time and in perpetual continuity. The significant question is how does that consciousness survive? Perhaps, 'Agasthiyar Vazhipaadu' holds a response to that question": Dr Mahesh S Kidangil, Gurukkal, Kalaripayattu Master and Yoga Guru, Author, Film Maker, Managing Director, Agasthyam International, Trivandrum, Kerala.
"I’ve read two, five to go (on the Vazhipaadu books) !!! The knowledge is beautiful and well presented. Thank you for introducing me": Yates Downes, CA.
"From time immemorial humanity has been given spiritual knowledge and instructions thruogh great masters who exemplify those teachings. This narrative stands testimony to the blessing of the great Sage Agastaya in the giving of the sacred book, 'Agasthiyar Vazhipaadu': James Gunter Thomas, Soul Master, United Kingdom:
"Agastya, The Path is like taking bath in the therapeutic chilling waters of Papanasam. Amazing stuff!": Ragav Krishna.
'Today, Appa came to my home. Yes, I received the books. I am very happy. Speechless for the moment. Whenever, I read this book, I realize Appa has given these words for me. It is really a miracle. I cannot control my tears.": Vijayashanthi.
"This book has entered my life and I feel such confidence that Appa will clear any doubts I have. Reading this book now and every word of the book is an eye opener. I am getting answers one by one from the book. Concepts or complicated words or ideas like andamum, pindamum (Microcosm and macrocosm) are opening their doors for me. I used to wonder about them once. Vazhipaadu is a living book. I have no doubt about that. It is Appa Agastya's words. It will never perish. Almost every time I pick up the book, I feel something".: Gayathri Muralidharan.
More such responses and reactions can be found in the books, "Agasthiyar Vazhipaadu: Making of a Sacred Book' and 'Agastya, The Path' paperback version. They are also found on the Amazon website under reviews.
