He was spoken of as belonging to the saints of the highest order by spiritually acclaimed people and other saints who came to seek His darshan.

Little did I realize the greatness of this spiritual giant Kodi Swami who spent the last thirty years of His life at our residence, Puravipalayam, a small village near Pollachi in Coimbatore district of Tamilnadu.
