In the 20th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan Explains the Origin of Creation, the Primordial sound OM and predictions by Mayan Calendar.
In the beginning, the Supreme Reality, Brahman, existed by itself. There was no creation, no Universe , and no individual forms. When this primordial consciousness awakened from its state of stillness, it experienced its own bliss. From that bliss arose the sacred vibration OM. This vibration spread throughout existence and became the cosmic sound that fills the entire Universe.
The Pranava Light of Om transformed into the Supreme Divine Light, and from this Divine Light all worlds emerged. Before light came sound, before sound came thought, and thought itself was the primordial source. This original essence exists within every form of creation.
At its core, this primordial essence is pure love, pure knowledge, and pure energy. It contains the power of attraction, dynamic force, and creative intelligence. Because of these qualities, it possesses the powers of creation, preservation, and transformation. What first existed as the Supreme Atom gradually manifested as subtle particles, atoms, the five elements, and eventually the entire Universe. This primal reality is present everywhere. There is no place where it does not exist. Those who truly understand the meaning of Om realize that Om pervades all existence. When one experiences Om within oneself, nothing remains separate from it.
Gurumahan explains that the Pranava vibration forms the foundation of creation. He refers to ancient traditions that describe Tamil as one of humanity’s most ancient languages and states that the Pranava wisdom is deeply connected to this sacred heritage.
Drawing upon the calculations and insights of the ancient sage and master architect Mayan, Gurumahan explains that changes occurring in the heavens are reflected on Earth. The same divine principle that exists in the cosmos also exists within every living being. This primordial essence is the source, the foundation, and the fullness of all existence.
Gurumahan further explains that humanity is living in a time of increasing environmental and planetary changes. Ancient calculations have suggested the possibility of significant Earth changes during certain cosmic periods. These changes could manifest in different ways and may even include major shifts in the Earth's systems.
Therefore, the Velvi is performed with a noble purpose to invoke positive transformation, protect the world from destructive outcomes, and ensure the well-being of all living beings. Through Velvi, Gurumahan seeks to promote harmony, peace, and a better future for the entire world.

In the 20th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan Reveals the Cosmic Play of Sathya Yuga, Where Every Soul Is Chosen to Fulfill a Unique Role on the Divine Stage!
The Guru has now begun working directly for your upliftment. From this moment onward, you need not worry about the Guru, nor should you remain burdened by sorrow. Life may bring difficulties in the morning, challenges in the evening, and even discomfort during sleep. Yet, the Guru invites you to look deeper. When you sleep, you lose awareness of the body and the world. After waking, you say, “I slept well.” Who is this “I” that knows the experience of sleep? The true Self remains even beyond sleep. That eternal Self never dies. The body may perish, but the witnessing consciousness within remains untouched by birth and death. That is why the realized one says, “I neither sleep nor wake. I am neither born nor do I die.” If the body suffers injury, consciousness simply observes the experience. The true Self remains beyond all harm. The one who causes pain and the one who experiences pain ultimately arise within the same universal consciousness. When humanity realizes this truth, peace and happiness naturally prevail. The Guru declares that His mission has already begun at the deepest levels. A great Yogic Revolution is now unfolding, and every seeker has a role in it. In this Divine drama directed by the Guru, each person can become a shining participant. The reward for playing your role well is joy, inner freedom, and ultimately liberation. Whether life assigns you the role of a parent, child, grandparent, spouse, or any other responsibility, perform it with sincerity and excellence. When you fulfill your role with awareness, you move closer to the Divine.
The Guru does not merely bless devotees with spiritual grace; He also wishes to bless them with material prosperity. Just as Lord Krishna satisfied countless people's hunger through a single grain of rice, the Guru says that a powerful wave of blessings now flows through devotees. This treasure is not merely wealth, it is the wealth of Divine grace. May you receive both spiritual abundance and material prosperity. May you live a fulfilled life on Earth while progressing toward higher spiritual attainment. Yet remember: whenever you receive something, give something in return. Whatever we receive from this world, we must offer back to the world. May the treasure of grace you receive become an inexhaustible source of abundance in your home. May unending prosperity fill your household. This wealth is not meant only for personal comfort but also for helping those in need. A true seeker shares generously without hesitation. Spiritual wealth and material wealth both grow through giving. If the Guru blesses you abundantly, share that abundance with others. Let the joy and prosperity you receive spread throughout the world. As one performs the Sarva Sakthi Siddhi Yagam daily before sunrise and after sunset, grace that enters the home transforms into inexhaustible abundance, and the blessings of the eight forms of prosperity flourish within the family. May happiness fill your lives!

In the 20th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan Speaks of the United Efforts of Enlightened Masters to Safeguard the World & Entrusts Pranavalayam to Humanity’s Care.
The Guru's work has now begun. There are still 3 more days of important activities ahead. Discussions have taken place with the great sages, saints, and enlightened masters who have appeared throughout time. They have united with a common purpose, to protect and preserve the Earth. At the same time, powerful natural forces are waiting to unfold. While we continue to inspire hope among people, we must also prepare for the challenges ahead. A single enlightened master can create a great positive impact, but the collective goodwill and positive thoughts of all people are equally important. That is why this Velvi has been organized.
Although deep spiritual states were experienced naturally at the age of 7, and the realization of inner silence and the question "Who am I?" was attained early in life, the right time was needed to understand them fully and share them with others. Now, the time has also come to put those realizations into action. This is the season when those efforts can bear fruit. During this period, talented experts, innovators, and wise individuals from around the world are coming together to find ways to protect our planet.
Over these three days, many activities will take place for the benefit of the people. Many of you have endured hardships and carried unfulfilled wishes. Through various practices and spiritual invocations, this special environment has been created to help remove suffering and bring fulfillment to sincere aspirations. This Pranavalayam has now been entrusted to you. It belongs to you. The responsibility to protect it, preserve it, and use it wisely rests with you. From this sacred place, many noble tasks still need to be carried out.
Some have shared that they experienced extraordinary visions, even beneath the surface of the Earth. When one enters deeper states of awareness, it becomes possible to witness many stages of evolution and transformation. These experiences remind us that we must continue creating positive conditions for humanity and the world. During the next three days, many significant events and spiritual activities will continue. May this Tamil New Year bring special blessings to the Tamil people. Just as the saying goes, "When Thai is born, a new path emerges," a new path will now open for good-hearted people.
Many of you have wondered why good people must face so many trials. Going forward, goodness will receive greater protection and support. May you gather the powerful energies present here, use them for your personal growth, support your families, serve society, and contribute to the welfare of the entire world.
We also extend our heartfelt blessings and gratitude to the enlightened teachers and spiritual guides who have stood with us and supported this noble mission.

In the 20th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan Reveals That the Guru Leads Souls Beyond Death Into Divine Awakening!
A disciple can truly understand the Guru only when the Guru himself grants grace and blessings. In today’s world, where people struggle to understand even their own parents, understanding a being who has come for the upliftment of humanity, the Earth, and the Universe becomes even more difficult.
Outwardly, the Guru appears like an ordinary human being. But beyond the physical form exists a higher consciousness. Among children, He becomes childlike; among scholars, He becomes a scholar; among sages, He stands as a sage. He remains established in his true Self and is untouched by praise or criticism because He has gone beyond ego and bodily identity.
The Guru explains that true “death” means transcending attachment to the body and its emotions. People fear death only because they identify themselves with the physical body. But the soul never dies. Human life is temporary, just like staying in a room during a journey. Once the purpose is fulfilled, the soul moves on.
Through meditation and tapas, a seeker rises beyond waking, dream, and sleep into the divine state. Many who enter deep spiritual practice realize that they have forgotten the body and remembered the soul within. When ego disappears, divine realization begins.
The Guru declares that He is not the Guru for one birth alone, but for all births. Through 19 Velvis and now the 20th Velvi, He continues to reveal His mission through action and through the transformation of his disciples.
He says that a true spiritual path must remove suffering from the world. The purpose of the Guru is to guide people beyond fear, karma, and ignorance into a state of compassion, liberation, and inner heaven. His final message is clear: stop causing pain to any living being, because enough suffering has already been experienced.

In the 20th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan Speaks of the National Waterway Dream Where Water Resources and Human Unity Merge to Transform the Nation.
National leaders have said that river interlinking may not happen. When a person hesitates to give even a pot of water to a neighbouring house, sharing water between states becomes even more difficult. However, a national waterway system will definitely be developed. Instead of focusing only on linking rivers, each state should first use its own water resources properly.
A National Waterway (NW) can support economic growth and may help people gain significant financial benefits.
Tamil Nadu has a population of about 6 crore people. Even if just one percent of them, around 6 lakh people, come together, they can bring a major transformation. Like leader M. Karunanidhi's “Namakku Naame” initiative, people’s participation can help develop a waterway system in Tamil Nadu. This is not a dream but a practical and achievable plan.
Floodwaters that cause damage in one region can instead be redirected for useful purposes across the country. We should connect and use water resources from each state effectively, not transfer one state’s water to another.
We should pray and practice discipline daily for this project to succeed. Young people are already conducting awareness walks in connection with Swami Vivekananda’s 163rd birthday. Awareness programs are also being held in Madurai through peace rallies.
This is a national development project, and everyone should support and implement it quickly. In a time when groundwater is decreasing and seawater is increasing, river water is essential for drinking purposes. Therefore, a National Waterway system is necessary.
Words alone are not enough. We must unite people’s minds and bring national unity. Everyone should come together and work for this goal.

In the 19th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan Says the Guru Dissolves Into the Velvi Only to Re-emerge as Divine Light for the Upliftment of Humanity.
You are sending Gurumahan for Velvi with great fulfillment and joy. Therefore, this Velvi, which begins in such fulfillment, must bring a positive transformation to the world and create a new dawn in your lives. That is why all of you should live by uplifting others. This velvi is performed with the noble intention of removing not only the sufferings and obstacles in your lives, but also the sufferings and difficulties faced by the world, so that everyone may receive everything needed and live joyfully.
This velvi will surely create a great and positive change for all. Each person should try, according to their ability, to conduct at least a one-day velvi or even a half-day velvi with the guidance of the teachers. Through this velvi, you will experience profound inner transformation. You will certainly begin to feel the divine power that exists within you. When that divinity shines from within, others will naturally look upon you with respect and reverence. As this divine nature radiates through you, harmony and relationships will also improve naturally.
I am very happy. My complete blessings to everyone. Santhosham, Santhosham, Santhosham. Remain happy always. As you leave now, I ask each one of you to stay joyful. We are here today, so while we are here, let us live happily. Who is there for you? The Guru is there for you. So leave all your worries with me. Every situation will transform into a positive one. May everyone receive everything needed and live in happiness. Complete blessings to all. I am truly very happy.
Whenever someone travels abroad, people wave their hands with emotion while sending them off. In the same way, every time I leave, it feels as though I am going somewhere far away after leaving all of you behind. Deep within, there is always a feeling of uncertainty about returning again, and that creates an emotional stirring within me. I control that emotion because if I begin to cry, all of you will also become emotional. Especially when children become emotional, the mother’s heart naturally melts as well.
After sending all of you away, I quietly spend some time in tears within myself. Then, when I enter the velvi, for nearly three days this physical body becomes detached from worldly feelings and awareness. Only after that, do other worldly activities return to attention. Invisible divine forces continue calling, saying that the time has come. There is a constant call to move beyond attachment to physical forms and enter the formless state.
I am very happy. Just as an egg breaks open after 21 days and emerges as a radiant chick, in the same way he will emerge before you as pure light, as a divine Jyoti Swaroopa. Santhosham.

In the 19th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan Tells Devotees to Experience Divine Transformation Through 21 Sacred Rounds Around the Pranavalayam.
In ancient times, great sages performed fire rituals such as Sathakandi Homam and Sahasrakandi Homam to protect humanity from natural calamities, dangerous creatures, and invisible deadly diseases like viruses. Through these powerful Velvis, they removed suffering and brought protection to the world.
When these rituals are performed from the Sahasrara state of higher consciousness, the bio magnetic energies generated within the Velvi unite with the cosmic electromagnetic forces and create powerful transformations in nature and human life. I say this with certainty because we are already witnessing such changes across many countries.
Look at Dubai. In earlier days, people there rarely witnessed rain, thunder, or lightning. But today, nature itself has changed, and heavy rain, thunder, and lightning have become visible even there. In the same way, great transformations continue to unfold throughout the world.
To ensure that destructive changes do not greatly affect humanity, we perform this Velvi for the welfare of the world. Every one of you who participates in this Velvi can experience its grace. Even if you simply walk around the Pranavalayam, you can feel the divine energy waves and the living bio magnetic vibrations emerging from it.
Some of you may experience warmth within your body. Some may feel an unexplainable melting of the heart. Others who walk around the Pranavalayam with deep attention and devotion may rise beyond ordinary sensory awareness and enter a higher spiritual state.
That is why I ask you to complete at least 21 rounds around the Pranavalayam. The first seven rounds help remove physical suffering. The next seven help heal mental suffering. The final seven help remove the deeper afflictions connected to the soul and life force. If you sincerely perform Thoppukaranam and complete all 21 rounds with devotion, divine grace and complete blessings will support the fulfillment of your heartfelt prayers.

In the 19th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan Says Harmony Within the Family Is the Beginning of Divine Transformation.
When an Ayyappa devotee begins observing the Karthigai vratham and wears the mala, a great transformation takes place within him. A person who may once have lived with worldly habits suddenly embraces discipline, self control, purity, and devotion. The moment he wears the mala, people no longer see him as an ordinary man, but as “Saami (God)” If devotion alone can create such deep vairagya and transformation, then the path of wisdom must awaken an even greater strength within us.
So what should we practice now? Let us at least hold firmly to one principle, harmony. Let us decide within ourselves, “I will live in harmony.” First, we must align ourselves with the Guru’s guidance. Only then can we truly live those teachings in daily life.
Instead of constantly pointing out the faults of others, saying, “He is like this, she is like that,” let us focus on correcting ourselves. The important question is not whether others are right or wrong, but whether we ourselves can remain peaceful and harmonious. If we can live with understanding and harmony within our own family, that itself is a great achievement.
When harmony blossoms within the family, it naturally extends to neighbours, society, and the world around us. But if conflict continues inside the home, it will inevitably continue everywhere else as well.
Therefore, from this day onward, let us choose to live harmoniously with everyone. Let us bring happiness to others and in return receive happiness ourselves. Let us help others live well, and through that, create a better life for ourselves too.
If we sincerely practice even this one simple teaching, Gurumahan says that he will take care of everything else. Through his Velvi, he will guide and protect all the situations and circumstances surrounding our lives.

In the 19th Velvi Discourse, Gurumahan Reveals How Nishtha and Tapas Differ in Nature and Lead Humanity Beyond the Fear of Space and the Limitations of Time.
Space and time both influence human life. The place we are in and the time we live in are considered important. Even today, before starting a good deed on a Sunday, people look at the timing and ask whether it is Rahu Kalam. The Guru may not know or care about Rahu Kalam, but loving disciples keep it in mind. If I go somewhere at 4:35, I may not feel anxious, but you become worried thinking, “Guru is going during Rahu Kalam. What will happen to him?” When fear keeps repeating in the mind, people begin to believe that something bad may happen. But for one who worships God sincerely, neither the day, nor the planets, nor karma can cause harm. When we hold firmly to the Divine, nothing can shake us. Many astrologers frighten people by speaking constantly about planets, Rahu Kalam, and unfavorable times. Whether the planets control us or not, these fears certainly control people’s minds. But time and planetary positions cannot overpower great sages and realized beings. Instead, they become supportive forces. When we are in divine consciousness and act with sincerity, our actions will naturally move in the right direction.
The date 21-12 was not chosen deliberately, yet whatever great souls think with purity happens for good. This shows that divine grace and the Guru’s blessings continue to guide us completely. If our intentions and actions remain good, then even if there is delay or difficulty, the final outcome will become greater than what we expected.
The highest way of living is to help others live happily. Every day, we should do at least one good deed. When we wake up in the early morning, we should pray with divine awareness that all beings live joyfully. When we greet others with folded hands and speak words of happiness, our thoughts, words, and actions become pure. Then thought itself becomes tapas, speech becomes tapas, and action becomes tapas.
No matter how much tapas a person performs, its true result must be harmony. Without harmony, tapas has no meaning. A husband should live in harmony with his wife, and a wife should live in harmony with her husband. When parents support and uplift their children, children too will eventually uplift their parents. What we sow first is what we later receive. Therefore, sow only goodness.
Do not think harm toward anyone even in your mind. Even the desire to take what belongs to another is considered theft in thought. Never think negatively about another life. Do not speak words that wound another person’s heart. Let your actions never cause suffering to any being. When these qualities exist, you become a noble member of the Paranjothi family.
Those who truly love the Guru will certainly follow the Guru’s words. The path of wisdom begins with listening, then reflecting deeply on what was heard, gaining clarity through reflection, and finally reaching realization. That final state is called Nishtha. It is even higher than ordinary tapas.
That is why in UPF, the state is called Nishtha. Tapas is often done with a desire to gain something in return. In many stories, people perform tapas to receive boons from God. But Nishtha is different. Nishtha seeks nothing in return. It is not practiced for rewards or benefits. It is the state where one says, “O Lord, whatever You have given me is enough. I only wish to realize You and know my true state.” That is why, in UPF, this spiritual state is called Nishtha rather than meditation or tapas.

In the 19th velvi discourse, Gurumahan, ask disciples to spread happiness and emphasize on the importance of Harmony.
I do not expect anything from you. I only wish to see you live in happiness. First, let happiness blossom within your family. Even if you do not come to GnanaPeedam, it is enough for me to hear that you are living joyfully with your loved ones.
When a Guru chooses to uplift someone, he willingly bears every insult, hardship, and struggle for that soul’s growth. At times, people go through pain without realizing that the Guru silently carries much of their burden within himself. The words, “Guru, you are everything,” place a sacred responsibility upon him. For the sake of those words, he endures trials, criticism, and humiliation. Yet none of these can truly affect him, because he lives in the awareness of Atma Swaroopa, the pure Self.
A true Guru does not rise through praise or fall through criticism. His only purpose is to elevate others. That is why he forgives endlessly and patiently accepts whatever comes from people. In earlier times, I acted with urgency to transform disciples, and some hearts felt hurt in the process. Later, I realized that I suffered more deeply for their pain than they did themselves. From that moment onward, I chose not to wound anyone unnecessarily.
Just as the head of a family carries countless burdens to protect and guide the household, a Guru carries even greater responsibilities for the spiritual welfare of many. Gnanavallal Paranjothi Mahan established a spiritual center, yet he avoided creating rigid systems of administration. He understood that power and structure can easily lead to pressure, division, and conflict. So he preserved simplicity.
Over time, many people began to say, “Gnanavallal gave me wisdom.” But the true purpose of wisdom is not pride or separation, it is to live in harmony with all beings. Slowly, that harmony faded. That is why this Velvi stands as a call for unity, oneness, and togetherness.
We do not look at the body, the mind, or the intellect. We look at the pure soul that shines within every being. The soul remains forever pure. Here, we do not see caste, religion, race, language, or social identity. All life is one life. To create a world where everyone lives in peace, joy, and fulfillment, the Guru stands beside you. So never feel abandoned or fearful. The Guru never leaves you. He lives within each of you as a guiding presence and inner feeling.
Through this Velvi, I seek to awaken the divine nature already present within you. As this transformation spreads from one person to another, it will eventually bring transformation to the whole world.
I am here for you. First, live for yourself in the right way. Then live for your family. Strong families build strong societies, societies shape nations, and nations together transform the world.
With the grace and support of the Guru, you can achieve anything in life. But true achievement does not mean destruction or domination. True achievement means creating stability, peace, compassion, and goodness. Extreme thoughts must soften into balanced understanding. Human hearts must become free from hatred and violence. Let us live by helping others live. Let us spread happiness and create happiness everywhere.
Today, the Guru gives you one message: Santhosham, Santhosham, Santhosham. Share that happiness with others sincerely, not as a ritual or empty phrase, but from the depths of your heart.
When you come to this GnanaPeedam, leave behind every label, caste, religion, race, language, color, and nationality. Clothes cover the body, but the body itself is only a covering for the soul. It is the soul alone that journeys toward the Divine. The soul has no color, no label, and no identity. In the same way, God has no fixed form or identity. Human beings create forms and symbols only as pathways to approach the formless Divine. Through those forms, we must ultimately realize the boundless and identity free state of God.
May you all receive complete blessings, lasting happiness, and inner peace.
