IN MEMORY OF SAGARAN PONNIAH

During one of Pujya Sri Swamiji’s trip to Malaysian devotees organized Samuterathanam (sea bath) in Port Dickson during this occasion Sri Sagaran took owe to be an vegetarian for rest of his life and surrendered at the Lotus Feet of Pujya Sri Swamiji.

He also played key role in initiating security team to look after Swamiji’s needs. Sri Sagaran played a crucial role in formation of Sri Datta Humane Services in India and he also felt that similar kind of entity is much required for local Malaysian volunteers to serve local activities effectively. In 2013, with the blessings of Pujya Sri Swamiji and also with the

advice of Uncle Sri K. Narayana Rao, Sri Sagaran initiated & registered PERSATUAN

KHIDMAT KEMANUSIAAN SRI DATTA in Malaysia to serve the local ashram needs. He was appointed as Vice President of Sri Datta Humane Services in the year 2013. Serving Pujya Sri Swamiji was his top priority in his life. To name a few, he served Swamiji’s mission in Germany, Kumbhabishekam Sri Hanuman temple at Trinidad and Tobago, and organized a spiritual trip to Bali for Pujya Sri Swamij along with other devotees.

An approachable personality loved by everyone in the group. Never went back in attending team leaders meeting at some of the remotest corners in India. He had a special place in the heart of Pujya Sri Swamiji.

He breathed his last on 14th March, 2019 and merged into Pujya Sri Swamiji’s lotus feet.

Sagaran first came to know about Pujya Sri Swamiji after his retirement from United Nations Force in the year 1990 at Raja Rajeswari Temple in Ampang. Then Late Sri. Moorthy introduced Sri Sagaran to Swamiji. Initially Sagaran used to be an observer and later he became a devotee of Pujya Swamiji after few personal experiences. The very first question he

asked Pujya Sri Swamiji was “What I need

to do for you Swamiji” and Swamiji

immediately responded to him saying “just

stand beside me”.

Contentment and compassion are signs of your devotion to Sadguru.

10

Detachment and dispassion are the foundation for peace and bliss.
