About Swamiji
Swamiji maintains that one who surrenders
to Lord Hanuman, and leads a clear and devoted life, is blessed
and this blessing one can witness when they meet him in person
and he goes into a trance and tells them their past and future
experiences.
Kutty Krishanan is a master
philosopher whose words are as hypnotic and magnetic as his
personal charisma. He is the guru of many and the psychiatrist
to all. In times of sickness, worry, financial distress, relationship
problems, and the daily stress of life he is seen as the panacea
for all. From babies to adults they come from far flung places
in the world. Those who are not priviliged to meet with him
call him on his cell phone. What is so uncanny is his constant
love for humanity which at times is so profound that when
he is alone (a rarity) he sheds tears thinking about the miseries
of men.
A man of humble beginings and one of eleven
he grew up in near poverty in Kerala, India. His father was
his beacon and mentor. In 1980 V. Kutty Krishnan a mere mortal
human being of moral character and values had darshan (divine
vision) and blessings from late Krishna Moorthy's house at
Mamblamms, Chennai, in the "Deepam" (lamp). This
experience had an impact in his life after changes occurred
in his devotional life and he witnessed many miracles.
From here began his pledge to serve humanity.
He is seen giving freely of his time to those in need. In
his late thirties he was pressured by family to enter into
matrimony and the miracle is how Lord Hanuman brought him
the most understanding and prayerful wife. Mini is the epitome
of sacrifice. She is in so many ways so alike to Swamiji.
Her home is always open to everyone and there is always a
sumptuous meal awaiting the guest. She is the perfect complement
to Swamiji and never loses her temper and has demonstrated
the virtue of patience. Both rich and poor people are always
eating at their simple home. This is a wonder because in Indian
lifestyles there is a distinct caste system but Swamiji respects
humans as Gods creations and treats everyone equal. The peace
of the bhakta's calm resignation is a peace that passeth understanding,
and is of incomparable value. Yes every devotee has said that
it is the PEACE they feel from talking or being with Swamiji
that draws them towards him.
Swamiji preaches simple philosopy and speaks
to people in different languages for them to understand. Here
are a few examples of his teachings:
- Does the Lord care for all the wealth that
one may offer Him? Oh no! His grace lights on him alone who
offers Him love and devotion.
- Do not let worldly thoughts and anxieties disturb your
mind. Do everything that is necessary in the proper time,
and let your mind always be fixed on God.
- A man must live like a Lotus leaf, which grows in the water
but is never moistened by water; so a man ought to live in
the world - his heart to God and his hands to work.
- If your heart is full of devotion and faith the holy devotee
is blessed a hundredfold.
- Whatever you offer to the Lord is returned to you multiplied,
so take care to not offer anything bad.
In summary not everyone of us is fortunate
to have good friends, but those of us who have known Kutty
Krishnan will unanimously admit that we have found a real
friend and guide in our lives. We have learnt to view life
in a new light. We no longesr witness our problems as obstacles
to our growth but more as rungs up the ladder to a better
life. God chooses humble people to witness for Him, and Swamiji
is his instrument. His teachings of righteousness, doing good
always, and caring for others is valuable advice. If we can
live by his guidance, and more so, live by God's words then
hatred, envy, and evil will not exist and lasting peace would
be amongst God's ultimate creation - Man.
