This denial of his godhood actually endeared him to many, though some wondered why he felt that he was not amongst ‘noble worshippers’, and why, with a life so auspicious, he thought he would be denied moksha and be subjected to rebirth and another life! Yet he was firm and no statues were erected, nor images carved.

For the six years that he was there, Sindhu Putra threw himself, body and soul, into the concerns of Dravidham—for its health, happiness and prosperity—and the results, as everyone could see, were spectacular.

The widely scattered nagaras of Dravidham and several dispersed areas came closer to each other, bridged by townships, separated no longer by impassable ravines, while gardens sprang from wastelands. Commerce began but not just between the nagaras of Dravidham. A caravan left for Sindhu, to the village of Gatha, carrying sandalwood, oil, cosmetics, painted pottery, garments, toys and ornaments of gold and silver, with a request from Sindhu Putra to Gatha to encourage the guilds and the merchants of Sindhu to come to Dravidham and trade for ‘they would find in Dravidham the same abundance and yet so different and charming.’

The people of Tamala began to call him ‘periyar’—the great one. He was their bridge to lands unknown. He criticized no one and nothing—neither an individual, nor a custom, nor a ritual, nor a doctrine. He had no message of enlightenment to offer and prescribed no rule of conduct or way of life. Still many chose to see much, not in the words he uttered, but the life he led, and the attention he gave, unasked, to their welfare. The one emotion they recognized in him, clearly, was his love for them that arose from a gracious mind and a tender heart. And that impressed them more and made up for the absence of flourish in his words and his refusal to engage in discussions on the nature of infinity. ‘That discussion,’ he would say, ‘may take all eternity, but meanwhile much work remains to be done.’ And clearly, they saw that his heart was set on spending every moment in the service of Dravidham and its people. In return, the people gave him their love in abundance and found comfort in his presence and were thrilled to claim him as their very own periyar and themselves as his people—Hindus, all.
