SriLaSri Ponmudi Kodi Swamigal - The Eternal Mahaan
The saint of Puravipalayam, who lived for more than 300 years and has touched so many lives, from the rich to poor people, with his smile and cryptic blessings. Kodi Swamigal was unlike any of the mystics or Siddha purushas, because of his ability to connect with people from all walks of life. He lived, on the terrace of an old palace in a remote village called Puravipalayam, yet people would travel great distances to seek his guidance. His teachings emphasised direct spiritual experience over rituals, and he was known for his practical wisdom, which helped people navigate their daily lives while pursuing spiritual growth.
Through this website, you'll discover the journey of Kodi Swamigal and the continuing influence of this remarkable spiritual master who showed that true wisdom comes not from book learning but from the direct realisation of truth.

The mystical journey of Kodi Swamigal
The information below is a compilation of Kodi Swamigal's mystical journey From the vast expanse of the sea at Dhanushkodi, Kodi Swamigal's final arrival to the terrace of Puravipalayam Palace
The Skanda Purana asserts that Dhanushkodi will remain a place of spiritual significance as long as the world exists.
The lone figure of Kodi Swamigal stood amidst the expansive dunes of Dhanushkodi.
Every day, on his way to Dhanushkodi, Varadarajalu saw a person meditating on a small mound of sand near the railway station. The scene reminded him of Shirdi Sai Baba.
Kodi Swamigal resided in Trichy for over five years. Throughout this period, he joyfully visited devotees’ homes whenever they requested.
Kodi Swamigal finally arrived to Coimbatore before proceeding to his final destination - Puravipalayam
From June 30, 1961, to January 10, 1962, Kodi Swamigal stayed at Ekambaram’s house in a 200-year-old bungalow with well-furnished rooms.
