ADI SANKARACHARYA:-Sankaracharya is considerred to be an avatar of Lord Siva. His life is full of miracles & incidents that clearly indicate his super human & diven qualities. Within a short span of thirty-two years, Sankara achieved the tremendous work of unification that would have taken others an entire life time or even more. His contribution to religion & philosophy & devotion is invaluable. He is called as “Shanmata Sthapanacharya”- the founder of six paths of worship – the wprship of Lord Ganesha, Surya, Lord Subrahmanya, Sakthi, Siva & Vishun. THULASI DAS:-We cannot predict exactly what is in store for us in future. God alone knows it & in fact He chooses His devotees & gives them an opportunity to serve Him. It is in this manner that a number of ordinary people & sometimes sinners too have into saints. A turning point comes in their lives at a particular stage when suddenly they turn towards God & never to their ordinary material life. The life of Sant Thulasi Das is an excellent example of this divine play.
