SHRI GOVINDA SESHAN , ADIYENS MATERNAL PITHAMAH, WAS A SIMPLE MAN WHO LAID EMPHASIS ON KARMA AND DISCIPLINE. RETIRED AFTER BEING A DEPUTY COLLECTOR AND LATER AS MANAGING DIRECTOR OF TAMCOF AND AAVIN, HE WAS A STERN DISCIPLINARIAN WHO WANTED PERFECTION IN ACTION. HE WAS A TIVRA ACHARYA BAKTHA AND SHOWED US IN ACTION THAT ACHARYA BHAKTI IS INDISPENSABLE FOR A MUMUKSHU. HE WAS A MUMUKSHU HIMSELF AND WAS ABLE TO TIME HIS DEATH INTUITIVELY AND WROTE A DOCUMENT OF THE KARMAS TO BE DONE AFTER HIS DEMISE. HIS STRESS ON DISCIPLINE AND HIS IRON LIKE CHARACTER TO STICK WITH HIS IDEALS , MADE HIM NEGLECT HIS HEALTH . HE USED TO DO MANASIKHA ARADHANA WHEN BODY WOULDN'T PERMIT HIM TO DO. HE BELIEVED TRUE TO HIS NAME THAT HE WAS A SESHA TO LAKSHMI NARAYANA AND WAS ALWAYS THINKING OF PARAMAPADAM AND PARAVASUDEVA DURING HIS LAST DAYS.
THE GREATEST LEGACY HE HAS LEFT US IS HIS BOOK OF LIFE ITSELF. FOR HIS ACTION SPEAKS GREATER THAN ANY WORDS.
