AVVIYAR (TAMIL: ஔவையார்)

"It is rare to be born as a human being, It is still more rare to be born without any deformity, Even if you are born without any deformity, It is rare to acquire knowledge and education, Even if one could acquire knowledge and education, It is still rare to do offerings and tapas, But for one who does offerings and tapas The doors of heaven open to greet him."  — AVVIYAR (TAMIL: ஔவையார்)
