PARISUDHA PARUMALA THIRUMENI. HIS LIFE WAS RIGHTEOUSNESS AND HOLINESS.. MERCIFUL TO POOR AND NEEDIES... (an example shortened here..) Once a rich Syrian Christian belonging to one Church in Kandanad diocese had leased a calf to a poor Nair-Hindu widow. As per the customs that prevailed at the time, it was the right of the (lessee) widow to retain the first calf and the milk of the first season and only the cow has to be returned to the owner. But in spite of this, when this cow gave birth to a calf, the rich man requested the widow to return both the cow and calf. Disregarding the justifiable request of the lady, the rich man forcefully took back the animals. The daughter of the widow who so fond of the calf, was very sad and she even refused to take food, such was her attachment. This prompted the poor lady to approach some friends of the rich man for a solution, but failed. Meanwhile this lady also approached our Kochu Thirumeni who was staying at the local Church and requested his help. On knowing the facts, Thirumeni advised the owner of the cow to return at least the calf, but his adamant attitude saddened the Holy Father. This prompted our Kochu Thirumeni to donate enough amount from his personal savings that was needed for buying a new cow for the widow. Both the poor lady and her daughter were very thankful and they become devotees of the Thirumeni. The young girl later in her life reached a very respectable position and was a frequent visitor to the tomb of our Thirumeni in Parumala.
