Bronze State of Asan near to his Tomp
In a mid day of 16th January 1924; the greatest poet of Malayalam, N.Kumaran Asan was waiting for holy darsan of the Guru Narayana in front of his ashram at Sivagiri. Asan was wishing to discussion with his guru of some matters relating the SNDP Yogam. He was in hurry due to afraid of missing his boat in which he had been proposed a journey via Alappuzha to Alwaye where he had
been owned a tile factory. The time being gone and Guru was still in meditation. At last Asan was decided to go without guru's darsan and he entrusted these words for guru that " Asan came and went away " . At that night Guru Narayana wake up from the meditation and then he alarmed those words that " Asan go away forever " and people of ashram were exclaimed on guru's nature and those were not been knowing what was going on. Then no more words come out from the guru. Meanwhile in the river "Pallana", the boat named "Redimeer ", which one Asan used to travel ; was sinking in to the deep of the water. In the course of searching the body of Asan had been found after 3 days of accident and buried at the bank of the river.
