The Avatar Makes His Advent
* The name of Swami’s father, has been spelt in different ways in different books. A large number of books spell the name as Pedda Venkama Raju, because Swami said this in a discourse. It has, however, been ascertained that colloquially the locals have been addressing him and referring to him as Pedda Venkappa Raju. In this book this popular spelling of Pedda Venkappa Raju has been adopted.
