What every words he said in Kalagnanam in truly happening in the world and what every words said in Atmagnanam is truly enlighting the humanbeings as knowning the actual purpose of life.

The Story of Veera Brahmendra Swamy - At a time, when there were no five elements, the Trinity, Brahma, Vishnu, and Maheswara the planets like the sun and the moon, and the stars like Aswini, Vishwakarma, who was self-born, shone with five heads, Sadyojata, Vamadeva, Aghora, Tatpurusha and Isana and ruled the Universe in Kritayuga. The five Brahmas Ruled the Universe, with the help of their subalerns, The Sun, Indra, Iswara, Vishnu and Brahma, during the Krita, Treta, Dwapara Yugas. With the Advent of Kaliyuga, people began to lead sinful lives and Dharma was on the Decline. Wicked people tortured the good and the pious, who raised a woeful cry to Parameswara and begged for his protection. The Goddess of Earth, being unable to bear the burden of the sinful acts of the wicked and evil-minded people who formed the majority, went to Mahavishnu, in Vaikuntam, and sought his help.

Place of Birth - Sri Veerabrahmendra Swami was born of pious couple, Paripoornayya Acharya and Prakruthamba, in the first decade of the 17th century at the hermitage of ATRI MUNI on the bank of River Saraswathi in Uttar Pradesh while they were returning home in their village from a pilgrimage to Varanasi.

He lived here for about 20 years.

Marriage - Sri Veerabrahmendra Swami left Banaganapalle and reached Kandimallayapalle in Kadapa District. He worked as a sculptor, carpenter and blocksmith for his livelihood and married a pious woman Govindamma, the daughter of Kotayyacharyulu of Peddakomarla. During his stay at Kandimallyapalle, he selected Siddyya, a muslim, and Kakkayya, a harijan, as his main disciples an imparted spiritual knowledge to one all, irrespective of caste, creed, sex, religion and region. Besides, he also taught the scriptures to the Muslin rulers of that period (Nawabs) and persuaded them to respect all the other religions.

Entering the Divine Body - It was written in the book Kalagnanam that he was in the human body till the completion of his austerities at Hariharapuram and then entered the divine body. The Swami performed many miracles while he was on a visit to the different parts of South India.
