Gopalakrishnan: “Tie up the mad man overnight. Next day, a new plant will
appear near the temple. Collect one hand full of leaves from this plant and
hand it over to the priest. He would take out the juice inside the temple,
mix it with cow’s milk and do Pandeeradi pooja to the God, Then keep, three
chakras (The coin of Travancore) before the temple and take out the milk
and make the mad man drink it.
(The mixture would first become blue, then become dark red and then black
and later become yellow and then white.)
One hour after he drinks the milk, give him tepid water to drink. Then that
mad man would vomit a lot. Then in the noon make him eat the milk kheer
(paal Payasam) offered to the Yakshi. He would become all right.”
This was followed and the man regained his sanity. People who were mad were
then brought to the temple and the same treatment followed. Most of them
became all right.
People who have mental issues are brought to the temple in the previous
night itself. Then after the evening worship of the temple they attend the
saffron (kuruthi) worship to the “Bhootha kala Yakshi” which is outside the
temple. Then next day the treatment described above will be done at 9 Am.
Most of them become absolutely all right.
AND THAT MADMAN IS WHO WROTE AS GOPALAKRISHNAN ; A SATIRE EXCELLENT
THE GREAT MADMAN GOPALAKRISHNAN AND NARAYANASAMY AND ANOTHER NEED TO GO TO
THAT TEMPLE (if anyone guesses this is the same as Narayanasamy wrote and
Gopalkrishnan commented as satire -I am not responsible for their
thinking!!)
