His Personal Library

"The library is the temple of learning, and learning has liberated more people than all the wars in history."                                                                                                                                                             - Carl T Rowan
He was an ardent and voracious reader of books of all subjects including Pharmaceuticals, Medicine, Literature – Tamil, English, Arts, Culture, etc. He had the practice of collecting books and paper cuttings and he has a huge collection of them in his personal library. He spent most of his free time in reading and
compiling important points from books for his use later.

A person with multi faceted talent, he has authored 3 books which are part of curriculum in Tamil university and also in major libraries in Tamil Nadu including Sangeetha Mahal Library. This itself is an achievement where time was a luxurious commodity for him in between his busy schedules, programs and travels.

Wherever he travelled, he keenly observed matters of common interests and noted them down in his diaries. He had visited China in 1998 and has recorded his observations as a Travelogue and compiled them and published in Tamil and English.

He penned his travelogue on his visit to China in which he keenly observed matters of common interests and revealed their meaning to us, in an easily understandable language in his book. He has given much information on Chinese Medical Practice, Herbal Medicines, Industrial Growth, Trade practices, Preservation of archeological importance, art and culture, family life and politics. It is very useful to understand about China, another closed country with an Iron Curtain in those days where details were far and few.
