===Pommair palayam and SivaPrakasar===<br />
Sivaprakasa Swamigal travelled widely all over Tamil Nadu temples. He met Santhalinga Swamigal along his way. They planned to see [[Mailam]]<ref name="murugan1"/> Murugan Temple. There they met Sivagnaana Balaya Swamigal.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.eprarthana.com/temples/villupuram/tn2117mailam.asp?tid=2117 |title=Mailam Murugan Temple, Mailam, Tindivanam |publisher=ePrarthana.com |date=2007-01-24 |accessdate=2014-08-17}}</ref> [[Perur Santhalinga Swamigal]] persuaded him to sing about Sri Sivagnaana Balya Swamigal. But Siva Prakasar told him that He will sing and praise only Lord Muruga not about human beings. On that night Lord Muruga appeared in his dream and told him that I am the one raised again as Sivagnaana Balaya Swamigal.<ref>{{cite web|last=Mohanram |first=Hariraman |url=http://mailammurugancarfestival.blogspot.in/ |title=Mailam Murugan |publisher=Mailammurugancarfestival.blogspot.in |date=2010-03-25 |accessdate=2014-08-17}}</ref> so nothing wrong to sing about him. He started singing the hymns on that day onwards.<br />
