Despite living in this materialistic and sophisticated world, the stories of disciples from our ithihasas and Puranas never cease to amaze us. Penpillai comes with yet another story of a woman's acharya bhakti. Sabari, a disciple of Matanga muni, awaited the arrival of Rama, solely for the sake of the word foretold by her Guru. She gave motherly care to Rama who was completely shattered after the separation of Sita and the death of Jatayu, exemplifying patience, perseverance and devotion towards her Guru.
