He has never kept a penny that he has earned for himself.<\/strong> While many may consider this as extreme, unfeasible or even impractical, the takeaway is the thought behind his <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">benevolence; Giving first. We\u2019ve been raised to believe that charity happens after our needs (or greed?) are sufficed. Charity is expected to be done from the spared income. Few accommodate it as a regular habit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perhaps, we need to take lessons on humanity from Palam Kalyanasundaram, a 78-year old retired librarian. He was born in<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Melakarivelamkulam in Tamil Nadu to modest parents. He lost his father when he was just a year old and was single-handedly raised by his mother who also sowed the values of charity in him from a young age. <strong>They were barely able to earn bread for themselves, but his mother taught him to share from whatever little bread they had with the needy.<\/strong> As he grew up, he became aware, and increasingly concerned about the gap between the wealthy and the impoverished. He realized that a good education was one way out of this adversity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He grew up to be extremely fond of our rich Tamil culture, heritage, and history. So much so, that he was the only student to apply for a Masters in Tamil, and the college management refused to admit him since there was no other enrolment for that course. They offered him various other specializations, but he was adamant. His willingness impressed the founder of MTT college, who not only admitted him but also sponsored his education. He went on to become a gold medalist in Library Science and MA in Literature and History. <strong>While growing up, Palam Kalyanasundaram battled with Falsetto, a condition wherein an individual\u2019s voice is usually higher than the average pitch range. He suffered from a major inferiority complex that drove him to the tipping point of thinking to attempt suicide.<\/strong> However, he happened to meet <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Thamizhvanan, a self-help author who encouraged Palam to look beyond his flaws and embrace life. Palam Kalyanasundaram swears by the advice he gave him during their brief meeting,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cDon\u2019t bother about how you speak. Strive to make others speak well about you\u201d<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A climacteric moment in his life happened while listening to the speech of Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru on a radio program where he was appealing to the nation to donate to the defence fund after the Indo-China war, 1962. As quoted by The Hindu,\u00a0 <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I was listening to Nehru on the radio requesting us to contribute to the defence fund. Immediately, I went to Chief Minister Kamaraj and gave him my gold chain. I was probably the first student to have done such a thing,&#8221;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kamraj was so moved by the generosity of this young lad that he felicitated him during a function held on May Day in 1963. He continued to pursue his education, and later joined the Kumarkarupa Arts College in Tuticorin, where he served as a Librarian for 35 years. <strong>Throughout his tenure, he did not retain a single rupee from his<\/strong><\/span><strong>\u00a0salary as a librarian for himself. To sustain himself, he did odd part-time jobs.<\/strong><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I am a bachelor and my personal needs are meagre. I am able to manage doing odd jobs in a hotel or a laundry. I simply do not wish to own anything.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The money he received from the sale of an ancestral property was promptly donated to the district collector for the education of orphans. His salary arrears of Rs. 1 lakh were also used for the same purpose. A sub-editor of Ananda Vikatan suggested Paalam that he should be a full-time social worker cum speaker.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #42bdcd; font-family: 'Work Sans', sans-serif; font-size: 24px; font-style: italic; text-align: center; text-transform: uppercase;\">&#8220;It was he who told me that I would do well as a social worker while engaging in some plain speaking on public service&#8230; But I decided I needed no publicity.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kalyanasundaram&#8217;s sole purpose of earning was to donate.<strong> To continue his minimalist lifestyle, he refused to get married.<\/strong> He actively donates and works for various child welfare causes.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;I have slept on pavements and railway platforms to find out what it is like to be poor, without a roof over your head,&#8221; he says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After 45 years of work-life, he retired. The first thing he did was to set up his Paalam foundation that acts as a connection between donors and beneficiaries, who wish to contribute in cash and kind. <strong>He utilized his entire retirement benefits fund of Rs. 10 lakhs for his foundation.<\/strong> His work majorly involves providing support for education, organizing free healthcare camps, blood donation drives, services to hospitals during emergencies, groundwork during disasters all-over India, rehabilitation of homeless, sick, elderly, and handicapped, as well as free counselling.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8220;We work on the principle of gaining everybody&#8217;s support. That is the reason why membership costs just a rupee a month (life membership is Rs.100). We take about anything used or unused &#8211; old newspapers, clothes and utensils &#8211; and reach these to people in need. We are sort of a bridge between donors and beneficiaries,&#8221; he exclaims.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>A noteworthy fact is that he was adopted as a father by megastar Rajinikanth in 2012. However, he refuses to accept anything but the love of a son from him.<\/strong> He won\u2019t even agree to stay with him even though the star is said to have persuaded him multiple times. <strong>Such is his detachment from materialism that when he was acknowledged as \u201cThe Man of the Millenium\u201d by an American organization and awarded a whopping sum of Rs. 30 Crores, he donated every single rupee of it.<\/strong> If this does not pop your eyes out, I don\u2019t know what will!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A person of Palam Kalyansundaram\u2019s stature is truly born just once in a millennium. To follow him would be an impossible feat to accomplish for most of us. <strong>However, even if we emulate 1% of his nobility, ours would be considered a life well-lived.<\/strong> If nothing, the least we can do is rise above our endless materialistic attitude, to think, speak, and act kindly with those around us. In his own sermonic words,\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe cannot sustain ourselves unless we contribute to society in some way or the other. I strongly feel if even one person does his bit towards social good, there will be some change. Everything is a state of mind. Finally, what do we take with us when we leave planet earth?&#8221;<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Note:<\/strong> <em>You can visit the <\/em><\/span><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.anbupaalam.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">website of Paalam foundation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to know about their work and support them.\u00a0<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Warren Buffet made big news in 2006 when he pledged to donate 99% of his wealth to his chosen five charities which also includes the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book.

It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.","url":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/author\/dolly-shah\/"}]}},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1683","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/10"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1683"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1683\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1693,"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1683\/revisions\/1693"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1684"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1683"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1683"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/celebglory.com\/doerlife.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1683"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
