Venkatanaatha's generosity

V’s relatives try to dissuade V to stop running the vidya peeta but V pursues. V’s brother-in-law gets Srinivasacharya and his wife to assist V in day to day tasks. Mangalamma thinks her presence is no longer required but V and his wife say no but that they need additional help.

Once on the way, V and his wife and son sit in the same tree where V had taught the three ghosts a lesson. It all comes back to him about what he had told the ghosts (God had entered his soul then) but he thinks it is a dream.

V’s neighbour falls ill.The neighbour has a number of children and they are in poverty. So V’s wife gives milk to them all. Similarly, a few farmers from neighbouring village come to V’s house because of extreme hunger. V gives them all food and grains. V’s generosity is present for one and all.
