Talk: why some are kept out of light?. Inspite of having given significant contributions ,few could find no place in history. Atmananda Swami was a scholar.His name was Rama Panicker.He belonged to a Kaniyar family of North malabar.(Thalasserry- Badagara) Sree Narayana Guru had a well established affiliation with him, which enabled Guru to enrich his knowledge and expand strategic activities focused on social reforms. There after he was known as Athmanada sawmi.(1870- 1969)

Unfortunately like many other Kaniyar Scholars in Sanskrit, astrology and Ayurveda ,Atmanada swami's name also could note find any mention in the space of history notes. It is so surprising to see that most of the writers have conveniantly altered the history at their whims and fancy. Despite traditional teachers of kalary were solely belonged to Kalary panickers, a sub set of kaniyar, the same fact is gradually got suppressed and presented in distortion by history writers to make more contentious and enjoyable to their caste folk. Eminent Personalities among Ezhava such as Sree Narayana Guru and great poet Kumaran Asan were really indebted to some Kaniyar Scholars for their progressive knowledge acquisition.But none of those teachers were known to the subsequent generation. http://www.sreenarayanaguru.in/content/atmananda-swami

Please see the talk page at Kaniyar. Have a go at citing something because the sooner you do, the less chance there is of this sort of thing happening again. Thanks. - Sitush (talk) 15:38, 22 December 2011 (UTC)
