He completed his early education in Trivandrum and later moved to Vayaskara (Kottayam) for his higher education in Ayurveda. He then mastered the science of Ayurveda under the tutelage of his Guru Narayana Moss. After his initial phase of learning and working in Vayaskara, he left on a pilgrimage to various sacred places throughout India with the desire of\u00a0\u00a0understanding the philosophy of Hinduism. During this phase of his life he lived in Kollur (Karnataka) for a few years with the tantris (saints) leading the life of a saint. It was during the 1930s\u2019 that Narayan Sarma visited Podanur (Coimbatore). Although the reason behind his visit is unknown, it was here he chose to settle down and serve the people with his knowledge in Ayurveda. It is evident from the dates recorded on the registration papers that he started his practice from 1935.\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7704205 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"7704205\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b387f3a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"b387f3a\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2b643ba elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"2b643ba\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Narayana Sarma then married Meenakshi Amma as a partner for life and work and they set off serving the people of Coimbatore. It is wonder how the duo prepared the innumerable medicines back in those days because today even with all the latest available techniques replicating the medical concoctions has proven to be a difficult task. Narayana Sarma attained heavenly abode on the 11th of November 1969. However he has left behind a rich legacy of knowledge about the science of healing in the form of palm manuscripts and books collected by him. Narayana Sarmas\u2019 passion and dedication towards the healing science was recognized by Association of Siddha medicine practitioners, Coimbatore, who honored him with the title \u201cVaidhyaBoopathy\u201d. He also holds another title \u201cVaidhyaBhaskaran\u201d bestowed upon him by the Association of Siddha medicine practitioners, Erode. In addition to these titles, his work and dedication was much appreciated by Mr. Manicka Velar, the then honorable Health Minister (the period when Dr. Nehru served as the Prime Minister of India).\u00a0<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-775b992 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"775b992\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1257162 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"1257162\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"570\" height=\"832\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/parvathy-amma-tknsiddha.com_-570x832-1.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-12300\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/parvathy-amma-tknsiddha.com_-570x832-1.jpg 570w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/parvathy-amma-tknsiddha.com_-570x832-1-206x300.jpg 206w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/parvathy-amma-tknsiddha.com_-570x832-1-441x644.jpg 441w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/parvathy-amma-tknsiddha.com_-570x832-1-300x438.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/parvathy-amma-tknsiddha.com_-570x832-1-150x219.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 147px, (max-width: 570px) 100vw, 570px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-483d507 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"483d507\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8160b7e e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"8160b7e\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f5ee1e7 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f5ee1e7\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"376\" src=\"https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/s3-1360x500-1-1024x376.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-7182\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/s3-1360x500-1-1024x376.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/s3-1360x500-1-300x110.png 300w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/s3-1360x500-1-150x55.png 150w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/s3-1360x500-1-800x294.png 800w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/s3-1360x500-1-768x282.png 768w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/s3-1360x500-1-990x364.png 990w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/s3-1360x500-1-441x162.png 441w, https:\/\/www.tknsiddha.com\/medicine\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/s3-1360x500-1.png 1360w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 360px) 147px, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-34d91e8 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"34d91e8\" data-element_type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9c03ceb elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9c03ceb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Today, his work is carried forward through the efforts of Dr. N.
