| The humble beginning of VUYIROLI
is due to God's concern enabled Mr. P. Rajkumar to see
the need of the dying destitute in multitude. In 1999,
he met a dying old man in his seventies, completely paralyzed
and lying under the Bridge near the Chennai Central Station,
Chennai, India. Rajkumar painfully recalls the unfortunate
incident, "The old man could neither speak nor move
and seemed to be lying there for a long time in dirty
clothes barely covering him. He had high fever and the
heat radiated from him to quite a distance along with
the stench of body waste! I bought him tea and some food
and rushed to call a doctor. However, by the time I returned,
"THE OLD MAN PASSED AWAY," aggrieved
Rajkumar with local help could only bury the mortal remains
of this old man.
The incident had a deep impact on Rajkumar and helped
him to receive strength from God to begin the compassion
work and God gave him many compassionate people to stand
by him to continue to rescue more dying destitute.
