A public function was organized to welcome the Mahaswamiji gracing the college for the first time since its inception. Sri P.N Gopalakrishnan, co-ordinator of the Yatra briefly described about the establishment of four Peethams by Adi Shankaracharya, and the greatness of Sringeri Sharada Peetham and the Mahaswamiji. He added that the Mahaswamiji is particular about Vaidika Dharma and is an ocean of compassion and has been supporting many medical institutions. Sri Muralidharan of the Ayurveda College recalled the visit of Jagadguru Sri Abhinava Vidyathirtha Mahaswamigal about 40 years ago when the institution was very small. Today it has become a great institution, thanks to the support and guidance of Sringeri Sharada Peetham.

In His Anugraha Bhashananam, the Mahaswamiji stated that Ayurveda, the most ancient system of therapy covers the whole gamut of health science. The Mahaswamiji added that, for the success of any venture, one should possess faith, dedication and above all the grace of the Guru, and the PNNM Ayurveda College is a standing testimony to this.
