The meeting with Mamburam Thangal

He travelled to Mamburam Thangal with his friend Aoukoya.^{[citation needed]} It is believed he lost all of his knowledge by confusing in the authenticity of the Thangal as Sheikh Murabbe. ^[vague] He accepted Mamburam Thangal as his guide, and this meeting was recorded by Mamburam Mala.[3]
