![]() ![]() The journey of Siddhar Charithiram gave us the opportunity to have a glimpse of the life and works of the Siddhas. We looked at various Siddhas who have graced upon this earth with their Presence – their life and the wisdom they shared in the form of poems, couplets that are referred to as Siddhar Padalgal. Siddha refers to perfected masters who have achieved a high degree of physical as well as spiritual perfection or enlightenment. In the Guru Poornima special edition of series, we were blessed to also write about the great Siddha Avvai. The 18 great Siddhas that we studied during this journey are- Nandidevar, Agastya Muni, Thirumular, Bogar, Konganar, Machamuni, Gorakkar, Cattamuni, Sundaranathar, Ramadevar, Kudhambai, Karuvurar, Idaikkadar, Kamalamuni, Valmiki, Patanjali, Danvantri and Pambatti Siddhar. In a series of articles titled Siddhar Charithiram, published in our Parnika magazine, we have had the good fortune of expounding the life history of Siddhas from the Tamil tradition of “Pathinen Siddhargal”.
