Saiva Siddhanta episodes

  • Sivagnana Mapadiyam - Malarthalai

    Interpretation of religious texts is increasingly becoming trend in philosophy circles in India. The author tries to explain that hermeneutics as it is known has been already done in India on the older texts like the “SHIVA AGAMA “by the siddhantha scholars.

    Siddhantha itself means the deeper mind. They have the psychoanalytic contents. Topographical, dynamic and structural model of mind are explored in the siddhantha texts.

    Knowledge of psychology , theories of personality and their comparison into the siddhantha texts is an unenviable task. Because it needs expertise in both schools.

    If there is a space that connects both systems and that so close then it is quiet surprising. If this holds truth- a psychotherapy approach was present in these millennium old texts.  It is very interesting to note Monasteries have been helping the people with an ancient model of psychoanalysis and psychotherapy in the past...

  • Sivagnana Mapadiyam - Vinayagar Thuthi

    வாக்கு உண்டாம் நல்ல மனமுண்டாம் மாமலராள் நோக்கு உண்டாம், மேனி நுடங்காது பூக்கொண்டு துப்பார் திருமேனித் தும்பிக்கையான் பாதம் தப்பாமல் சார்வார் தமக்கு!

  • Sivagnana Mapadiyam - Thirukural

    அகர முதல எழுத்தெல்லாம் ஆதி 

    பகவன் முதற்றே உலகு.


    எழுத்துக்கள் எல்லாம் அகரத்தை அடிப்படையாக கொண்டிருக்கின்றன. அதுபோல உலகம் கடவுளை அடிப்படையாக கொண்டிருக்கிறது.

  • Sivagnana Mapadiyam - Sivapuranam

    தொல்லை இரும்பிறவி சூழும் தளை நீக்கி

    அல்லல் அறுத் தானந்தம் ஆக்கியதே – எல்லை
    மருவா நெறி அளிக்கும் வாதவூர் எங்கோன்
    திருவாசகம் என்னும் தேன்…

    (திருப்பெருந்துறையில் அருளியது தற்சிறப்புப் பாயிரம்)

    திருச்சிற்றம்பலம்

    நமச்சிவாய வாழ்க நாதன் தாள் வாழ்க

    இமைப்பொழுதும் என் நெஞ்சில் நீங்காதான் தாள் வாழ்க
    கோகழி ஆண்ட குருமணிதன் தாள் வாழ்க
    ஆகமம் ஆகிநின்று அண்ணிப்பான் தாள் வாழ்க
    ஏகன் அநேகன் இறைவன் அடி வாழ்க

The Vedas and the Sivagamas in Sanskrit and the Tirumurais and the Siddhanta Sastras in Tamil are the principal scriptures of Saiva Siddhanta. The four authors of the first eight of the Twelve Tirumurais are called the Samaya Acharyas. They are St. Tirugnana Sambandar, St. Tirunavkkarasar, St. Sundaramurthi, and St. Manikkavachakar. The hymns of the first three are generally known as Thevaram, and those of the last as Tiruvachakam.
