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
