THE MOST COMPASSIONATE FATHER AGATHIYAR

Agathiyar had instructed the Jeeva Nadi Guru and three of his friends to be at Nambimalai on 31/07/2009, a Friday, where he (Agathiyar) would reveal many things. As promised Agathiyar had been revealing many divine secrets to this foursome. Although the message was for them, we too can gain a thing or two from these revelations of Agathiyar.

We are blessed to read about them on Velayudham Karthikeyan's blog at SITHTHAN ARUL.

சித்தன் அருள் - 143 - நம்பிமலை!

on Nambimalai on Thursday, 10 October 2013.

Velayudham Karthikeyan continues his posts on Nambimalai. Today's post was a beautiful one. Agathiyar reveals his most compassionate nature. I had to immediately translate his post so that it would reach the non-Tamil readers.

When one of the Jeeva Nadi Guru's friends mentions that he was currently doing Vaasi Yogam and asks whether he was doing it the right way; and wanted to see progress in his practice of this specific breathing technique that he had adopted and put into practice, Agathiyar answers that the said technique was designed by him and he was aware that he was practicing it. Agathiyar, as usual, ask that he remain patient. Agathiyar promised to reveal an alternative technique that shall take him to the next level. Agathiyan the all-knowing Father, says he knows when to reveal the next technique. Leave it to him he says. "I shall take care of it", he adds. "You are progressing well. You shall awaken the Kundalini", assures Agathiyar.

Agathiyar asks that he refrain from continuing this practice. "You have a family, children, and responsibilities. You have to contribute towards the well being of society. If you start the practice you should not have any interest in such matters. Otherwise, it would lead to havoc and danger", saying thus Agathiyar gives a gentle warning to his disciple. "Such man shall become useless to society. The time will come. One day, in the wee hours of the morning on a Tuesday, I shall send a Guru to coach you on the techniques of awakening the Kundalini. He shall instruct you on Kundalini and leave. You shall not see him again. The Guru could even be me!", surprises Agathiyar.

On how their lives would turn out to be and why only they were receiving these instructions, Agathiyar reveals that the foursome had served the Siddhas without any expectations. Agathiyar describes their past, "Spotting long beard, and mustache, they had roamed the jungles and hills as vagabonds, to the disgust of people around them, earning the wrath of the public and irked by them. Even the animals feared them. They learned the language of these animals, petted and trained them. But they were engrossed in only one thought to become divine and one with the creator."

"They had served the Siddhas well and as a result received the Siddhas blessings. Although they had to be born again because of past karma, nevertheless they carried the characteristics of a Siddha in them, in their very blood. That's the reason they have progress well in the path of the Siddhas in this life. This was only possible because of their past good deeds and merits of a positive nature."

"They shall not be born again", assured Agathiyar. "Their karma has been dissolved and they are heading towards becoming Siddhas themselves."

Here Agathiyar has a beautiful revelation for all of us. If before our pioneers on the path of Siddhas, especially in Malaysia had advocated celibacy and leaving the family, Agathiyar stresses that the mere act of leaving one's family, would not assure that he would attain Siddhahood. It is adopting the qualities of a Siddha in one's life that brings one to attaining Siddhahood. Siddhahood has been misunderstood, says Agathiyar. Only the Munis, Siddhas, Jnanis, and Devas comprehend this mystery and its secrets.

Agathiyar goes on to mention that he has the statistics on who are the Siddhas and all those approaching Siddhahood. Here Agathiyar blesses the four souls gathered at Nambimalai with Siddhahood. These four individuals had carried Agathiyar's carriage and thus Agathiyar, the ever compassionate Father assures that he will return the favor by carrying them around on a carriage.

On whether they will journey to Vadapulan, Agathiyar assures them that it will be realized and accomplished as it has been fated. "Even I can't change that", adds Agathiyar. Agathiyar ensures that they shall receive the Siddhas Darshan and goes a step further to arrange for them to receive God's Darshan too. Agathiyar reiterates that one who sets his eyes on God shall go blind or he himself will not exists thence (he will seize to exists). Here I see a similarity in my first Guru, Supramania Swami of Tiruvannamalai; my present Guru Tavayogi Thangarasan Adigal of Kallar; and his Guru Chitramuthu Adigal. They had all gone blind at one time in their lives and gaining their eyesight later. Had they seen the Lord too?

But here Agathiyar makes an exception for this foursome. Agathiyar promises that they shall have the Darshan of God and live to tell the tale. But Agathiyar cautions that it is not to be shared to all. That experience is to be cherished in the inner chambers of one's heart, nurtured, kept the warmth and to derive joy out of it.

Agathiyar repeats that the foursome believed in Agathiyar, and the rests did not. If one believes in Agathiyar then he shall receive his Darshan, assures Agathiyar. Agathiyar the compassionate Father does not find faults in others. Man can make mistakes; can be angry; might not give in or submit, and lose faith; all these are not wrong, Agathiyar tells us. But one who rises above all these negativeness, and holds on to God (Chikkena Pidithen), to those Agathiyar shall show a way out. Manikavasagar has used these exact words Chikkena Pidithen in a hymn to Lord Shiva in his TIRUVASAGAM. Listen to the hymn via SIDDHA HEARTBEAT AUDIO PLAYER below.

Agathiyar reveals that this is the age of the Siddhas. Just as Lord Vishnu, Lord Shiva, and Lord Brahma had passed on their responsibilities to Agathiyar, the Lords have passed on their responsibilities to the other Siddhas too. And Agathiyar concludes by mentioning that that's what they are doing in this age, up-keeping their responsibilities with perfection.
