I had always questioned why God who is all-loving was depicted as demonic and worshipped. In bringing us the story of the origin of Karupanasamy, a devotee and medium of his tells us that Karupanasamy was assigned to bring down several Asuras or beings with demonic characters. Hence he had to become one of them to destroy them. This answers why some of the Hindu Gods are depicted with weapons and take up arms to destroy these demons. These "Avatars" return to their original Self after these battles. But man, held on to these instances of transformation and began to worship them in these forms, depicting them in arms and offering them the food they took then till this day.
Just like there is one energy that runs various appliances, the one prime divine energy takes many subtle and visible forms. It is in the gross and the subtle. Initially, we deal with the gross and as we evolve spiritually we come in touch with the subtle. From the denser vibrations, we move on to the finest. But sadly we remain in the gross both bodily and what is worshipped.
Man pegs God and the Siddhas and traps him in his timeline. This is the reason Tavayogi says the Siddhas are beyond time and space. Imagine then the expense of the Prapanjam and the Divine energies. They cannot possibly be contained in a vessel or space without shrinking their powers. And so we have come to be little Napoleans carrying the Buddha within. We are capable of carrying out divine acts to a certain extent. The Siddhas through their practices and lifestyle upgrade the gross body of theirs to tap into the Prapanjam and receive its full nature and state and powers. Hence they are seen performing the unimaginable. These are tagged Siddhis. This is no magic but hard work and effort.
Coming under their shadows one gets to taste a bit of these powers. But his Ego soon steps in and takes on the credit. The Siddhas then back off. But just as, people carry on worshipping the deities in the Avatar, form and role they saw, even after the deities returned to their original state and Self, people keep coming to the gurus and masters who had demonstrated these powers once, not knowing that the Siddhas or deities had backed off, and were absent. These masters thrive on their past image.
Honesty is the cornerstone of devotion and spiritual standing. Once we lose this the Gods leave us to pay for our crimes. The Siddhas especially expect us to be honest. One lie no matter how trivial shall lead to more and more till we are branded a liar. It is a crime in their eyes to use the names of Siddhas to promote ourselves and our agenda. We should only have their agenda in our lives and execute them to their satisfaction.
