Readers might wonder when I mention in these blog posts that Agathiyar or other Siddhas, gurus, masters, and deities came and spoke to us, how they came. I am equally baffled by these happenings, but it is all true. My journey on the Siddha path started with my very first Kaanda Nadi reading that included the Shanti Parigara Kaandam and Gnana Kaandam in 2002. Agathiyar addressed me then. He came as the written word. Then came a gap before my second reading, which arrived three years later in 2005, as I turned 43. Soon, there were regular and, at times, weekly readings with Agathiyar and other Siddhas calling me and addressing me through their Aasi Nadi readings, as opposed to the first Kaanda Nadi reading that I had initially sought.
When Agathiyar had me commission his bronze statue to be made in Swamimalai, and he arrived on our shores in 2010, he opened both his eyes in this statue in the presence of my family and Jnana Jothiamma, a Keralite devotee residing in the USA, who was visiting us in 2013. The image in the header of this blog, as seen above, carries this sacred moment when Agathiyar opened his eyes during the libation or Abhisegam. The first time he opened his eyes, only the left eye, was in the presence of Tavayogi Thangarasan Adigal as he brought me to Agasthiyampalli in 2005.
There were several Jeeva Nadi readings thrown in along the way, including via Tavayogi, who had one in his possession. After several dozen readings, it all stopped in 2019 when the pandemic arrived, and the Nadi readers packed their bags and left Malaysia for their homeland in India.
Agathiyar then began to come through, devotees to guide us further in the absence of both the Nadi readers and both my gurus after their demise. I have carried some of these messages on my YouTube channel. Finally, he put an end to coming through devotees, too, unless he had to clarify matters, asking us why he had to come as he was already living within and in all of us and guiding us. He then came during the moments when he moved devotees to sit in meditation, where he dictated to them his message.
Then he threw in the shocking directive asking us to even let go of him, asking us further, how else can we become one? He was bringing us from Dvaita to Advaita. It reminds us of Tirumoolar asking us to even shed our desire and hold on Lord Siva.
Agathiyar, who came as the written word, said to have been written in the way past as the Kaanda Nadi, and later began to write in real time as in the Aasi Kaandam, soon through the Jeeva Nadi appeared as golden letters appearing in the moment as one sits before the reader. If he had revealed to me that he would come within me while my soul shall reside momentarily as we celebrated his coming in the form of the statue, in later years when he began coming "in person," entering others, he merged in these souls momentarily to speak, address, and heal. He did not pick at random any Tom, Dick, and Harry to come and speak through, but chose only those who could resonate with and withstand his enormous energy, which was only a fraction then. He has since then moved into our homes and our hearts. He spoke. He healed. He joked. He laughed. He shared his sadness. He became a part of the family, sitting with us and chatting, and having food. Then he moved in us, moving us, and moving us to drop the expectation of desiring that he comes through another to address us. He is here to stay. It now stands at that.
