Siddha Heartbeat: INVITATION TO AGATHIYAR'S JAYANTHI & GURU PUJA CELEBRATIONS 2013 AT KALLAR

Tavayogi Thangarasan Adigal became a disciple of Chitramuthu Adigal of Panaikulam, went on a pilgrimage all over India and finally settled in an abandoned building in Kallar. He later built himself a hut with the help of the locals and the village headman.

Tavayogi was instructed by Agathiyar to install the Aaru Aathaara Peedham.

Slowly his hut grows into an ashram. The local native aborigines or Aadhi Vaasi move into the surrounding homes built by the government.

Tavayogi conducts the annual Sarva Dosa Nivaarana Maha Yagam, which started with 5 pits and later on the instruction of Agathiyar was expended to 108 pits, in conjunction with Agathiyar's Jayanthi and Guru Puja.
