The Siththars of Eezham - An introduction

Author: தோழி / Labels: ,

In the generation of the Siththars, there are 18 high level Siththars who have attained the Ashta Maha Siddhi, they are worshipped by everyone. Most of these people belong to the Indian sub-continent. They are very ancient people.

I wish to share an information that most of  you do not know. As there is a Siththars category from Tamil Nadu, there is another category of Siththars from Eezham. They belong to the later period. As they were living isolated from the society, we do not find much information regarding them.

On seeing the informaton that we got, we find many surprising informations about them. We also find some information related to the female Siththars. They were the information about the Siththars who came from Tamil Nadu and the information about the places where the Siththars of Eezham have attained the jeeva samadhi.

Based on this information we find that there are four major sepulchers of the Siththars on the four directions. They are, Kadaiyit swamy's sepulcher at Yaazhpaanam in the north, Siththanai kutti swamy's sepulcher at Kaarai islan in the east, Periyaanai kutti swamy's sepulcher at the entrance of Colombo in the west, Navanaadha Siththar's sepulcher at the Naavalapitti in the south.. 

The prominent 18 Siththars of the Eezham are,

Kadaiyir swamy
Parama guru swamy
Kuzhandhai ver swamy
Arulambala swamy
Yogar swamy
Navanaadha swamy
Periyaanai kutti swamy
