Author: தோழி / Labels:

In this samudrika lakshanam series, all the information that we see have been told by Agathiyar, Bogar, and Theraiyar. Considering the length of the post and to make it interesting, I have excluded the songs. In this post, we shall see many other information related to samudrika lakshanam for woman.
  • Take a rope/thread and wind it around the five fingers of a woman and stretch the thread from the elbow till the middle finger and measure it. If it touches till the tip of the middle finger then she will lead a happy and long life with her husband. And her husband will be in higher position.
  • If that thread touches slightly below the tip of the middle finger then she will give birth to intelligent kids with long life.
  • If the fingers of the woman are sharp then she will be trained or expertise in drawing, dance or music.
  • If the fingers are like the buds of a lotus then she will be very intelligent and will give advices to her husband.
  • If the finger prints in the palm of a woman are red in color it indicates that she is healthy, else if they are black in color it indicates her ill health very often.
  • If the carpal of the woman are good then the husband of that woman will be wealthy.
  • If the hands of the woman are similar to a lotus then she will be good at her character.
  • If the palm of the woman is not deeper then it is not a good sign.
  • If the woman has more number of finger prints in her palm or hands then she will remain happy without becoming a widow. 

We shall see the further details in the next post.

Samudrika Lakshanam – Real or fake pregnancy?

Author: தோழி / Labels:

Though we have seen that the samudrika lakshanam is related to the art of body, in his post we shall see some other important information related to the women. This is the information that should be known to every women and also the one that has to be shared with every other woman.

The Siththars say that there are two types of pregnancy. They are real pregnancy and fake pregnancy. We need not describe about the real pregnancy so let us see about the fake pregnancy.

The menses that has to be excreted every month will get collected in the walls of the womb due to many reasons and become like abscess. If the menses does not get excreted further then it would reside even more and will become bigger. This abscess will become bigger and move. Then after sometime it will come out by causing a pain like the delivery pain. If we identify them at the earlier stages and take appropriate medicines then we can prevent them from growing and take them out. If we fail to take care about it, as days pass it will grow and cause lots of troubles.

The Siththars explains the way of identifying the difference between these two pregnancies.
  • For the woman with real pregnancy there will be no movement in her stomach for three months (2 mandalams)
  • For the women with fake pregnancy they will feel the movement from the beginning itself
  • In the real pregnancy the stomach of the woman will grow step by step
  • For the women with fake pregnancy the stomach will grow within 25 to 40 days.
  • If we press on the stomach of the woman with real pregnancy, the notches that occurs will disappear slowly
  • If we press on the stomach of the woman with fake pregnancy, the notches that occurs will disappear in a moment
  • The real pregnancy will not lead to a period of over 11 months
  • The fake pregnancy will lead to many number of years too.

All these are not rare information in the modern science that we have today. But our ancestors who wrote all these information in their books even before modern science commences. It shows our strength in the medical field.

There are many information like this which has not been documented. We should attempt to bring out and make it useful for our future generation.

We shall see more facts about the samudrika lakshanam in the next post too.

Samudrika Lakshanam – Method to identify the gender of the baby in womb

Author: தோழி / Labels:

The samudrika lakshanam is related to the cosmetology is the opinion that all of us have. But fundamentally it is related to the body and anatomy that has been prevailing during our ancient Tamilians period. This is an art which tells about a person and the diseases he have got just by seeing him only. But the fact is that their count is being reduced slowly.

In this post I wish to share useful information related to women.

In modern science it is very easy way to identify the gender of the baby in the womb. But even before centuries ago, our ancestors has told the way of predicting the gender of the baby by just seeing the external features of woman in a very simple way.

If the baby in the stomach is a male kid then..
  • The right breast of the mother will be slightly heavy and bigger than the left breast.
  • If we squeeze the right side breast then we will get a white colored liquid.
  • She will feel that the baby in the womb has leaned to the right side.
  • Each time when she urinates, the urine will have a change.
  • The woman will use her right hand when she sits and stands.

If the baby in the stomach is a female kid then..
  • The left breast of the mother will be slightly heavy and bigger than the right breast.
  • The woman will use her left hand when she sits and stands.
  • There will be a slight change in the colour of her face.
  • The woman will feel very lazy and get attracted towards food items.

In the next post we shall see about the information about the real and false pregnancy told by the Siththars.

Samudrika Lakshanam – Face of women final part

Author: தோழி / Labels:

There are many controversial opinions about the samudrika lakshanam. As far as my knowledge, I do not think there are any researches that are being carried on this part. In future if the government or any individual attempts to take steps to make researches on these, then we might get many useful information.

I wish to share the information that this samudrika lakshanam is not only meant for human beings. We have found books related to the samudrika lakshanam for trees and animals also. For example Varagamihirar has wrote in his book about the information related to samudrika lakshanam for horses and elephants in detail.

In this post we shall see about the continuation of samudhrika lakshanam for women told by Siththars.

EYES
  • If the woman has small and bright eyes then she will attain all welfare in her life.
  • If the woman has eyes like a deer then the woman will be a good wife for her husband and will have positive thoughts. This kind of woman will keep their husband under their control.
  • If the woman has eyes like a fish then they will have independent thinking.

  • If the tip of the tongue is sharp for the woman, then they will be good at talking and will be able to attract everyone with their talking.

Samudrika Lakshanam – Body and Face of women

Author: தோழி / Labels:

The grammar of body must be one among the practises of the ancient Tamilian. As days passed this might have changed as a culture of beauty. It is not that easy to know about one’s mentality and nature of the body by seeing one’s external appearance. We shall see in this post how the Siththars have told about those for women.

BODY
  • If the woman has a body as soft as a flower, then she will be very healthy. She might be blessed with all the boons. Here the boon might be related to the health.
  • If most of the parts of the woman’s body are red in color, then she will attain fame that the entire World recognizes her.
  • If the body of woman smells like lemon, sandal, lotus and camphor, the Lord Mahalakshmi will reside with her.

  • If the face of a woman is attractive like a full moon and as bright as a raising sun and has big eyes, then she will be always happy and also she will be keep people around her happy.

EYEBROWS
  • If the eyebrows are short, adducent and uniform in a same line then the person will  be honest and good in character and behaviour.

FOREHEAD
  • If a woman has five lines (prints) on her forehead then she will lead a long life and have a good capability of thinking.

LIPS 
  • Usually red colored lips will do good. But I did not find any information in what way it is good.
  • The woman with round and fat lips will lead a nice and happy life.

Samudrika Lakshanam – Types of women

Author: தோழி / Labels:

In the series of the samudrika lakshanam series, next we shall see about the information for women told by the Siththars. Like men, women are also of four types says Agathiyar. Agathiyar narrates about the types of women and the way of identifying them in the following way.

பெருகுவதற்குப் பெண்ணிடச் சாதி நாலும்
peruguvatharkup pennidach saathi naalum
பிறித்து நாம் ஒவ்வொன்றாய்ப் பேசக்கேளு
piriththu naam ovvonraaip paesakkaelu
வருவதற்கு வத்தினிதான் பிற்குலமாகும்
varuvatharku vaththinithaan pirkulamaagum
யடவானிச் சங்கினிதான் சத்திரிய குலமாகும்
yadavaanich sanginithaan saththiriya kulamaagum
வறுவதற்கு வசியாளே சித்தினிதானாகும்
varuvatharku vasiyaalae siththinithaanaakum
வசனித்தோம் பத்மினிதான் சூத்திர குலமாகும்
vasaniththoam pathminithaan sooththira kulamaagum
நறுவதற்கு நால்சாதி குலமே சொன்னோம்
naruvatharku naalsaathi kulamae sonnoam

- அகத்தியர் (Agathiyar)

காணப்பா புலத்தியனே பெண்சாதி நாலும்
kaanappaa Pulaththiyanae pensaathi naalum
கருவறிந்து சொல்லுகிறோம் வரணங்கேளீர்
karuvarinhthu solukiroam varanangaelir

aanappaa pathminithaan karuppu vaaranamaagum
அருளினோம் நால்சாதி வரணம் இதுவாமே
arulinoam naalsaathi varanam ithuvaamae

- அகத்தியர் (Agathiyar)

Agathiyar says that there are four types of women and they are Aththini, Sangini, Siththini, Padmini. We can identify these women in the following way.

Aththini

He says that among the women of this kind are of superior category. They will be fair with beautiful eyes and soft hairs.

Sangini

These kind of women with yellowish face and medium height will have neck like shell. They will have a beautiful and medium sized body.

Siththini

These women who do not have a huge or low sized body will have a medium sized body will be in greenish color. their body will be warm.

Padmini

The women of this kind will have fat upper lip and hairs of brown color. These women will be black in color.

Like we have seen for men, for women also the Siththars have told the way of judging their nature based on their physical features like hairs, forehead, eyebrows, eyes, ears, nose, mouth, tongue, lips, teeth, tongue, chin, face, neck, armpit, breast, navel, back, hands, fingers, palm, nails, hip, thigh, stomach and genitals.

As we have seen for men, we shall see the effects of the parts individually in details whichever is good to share in public.

Samudrika Lakshanam for men – Final part

Author: தோழி / Labels:

I planned to finish the samudrika lakshanam series with 10 to 15 posts. But the information that the Siththars told about the samudrika akshanam is being found in abundance that I could not prevent myself from sharing them.

It is very difficult to write the information in just 10 to 20 pages, especially  when it has lot of contents to be written as a big book. But still by taking the length of the post and the excitement factors into consideration, I wish to finish up this series with this post.

In this post we are going to see about the effects of nails, chest, navel and back.

NAILS
  • Those who have awkward and colourless nails will always work under somebody’s control only. If they have rough and hard nails then the person will be poor forever.
  • Those who have a symbol like wheat on the thumb will be richest person. Those with broad nails will be coward in nature.
  • Those who have white spots on the tip of the nail,  then the person will have dignity and thoughts wil be sharp.
  • Those who have red mixed with many coloured spots on the nail will be very short tempered and easily catch fight with others.
  • Those who have black spot in the tip of the nail then the person would be a farmer. Those who have cross nails will be cheaters. Those who have small and round shaped nails will be adamant in nature.

CHEST
  • Those who have a broad chest like crescent moon then the person will be more attractive. Those who do not have such an attractive chest will attain success in everything he touches.
  • Those who have muscled chest without folds and cuts will be rulers. 
  • Those who have plain and uniform chest will be rich person. Those who have chest like apricot fruit will be very powerful. Those who have uneven chest will be unlucky and will be killed by weapons.

NAVEL
  • Those who have big navel they will be more interested in sex. Those who have navel like fish  will be more happy and peaceful.
  • Those who have lower navel will die early. If there is a fold on one side, he will lead a long life. If there are two folds, he will be rich and have self satisfaction.
  • If the single fold on the navel is present at a side rather than at the centre then the person will be happy for a long time.
  • If the navel is like the layer above the seed of lotus then the person will be a king. If he has three folds then he will lead the path for others also.
  • Those who have wide and eminent belly button will be poor and those without an eminent one will die in early age itself.
  • If the fold at the navel is straight then he will attain happiness. If the fold is aside then he will not be useful for women and unable to lead sexual life.

BACK
  • Those who have hairs on the back will have more amorous desire. If the person has a back like a tortoise then he will be a king.
  • If the back is like a horse then he will have more desire for women. If the back is without hairs and slippery like a crystal then the person will be happy living men.

With this the post Samudhrika Lakshanam for men comes to an end. In this post we shall see about the information about the women.

Samudrika Lakshanam – Face of men: 03

Author: தோழி / Labels:

All the specifications of the samudrika lakshanam may not be defined in a single day. It might have taken some hundreds years of researches.

Did this information upgraded to the current situation depending on the growth of human’s thought? There is no answer for this question. We are still attempting to collect the information said centuries ago. Hence those who are interested should attempt to collect those informations.

In today’s post we shall see about the way of predicting the nature of men based on one’s ears and tongue.

EARS
  • Those with wide ears unsuitable for the face will be weak and lazy persons.
  • Those with small ears will be patient in everything and will be capable of doing anything. But those with very smal ears will be irresponsible.
  • Those with red ears will be an example for justice and honesty.
  • Those with the best ears that is apt for the face will be intelligent and will be capable of doing everything. Also they will be courageous.
  • Those with long ears will be very strong and unfaithful and will be a food lover.
  • If the lower part of the ear is wide, then they will be wealthy. The money will come continuously to such people.
  • Those with ears of non uniform shape and good looking will attain fame and wisdom. They will also be gnanis.

TONGUE
  • If the tongue is long, it will give glory. If it is blue in color it gives more glory.
  • If the tongue is like a white sheet it is not a good sign. Whatever wealth they have they will lose.
  • If the tip of the tongue is sharp they will come up as a wise man and gnani
  • If the tongue is dry and pale, they will be the one who wastes all the wealth. They will not show much interest to work as a result they will develop laziness.
  • If the tongue is red in color, it is very special. They will be good at speaking and will be able to attract others quickly.
  • If the tongue is very rough then that person will be very much interested in eating, i.e., he would be a food lover.

In the next post we shall see about the effects related to mustache and beard.

  • If the persons eyebrow is downwards and squeezed, then the person will be impotent and  ineligible in enjoying the pleasure of women.

Eyes
  • Those with big eyes, will be lazy, intelligent, courageous, ill behaved and atheist.

Samudrika Lakshanam – Types of men and hairs

Author: தோழி / Labels:

We have seen previous post that the men are categorized into four types based on their physical looks. He has also told the way of identifying them in his songs. I am sharing the meaning of the songs only as the length of the post will be increase omitting the songs.

Vithavasthasupasaadhi

This kind of men will be of correct height and weight and will have a very good physique. They will always wish to eat food served hot. Generally they will be people with good and pure heart and will speak
only truth.

Payirabathi saadhi

The men of this kind will have a tall head with wide fore head. Also their ears will be larger than usual. These people do not like to eat hot food.

Saamasaadhi

The men of this kind will look very rough but they will be very kind in heart. They will be very good cultured men and will show more love and affection. They will enjoy and slowly eat the food served hot..

Piragaasaadhi

The men of this kind will have a good face and lengthy white teeth. Generally these people will be very cunning and lie a lot.

Apart from this, Siththars said about one’s nature based on their body parts.

For men, the effects can be told based on the following features i.e., hairs, forehead, eyes, nose, eye brows, mouth, lips, teeth, tongue,  ears, moustache, beard, jaws, face, neck, arm pit, clavicular, chest, navel, back, hands, fingers, palms, nails, hip, stomach, sperm, testicle and penis.

Now let us see about the effects related to some of the parts

Hairs
  • If the hairs are strong and soft to touch, then such men will be a great masculine and have a cool body.
  • If the hairs are hanging and soft to touch, then they will have a heat body.
  • If they have dense and fast growing hairs, they will be overwhelmed with emotion.
  • If their hair is in dark black and curly, they will have a high temperature body.
  • If the hairs are straight and sharp like porcupine, they will have a nature of fearing.
  • If they have silky hairs, they will be honest and can understand the problematic things quickly.
  • If we have hairs as soft as cotton, they will be very weak and will be a patient.

Surprising, isn’t it? As the post is going lengthy I shall stop with this and continue in the next post.

Samudrika Lakshanam – Types of men

Author: தோழி / Labels:

Though there are many books about the samudrika lakshanam in Sanskrit and Telugu, the books written by the Siththars are the ancient ones. I have found the books about the samudrika lakshanam in other languages also.

But in Tamil I did not find any books. The information about the samudrika lakshanam has been spread in the songs of the Siththars. All the information that I share in these posts are taken from the books of Agathiyar, Bogar and Theraiyar. The names of those books are

Agathiyar’s “Agathiyar yaema thaththuvam”

Agathiyar’s “Agathiyar 12000”

Bogar’s “Bogar 12000”

Theraiyar’s “Theraiyar nayanavidhi”

The samudrika lakshanam has been categorized for men and women. In both the genders there are various kinds of people and they have listed out the characteristics of each parts of the body. First let us see about men. Agathiyar has categorized men in the following way:

"சித்தியென்ற ஆண்சாதி நாலுண்டுகேளு
siththiyenra aansaathi naalundukaelu
செப்புகிறேன் பாலகா புலத்தியனேகேள்

- அகத்தியர் (Agathiyar)

Agathiyar says to his student Pulathiyar that men are of four kind and they are,

Vithavasthasupasaadhi

Payirabathi saadhi

Saamasaadhi

Piragaasaadhi

Samudrika Lakshanam – An Introduction

Author: தோழி / Labels:

I do not know the exact Tamil word for ‘Samudrika Lakshanam’. So I begin the post with this name itself. If somebody knows it let me know.

I have found very old books about samudrika lakshanam or the anga lakshanam in Sanskrit, Tamil and Telugu. Among them I am going to just share the information that the Siththars have shared in their songs in Tamil.

The modern science says that the characteristics of human depend on their genes. It has been proved from various researches that one’s look, nature, character are decided by the genes. Our ancestors have told the same as, “The beauty of mind is shown on the face”.

Most of them consider that the samudrika lakshanam is related to the astrology. As per the ancient Tamilians, that has been a custom followed in their daily life style. The art, samudrika lakshanam, has been in practice in every aspect from birth till death. The growth and the changes that take place in the body throughout the human life were said by the Siththars very clearly in their songs.

I found much information related to this anga lakshanam in the songs of Agathiyar, Theraiyar and Bogar. They have told for both men and women. They say that one’s physical appearance decides one’s nature
and their effects. I believe that they might have seen many people and verified with them. Then only they must have written this.

By making further discussions and search on the information that we gathered, we can know more about this. In my point of view I feel that this is mostly used at the times of marriage, birth of a baby and in identifying the symptoms of a disease.

We shall see about this art which has been vanished almost from the practice.

Sathuragiri Mountain – Series will continue!

Author: தோழி / Labels:

We cannot wind up the information about the Sathuragiri Mountain in just 24 posts. All the information that I shared so far has to be considered as an introduction only.

There is an opinion that the Sathuragiri Mountain is a land of secrets and the supernatural things. The attraction towards the unbelievable stories about the Sathuragiri Mountain from the puranas have hidden the real greatness of the mountain.

The discoveries of the great people who have spent all their life in researches and clarifications have been documented in the Tamil of their period itself. My interest is to document all those in current Tamil. At this point of time, I wanted to give an introduction about the Sathuragiri Mountain and hence I wrote these series about Sathuragiri Mountain. I strongly believe that I have did my job sincerely.

I started writing this post with hesitation only. Since it is a place which I have never seen before and so it was little tough to write. All the posts that have been documented so far are written for commercial factors only in the heart warming mood. I have told about it in the initial posts.

Most of the information about the Sathuragiri Mountain in the web is the experiences of the journey of an individual only. The only chance I have is the songs of the Siththars. The search of the songs about the Sathuragiri Mountain from the songs of Siththars is like searching for a lost pin in a grand festival. All these are not possible in one day. It is the collection of my study since ten years.

Initially my worry was that if all these information would match to the present day’s situation. But the friends who wrote on the comments and those sent emails said that all the information is honest and that brought me eagerness and interest to proceed further. So I wish to thank all the friends who encouraged me.

There is so much of information left out to share about the Sathuragiri Mountain. It requires the effort of one lifetime. Definitely an individual cannot do it. All those who are interested can unite and do.

I believe that the right way is not to just collect the information but to collect and compare them with other factors. So that it improves the trustworthiness of the research and then proceeding will be the proper way. With the information that I have shared so far, anybody can proceed to the further steps. If I have the blessings of the guru even I shall make attempts to do such researches in future.


Share this information with your friends who are interested. This will help in collecting all the information about the Siththars together. If we are able to collect all the informations about the Siththars and gather them as single one, so that it would cause benefit to the future generation.

With the completion of the introduction about the Sathuragiri Mountain, I shall start writing about each one of them in detail after a period of time. I thank for the continuous encouragement and support.

What do you think about samudrika lakshanam? Is it true? What did the Siththars tell about this?

Yes, the next post is about this only.

Yantra that gives wealth and grace

Author: தோழி / Labels: ,


I shall share about a yantra that helps in attaining all health and wealth for those who makes attempts. This yantra has been told by Karuvoorar in his book “Karuvoorar Manthreega Kaaviyam”. He says that this yantra would be useful to those who is going to start a business and to those who wants to increase the growth of the current business and also to anyone who wants to make money.

This is the yantra with hexagonal shape and the word “Sreem” as shown in the above picture. If we write the name of those who want to attain the benefits at the centre, then the yantra is complete. Karuvoorar says the way of drawing this yantra.

The square shaped sheet of 3 inch size made out of gold or silver or copper will be suitable to draw the yantra. To draw yantra on the sheet, we have to use the nail made out of copper. While doing this we need to do it with clean body by facing towards the east direction and after praying to the guru only, we have to start drawing yantra on the sheet.

This yantra has to be kept on a silk cloth on a salver and begin doing poojas on tuesday or friday. He says to light a lamp and sit facing towards the east direction and do poojas with the red colored flowers and chanting the following mantra 108 times.

"ஓம் ஸ்ரீம் ஐம் செளம் லம் மகா லட்சுமி சுவாஹா
om sreem ayim soum lam magaa latsumi suvaahaa"

If we do this pooja for eleven days then the yantra will attain the power. This yantra has to be kept in the place where we do business and pojaas has to be done using flowers and chanting the above said mantras thrice. This will cause a huge wealth and grace in that place says Karuvoorar.

By using this simple yantra, I wish you to achieve all the success.
