Sri Siva Jothi Mona Siddhar

Some months back friends of mine were returning by car to Tiruvannamalai and got lost whilst trying to work out a quick detour route back to the City. Their detour strangely led them to an Ashram located near a small village. They stopped at the Ashram and found that the Swamiji in attendance was reputed to be a Siddha who had certain powers of clear seeing, prediction and transmission of energy through Blessings. As it so happened the experience my friends had with this Swamiji profoundly moved them and they returned to Tiruvannamalai determined to keep in close touch with this Sri Siva Jothi Mona Siddhar. 




Subsequently here at Tiruvannamalai I started hearing other people mentioning meeting a Siddhar who resided in a small Tamil Nadu village and how helpful his insight, guidance and blessings were in their lives. Finally yesterday evening, I received word from friends that Swamiji would be visiting Tiruvannamalai on a short trip and I was invited to their home to come and meet him. Today, Monday April 8th, I did in fact meet with Swamiji and was able to put several personal questions to him. The meeting was informal with few people in attendance.



From what I understand Swamiji spent a number of years in North India meditating and performing tapas in the mountains. Nowadays he takes no solids and lives purely on a liquid diet.

I hope to receive more biographical information about this Swamiji. But in the meantime I am posting some photographs I took today and also the following contact information of his Ashram.
