Sivagnana Siddhiyar Subakkam - Moolamum Uraiyum - Tamil | by P. Muthaiya Pillai/ Hindu Shloka Book
Sivagnana Siddhiyar Subakkam (Moolamum Uraiyum) is a revered Tamil text that provides an in-depth study of Saiva Siddhanta philosophy, one of the oldest schools of thought in Tamil Shaivism. This book combines the original verses (Moolam) of Sivagnana Siddhiyar with comprehensive commentary (Uraiyum), offering readers a clear understanding of the profound philosophical concepts within.
Originally authored by the renowned Tamil philosopher Arulnandi Sivachariyar, Sivagnana Siddhiyar delves into the principles of divine knowledge (gnana) and liberation in the Saiva Siddhanta tradition. Through a series of verses, the text explains the nature of the soul (jiva), the supreme divine (Shiva), and the path to enlightenment and liberation. In Subakkam (Moolamum Uraiyum), the commentary serves to clarify these complex ideas, making them accessible to both scholars and lay readers interested in spiritual growth.
This book is an invaluable resource for those seeking to understand the essence of Shaivism, exploring core teachings on the relationship between the soul and Shiva, the practice of devotion, and the attainment of moksha (liberation). It also addresses the path of ethical living, discipline, and the importance of inner purity in the journey towards enlightenment.
