Siddhas - Masters of Nature
By Siddha Pal Pandian
Quintessence; rebellion; sanctity: just a few words to describe the ancient tradition of the Tamil Siddhas, as well as Pal Pandian’s book that delves into the very core of this spiritual heritage. With each flip of a page, the author takes his readers on an inner journey with the purpose of rocking their acquired and inherent conditioning to unfold and discover their authentic Beingness.
Pal Pandian’s writing elaborates on that journey, which dives into the experience of the Oneness of all life. It conveys the mysticism and the profound depth of the ancient Siddha Masters and Sages of various different schools of thought. Despite the fact that all the Siddhas have originally sprung from diverse lineages, the fundamental truth that unifies their numerous teachings arises from the universal Consciousness that resides in all Creation. They all came to the following realization: that what is seemingly going on in the outside world as the Macrocosm is only a reflection of what lies within each person as the Microcosm. Furthermore, the author illustrates the countless unique contributions that the Siddhas gifted the world with, such as healing, medicine, meditation, martial arts, alchemy, astronomy, and astrology, among other methodologies beyond the study of science.
Whether it is purely knowledge that the readers are seeking, or merely a glimpse of the Siddha’s practices, these teachings from Pal Pandian’s first-hand experience with the Siddhas are a great way to start their quest. His book unveils the way for genuine seekers to embark into the sea of Truth, which lies within each and every being in each and every moment.
"We all have the same basic nature, superficially and in-depth, and go through the same basic life experience, good and bad, solely for the evolution of consciousness. No soul receives special treatment. The differences we see actually arise from being at various stages of the process and not because we are truly different or separate, better or worse than one another... Every individual may be at different milestones but our journey is one, like rivers converging into the ocean."
"An attitude of absolute humility and devotional reverence for Truth is the only doorway to receive and imbibe the true essence of these sacred teachings."

Rivulets of the Absolute
By Stephen Grissom
There is a tremendous difference between knowledge and experience. Expression takes a different form when one has passionately dived into that which he or she communicates. This is what makes Stephen Grissom’s book eminently unique, which beautifully elaborates on his personal journey in the path of the Tamil Siddhas. Listening to his inner calling, Grissom left so much behind and began his voyage to India, where millions of people from around the world go in search of something far beyond what the physical world can offer. Upon meeting his Guru, Grissom’s life changed like never before. By learning and experiencing the ways of the Siddhas, he was introduced into a world of inner riches that are of immeasurable value. Along his journey, he practiced various methods of healing and was initiated into the path of yoga and tantra, all through the guidance and blessings of his Guru. The detailed way in which he describes those experiences will no doubt captivate those who long to know more about the mystical Siddha path.
"One who understands that water is both the drop & the ocean realizes the Self is one & all, the all-pervading Being. This is the Consciousness around which the microcosm & macrocosm revolve." Stephen Grissom
"All feelings & experiences of disconnect that we encounter in life, whether felt as a slight strain or deep distress, exist to call us back to our original nature." Stephen Grissom
“All of their vast profound knowledge, ranging from medicine and healing, yoga, tantra, martial arts, alchemy, to name just a few, is shared for the wellbeing of humanity.”
