I was born on 15.6.1952 as the
third son to my parents. My father
(Late) Mr. V V. Ramamoorthy of Karur retired as the Professor from Institute of Printing Technology Adyar , Chennai. I
studied at Chennai and took my B.Com degree in 1973. I am working in Southern Railway (Hqrs)

a stout flair for a deep study into the Indian Mysticism right from
boyhood. I came in contact with
Amarakavi Siddeswara in the year 1969 even in my school going boy. I had good experience with Amarakavi in the
task of editing, proof reading and publication works of his divine experiences
in the form of his two masterpieces namely Nija Ananda Bhodam and The Secret of
Tapas published 1976 and 1982 respectively.
Our contact was about 25 years’ old involving daily discussions on
various segments in Indian Mysticism and the essence of Human Evolution in the
Physical in the context of cosmic vs. personal.
Presently I am serving as the Hony. Editor of M/s Hayagreeva
Publication, Chennai 600005 and authored four books in English and Tamil based
on Amarakavi’s gospel and guidelines.

Question 2 Who is a Siddha? Please explain in
detail the Siddha way of life / Siddha’s cult?
There
are three stages of human evolution basically:
a)
Animal man, b) Man man – c) Man divine.
Man
losses all his divinity and omniscience wrap the moment he takes his birth and
first breath he is taken on earth from ether in compass. His attempt on its reverse gear to touch the
birth point is called yoga or challenge with nature towards god
realization. Any one who succeeds in this
battle is a Siddha. Such a Siddha is not
dependent on nature for breathing because he integrates breathing, thought and
above all speech, the genesis of human faculties and the functional basis of
human system. He is a Siddha who wins
over speech open / hidden in addition to arrest of thought and breathing
According to Amarakavi speech is god.
The adopt of this theorem in yoga is Siddha cult.
Question: 3.
We like to know about your guru Siddha Amarakavi. Highlights of his lif and spiritual guidance. In what way he differs from other spiritual
teachers? How did you became his
disciple?
Amarakavi, a Telugu Niyogi was
born at Pudukkottai, in old Trichy District on 19/10/1906 as a born Siddha and
amsa of Maha Ganapathy. He lived out and out at Chennai in domestic base only
and retired as cost Accountant from M/S Burmah-Shell.
He was an ardent worshipper of Mula Ganapathy
like the great Tamil woman poet Oovai. He experienced Brahma Bhava even as a
boy of ten. He had intimate contacts
with great Siddhas of yore especially the great saint Agasthya who helped and
graced him to touch great heights in tapas. He had good contacts even
telepathically with almost all seers and saints of this and last centuries. It
is interesting that the great seer Sri Chandrasekara Bharathy Swamigal,
the 34rd Pontiff of Sringeri
Saradha Peetam transferred all his powers to Amarakavi just a fortnight before
his Jala Samadhi in the year 1954. He
released two great titles 1. Nija Anandha Bodham and 2. The Secret of Tapas during
his lifetime leaving behind the task of publication of his other works
posthumously under my editorship by M/S Hayagreeva Publication.
He attained the spiritual
heights of a Siddha and heard the Sankha Nadham of Lord Sriman Narayanan in
tapas which heralded divine spiritual revelations in store for him.
Accordingly, he was graced with revelations both in Tamil and English and he
made a record of them which are now serving as the materials for the
publication work. He differs with modern adepts in Sri Vidya /Advaita
Enquiry/Ashtanga Yoga in that he condemns attempts only with rituals and
insists on the practice of Vacant Look theory in meditation. His discovery is “Speech is God” and his
books published and yet to be released are exposing the role of human speech in
human existence and survival in the map of cosmic evolve or God-realization.
The various dimensions of speech exposed by him are not said in so much detail
in any vedic or upanishad text. He says that his divine revelations reveal the
secrets of speech/Breathing/thought and their integral role known only to maharishis of yore who lived
about 5000 years ago.
The present spiritual leaders
are engaged more in rituals than practice of spiritual techniques with the
result that their knowledge is more theoretical than practical. Moreover,
Amarakavi’s new theorem is that Speech is God and Speech, if contained in toto
along with Breathing and thought, would lead one to integral yoga, the
spring-board for communion with God. Moreover, He revealed that Maha Shodasi
Mantra Siddhi is a must secret for communion with God and the aspirant should
be initiated into it by God Himself in this context. That way, he was initiated
into it by his tutelary Deity Lord Moola Ganapathy like Veda vyasa who compiled
the four Vedas through this Mantra Siddhi.That way he differs with other
spiritual teachers. This spiritual claim was enjoyed only by the ancient
maharishis of yore.
At Triplicane in Madras in 1963,
Amarakavi, in his retired life, became a tenant in a flat in the same premises
where my parents were living in another flat. I was a school boy then. Our
intimacy grew thick and Amarakavi adopted me as his follower/disciple to stand
in his shoes to continue the divine errand, as desired by Lord Moola Ganapathy.
Question 4 Please explain the basics of Sri
Vidya worship?
Sri
Vidya worship is an ancient method of God realization. The maharishis of yore were experts in that
field. According to Amarakavi the
secrets of Sri Vidya is not known to the aspirants of this age. Sri Vidya aims at success in communion with
God. Shodasi and Mahashodasi mantra
Siddhis are the prerequisites therein for divine revelations. Amarakavi was graced with such Siddhis
through the extreme grace of the divine as a result of his penance for the past
consecutive six Janmas. He succeeded in
integral yoga known of maharishis of yore and thus touched peaks of penance
beyond the region of Samadhi in thought free silence and became the recipient
of divine revelations. Saint Agastiya,
the mightiest among the renowned 18 Siddhas graced him then and there during
this progress. The integral yoga of
Amarakavi involves integration of thought breathing and speech force for entry
into omniscience of the eternal. It is a
region beyond Thuriya state where one misses himself in stout embrace with the
divine where the omniscience of the divine enters human system replacing human
intellect at standstill. Veda Vysa stood
there for all his recordings. In the
process of integral yoga Sri Vidya ranks first in the task of taming the
senses, tuning the inwardness and fusing one’s being and becoming through
mantra Siddhis for the inner voice to sprout in vacant look preceded by upward
breathing on Ajapa and Vaikari Siddhis.
This was possible only in Siddha cult where man becomes god momentarily
to be graced with omniscience intelligence of omnipotent value. The present day Sri Vidya is not sufficient
to contain speech to the core to lead to integral yoga as with Siddhas and Adhi
Sankara.
Question 5 please guide us step by step the
spiritual progress
In human evolution, man is able
to think, speak and breathe but only at cost of his spiritual and divine power
enjoyed in mother’s womb. At birth, man loses all his divinity once as a child;
he takes his first breath from ether. Man’s faculties like breath + thought +
Speech each independently works to his decay and death through seven ages of
human life. Yoga is to put the reverse gear thereto for their integral force
towards inwardness on total veto with one’s self-identity on earth as a man.
Question 6 What are the essential practices to
keep good health?
Good
health is gift of God in terms of fruits of good deeds of previous birth. However many engaged in yoga are promised
with good health generally. The
prerequisite for good health is purity at heart, thought and deed. Life free from worldly attachment,
selflessness, service mindedness coupled with meditative existence on earth
lead to good health. To cap the climax,
divine grace to exonerate from sins of past births is also required.
