Introduction
A staunch follower of Lord Siva, he was in the habit of chewing betel leaves. An expert in writing yantras and in giving them life. Never followed a set pattern of life. Used to worship the Lord, following his whims and fancies, and reached the pinnacle of yoga. Many jealous colleagues wanted to destroy him. Forced to protect himself, with his own specialised mantras, he wrote a Yantra and created an indomitable sakti. After some years he left Tanjore and joined his group of siddhas and sat in samadhi. The powerful sakti he left behind still, patiently, awaits his return. In her jurisdiction, in all religious festivals, her creater, Karuvoorar, must be given his due, or else she would come down on the culprits heavily. With the blessings of Karuvoorar, one can become an expert ‘Tantric’. One can also become an expert in oration, hypnotism and mesmerism.
