The Spiritual Dignity of our Siddhayogi




About Swamiji : 

Brahmananda Sri Sivaprabhakara Siddhayogi Paramahamsar is the disciple of 
Sri Pambatti Siddhar, the 18th siddhar. His devotees believe that HE has been living for Aeons of years. Swamiji is very well known in Kerala, where he has lakhs of devotees. He had lived in a lot of places under different names. Swamiji attained Samadhi at Omalur in Kerala in the year 1986. The samadhi rituals were performed by Brahmasri Siddharajan Swamiji. Although it is impossible to write everything about a Paramahamsar in a single document, a honest attempt has been made in the following article.

A Short Biography :


                                                          

The popular story told in Kerala about Lord Parasurama throwing the axe in order to indicate the limit of Keralam land is a well-known Malayalam proverb. Keralam is a land, which lengthens itself from Kokarnam to Kanyakumari. Moreover it was Parasurama who gave charity to sixty-four Namboodiri Brahmins as a mark of Parasurama's liberation from his sin for his having cut off his mother's head. These Namboodiri's made the salvation of Parasurama possible. Aghawormana and Azhwanzcheri Mutt are places of Parasurama's dwelling. Two important details must be grasped in connection with the names of above two time-honored families.
Aghawormanai is an abode of the family of Namboodiri Brahmins who hail from Varuruji Maharishi, while Azhwancheri is a place of Samuthiri family, which descends or comes from the same Rishi, but their origin of birth is a little different. There are differences between the two places and the two families associated with them. Aghawormanai Namboodiri's belong to the Suryavamsa and the Azhwanzcheri Samuthiri's come from the tradition of Agnihotra Vamsa (tradition or dynasty). The Azhwanzcheri heritage goes into the making of Prabhakara Siddhayogi. Aghawormanai had such a large area that no imagination could so easily visualize. There were about 917 desavazhis (which are equivalents to big villages) in Agawormanai.

Pambatti Siddhar Samadhi : 


Pambatti siddhar and Prabhakaran had maintained the spiritual relation of a Guru-Sishya. The soul of Pambatti siddhar went into the body of Prabhakaran and in the same manner, the soul of Prabhakaran went into the body of Pambatti siddhar. These two bodies became the same by the act of exchanging souls within themselves. This experience of one soul of a body entering into another soul of another body is known as metempsychosis or transmigration of souls. Then Pambatti siddhar and Prabhakaran came to Dwaraka and they stayed there for many days. They visited Athirimalai and met Athiri Maharishi. From there they moved towards Sankarankoil. There they installed the divine statue of Gomathiyamman. The Guru and the Sishya were preparing for a new spiritual life for the benefit of the mankind. As soon as the sacred ceremony of installing the divine statue was over, near a forest, known as Punnaivanam, Pambatti siddhar transformed his body and entered into a state of eternal living samadhi (Nirvigalpa Samadhi). His Sishya Prabhakara Siddhayogi arranged for the samadhi of his Guru in a very fitting and appropriate manner.

The Spiritual Dignity of our Siddhayogi : 



                                                        

The Kottayam Advocate, A.G.Menon and his faimily had the privilege of seeing Brahmananda Sri Sivaprabhakara Siddhayogi Paramahamshar for three hundred years. The books that he wrote record the valuable information that the Swami appeared to be the forty-five year Sadhu for nearly four generations of his family worshippers and observers. Maiyilpura Vaithiyan who comes in the nineteenth generation of our Swami lived in Krishnapuram. He was in the habit of worshipping Prabhakara Swami until the last day of his forefather's Samadhi.
Swami took nearly fifteen bodies and each body can be estimated as having an age of at least fifty years. The actual age of Swami can be arrived at in this way of calculating the average age of each body. This way of calculating leads us to determine the age of Swami as 724. That the age of Swami is 724 is known in his final Samadhi and this information is brought out in the Swami's Birthday celebration publication.
