Source: DSpace at Pondicherry: Siddha Cult in Tamilnadu (historical)Subramaṇiya Bhārathi (1882-1921 C.E.), a Brahmin by caste, was born on December 11, 1882, at Eṭṭaiyapuram in Tirunelveli District of Southern Tamilnādu to Mr Chinnasāmy and Mrs. Lakśmi.
One can find Tāntric elements in the songs of Bhārathi like Śakti worship, yogic ideas and other spiritual things which are connected with the Siddhas. Like the traditional Tamil Siddhas, Bhārathi also insisted on the worship of Mother-goddess in the name of Śakti which is common to all Siddha fraternity.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
