India history and geography
Maccēntiranātar (மச்சேந்திரநாதர்) refers to one of the Navanātha Siddhas mentioned by the Lexicon of Tamil Literature.—Cf. Kamil V. Zvelebil, Lexicon of Tamil Literature, E.J. Brill, Leiden, 1995, pp. 165-66.—The nine teachers [e.g., Maccēntiranātar] are considered representative of great teachers in this tradition or Parampara tradition—a succession of Teachers (Gurus) and Disciples (Shishyasa) in Indian-origin religions such as Hinduism, Jainism, Sikhism and Buddhism.
Maccēntiranātar is also known as: Matsyēndra-nātha.
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.
