Tamil Siddha Literature

Tamil Siddha Literature is an ancient body of texts originating from Tamil Nadu, India, focusing on spiritual, medicinal, and alchemical knowledge. It is associated with the Siddhars, mystics who aimed for spiritual enlightenment and physical well-being through herbal medicine, yoga, and meditation. The literature is characterized by poetic verses, often written in cryptic language, covering topics like healing practices, philosophy, and the nature of reality. Siddha texts emphasize the unity of body, mind, and spirit, reflecting a holistic approach to life and health, influencing both traditional medicine and spiritual practices in Tamil culture.
