Two Yogis on Innersearch

Our Innersearch photographer reports: Yogi Jayanatha and Yogi Dayanatha shouldered lots of responsibilities on a daily basis. Before and during Innersearch they worked tirelessly to make sure Innersearch pilgrims stay, transportation, food and all coordination with Rishi Thondunatha's team work seamlessly. But this is what they do as part of their duty and responsibility apart from their intense daily sadhanas. Shown here are photos at Kadaitswami's Samadhi Temple in Jaffna, Both Yogis got on a different role during the visit to Jaffna at Kadaitswami's shrine carrying the Palanquin of Lord Siva with Uma Maheswari and Rajeswary. Kadaitswami's bronze murthy was placed in the front of the palanquin as the procession was taken around the temple perimeters

The yogis help carry the heavy bronze murtis at the Kadaitswami Temple. \"Kadaitswami was a powerful siddha, standing two meters tall, whose fiery marketplace talks converted thousands back to Saivism.\"

It is said he was a high court judge who refused to confer the death penalty and renounced his career at middle age to become a sannyasin.

Directed by his satguru to be a worker of miracles, he performed siddhis that are talked about to this day turning iron to gold, drinking molten wax, disappearing and appearing elsewhere.

Chellappaswami, initiated at age nineteen by Kadaitswami lived alone in the teradi at Nallur temple. Absorbed in the inner Self, recognizing no duality, he uttered advaitic axioms in constant refrain: There is no intrinsic evil.

\"It was all finished long ago.\"

\"All that is, is Truth.\"
