About Pulippani Siddhar
Pulipani Siddhar is an ancient siddhar and is the disciple of Bogar. He is a staunch devotee of Lord Shiva.
Bogar installed Lord Murugan’s Navabashana idol at the Palani Hill, and daily he performed milk and panchamirtham abhishekham to the idol of Lord Murugan. After some time, his disciple Pulipani siddhar performed puja for Lord Murugan, since his guru Bogar went into a samadhi stage.
He got knowledge in vedic subjects and also an expert in all kinds of arts. He is very much interested in spirituality, and also chants the glory of Lord Shiva.
After getting the darshan of Lord Nataraja he concentrated his entire attention on devoting Lord Shiva. He worshipped Lord Siva with ‘Vilva’ leaves. He got a pair of Tiger’s paws as a boon, in order to climb the Vilva tree and for plucking the leaves for the shiva puja.
Pulipani performed yogic meditation towards Lord Siva. He has gained the status of Siddhar, through the divine grace of Lord Shiva.
His one and only disciple, Pulipani (perhaps the only one who truly understood the sage), kept him company at the entrance to the underground cavern on the top of Palani Hill.
When Bhogar felt that his outer work was done, he entered the gateway of earth and stone and sat down in the darkness of the cave. Faithful Pulipani heaved a stone slab over the entrance, sealing Bhogar forever in the blackness of his earthen womb.
For thirteen generations Pulipani’s descendants have watched over that stone slab that marks the gateway to the underground chamber. Long ago, Bhogar’s little shrine was set atop that hallowed spot, and even today, is still worshipped by the vigilant sons of the faithful Pulipani.
