When the evening eventually came, all the Cows started their daily journey back to their village and Thirumoolar followed them carefully protecting them and making sure all the Cows reached their own homes safely. He also rejoiced with them by patting lovingly on their backs and dancing along with their wild movements. He was elated seeing the happiness of the Cows and believed he did the right thing. The Shiva Yogi who’s soul went into the body of Moolan woke up as Thirumoolar (Respected Moolan as he’s a Shiva Yogi) and the Cows were very happy seeing their beloved cowherd wake up again and rejoiced with him. Moolan suddenly woke up from dead as his body now contained the soul of the Shiva Yogi who kept his own body in a safe place for protection. So, he did one of the great Siddhis known as Paragaayap Piravaesham (The art of exchanging souls between two bodies) and exchanged his soul with the body of Moolan. He knew the only way to make the Cows happy again would be to make Moolan alive again. The Shiva Yogi who saw this sad scene got touched by the Love of the Cows towards their cowherd and decided to help them out of pity as he was very kind hearted. They circled his body licking him in various places trying to wake him and crying because they couldn’t. They were crying because of their cowherd Moolan of Saatthanoor laid on the ground dead.
After some time, when he finally decided to leave the place and started on his journey back via Kaaviri river, he came across a herd of Cows who were mooing under distress due to some unfortunate event.
He stayed there for some time captivated by the beautify of the Temple where Goddess Paarvathi prayed to Lord Shiva in the form of a Cow and was restored back to her original form when Lord Shiva, delighted by her prayers, came down and hugged her while raising together with her in the form of their ceremonial attire of Marriage. Later, he visited the Temple of Lord Shiva in Thiruvathigai and then reached the Temple of Lord Nataraj in Thillai (Chithambaram) where he stayed for some time.Īfter watching the private dance of Lord Shiva in the Temple of Nataraj of Thillai, he started on his journey and reached the Kaaviri river where he bathed and reached the Temple of Lord Shiva in Thiruvaavaduthurai near Kumbakonam. He visited many places during his epic journey such as Shri Kedhaarnaath Temple, Pasupathi Temple, Avimuttham (Kaashi), Vindha Hills, Thirupparuppantham, Thirukkaalatthi and Thiruvaalangaadu before reaching the great Kaanchi (Kaanchipuram) of southern India where he visited the Temple of Lord Shiva and then heartily chatted with the Yogis and Siddhas in that area. This time period is considered to be equivalent to the period of the Raamaayaanam. It was 8000 years ago (6000 B.C.) when he first came down to the southern India under the name Sundharanaathar and watched the blissful dance of Lord Shiva in the Nataraj Temple of Thillai in Chithambaram along with great saints such as Pathanjali and Viyaakkiramar.
He wanted to visit and stay for few days with his close friend and the first of Siddhas, Agathiyar and started on a journey from the Kailash towards the Podhigai Hills in southern India where he believed Agathiyar was staying at that time. He had 16 Disciples of his own, out of them, some of the key ones are, Kaalangi Siddha and Kanjamalai Siddha. He studied under the tutelage of Shri Nandhi.
He’s respected as the next one to the first of Siddahs (Enlightened Yogis) known as Agathiyar. There was a Shiva Yogi named Sundharanaathar in the elite Disciples of the Chief Protector of Lord Shiva’s abode in the Kailash known as Shri Nandhi, who has mastered all the eight different Great Sitthis (Yogic Powers).
