After his Master left his physical body, Gnana Oli Thavathiru Bhaskar Siddhar entered a new phase of life. He balanced his deep inner silence with the busy outside world. While he spent his days serving free food (Annadanam) to thousands of people in Palani and Tiruvannamalai, destiny brought a wonderful partner into his life.

He got married to a highly advanced soul. She was not an ordinary worldly woman, but a Deepa Dharshini—a pure divine visionary who could see spiritual truths. Even though they lived as a family, their home felt like a sacred ashram. They lived like two streams flowing from the same divine spring. Together, they proved that a person can reach the highest levels of spiritual life while living as a regular householder.

The Movie Screen and the World

As a spiritual master, Bhaskar Siddhar began helping countless people who came to him crying about their worldly miseries, family problems, and illnesses. He always comforted them with a simple story about a cinema screen.

He would tell them:

“Think of a movie playing on a screen. In the movie, you see big fights, sad losses, and scary scenes. The characters on the screen cry and shout in pain. But when the movie ends, does the screen stay wet from their tears? Is the screen cut by the swords in the fight? No. The screen stays completely white, clean, and untouched.

You are not the sad character in the movie. You are the permanent white screen. This body is just made of the five elements—it came from the earth, and it will go back to the earth. The mind is just a passing shadow. But you are the Atma (the Soul), which is birthless, deathless, and always happy.”

He taught them that the mind only creates trouble when it goes out into the world. When the mind expands, it creates attachment to property, money, and relationships, which leads to suffering. But when the mind shrinks and goes back into the heart, it dissolves, leaving only the pure peace of the Soul.

The Secret of Deep Sleep and the 21,600 Breaths

To help his students understand higher consciousness, Bhaskar Siddhar explained a simple truth about daily life. He said that every single person experiences God’s peace every night during deep sleep, but they just don’t realize it.

He divided human life into three daily states:

• Waking State (Jagrat): Where the body, mind, and ego are active, making us chase worldly things.

• Dream State (Swapna): Where the body rests, but the mind stays busy creating dreams.

• Deep Sleep State (Sushupti): A beautiful state with no dreams, no mind, and no thoughts.

He would ask his students: “When you wake up at 4:00 AM from a deep sleep, you smile and say, ‘I slept so peacefully today, I didn’t know anything.’ If your body was resting and your mind was not thinking, who felt that great happiness? That witness is your Atma (Soul). In deep sleep, you are like a king sitting on a throne of pure joy, totally free from sadness. Sages and Yogis simply learn how to bring that same mindless peace into their waking hours through meditation.”

To achieve this peace consciously, he taught people the secrets of breathing (Vasi Yoga). A human being takes 21,600 breaths every single day. When we breathe out, the air goes 12 inches out into space. But when we breathe in, only 8 inches of that energy comes back. This means we lose 4 inches of life energy with every breath, which causes aging, sickness, and death.

The Master taught them how to stop this loss of energy. By balancing the breath through the left, right, and center channels, one can awaken the inner spiritual energy at the base of the spine. As this energy rises, it cleans the 101st nerve path leading straight to the top of the head. This prepares the body to merge completely with the Divine.

The Burden of Karma and the 8.4 Million Lifetimes

When people from nearby towns like Coimbatore and Tiruppur came to him complaining about their bad luck and destiny, the Master looked at them and said, “Most people living today will not get a human birth in their next life. You take this life for granted, forgetting that your soul had to travel through 8.4 million lower species just to get here.”

He reminded them of ancient spiritual songs that describe how the soul spends millions of years migrating through the bodies of grass, worms, trees, birds, animals, and snakes before finally earning a rare human body.

• Sanchita Karma: The massive storage mountain of all our past actions.

• Prarabdha Karma: The small portion of that mountain we must face and experience in this current life.

• Agami Karma: The new actions and choices we make right now, which can add more weight to the mountain.

The Master explained that karma is like a shadow that only catches you if you have the ego to say, “I am the one doing this.” The moment you realize you are just the witness—the screen, not the movie—the strings of karma break. He taught that the best way to clean our karma is through Jeeva Karunyam (showing pure kindness to all living creatures). A human who only lives to eat, sleep, and satisfy selfish desires is just an animal in human clothes and will slide back down to lower births.

Jeeva Samadhi and Jeevan Mukti: The Ultimate Truth

Over the years, Bhaskar Siddhar prepared several advanced students for Jeeva Samadhi—a sacred process where a master locks his breath, buries his physical body under the earth, and stays there for centuries in a spiritual form to bless the world.

Eventually, some followers started whispering among themselves. They noticed that the Master was helping many disciples enter Jeeva Samadhi, but he never gave this initiation to his own wife, who had been his greatest supporter. People with worldly minds wondered if she was left behind.

One day, the Master revealed the beautiful truth to his close followers.

His wife did not need the initiation of Jeeva Samadhi because she had already bypassed the need for an underground tomb. Through her pure lifestyle, absolute devotion, and her nature as a divine visionary, she had already achieved the highest state possible: Jeevan Mukti (liberation while alive).

While Jeeva Samadhi requires a Yogi to go underground to separate their consciousness from the world, a Jeevan Mukta is a liberated soul who walks openly among us. His wife did her daily chores, cooked meals, spoke to people, and ran the house, but her mind had already dissolved completely into the Soul. For her, there was no difference between inside and outside, life and death. She was a living, breathing temple of absolute stillness.

Recognizing that she had already crossed the ocean of worldly suffering on her own, Bhaskar Siddhar never interfered with her path. He did not give her a technique because she had already reached the destination.

Together, they stood as a beautiful example for mankind: one, a grand master anchoring his energy into the earth through service; the other, a quiet, radiant soul proving that ultimate spiritual freedom can be lived right in the middle of a happy home. Bound by an eternal connection, their voices, breaths, and souls remained permanently fused into the single, undying sound of OM.
