<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">Many chronic diseases, considered incurable in western medicine, can be treated successfully with Siddha medicine. Most medicines are for the most part natural and processed in such a way as to be readily absorbed within each cell in the body, giving it proper nourishment to sustain a long and healthy life. Healthy cells within the body can reproduce new cells that are just as healthy, thus slowing the process of aging from the inside out. </span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">The beauty in Siddha Medicine is that it rejuvenates the worn out tissues and prolongs our age.</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;"> When we eat selective foods proportionally, every day at the proper time it gives us the energy to fight back the sickness as though we take medicines . </span><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">When we need any anti bio tic our Siddhars had defined many herbal combination of decoctions .</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: #444444;">We can always combine some herbs and boil and drink; of course those recommended for particular sicknesses . Even the herbs consist of 6 tastes. When we fulfill the taste we lack in our body the chemistry of our body will become normal -free from sickness. </span><br />

Our forefathers followed the steps of the saints. When they say something which we felt not logical was meaningful . When we think of some things which our ancesters followed blindly were all meaningful and can be proved scientificaly now. <br />
So we respect our ancestors and parents by trying to understand the ways and lives of Siddars.<br />

<span style="background-color: white;"><b>Much less is known of the yogic traditions of South India as it was guarded in secrecy and taught in the traditional manner of guru to the spiritually mature disciple. In most cases the enlightened beings went on to evolve into the final objective of yoga and that was to merge into God in the physical form itself. These sages were called Siddhars. Many of these Siddhars maintained spiritual diaries and writings in the form of poetry from the time they actualized into discovering the divine with deeper meaning and the beginning of their journey into yoga while attaining enlightenment, and to the final state of transforming into light, merging with the Supreme.</b></span></div>

<span style="background-color: white;"><b>There are different Siddhar schools with some believing in 18 masters and some as Siddhar Rajaswamy's- 210 masters.

<span style="color: black;"> The history of Siddha medicine dates into the prehistoric period and ancient medical literature of Agasthiar and other Siddhars which exist today are only compendiams of older treatise that existed before. It may be handed over from Guru to deciple. Its origin and development is a matter of very remote antiquity. The period of Siddhars could not be fixed accurately but they existed even before the birth of Christ and the ancient reading says before 5000 years.</span></div>

The Siddha science is a traditional treatment system generated from Dravidian culture.

Parvati explained all this knowledge to her son Lord Muruga. He taught all these knowledge to his disciple sage Agasthya. Agasthya taught 18 Siddhars and they spread this knowledge to human beings.</div>

Those who attained or achieved the above said powers are known as Siddhars. There were 18 important Siddhars in olden days and they developed this system of medicine. Hence, it is called Siddha medicine. The Siddhars wrote their knowledge in palm leaf manuscripts, fragments of which were found in parts of South India. It is believed that some families may possess more fragments but keep them solely for their own use. There is a huge collection of Siddha manuscripts kept by traditional Siddha families.</div>

So they developed methods and medication that are believed to strengthen their physical body and thereby their souls. Men and women who dedicated their lives into developing the system were called <i>Siddhars</i>.
