Virakta Siddaroda swamy was a great Hindu mystic of the Advaita Vedanta stream and is widely regarded as one of the greatest saints of Hinduism. He lived in karnataka roaming from place to place. The core of his teachings was the practice of Advaita Vedanta.
Siddaroda's LifeHe lived the renounced life style all his life. His mahasamadi is in Hubli town of Karnataka. People believe that he used to do miracles. They is a proverb in kannada saying Siddarodara Jolige Jagakkella holige. it means, if siddarodata begs, every one in the world gets the sweets!. He never practiced Casteism. He saw devinity in every existance of the world. His TeachingsHe is an acknowledged Hindu master of the Advaita Vedanta stream of Vedic thought, and has many followers throughout India, specially in Karnataka and Maharastra villages. This system of philosophy endorses the view that the 'true being' within each one of us is the Ultimate, sublime reality, the Brahman (the one without a second). What prevents us from realizing this is the ego, or the association of the mind with the body (and, from a larger perspective, worldly affairs). Therefore, this ego must be destroyed in order to realize the truth. Advanced thinkers would note that 'realize the truth' is a bit of a misnomer, because we already are the truth, and we only need to remove the false veil.
