Abstract

In the tradition of Indian Philosophy, Saiva Siddhanta stands as an ever-living theory. It is so rich in its philosophical and religious aspects, while having Siva as primary God and source. The philosophy of Saiva Siddhanta in its Epistemological perspective looks at the whole cosmos as three realities, namely Pathi, Pasu, Pasam (God, Soul, Bondage of souls). This threefold reality is considered as truth. Wherever Saivese live, they follow their own religious and philosophical traditions. In the same way, one could see in the history that Saivese in Sri Lanka also had followed their own traditions. The Saiva Siddhanta tradition in Sri Lanka, has got its own uniqueness. The objective of this research is to identify and reveal the contribution of Srilankan Saivasiddhanta edited books. Hence This research consists of descriptive, comparative, and historical analyses in itself. In this research, evaluated Saiva Siddhanta edited books in SriLanka.
