Siddhi
(1)
Beneficent Dev-Yoni of great purity possessing the eight magical powers
(Siddhi), inhabiting the Bhuvar Lok. To them (according to the Gaayatree
Tantra, Chap x) Ganesh first preached the Tantra after he himself had
received them from the mouth of Shiv Jee.
(2) A Siddh is he who has earned some Siddhi - enlightenment, or paranormal
power etc. Those who possess this, are called Siddh. They are aware of Tri-Kaal -
past, present and future. They are Gyaanee. A lot many people whose prayers to
God are not heard, they pray to these Siddh and get their work done.
(3) A person is Siddh also who has perfected his spiritual development. Siddh
men are higher than ordinary people and can do some extraordinary things which
an ordinary man cannot do because of the powers earned through their worship
or Tap etc.
(4) To make something Siddh, means to attain the power of that thing. It
may be any Mantra, or any Devtaa. When that Mantra or Devtaa is Siddh to
somebody, he can do something extraordinary by using that Mantra or Devtaa.
This is also done by special worship, or Jaap of any Mantra etc.
