This story starts with a birth... 50,000 years ago, a child (Delviniyan) was born to a very poor family near a village called Tilaaiman (which some scholars say was near the modern village of Silaiman). They lived by the river bank and fished for food, and collected berries to eat. The family were so poor that the only place they could stay in the village was a Tallamaali point. These are total points of negativity (cursed places), where various Talas (negative dimensions) are very close to our realm (and may in some cases intersect). People who exist in these domains (then and now) suffer terrible ill fate and disease. As such, no one would live there by choice (unless they were a Tantric adept). Delviniyan's family were not Tantric masters, but were landless such that they had no other choice but to live there as all the land was taken by the village of Tilaaiman. Remember that this was a Tantric domain and as such people were trained not to lend each other aid readily (though some Tantric Aaiyyanists did).
Delviniyan's mother unfortunately died at childbirth and his father was killed soon after by wild animals. Some Aaiyyanist scholars and Schools also believe that Delviniyan's parents were both killed by wild animals when he was a toddler. Suffice it to say, most Schools of Aaiyyanist thought agree that Delviniyan was orphaned at an early age.
Delviniyan had no siblings or family and was utterly alone. It is at this point that the divine and material cross paths and the higher conscious beings direct their gaze into our realm and begin to see all in Us. Thus it was, that the Universal OM interjected and nudged a higher being (The Goddess Parvati) into the affairs of humanity.
As Parvati was meditating on the Tivinnain (a mystical Yogic technique to still oneself and allow the inner mind to listen to the voice and sounds of Brahman), She was directed by the Universal OM to stop and focus her vision on the present and future. Thus, the Goddess Parvati looked down upon this realm and saw the young Delviniyan lying by the river. The Goddess perceived rightly that this child's journey should not end with him dying of hunger, wet, dirty, forgotten and alone in the mud of the riverbank.
Some people argue that there are countless babies and children who die everyday throughout these ages and throughout the world. Why was this child special, that he had to be saved? The answer many Aaiyyanists give is that this child was not special... he was ordinary. He was not superhuman and not enlightened. He was not a descendant of a God nor a reincarnation of one. In this sense, Delviniyan represents Us as we are. If we make the wise decisions and seek enlightenment... it will find us.
And so Goddess Parvati perceived the baby Delviniyan on the riverbank, alone and helpless... and thus She designed a method to save him. Parvati sent a dream to Sage KalShivayan, the Head Teacher and Sage at the Temple/School of KutiKampalaam... a Kalaiyyan Tantric temple that housed many students. (As many Dravidian scholars know, the ancient Temple School of KutiKampalaam was housed and linked directly with the main Kalaiyyan palace of Kottaaiyyan where the great Queen Sironemaniyaa resided.)
Sage KalShivayan is famous in the history of Tantric Aaiyyanism. He was head of the Temple School of KutiKampalaam, and many Dravidian Aaiyyanist historians claim that this school was the precursor to the modern Tantric Abichaara school. He was said to be an arrogant and divisive teacher who did not tolerate people of low intellect, or people who did not comprehend the fundamentals of Jnana Yoga. He was essentially the embodiment of Tantric practise: selfish, self-centred, arrogant and dismissive of others. Now as modern Aaiyyanists, one must understand that Sage KalShivayan's personality was an expression of this ancient Tantric persona and Yoga. He was essentially living up to the ideals of Tantric Dravidian Hinduism and allowing the material and the senses to direct his path. As Aaiyyanists we must not condemn nor condone. It should also be noted that the modern Tantric practitioners do not follow or embody this ancient Tantric persona.
So it was this individual: Sage KalShivayan that the Goddess Parvati sought out and imprinted onto the Sage a dream. The dream that Parvati sent, instructed Sage KalShivayan to bathe in the river close to the village of Tilaaiman, at the focal point of the Tallamaali (the centre of negativity). Sage KalShivayan was sent the dream message and was directed to infuse his Karmic energy with the various Talas that were close to this focal point of negativity, in order to uplift his inner power and infuse himself with the wondrous nature of Talic energy. (Note: we are referring to his Karmic energy and not the Chakra energy.)
So the next day Sage KalShivayan went to the river to bathe. As he performed the rituals he began to feel the negative power rise up within his inner being. At the epicentre of the bathing ritual, Sage KalShivayan then experienced something new. He felt the presence of baby Delviniyan from the riverbank. The child was making a low cry due to hunger and illness and looked very feeble, but Sage KalShivayan realised that to find a child at the fulcrum point of a Tallamaali (negative space) meant something... something special that had not yet been fully defined in his mind. He thus decided to take the child and bring him to the Temple School of KutiKampalaam, and allow the nature of the Universe to flow into a harmonic solution that could not be discerned by one man alone, but needed the aid of many.
And so it was for five years that Sage KalShivayan taught and brought up Delviniyan as a student in the temple school of KutiKampalaam, and afforded him the best spiritual Tantric education that was accumulated in the Kingdom of the Kalaiyyans.
When Delviniyan first arrived, news spread fast around the Kalaiyyan kingdom that Sage KalShivayan had found a child at the centre of a Tallamaali point, and that his origin and future were unknown. This was considered an anomaly in the Tantric Dravidian Sciences. One should know that as this time (fifty thousand years ago) the link between Talas and Lokas was much greater than now. This was because Brahman's block was not yet fully formed. Thus, many of those who studied the Dravidian Sciences could still link fully between the dimensions and time to propagate energy such that one could divine the future and fate of a person.
These techniques of divination are still used today by modern Aaiyyanist practitioners, but 50,000 years ago the effect and accuracy were much greater. However, KalShivayan, the sages and teachers at the School of KutiKampalaam could not divine the future of this mysterious boy Delviniyan. It was if his future was masked by Brahman itself.
The news of this anomaly spread around the Kingdom and Queen Sironemaniyaa, an adept of the Dravidian arts was intrigued. She decided to meet Delviniyan on a constant basis in order for her to fully understand and study the paradox that was the young Delviniyan. The Queen herself taught Delviniyan the sacred scriptures, and inscriptions to open Lokas and Talas, and instructed Delviniyan on all aspects of the Dravidian Sciences. She did this in order to study and comprehend Delviniyan's meaning in her realm. One could say that this was a selfish self-centred act from the Queen, but this is the path of the Tantric Dravidian.
Having said that, this was not too selfish an act, as the Queen and Sage KalShivayan taught this young student the pure Dravidian Sciences. That is, they taught Delviniyan how Brahman and the Universe are put together, the Talas and Lokas, how they operate and how all the Beings in the whole of Brahman are organised and how they relate to one another.
And as they taught Delviniyan the inner and outer truth, they themselves began to experience the greater truth... that we are all one. And in turn, the teachers began to become very fond of this precocious child who was full of learning and innate understanding. For the student Delviniyan was a fast and holistic student, who absorbed what he learnt and created afresh new constructs from the Dravidian lexicon. In other words, what Delviniyan was taught, he would apply quickly and creatively. And this in turn taught the Queen and the arrogant Sage KalShivayan the silent beauty of humility and the richness of pride in having your vision being replicated and transformed by a child that you taught.
And so it was for several years that the Queen, the Sage and the child student became very close. An academic family linked absolutely by the wonders and mysteries of Dravidian Jnana Yogic Techniques.
