Abstract

The Siddhas' assertion is that man is a part of nature, from which man cannot be separated, and that there is a dialectical relationship between nature and man. The appearance, style, dress, and actions of the Siddhas exemplify their doctrines. Siddhas say that the trick is to gain wisdom by engaging in activities and to know God beyond the soul hidden by ignorance. The theology of the Siddhas centered on human society and their divinity centers human activities.
