Abstract
Manivasagar says, there is just one and only God. He specifies many epithets to the Supreme Deity. He sings, God is the Primary Deity for all living beings. SaivaSidhantha also describes, God (Pathi) is the primary thing among all. Manivasagar narrated that the Grace of God (Pathi) is required to detach the soul (Pasu) from the bondage (Pasam) and to reach the God. According to SaivaSidhantha, the cause of every birth is the effect of past karma which includes both-right and wrong deeds. Manivasagar has also mentioned the same as SaivaSidhantha. This paper talks about the relationships and characteristics of three primary saivasidhantha truths, that is pathi, pasu, pasam. It also talks about vinai principle, which is the primal cause for pasu tp undergo rebirth and also it suggests that by worshipping almighty a soul can cut this cycle of rebirth and merge with god. All the above concepts are illustrated with the quotes from thiruvasagam. Manivasagar narrated in his Thiruvasagam that The Soul (Pasu) should experience the impact of past karma, but at the same time, by worshipping the God (Pathi), the Soul (Pasu) will be freed from the Karma. This is also told in SaivaSidhantha.
