Citations missing date November 2007 Ayyavazhi Ayyavazhi beliefs are those associated with the South Indian religious faith known as Ayyavazhi . Some of the beliefs of Ayyavazhi are shared with that of Hinduism , and others are unique to Ayyavazhi. Belief in the return of Ayya Vaikundar After the death of Ayya Vaikundar , a palm leaf text, the Akilattirattu Ammanai , was opened, and it revealed instructions and concepts of Ayyavazhi faith and practice. The section known as Nadutheervai Ula in the Arul Nool predicts that Ayya Vaikundar will return during the final judgement. Another verse in the Pathiram of Arul Nool states Breaking the earth, I will come to give you counsel , and yet another verse in the Thinkalppatham of Arul Nool states From out of the earthen cell, I will come out . Profundity upon profundity. Kali or Kalimayai Belief in Kali Yuga is one of the beliefs that permeate the religious ethos of the followers of Ayyavazhi . Though the belief in kali was in vogue in the sanskritic Hindu religious tradition as well, it operates in a different way in Ayyavazhi because of the reinterpretation. Taking the basic premise of this extant belief that the present age is a Kali Yukam , an age filled with the evil force of kali not the Hindu deity , Ayyavazhi assigned a new meaning to it. As per the interpretation of Ayyavazhi, Kali entered into this world as a consequence of the birth of Kalineesan , the last fragment of the primordial Kroni , a mythical being. Kalineesan, who settled on earth to reign over the age of Kali as the king of Thiruvithankur , became the visible representation of the evil force of Kali, oppressing the people because of this Kalimayai . People, groaning under the oppressive measures of Kalineesan, believe in Ayya Vaikundar as the God incarnate who had come to destroy the Kali not the Hindu deity and put an end to the Kali Yukam. Belief in fate and curse Belief in fate has a great influence on the day to day living of the followers of Ayyavazhi ... more details

Ravidasi Ravidasi beliefs are an off shoot of the Bhakti and Sant movements of the fifteenth century, a religious renaissance in India. Guru Ravidass , the founder of the Ravidasi faith taught the following principles The oneness, omnipresence and omnipotence of God, who is called Hari . The human soul is a particle of the Divine the different between the two is like the difference between gold and the ornament, water and the wave. The rejection of caste. To realize God, which is the ultimate end of human life, man should concentrate on Hari , giving up rituals. Birth in a low caste is no hindrance in the way to spiritual development. The only way to Moksha is to free the mind from duality. Pilgrimage and bathing in holy lakes is in vain. The Shri Guru Ravidas Mission London states that Ravidas is the founder of the Ravidasi religion. One who believes in Guru Ravidas philosophy is a Ravidasi. It is not a condition that one should have been born in the Ravidasi community to become or initiated as one. The holy scripture for the Ravidasi religion is the Guru Sikhya Sahib . To celebrate Shri Guru Ravidas Jayanti according to the Indian calendar, Sunday, Sukhal Falgin Parvithta. To meditate on Sohang or Har.
