 Thavayogi   Gnanatheva Bharathy (born 5th March 1964) venerated as Thavayogi is an Indian yogi and a proponent of yogis of the siddhars tradition.

Early Life
Thavayogi was born as the eldest child of Mr. Murugaya-Kamalathammal couple in Karambayam village of Tanjore District, India. From his early years, it was evident to those around him that the depth of his spiritual awareness and experience was far beyond the ordinary. Even at a young age, Thavayogi was in search of self-realization.

Spiritual Life
As a strong Lord Muruga devotee, Thavayogi undertook various Bhakti rituals such as observing the Skanda Shashti fast for six days without consuming water and food and performs 250 km pilgrimage walk (paathayathra) every year to Murugan Temple at Palani from his village for many years, hoping to find the god within to guide him in his spiritual quests. Thavayogi left his home to start a divine path as a Hindu monk at the tender age of 17 with the inner guidings of the supreme reality as his spiritual guru. Inspired by siddhars (Tamil saints of South India),  Thavayogi has meditated and observed penance for years without desire for food, sleep, and companion. Through the zeal and sacrifices, he has achieved yoga siddhis from his countless efforts in Vasiyoga practice after many years of severe penance, silence, and fast. For at least six months of the year, severe penance was the norm for Thavayogi.

Spiritual Enlightenment
On the evening of the 23rd of February 2007, while meditating at his Ashram at Sivaganggai Tamil Nadu, Thavayogi had a divine vision and revelation of wisdom that guided him throughout his life.

Spiritual Teachings
Thavayogi has traveled and has conducted series of lectures and training sessions on yoga in India, Malaysia, and Singapore for several years to disseminate the ancient science of Vasi Yoga to his devotees for healthy life and spiritual upliftment. A collection of videos and audios of spiritual lectures given by Thavayogi can be found on Youtube channels named Thavayogi, Sivayavasi, Arvin, and Gnana Dheva Bharathy Swamigal.
