Chathan worship — or Kuttichathan mantrika vidya — is not a public ritual tradition.
It is a guarded rahasya-vidya, held tight within those real chathan paramparas and pithams that understand its power to transform and its power to correct.
This secrecy is not elitism.
It exists purely for protection — protection for the sadhaka, and protection for the vidya itself.
Those who are deserving of Chathan Swamy’s grace are not chosen by:
social status
education
money
or outer qualifications
They are chosen by:
sat-bhakti
truthfulness in sankalpa
inner courage
capacity to face a devata who does not tolerate superficiality
Because Kuttichathan is not a “gentle, comforting deity.”
He is a direct-impact devata.
Chathan Swamy Responds to Truth — Not Superficial Devotion
When Chathan Swamy is held properly, with sincerity and satya, he responds with:
sharp blessings
immediate results
exact karmic precision
protective fire
and astonishing speed
He supports the truthful, the disciplined, the straight-spined.
Where there is integrity, Chathan Swamy stands like agni behind the devotee.
But when someone approaches him casually or emotionally, he does not act like other deities.
Most devatas simply withdraw when approached with immaturity.
They allow the person to drift in mental comforts and emotional illusions.
Chathan does not withdraw — he corrects.
If one treats him with shallow emotionalism like:
“Maa… Paa… Guru… Swamy… give me comfort… love me… please me…”
he does not play along.
He will teach the lesson:
“This is how a devata is respected.
This is how vidya is approached.”
Chathan Swamy does not abandon.
He educates — through impact.
This is the true nature of authentic Kuttichathan worship, something lost in modern commercialized spiritual devata / deity propaganda.
Chathan and “Satan” Are NOT the Same — Not Even Distantly
One of the most dangerous misunderstandings arises from people who:
do not know this vidya
do not know the Shiva–parivara
do not belong to any Chathan parampara
and have never touched real mantrika traditions
- doesn’t know tribal vidyas
They hear a phonetic similarity and jump to wild conclusions.
Let it be declared with absolute clarity:
**Satan and Chathan are NOT one and the same.
They have NOTHING in common.**
Their origins, nature, function, cosmology, and energy are entirely different.
“Satan” belongs to Abrahamic theology, with a completely foreign cosmology.
“Chathan” belongs to the Shiva–Parvati lineage, rooted in ancient Kerala mantrika vidya.
Chathan is:
a Shiva-gana
a child of Shiva and Parvati
a protector, and also a punisher
a karyasiddhi devata
a precision-oriented gana, not a fallen being
a being with a sacred place in Mahadeva’s order
There is no theological, spiritual, historical, or energetic overlap.
Only those disconnected from Bharatiya devata-tattva imagine such false links.
The Truth About the “400 Chathan Murtis” and the 390 Forms
In the oral transmission of Kuttichathan mantrika vidya, it is said:
Originally there were 400 Chathan mūrtis.
10 Chathans sacrificed themselves to protect Vishnumaya Chathan.
Therefore, 390 Chathan murtis remain.
This part is known.
But the deepest rahasya begins after this point.
**The complete names of the 390 Chathan murtis are unknown —
not to the public, not to internet scholars,
and not even to us who belong to the true parampara of this vidya.**
This is the bitter truth from the tradition.
Even in genuine lineages:
a few names are known
a few forms are recognised and worshipped
We will see these forms in a separate article.
But the full list of all 390 Chathans is not held by any living sadhaka, pitham, or lineage today.
This is why the “390 Chathan names” on the internet are all man-made fabrications.
All of them are manufactured to attract attention — they do not come from any mantrika parampara.
We say this with authority because we belong to the authentic parampara of this vidya —
and even we do not know all the 390 names.
This is the nature of rahasya:
Whatever is not meant for common hands simply does not surface.
The Depth of Kuttichathan Vidya Cannot Be Crowdsourced
Modern society wants quick mantras, instant siddhis, and easy lists.
But Kuttichathan, Kuttichathan worship, Chathan Swamy, and the mantrika lineage are rooted in:
discipline
sacredness
secrecy
responsibility
and truth
This vidya has survived because it was protected.
Not diluted.
Not sold.
Not exposed.
This article is only the outer doorway.
We will go deeper into the true Chathan tattva, forms, and the real inner principles in the next article.
