Meykandar Sampradaya is a sect of Hinduism which was spread by Santana Kuravars during 13th and 14th centuries in Tamil land. This sampradaya is also considered a sub-sect of Nandinatha Sampradaya, which flourished from the eight direct disciples Sanatkumarar, Sanakar, Sanadanar, Sananthanar, Shivayogamuni, Patanjali, Vyaghrapada, and Tirumular of Nandinatha. Meykandar Sampradaya is associated with the teachings of first disciple of Nandinatha – Sanatkumarar.

There are totally fourteen texts of Santana Kuravar and others admired by Tamil Saivites as Sastras of Meykandar or Sastras that perceived the truth. Though Saiva siddhanta is often described as a pluralistic philosophy, it declares itself Vedic Pure advaita claiming that it interprets Advaita as it is.[1]
