There are Nadis like Ganesh Nadi, Brahma Nadi, Muruga nadi, tantra nadi, Shakti nadi, Atri nadi, Nandi nadi, Dhruva Nadi, jeeva nadi and Suka nadi. These nadi leaves are preserved by applying peacock oil on it on auspicious occasions. It is believed that these leaves are written only for the destined souls, who would seek the leaf, on their own accord at the destined hour.
The Maharajah Serfoji II of Tanjore, who was a great patron of the arts & sciences, stored these leaves in his palace library so they would be available for the future. The British retrieved these leaves during their kingdom and later sold them to some Indian families, who still keep them. These families carefully maintain them and continue to train people in the proper reading the leaves so that people may still benefit from the ancient advice of these Siddhas as well known as Naadi Family.
