- Not to be confused with the African-descended Siddi people of India (though sometimes spelt in the same way).
Siddhi is a Hindu term for spiritual power (or psychic ability). These spiritual powers supposedly vary from relatively simple forms of clairvoyance to being able to levitate, be present at various places at once, become as small as an atom, materialize objects, having access to memories from past lives and more. The term became known in the West through the work of H.P. Blavatsky. The plural is Siddhis.
Siddhi also means liberation, or attaining salvation. Used to describe the demise of saints and ascetics, it is a state where the consciousness mingles with the Supreme Being and the bodily remains are cast off.
