Nath Yogis
Nath Yogis are practitioners of a spiritual tradition rooted in the Nath sect, which originated in India. This group emphasizes the importance of meditation, yoga, and the pursuit of self-realization. Nath Yogis often follow the teachings of revered figures like Gorakhnath and Machhendranath, who are considered key saints in this tradition.
The Nath tradition combines elements of Hatha Yoga, Tantra, and Shaivism, focusing on the union of the individual soul with the universal consciousness. Nath Yogis often wear distinctive clothing and may practice various forms of asceticism, seeking to attain spiritual enlightenment and mastery over the physical body.
