The Importance of Guru - Shishya Parampara in Nath panth
No full textThe worship of Lord Shiva and the application of sophisticated yogic techniques are the main focuses of the Nath Sampradaya (also known as the Nath tradition), a spiritual and religious movement within Hinduism. The custom, which dates back to the eighth century, is strongly linked to mythical saints like Matsyendranath and Gorakhnath. It places a strong emphasis on using Hatha Yoga, Kundalini Yoga, and other meditation techniques to achieve self-realization, spiritual awakening, and liberation (Moksha). The Guru-disciple relationship, in which the Guru imparts spiritual wisdom and esoteric knowledge, is what defines the Nath tradition. Additionally, the tradition encourages the development of mental and physical discipline, asceticism, and the use of mantras. The Nath Sampradaya has influenced the development of various schools of yoga, and its teachings continue to impact Hindu philosophy, meditation practices, and spiritual literature across India and beyond
