News India Live, Digital Desk: Saffron Clothing: Whenever we see Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath, his saffron cloth and a different sharp creates many questions in our mind. The traditions of the Nath sect he come from are very deep and mysterious. One of these is the most unique and surprising tradition- of the last rites. Do you know that bodies are not burnt in the Nath sect, but they are given samadhi in the ground? Come, let’s know the deep spiritual secrets behind this unique tradition.
In Hinduism, when a person dies, his body is dedicated to fire. It is believed that the fire purifies the body and merges into the five elements, which makes the forward journey ahead.
But the recognition of the Nath sect is completely different from this.
According to him, a Nath Yogi takes his body so much with harsh hatha yoga and meditation in his life that his body does not have an ordinary body, but one ‘Siddha body’ Becomes. This body has already been purified by meditating in the fire of yoga. Therefore, there is no need to clean it with fire again.
Not ‘death’, ‘living samadhi’
The Nath sect also believes that a Siddha Yogi does not actually die. He reached the peak of his practice ‘Live samadhi’ Takes, that is, he leaves his body and goes into a deep meditation state. His body becomes like a holy temple.
How is samadhi given?
Therefore, when a Nath Yogi leaves his body, he is not burnt. Instead, respectfully ‘Bhoomi Samadhi’ Is given. Yogi’s body to meditation posture, ie Padmasana or Siddhasana Sitting in the ground is done. This symbolizes that the yogi is also in a state of meditation and practice on his last journey.
Some more unique identity of the Nath sect
-
Big coil in ear: Nath Yogi wears big coils in his ears, which is called ‘Darshani Kundal’. It is a symbol of his initiation.
-
Greetings by saying “order”: They do not call each other ‘Namaste’ or ‘Pranam’, but “Order” Greetings by saying.
These traditions show us that the Nath sect sees life and death from a different perspective, where body is a holy temple of cultivation and death is only a change of stage, not the end.
