Describe the beliefs and practices of the Nathpanthis, Siddhas and Yogis.

Answer»

The Nathpanthis, Siddhas and Yogis believed in the renunciation of the world. 

  • They criticised the rituals and other aspects of conventional religion and the social order, using simple, logical arguments. 
  • For them, the path of salvation lay in meditating on the formless Ultimate Reality. They stressed on intense training of the mind and body through yogasanas, breathing exercises and meditation. 
  • These groups became particularly popular among “low” castes.
