"Natha parampara"
With
the divine blessings from sadguru SAI NATH, we visited all the
Navanathas samadhis along with our spirtual guru , who is blessed by
sadguru SAI NATH directly Sri Sri Sri SUDHAKARA MAHARAJ.
Our guru SUDHAKARA MAHARAJ has visited all the Navanatha samadhis for
Nine times from March 2011 to DEC 2011 every month on full moon day
(poornima). As for the information regarding Navanathas there is a well
called THE WELL OF KNOWLEDGE ,which is situvated in VRIDDESWAR.The
one who have blessed by Navanathas is permitted divinely to have bath
at the well . The significance of the well is that all the Navanathas
are used to have bath on the full moon day (poornima) at the time of
rising moon
The originator of Natha sampradaya Sri MATSTYENDRANATH MAHARAJ was devoloped Natha sampradaya there at the well and performed an yagna which was never before performed.
Such a beautiful powerful yagna was attended by AADI NATH (lord Shiva) at the request of Sri MATSTYENDRANATH MAHARAJ.
We can visit and have the blessings of AADINATH at VRIDDESWAR.
As per the natha sect the one who have bath in the well his inner body
shatchakras are automatically cleaned and what ever ailments physically
will be cleared immeadiatly. These are our personal experiences with our
guru. So many people are accompanied our guru and all we felt the same
divine experience.

in 1100k.m rtadius. The NAVANAThA sect is the most powerful sect, which
is not known to the present society and generation .we are being
receiving the divine bliss , blessings and perfect guidance of our
physical life as well spiritual life through Navanathas .Navanthas complete incarnation is SADGURU SAI NATHA
Navnath Sampradaya
The Navnath (Sanskrit: नवनाथ), also spelt as Navanatha and Nao Nath, are the nine Hindu saints, Masters or Naths on whom the Navnath Sampradaya, the lineage of the nine gurus is based. They are worshipped collectively as well as individually.
The nine teachers,
collectively known as Navnaths, are considered representative of great
teachers in this tradition or parampara:
The Navnath Sampradaya or 'Navnath Parampara', is a Hindu sampradaya, and a parampara, tradition based upon the lineage of the Navnaths, from the Nath Sampradaya .
The unique spiritual attainments of this legendary figure are
mentioned in the Bhagavata Purana, the Mahabharata and also in some
later Upanishads. Others hold that it is an offshoot of the Hatha Yoga.
The nine Naths are the incarnations of Nine Narayanas who help Lord
Narayan in taking care of the worldly activities. Lord Krishna had
summoned the nine Narayans to his court for deciding the establishment
of Nath Sampraday.
The teachings of the Nath Sampradaya have, over the centuries, become
labyrinthine in complexity and have assumed different forms in
different parts of India. Some Gurus of the Sampradaya lay stress on
bhakti, devotion; others on jnana, knowledge; still others on yoga, the
union with the ultimate. In the fourteenth century we find Svatmarama
Svami, the great Hathayogin, bemoaning ‘the darkness arising out of
multiplicity of opinions’ to dispel which he lit the lamp of his famous
work Hathayogapradipika.
According to some learned commentators, the Nath Gurus propound that
the entire creation is born out of nada (sound), the divine principle,
and bindu (light), the physical principle and the Supreme Reality from
which these two principles emanate is Shiva. Liberation according to
them is merging of the soul into Shiva (according to Hinduism Shiva and
Vishnu are one, not two separate powers) through the process of laya,
dissolution of the human ego, the sense of I-ness. In the day-to-day
instructions to their devotees, however, the Nath Gurus seldom refer to
the metaphysics discovered by the scholars in their teachings. In fact
their approach is totally non-metaphysical, simple and direct. While the
chanting of sacred hymns and devotional songs as well as the worship of
the idols is a traditional feature of the sect, its teaching emphasises
that the Supreme Reality can be realised only within the heart.
This tradition, believes Rishi Dattatreya, an incarnation of the Hindu trinity Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva to be its first teacher.
There is a book on these 9 great souls called "Navnath pothi". It has
40 chapters. This book narrates the Navnaths' births, their lives and
deeds. As the Navnath are strongly worshiped in Maharashtra, the book is
written in Marathi. It is believed that reading it in a specific manner
is beneficial to human mind, soul and body.
The coming of the Navnath - or nine prophets - is mentioned in the Mahabharata. Krishna
called a meeting of all demi-gods, angels and saints to give his
message of how he would continue his message of spreading good after his
mission is over on earth. Krishna said he would send his own light in
the form of nine saints or prophets, who will go to different parts of
earth and throughout the universe where life exists. Lord Krishna also
mentions that these prophets or saints will spread the message of Love,
overcoming obstacles in order to unite with Mahavishnu or Shiva or
Shakti. Krishna said that they would help only those who have good souls
and true believers.
The Navnath sampradaya spreads the message of Krishna that God exists
everywhere and not just in a particular form or lack thereof. The
Avatar of Dattatreya (Unified form of the trinity) came on the mission
on earth to dispel confusion of earthlings who thought the three are
different. Datta Guru Dattatreya is the first teacher, initiator of Navnath Sampradaya who gave benediction to Machhindranath in the presence of Lord Shiva.
It is believed by some that two of the Navnath saints are among the five pirs who propagated the message of Allah or Mahavishnu or God
- Jalandhar Nath & Gahini Nath known as Jan Pir and Ghaibi Pir.
These people believe that all religions pray to the same God but in
different languages.
According to another of Gahini Nath's student' stories, Gyandev was
allowed into the Masjid in Lahore by a voice from the sky. On coming to
the masjid, Gyandev was stopped from entering by the Maulvi but the
Maulvi heard a voice from the sky asking him to allow Gyandev entrance,
saying Gyandev is the son of GOD himself. Thus the Maulvi embraced
Gyandev and allowed him to stay in the masjid along with his brother and
sister. The important teaching of navanth is to not give any
pejorative(taunt) remarks on others bad situation,which has been
mentioed in the 40 adhya of navanath sampradaya pothi.and always think
about "who you are" which is meaning of Alakh Niranjan.
