Impressions on my last Indian visit

Yogi Matsyendranath

Shri Natha ji Guru ji ko Adesh!

I would like to share my experiences with my gurubhais, students and friends. There is a good news, my Guruji Shri Mithleshnath Maharaj was appointed as Mahant of temple in Devipatan by Adityanath ji. Great and sincere thanks to Adityanath from me and all my students. Devipatan is a sacred place for all nathas. Siddha Shri Ratannath made there his sadhana. In addition, to this place fell hand of Sati and Shakti pith was formed, so there is the famous Durga temple.

Also, I visited Galana, a place where samadhi of the famous Mahamantri Anandanath is loceted. In a small village the Gorakshanatha's temple is located, there is a small underground gufa where was made samadhi of Anandanath ji. Over the samadhi (on the first floor of the temple) is set large Gorakshanath murti. Anandanath ji, before leaving the body, ordered to put Gorakshanath over his head (yogis are buried in a sitting position). Around Gorakshanath murti, on the first floor, there are many statues of various Indian devatas, on the second floor are 84 murtis of Nathas, and on the top floor is the Lord Krishna temple, who represents devotion.

Also near the temple itself is a mountain, there is a small temple and gufa (a cave) where Anandanathji was practicing tapasya. This place impresses with its quiet and pure shakti.

One of the locals, invited me to his place. He has a small Gorakshanath temple, where he conducts pujas to Gorakshanath.

Not far from Nasik is Trayambakeshvar – one of the twelve famous Shiva pithas, there on the mountain is Gorakshanath-gufa, as well Gorakshanath temple.

Also, you can see Nivritti Natha's samadhi in Trayambakeshvar.
