Naga Sadhus: Where do they go after Mahakumbh Mela? Know their mysterious life, journeys

Naga Sadhus participate in the first royal bath of the Kumbh Mela, a significant ritual. Adorned with ash and Rudraksha beads, they are distinguished from other Sadhus.

Post-Kumbh, Naga Sadhus return to their ashrams in their digambar (naked) state. Due to societal norms, they wear a loincloth within their ashrams. Digambar symbolizes their connection with nature.

Many Naga Sadhus journey to the Himalayas and other secluded locations for rigorous penance, sustaining themselves on fruits and flowers, seeking self-realization and enlightenment.

Some Naga Sadhus reside at prominent pilgrimage sites like Prayagraj, Haridwar, Nashik, and Ujjain, engaging in religious practices and spiritual pursuits.

Naga Sadhus embark on pilgrimages, visiting various holy sites and sharing their knowledge and spiritual practices. Their journeys are a quest for truth and liberation. Following initiation, the sadhu practices hard penance, Shiva worship, and yoga, frequently in solitude in forests, caves, or the Himalayas. All of the material presented here is based on religious beliefs.
