Teachings from many lands focusing on our synthesis of the Adinath and Uttara Kaula lines as a spiritual path.

Nath Kula Kaula

July 20, 2005

Greetings to All,

Recently a number of influences have prompted me to compose an essay on the translation and meaning of the Sanskrit words. Nath Kula Kaula. These three words have a deep meaning relating to the INO and its roots in the Adinath and Uttara Kaula lineages. The essay touches on an important theme related to the INO which is not explicitly expressed in any of Shri Mahendranath’s public writings. These points and their effectiveness were communicated privately and intended for broader consideration by the public when the INO had reached a more mature stage of development.

Today on this Guru Purnima day of 2005 I present Nath Kula Kaula as an offering for your consideration. Future essays are planned to detail a fresh look at a number of Sanskrit terms as they relate to the modern INO.

Nath Kula Kaula can be found here:

Peace, Freedom and Happiness to All.

Guru Om,
