New Photos of Our Monks

Jai to the Nandinatha Sampradaya!
Jai Kailasa Parampara!

Several days ago our monks gathered at Iriavan Temple for a brief photoshoot of the order and for individual portraits which hadn't been updated in some time. Our taskforcers, Mayuran and Chandipati joined in to help take some of the photos.

"The Natha Sampradaya has revealed the search for the innermost divine Self, balanced by temple worship, fueled by kundalini yoga, charted by monistic theism, illumined by a potent guru-shishya system, guided by soul-stirring scriptures and awakened by sadhana and tapas." - Gurudeva

The order stands at the feet of Iraivan.

To start, the monks gather at the temple just before evening. A good time to avoid harsh light.
