Naga sanyasis come from these places

According to the astrologer, the life of Naga sadhus is very mysterious. It is not possible to tell much about where they live and where they go. But, still they come to Kumbh from the caves or hills of Junagadh in Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh and Gujarat and the caves of the Himalayas and Haridwar. Many of these sanyasis do penance wearing clothes and some even naked by staying in secret places and then come on the occasion of Ardh Kumbh or Kumbh. Actually these Naga sanyasis keep their identity hidden.

Where do they become invisible after the fair ends?

It is said that Naga sanyasis live in a cave for a few years and then go to another cave. Due to this, it is not possible to find out their exact location. Changing caves from one to another and from the second to the third in this way and immersed in the devotion of Bhole Baba, these Nagas spend their entire life with the help of herbs and roots. Many Nagas spend years roaming in the forests and are seen in Kumbh or Ardh Kumbh.

Lifestyle of Naga Sadhus

Limited food: It is said that Naga Sadhus beg for alms and eat only once a day. A Naga Sadhu has the right to take alms from only 7 houses. Also, whatever food is given, it has to be consumed lovingly ignoring likes and dislikes. Apart from this, Naga Sadhus cannot use a bed, cot or any other means to sleep. Even Naga Sadhus are prohibited from sleeping on a mattress.
