Sampradaya

Sampradaya refers to a traditional spiritual lineage or school within Hinduism, representing a specific way of understanding, practicing, and passing down spiritual knowledge and teachings. It emphasizes the importance of a disciplined approach, guided by a Guru (teacher), and often involves specific rituals, philosophies, and scriptures. These lineages help preserve authentic teachings over generations, ensuring continuity and consistency. Each Sampradaya has distinct beliefs, practices, and historical origins, but all aim for spiritual growth and union with the divine. They serve as a framework for devotees to learn, practice, and deepen their connection to their faith.
