Sant Tradition
The Sant Tradition is a spiritual movement originating in India that emphasizes direct personal experience of the divine over ritual and dogma. It promotes values such as love, compassion, and inner peace, often expressed through devotion to a spiritual teacher or "Sant." Members of this tradition practice meditation, chant, and cultivate a deep connection with God. Key figures include Sant Kabir and Sant Tukaram, who used poetry to convey their messages. The tradition transcends specific religions, advocating for universal spirituality and the pursuit of truth, ultimately seeking liberation from the cycle of rebirth.
