Anybody to explain warkari tradition and its relation with nath sect?
- Warkaris is branch evolved from Nath sect. In fact, Dnyaneshwar's elder brother Nivrutti Nath was a desciple of a Nath yogi. Gathering more information on this-Mannoj 09:25, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

A photo is needed - Somebody has done this - Mannoj 09:33, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
More info on siblings needed
Info on bhagawata sect needed
[edit] The first section says:
He was a yogi born in a socially marginalized high-caste family.
In the section on childhood, it says that he was from deshastha brahmin family. I think the first section should also say that he was from deshastha brahmin family.Tkul 22:38, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
Considering the Universal nature of Wikipedia, First para rightly explains the Kulkarni Family's social status (socially marginalized high-caste family.) Adding the word brahmin there would make it difficult for a reader unfamilier with the word Brahmin. However, that detail is put, as you have mentioned,in the childhood section - Mannoj 09:33, 16 September 2007 (UTC) __________________________________________________________
[edit] Haripath
Can anyone comment on the text at Haripath? If it's in Marathi, it's either archaic or poetic, as I can't do much more than gloss Hindi cognates from it. Are the passages copied there correct for Haripath? - Taxman Talk 05:33, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Request for clarification/expansion
In this translated portion:
Translation: I will bring great knowledge of Vedas, Upanishads, Shastras and Bhagvadgita from Sanskrit in my mother tongue Marathi. Thus, provide status to common poor people who know Marathi but don’t know Sanskrit. He regarded the upliftment of all sectors of society as very important and stressed that caste should be based on qualities not birth.
is he saying he wants the caste system to continue but be based on different factors, or is he really saying he wants no one barred from access to the Vedas, Upanishads, etc because of their caste, language, etc? (I cannot read the original quote, so that is why I am asking ... the rest of the translation -- his desire for the upliftment of all -- is very clear, but that one part about reconfiguring the caste system seems a bit unclear.)
Also, I wondered if any editor could fill in any details about his desire for Samadhi after he returned from his final pilgrimage. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Iddli (talk • contribs) 20:00, 9 December 2007 (UTC)
