The sacred land of Pushkar is witnessing a unique spiritual practice these days. For the past nine days, a nun from Russia, Yogini Annapurna Nath, has been performing the rigorous "Khareshwari Tapa" at the Jaipur Ghat of Pushkar Lake. In this austerity, the practitioner must remain standing continuously—neither sitting nor sleeping.
What is 'Khareshwari Tap'?
This penance is considered extremely difficult and rare in the Nath sect. It requires the practitioner to meditate and practice standing for 24 hours straight. This penance tests the limits of both body and mind. Sadhvi Annapurna Nath is performing this penance with complete devotion.
