Sadhvi

Sadhvi is the plural of sadhu (saint) alike nun in many religions. This name sadhvi is derived from the
Word sadhu that mean a man/women far from any worldly connections and not into the materialistic world. The Life of a saint (sadhu/sadhvi) in India is very different then in another part of the world. If a man or a women have his/her life up to dharma and karma only that man /women can become a true sadhu/sadhvi. The only aim of this holy sacred life is to live in touch with the supreme (prmatma) and too live a life of simplicity. A life with out pleasures, a life with out siblings, a life with out money, a life with out greed, a life with out anger, a life with out sadness. You can call them spiritual gypsy.  In India there are millions of sadhu and sadhvi (yogini) wondering in search of Devine sign.  they do not seek God by wondering one place to another but they do see God by wondering one place to another. I'm in love with the life of a traveler like sadhu. They too have many animals or serpent with them like as nature they love nature they respect nature that live nature. You can see in this pic a yogini with her serpent (king cobra(snake). This shows us that we do have diversity in living life by the way you'd choose to live.  and the one who choose to live like a saint is the living heaven. They don't need any moksha,nirvana or  enlightenment. They are wise enough to live this life by supreme simplicity.
