Nirmal Panth
(निर्मल पंथ)Literal Meaning
The pure, stainless path
Etymology & Sanskrit Root
'Nirmal' (spotless, pure) plus 'panth' (path); the name Guru Ravidas Ji himself gave his teaching, a path resting on purity of heart rather than caste distinction or rules of external ritual purity.
Spiritual Insight & Context
By naming his path 'Nirmal,' Guru Ravidas Ji directly challenged the caste prejudice that branded his own occupation 'impure' — true purity, he taught, lies in conduct, not birth.
