Using real-world data from eight network operators across four continents, a new study by Actix reveals how the dynamic interplay of people, places and devices is impacting mobile networks across the world. It highlights the critical importance of accurate customer handset and location data for targeting network investments, improving customer experience where it matters and coping with the influx of new devices.
Performance and the radio access network
Smartphones on 3G networks spend almost 85% of their active time generating data traffic, and only 10% of it on voice. The radio access network is responsible for between 80-85% of poor quality voice whilst data sessions in congested areas often fall below video-ready speeds. LTE networks deliver on performance claims but the real challenge will come when these networks become heavily loaded.
"The data performance on today's network varies greatly and is far behind the high speeds that handsets are capable of reaching," commented Neil Coleman, Director of Marketing at Actix. "There's a lot of demand from users for fast data rates but handset technology is advancing much more quickly than the networks can deliver."
The average smartphone in a person's pocket is 18 months old and those with newer phones generate much more data. Apple subscribers use more data, and more data per session, than Android, with Blackberry users consuming 50% less data than Android and 30% less than Apple.
"If existing Blackberry customers switched to Apple or Android, mobile traffic would increase by 20%," added Coleman. "As early adopters move to the latest devices they put extra strain on the network and with more people switching from BlackBerry this will only continue."
Only one in five of locations are responsible for 80% of network traffic and just 5% are responsible for over half of traffic, with these high traffic areas typically less than 30-100m2 in size. In addition, 15% of locations are responsible for 85% of all customer experience problems.
Across an entire network, outdoor usage is still high but indoor usage (of voice and data) is gaining and in many congested areas indoor usage dominates.
"Data rates drop off by as much as 50% when users go indoors," said Coleman. "The area also affects the demand placed on the network, for example social media usage is highest in tourist areas, where data connections are busiest between 20:00 and 21:00. Many locations are busy a lot of the time, but areas with the highest levels of demand peak only for two short periods each day, such as transport hubs and central business districts. There's no blanket solution to this for operators."
The market is made up of smartphones; basic handsets are rapidly losing market share and alternative devices such as dongles, tablets and Mi-Fi are a minority. Mature operators are seeing market penetration reaching 66% and network data suggests over 80% of all downloaded data is from smartphones.
While smartphones make 3-10 data connections per hour of use, 60-70% of data sessions are less than 50 Kbytes in size and Actix estimates less than 30% of these data sessions are user initiated. Every new generation of smartphone adds 20% more data per subscriber and smartphones released in 2012 generate 2.5 times more traffic per subscriber than those released in 2009.
"The Apple iPhone 4Gs is the definitive 3G smartphone in terms of mobile experience, usage and subscriber adoption," added Coleman. "It remains to be seen if Apple can reach the same highs again."
Other insights into device usage, include:
- Tablets and dongles are more impacted by capacity issues than basic and feature phones
- Tablet usage is miniscule compared to smartphones, despite around 115 million tablet devices having been sold according to Forrester Research
Bill McHale, CEO of Actix, comments: "Our annual study reveals the importance of understanding the interplay between people, places and devices on the network. Never before has the network comprised such a range of complex elements, as operators look to transition to LTE, manage increasingly demanding user expectations and optimize for an ever-growing number of devices.
"By studying a significant number of active operator networks across the world, this report delivers a comprehensive analysis of today's mobile networks and the challenges operators face. Through understanding the network subscriber, where they are and the device they are using, operators can radically improve their network quality through targeted investment, optimization and SON."

I wanted to gather all of my Internet of Things (IOT) blogs into a single blog (that I could later use with my University of San Francisco (USF) Big Data "MBA" course). However as I started to pull these blogs together, I realized that my IOT discussion lacked a vision; it lacked an end point towards which an organization could drive their IOT envisioning, proof of value, app dev, data engineering and data science efforts. And I think that the IOT end point is really quite simple…

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries. Traditional data warehouse and analytical systems are mature technologies that can be used to handle certain kinds of queries, but they are not always well suited to many problems, particularly when there is a need for real-time insights.

Actress Crystal Hunt can trace her time in the limelight all the way back to when she was just 2 years old. That is when the Hollywood Actress got her first taste of fame on the pageant circuit. Her talent, when competing in pageants, was acting. It turns out that she was able to hone this talent as the years went on, as she has been a fixture on daytime television, in major motion pictures and in the media since 2003.
Crystal got her big break on the Soap Opera, Guiding Light. She played the role of Lizzie Spaulding and earned more than her fair share of fans and accolades for this role. Crystal went on to fill this role until 2006. During her run on Guiding Light Crystal also starred in the 2005 motion picture, The Derby Stallion alongside Hollywood A-Lister, Zac Efron.
Over the years she has managed to stay busy with a wide array of projects. In 2007 she won the role of "Dinky" in the teen-comedy Sydney White. Following that Hunt starred as Hannah in New York Underground.
Crystal made a stunning return to the world of Soap Operas when she was picked to play Stacy Morasco on the long-running daytime drama, One Life to Live. She spent several years playing this role; starting this successful run in 2009 and staying on through 2012. Talbot County in 2014. Crystal proved that she can wear more than one hat by producing the feature film. She went on to win a role in the very high profile major motion picture, Magic Mike XXL in 2015.
When she was not in front of the camera as an actress or working on other projects, Hunt has managed to combine her love of animals with an entrepreneurial spirit. She owns an upscale pet boutique in Clearwater Florida called "My Pets Dream Boutique."

Xero plays long game in US
Relevant offers
Xero chief executive Rod Drury has forecast the software firm will grow its subscription revenue by "approximately 80 per cent" in the year to March 2015.
He dismissed a report questioning its momentum in the United States market as "ridiculous", but acknowledged it would take time to crack that market.
This year it achieved revenues of $70.1 million, up 83 per cent, after forecasting at least 80 per cent growth.
Chairman Chris Liddell, a former chief financial officer of General Motors and Microsoft, told shareholders gathered in Wellington for the company's annual meeting that it would be a "logical step" for Xero to look at listing on a United States exchange "in due course".
Woodward Partners analyst Nick Lewis said yesterday that rumours had resurfaced in the past fortnight that Xero would list on the Nasdaq exchange but said he would be surprised if that was imminent.
Drury said the timing could be right once Xero was turning over more than US$100m ($115m) in annual revenues.
He reassured investors Xero was going to be successful in the United States market, but said it would take time and emphasised the importance of the Australian and British markets, where its business was further progressed. The US market "would not be decided in the next five years", he said. "It is not 'game-on' with Intuit yet."
Nevertheless, Intuit, the dominant provider of accounting software in the US, had been "spooked" by Xero arriving "well dressed" in its home market, he said. "The hypothesis we are not going to get some market share doesn't make sense any more."
Drury described as "ridiculous" a report this morning in which US accountant Michelle Long said she believed Xero had lost momentum in the US. Drury said Long was a "paid Intuit adviser".
Long, who runs her own consulting business, Long for Success, has had a long association with Intuit for whom she has carried out training since 2007. She had previously made positive comments about Xero, which paid for her to visit New Zealand and attend its XeroCon conference as its guest in Auckland last year.
Long, who has almost 80,000 followers on her LinkedIn group, said today that she valued her independence highly and was not paid to promote Intuit.
"I have been paid as an independent contractor to do training for both Xero and Intuit. I am not paid to be pro-Intuit. I have always pointed out anything good and anything bad and been totally honest. That is why I have so many followers," she said.
Long said she stopped carrying out Xero training last year after the work dried up.
Liddell said Xero was one of the most important companies to come from New Zealand. "Xero is in my mind on a path to become the best in the world at what it does. If I can play a small role in its success that is something I will be incredibly proud of."
A vote increasing directors' maximum remuneration by $350,000 to a new cap of $850,000 was passed with no questions from the floor. All but a few of the shareholders gathered at the meeting raised their hands in approval.
Liddell said the remuneration pool had last been set in 2012 and its board had expanded from six directors to eight since then.

A couch-bound elderly woman tried to wash and change herself because she did not like to "bother" the daughter who cared for her, a court has been told.
But Jo-Ann Quinn, 51, says her mother, Maureen Quinn, 82, would not accept her help because she did not like to be touched or moved.
She is on trial in Napier District Court charged with failing to provide the necessaries of life to her mother.
Maureen Quinn had not moved from the couch for at least three years, the court was told.
Medical staff called to the house on November 15, 2011, found that the fibres of the blanket covering her had grown into a leg ulcer infested with maggots. Jo-Ann Quinn said it was the first time she had noticed the maggots.
Her mother's face was stained blue from the couch, and her left toenails were so long that they had become embedded in her right leg.
She died 36 days later of pneumonia.
She had existing heart trouble, type 2 diabetes and osteoporosis, and relied on her daughter's care.
Crown prosecutor Steve Manning said Quinn endangered her mother's life because she did not seek timely medical care.
Quinn said she was following her mother's wishes by not seeking medical help. "She doesn't like anything done, she does what she wants," she said in a police interview played to the court.
Quinn knew the blanket was stuck to her mother's leg and suggested ringing a doctor, but nothing was done. "I don't push my mother around," she said.
She rang a doctor only after her sister in Australia raised concerns about how much pain their mother was in.
Lisa Quinn said she was shocked to see the "dramatic deterioration" in her mother when she returned home. "I had to leave the hospital room."
Her sister had cared for their mother since 2006 and lived off her pension.
Lisa Quinn said her mother was happy on the couch, as she wanted to die at home.
Maureen Quinn was "skin and bones", dehydrated and malnourished when she arrived at Hawke's Bay Hospital, chief medical officer John Gommans said.
Medical staff gave her three litres of fluid in the first few hours of her arriving at the emergency department. It had not been done lightly, as too much fluid could cause heart failure. "The pain, fractures, medical conditions, maggots, wounds and impact it had on staff was stunning."
Detective Toni Leppien said Maureen Quinn did not want to give a statement against her eldest daughter, saying: "She looked after me the best she could."
Quinn made her toast and a cup of tea for breakfast and a boiled egg for lunch. She did not eat dinner.
Although it was painful, Maureen Quinn changed her own nappies because she did not like to bother her daughter, who grizzled when asked to dispose of them.
"I can't believe I've had eight children and I've ended up here in this state," she told Leppien.
Jo-Ann Quinn never visited her mother in hospital.
The defence declined to give evidence in the judge-only trial. Judge Jonathan Down will give his decision this morning.

We went into the local bookstore in Todos Santos and bought the last two hard copies of the book they had. This isn't a Kindle book. To me, those are "for entertainment only" books I read and never feel bad because I can't pick them up again. Living with Gusto is a book I want to keep around for refresher courses. I've already read it twice and it's on my counter to remind me that I have GUSTO and everything is moving along happily and as it should in my move. I know that it's there to remind me to trust, to be gentle with myself and to believe in the power of fun and love. Whenever I get overwhelmed or scared about the future I pick it right up!
as though it were my own. We all ride the wave of life's turbulent highs and lows and to have Gusto's positive
encouragement to find our way by opening our heart, and then finding our path to again taste the deliciousness of life
and soar to new heights greatly touched me on a soul level!

If I were considering a law firm to represent me, it certainly wouldn't be one that runs around advertising for business on message boards in violation of the owner's terms of service.
Seriously, who do these bozos think they are?
They can't be very good at being attorneys.
History proves it - plaintiffs in these class action suits collect pennies while the attorneys collect lots.
Ignore these jerks.

Thanks to a court's timely intervention, Santa Monica-based Activision Blizzard on Friday closed its deal to buy a majority of Vivendi's stake in the video game maker for $8.2 billion.
The speedy closing comes just a day after the Delaware Supreme Court struck down an injunction by a lower court that prevented the transaction from being completed.
With the deal's closing, Activision Blizzard, the maker of the blockbuster "Call of Duty" franchise, will become an independent company, though still under the control of its chief executive, Robert Kotick, and its chairman, Brian Kelly.
"The incredible shareholder response that we've gotten from institutional shareholders to the deal has been a great validation," Kotick said in a phone interview.
The transaction was long in the making but began coalescing several months ago when Kotick assembled a group of partners to help buy out most of Vivendi's stake.
Kotick had long wanted a firmer grasp over the company that he has built into a video game behemoth. As Vivendi, the French conglomerate, grappled with issues in its other businesses and was increasingly diverted from Activision Blizzard, he moved to take control.
In late July, Activision Blizzard announced that Vivendi would reduce its stake to 12 percent from 61 percent.
But the plan was dealt a surprising setback last month when a Delaware Chancery Court judge intervened as part of a shareholder's lawsuit against the deal. The judge, Vice Chancellor J. Travis Laster, ruled that Activision Blizzard's certificate of incorporation required a shareholder vote on the deal.
Kotick plans to focus heavily on making inroads in China. Chinese Internet company Tencent was a backer in trimming Vivendi's stake.
The Blizzard brand, developer of "World of Warcraft" is based in Irvine.

It might still be the early stages of your relationship and things aren't serious just yet, but before you establish an exclusivity rule with her, the other women you're dating should always remain separate. This is one of those forgotten timeless dating rules. Being respectful entails letting her know if you're dating others, but not going into the gory details. Don't mention that cute girl you met yesterday, and don't check out other women in front of her. Also, in the long-term, don't use other women to stir up jealousy; mentioning your fit new 21-year-old secretary isn't going to inject passion into a declining relationship. Number 4 Thou shalt not let thyself go After spending some time with a girl, you'll start to feel comfortable around her... sometimes too comfortable. You won't feel the urge to impress her and let things slide. You should relax around her, but this can go too far. Forgetting about hygiene, indulging her in bathroom humour, wearing ratty, stained shirts, and adding on a few extra pounds should be avoided. She knows you're a real person and, believe me, she knows you have faults, but she doesn't need to be reminded how much of a slob you really can be. Don't act like she's one of your uni housemates — a timeless dating rule. Number 3 Thou shalt not rush things Don't be the kind of boy who won't kiss on the first date, but don't rush things either. Relationships are organic and develop at their own pace. Working on a timetable, like planning on moving in together after two years, getting engaged after three, and getting married after four just won't turn out well. Wait until things feel right, rather than doing it all when it's expected. And under no circumstances should you tell her you love her in the first month (perhaps one of the most important timeless dating rules). Number 2 Thou shalt not frequent thy exes Forget the myth that after breaking up, you and an ex can remain best friends and help each other through the struggles of the next relationship. Your focus should be on the girl you're with in the here and now. By all means, be amiable with your exes: exchange catch-up e-mails every few months and say hello when you bump into them. But they should never linger around your new relationship like the smell of a decaying corpse. Number 1 Thou shalt not lose faith In the dating game, these facts are certain: Not every pickup attempt will land a date, not every date will be perfect, and every relationship, except The One, will end in tears. Taking these guarantees on the chin is perhaps the cardinal rule of dating. Don't dwell on the bad times — learn from them, and get yourself ready to approach the next girl. the 10 commandments There it is: a list of timeless dating rules. These rules apply to all men, of all ages, who find themselves in all the women-filled cities and towns in the country. Remember to go out, date and have fun... but never forget these 10 timeless dating commandments.

Broadcast systems integrator TV Magic has finalized systems integration of the master control room for Autonomous University of Baja California (UABC) in Tijuana, Baja California, Mexico. TV Magic integrated and installed new equipment at the facilities within the school of humanities, optimizing the operations for students' TV and entertainment productions.
"The television lab in the school of humanities was equipped with up-to-date components, but those components weren't integrated correctly within our existing system. To allow our students to take advantage of current technologies in the field of production, we needed to resolve this issue," said Claudia Becerra, communications coordinator for the TV facilities at UABC. "We consulted with several vendors and integrators who did not seem to have the capacity to take on this project due to its complexity. However, we trusted TV Magic not only in the company's capacity to complete this job, but also in its unique design process. The company's approach has rendered a fully functional system for our needs as an academic institution."
The TV facilities at UABC are dedicated to academic training, but the lack of available systems integrators specializing in the field of television limited, for a time, the updating and acquisition of new equipment needed to maximize the use of these facilities. TV Magic helped identify the necessary components to support optimal functionality at a cost-effective price point. Germán Cano, a professional consultant in charge of updating the facilities at UABC, solicited TV Magic's services for the assessment of new equipment, as well as for installation services.

David Diehl DUI: How Much Does A 304-Pound Lineman Need To Drink To Hit .182 BAC? Answer: A Lot
If you drank as much as David Diehl allegedly did, you'd probably be dead.
New York Giants offensive lineman David Diehl was arrested over the weekend after crashing his 2011 BMW into two cars in Queens allegedly while drunk.
According to Queens District Attorney Richard Brown, the 304-pound lineman's blood alcohol content was .182, which is more than twice the legal limit.
So, how much does a 304-pound lineman need to drink to achieve such a BAC? A whole friggin' lot.
Brown says Diehl told police he'd been at a bar watching a Croatian soccer game prior to smashing into two parked cars -- we'll assume that he was there for about three hours. According to science (read: BAC calculator iPhone app), Diehl would have had to consume about 17 drinks in three hours to achieve a .182 BAC -- and that's only if 12 of those drinks were 12-ounce beers and five were shots of liquor.

If the two-time Super Bowl winner were only drinking beer, he would have had to put back about 20 to hit .182 BAC.
For comparison purposes, a 170-pound man's BAC would be .360 if he drank as much as Diehl allegedly did -- which is enough to be fatal
As expected, Diehl's in a bit of trouble -- Brown says he's been charged with two counts of operating a motor vehicle while under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
"[Diehl] is accused of getting behind the wheel while under the influence of alcohol and crashing his vehicle. Luckily, no one was injured. Drinking and driving is never a good idea - and can often have serious consequences."
If convicted, Diehl faces up to a year in jail and a $1,000 fine.

Pret A Manger's CEO Clive Schlee was almost wriggling with glee today as he announced a 17 per cent rise in revenue for the food chain.
So what account for Pret's success? Those free drinks they apparently hand our willy nilly, their speedy service and handy locations? Those factors don't hurt. But its star item is actually the 50p banana. Schlee told Radio 4's Today that it was their biggest seller, followed by tuna sandwiches.
Presumably bought as a conscience-salver to 600-calorie "Posh" Cheddar-and-Pickle-baguette lovers, Pret told Trending that it sells 75,000 of them a week (tuna butties do 54,000). To put that into context, that's like an area the size of Wales made out of 75,000 bananas.
Or, like everyone an Old Trafford waving a banana, Miliband-style.
In fact, the dominance of the banana in Pret is merely a reflection of the fruit's global pre-eminence. According to the Fairtrade Foundation (Pret's aren't Fairtrade but are monitored by agricultural practice auditors Global Gap) 'nanas are the world's most popular fruit, accruing £10bn in annual sales. In UK supermarkets, only petrol and lottery tickets outsell them.
Which begs one obvious question. How do you like them apples, apples?

It is the 'cool' new craze sweeping the world and next week it will make a splash in Echuca-Moama.
Murray Human Services' Phillip Evans has called on groups, businesses and individuals in the region to 'buy a bucket' for an ice bucket challenge.
The challenge, to have a bucket of ice water poured over your head, is a viral sensation, which aims to raise money and awareness for motor neurone disease.
Mr Evans said he was inspired to get involved with the charitable cause after watching former Essendon footballer Neale Daniher talk about his battle with the disease on television.
The interview struck a chord with Mr Evans, who has watched his own father battle the debilitating disease, for which there is no known cure, for the past five years.
''I watched the Daniher interview with my children. I explained to them that this is what will happen to pop,'' he said.
''To many though, not a lot is known about motor neurone disease. It is a silent killer.''
Mr Evans volunteered to cop a bucket this week to help raise awareness of the challenge.
He is encouraging people to buy a bucket for $100 and nominate who they wanted to use it on.
Echuca College was the latest group to throw its weight behind the cause and Mr Evans was confident he would hear from plenty of other groups and businesses.
''It doesn't have to be an individual thing,'' he said.
''It could be a business who nominate their boss for the bucket, a school group, a sporting club, anyone and everyone.''
The challenge is on Friday at Echuca Primary School's oval, starting at 1.30pm.
To buy a bucket, visit www.murrayhumanservices.org.au/ice-bucket-challenge which has a PayPal account attached.
Mr Evans said people wanting to help or buy a bucket could call him on 0428

A design conference speaker says pricing matters less than product information.
The convenience of shopping on the web, as well as the ease of online product research, is often more important to consumers than the low prices found on the Internet. Those aspects should guide e-commerce design, said Lauren Freedman, president of The E-tailing Group this morning during the opening session of the Internet Retailer Web Design and Usability Conference 2012 in Orlando, FL.
Drawing upon a survey of 1,035 consumers conducted in the fourth quarter of 2011, Freedman told attendees that 80% of respondents said one reason they like web shopping is because of the wealth of product information available online. 75% also said they like the convenience of e-commerce. "The power of information is very important," Freedman said, advising attendees to keep that in mind when undertaking site design work. "If you don't have the information consumers need, they'll go elsewhere."
66% of respondents said they like web shopping because it is less expensive. By comparison, 67% said one reason they like shopping in physical stores is because they want to touch products.
Retailers should never lose sight of what Amazon.com Inc. is doing, Freedman said. That's because 60% of consumers first check prices on Amazon.com before going elsewhere. And 40% of survey respondents make more than 23% of their web purchases from Amazon, No. 1 in the Internet Retailer Top 500 Guide.
E-retailers also have to meet consumer expectations for discounts and deals, Freedman said. That's because half of consumers say they never or rarely pay full price and 73% of them view unconditional free shipping as critical or very important to them.
One big one: attracting sellers by eliminating listing fees.

Sports association to rethink high school cutbacks
Published: Tuesday, June 23, 2009 at 1:00 a.m.
Last Modified: Monday, June 22, 2009 at 10:00 p.m.
Faced with a gender discrimination lawsuit, the group that administers high school sports is considering backing down on plans to reduce all high school sports schedules except football and cheerleading.
Parents of eight female high school athletes last week sued the Florida High School Athletic Association saying the cuts would affect more female than male athletes and violates a federal law that states schools must provide equal sports opportunities for both genders.
The FHSAA announced Monday it will hold an emergency board meeting on July 15 to reconsider the cuts, which it passed in April. Under the plan, varsity schedules would be reduced by 20 percent and junior varsity by 40 percent to save school districts money. Football was exempted because the sport is popular and profitable in many districts.
"Although the overriding reason for the reduction was to ease the financial burden on theschools in Florida, it would not help to turn around and have them pay money in legal fees," said FHSAA Executive Director Roger Dearing, a former Manatee County schools superintendent.
The parents group that is suing is seeking an injunction to stop the shortenedschedules being implemented when schools resume in August.
FHSAA board president Greg Zornes called for the emergency meeting after Dearing failed to come up with an alternative proposal that satisfied the parents. Zornes said it is too early too know whether the board will reverse the cuts.
"To give an answer is to predict the sentiments of 16 board members," Zornes said in an e-mail. "Of course, our goal is to always avoid litigation whenever possible."

Beyond religions and caste systems, this is an ancient sect of avdhoot yogis. It originated with Adinath Shankar and was presented by Shiva incarnate Balyati Shri Gorakshnath to the world.
Great epics like Padma, Skanda, Shiva and Bramhand Puranas, books on tantra such as Tantra mahanarva, Brahadaranyak Upnishads and other ancient scriptures have well described stories of Guru Gorakshnath.
Goraksh nath ji taught the world how to develop and realize the super powers existing in the human mind and body through yogic practices. He was the originator of hatha yoga and initiated the process of teaching it to the mankind to improve the mind and body, thoughts and actions, focused on leading a better quality of life, to save them from terrible diseases and misfortunes. For the welfare of humanity, he preached yoga through all ages.
To maintain the tradition of Guru-sishya relationship, Goraksh nath became the disciple of Baba Shri Matsyendra nath ji. Till eternity they clear all the doubts arising in a yogis mind through the medium of question- answers between the guru and the disciple. Gorakh bodh, a book written by Goraksh nath is an example. He wrote many books on the subject of yoga in Sanskrit language. Many have been published and many manuscripts still remain with the yogis at their ashrams.
Shri Guru Goraksh nath ji taking bhiksha (alms) from Mata Annapurna
Impressed by his super human feats and teachings, many kings became his disciples. They gave up all the luxuries in life and became completely devoted towards sadhana for the betterment of humanity. After performing many austerities and penance, they mastered yoga and gained various sidhis. They attained sainthood and performed extraordinary deeds during their life times.
The present form and rules set in the Nath Sampradaya is supposed to be 200 years before Lord Shankaracharya's birth. This is mentioned in the Hindu epic Shankar Digvijay.
Gorakshnath ji propagated the science of yoga by initiating Nav-naths and 84 sidhas on this path. The famous Nav-naths of the Nath Sampradaya are:
1. Goraksh nath ji
2. Matsendra nath ji
3. Chourangi nath ji
4. Gyan nath ji
5. Jalebi nath ji
6. Achal nath ji
7. Santosh nath ji
8. Uday nath ji
9. Omkar nath ji
The murati of Shri Guru Goraksh nath ji and Vilakshan Avdhoot Baba Shri Amrit nath ji maharaj at the
Gaddi,, the seat of power at Shri Amrit Nath ashram, Fatehpur.
The Baroh panth or the 12 sects in the Nath Sampradaya are:
Satya nath
Dharam nath
Daria nath,
Ayi Panthi,
Vairaag ke
Ram ke,
Ganga nathi
Rawal ke
Paav panth
Paagal panthi.
There are no major differences in the traditions and principles of these 12 sects.
A disciple has mainly three Gurus in this sampradaya:
Choti Guru- The guru intiates the disciple in the nath sampradaya by formally cutting some of his hair and granting the disciple symbolic saffron clothes of the sadhu asking him to follow the discipline of always having self-control over all his senses.
There after the disciple shaves his head completely and always wears saffron.
Chira Guru- Is the Guru who tears the cartilage of his disciple's ears with a sharp knife. There after a disciple always wears kundals in his ears.
Mantra Guru or Updesh Guru- The Guru teaches the secret mantra and gives all the knowledge and protection to his disciple. There after the disciple promises to follow the Guru's teaching and fulfils all his commands till the end of his life.
The above picture on the left shows Ramta's Mahant Shri Krishan nath ji wearing large kundals in his ears and in the picture on the right, a sadhu making the Janeu with black sheep wool.
Sri Guru Goraksh nath ji made the piercing of the cartilage of the ear to wear the kundals popular in the sadhus. Flat, large hoop rings made of earth, gold, bone, horn of rhino (now even plastic) etc. are worn all the time by the nath sadhus. This confirms the complete dedication and determination in the disciple. To check the sense of deep detachment and the power to bear pain, Goraksh nath ji established this tradition as a test for his followers and disciples. The disciples who remain as monks without wearing their Kundals or Darshans, are called "Oghad" or half a Sadhu. They are shown less respect accordingly.
The Nath sadhu calls the name "Alakh" when they go for alms (bhiksha) or when they meditate. Alakh meaning, invisible, imperceptible ultimate spirit of the universe, this is another title of Lord Shiva. They greet each other by calling out "Adesh" literally meaning, "will do as you command".
Nath yogis wear Janeu (sacred threads) around their neck, which is called "singi-seli".
This Janeu is made of 16 threads of black sheep wool. Each thread is woven delicately by spinning eight threads of raw wool by hand. The total length of a janeu is 18 feet. There is a Singh- Naad attached to one end of the Janeu. This whistle is blown as salutations while bowing in front of the samadhis or owns own Guru or superior. There is a small ring called Pavitri and a rudraksh bead joined to this naad. While wearing the Janeu, the Naad ideally rests at the navel of the yogi.
