Matsyendranath
Matsyendranātha, Macchindranāth or Mīnanātha (Newari ', c. early 10th century) is a saint in a number of Buddhist and Hindu traditions. He is traditionally considered the founder of haṭha yoga as well as the author of some of its earliest texts. He is also seen as the founder of the natha ''sampradaya'', having received the teachings from Shiva.〔Feuerstein, Georg (2013-09-11). The Yoga Tradition: It's History, Literature, Philosophy and Practice (Kindle Locations 12788-12789). Hohm Press. Kindle Edition. "Matsyendra was a chief representative, if not the originator, of what is known as Nâthism. But Shiva himself is considered as the source of the Nâtha lineage and is invoked as Adinâtha or 'Primordial Lord.'" (Kindle Locations 12825-12827). "Using his third eye, Shiva gazed straight through the mountain of flesh into the fish’s stomach, where he saw Mina. He was thrilled at the discovery, saying, “Now I see who my real disciple is.” Turning to his sleepy spouse, he said: “I will initiate him rather than you.”"〕 He is especially associated with kaula shaivism.〔Feuerstein, Georg (2013-09-11). The Yoga Tradition: It's History, Literature, Philosophy and Practice (Kindle Locations 12803-12804). Hohm Press. Kindle Edition. "He is specifically associated with the Kaula sect of the Siddha movement, within which he may have founded the Yoginî-Kaula branch."〕 He is also one of the eighty-four mahasiddhas and considered the guru of Gorakshanath, another important figure in early hatha yoga. He is revered by both Hindus and Buddhists, and is sometimes regarded as an incarnation of Avalokiteśvara.
==Early life==
Little is known about the life of Matsyendra and legends vary in describing his birthplace and Siddhahood. He is often conflated with the figures of Minanatha (who is also sometimes considered Matsyendra's father) and Lui-Pa, all of whose names translate as 'Lord of the Fishes'.〔The Alchemical Body: Siddha Traditions in Medieval India" by David Gordon White, p. 91〕 Giuseppe Tucci states, on the authority of two Tibetan works - the ''Siddha'' () and Taranatha's "Possessing the Seven Transmissions" () - that Matsyendranāth, who is seen in Tibet as an avatar of Avalokiteśvara, was a fisherman from Kamarupa.〔〔Kamrupa Anusandhana Samiti (1984), ''Readings in the History & Culture of Assam'',p.201 it is stated that a Siddha, named Minanatha, was a fisherman from Kamarupa〕
〔Institute of Nepal and Asian Studies, Tribhuvan University, Nepal (1996), ''Contributions to Nepalese studies - Volumes 23-24'',Page 93 Matsyendra was a resident of Kamrup-Kamakhya (today's Assam in East India).〕 Other sources give his birthplace as Bengal.〔Feuerstein, Georg (2013-09-11). The Yoga Tradition: It's History, Literature, Philosophy and Practice (Kindle Locations 12785-12786). Hohm Press. Kindle Edition. "Hindu tradition associates the creation of Hatha- Yoga with Goraksha Nâtha (Hindi: Gorakhnâth) and his teacher Matsyendra Nâtha, both of whom were born in Bengal."〕〔 The Newar people of Nepal claim his birthplace is Bungamati near Kathmandu.〔Rato Matsyendranath of Patan and Bungamati, Tribhuvan University. Institute of Nepal and Asian Studies, 1973 by John Kerr Locke〕 He is mentioned in the ''Sabaratantra'' as one of the twenty four Kapalika siddhas.〔
