Why 'NATH'

In the late 1970s, against the backdrop of Paithan, a town steeped in spiritual significance, Shri Nandkishor Kagliwal embarked on a visionary journey to shape the landscape of industry and education in Ch. Sambhaji Nagar, erstwhile Aurangabad. His pioneering efforts resulted in the establishment of an agro-waste based Paper Mill and an Agricultural Research Center at Paithan, laying the foundation for a legacy that would bear the name Nath. But what prompted the choice of Nath? 

 

The answer lies in the deep-rooted cultural and spiritual history of Paithan, revered as the bhoomi (sacred land) of Sant Eknath, a saint whose profound wisdom and forward-thinking ideologies reverberate the boundaries of time. Sant Eknath, an epitome of self-realisation, who graced the land in the late 16th Century, preached & practiced the universal and timeless values that Shri Nandkishor Kagliwal found both inspiring and grounding. 

  

Sant Eknath's teachings were far-reaching, encompassing principles that extend beyond temporal boundaries. At the core of his philosophy were the values of ekta (unity), samata (equanimity), nishta (devotion), ekagrata(focus), and other virtues.  A simple rooted way of pure thinking, living and leading life.   

 

Drawing inspiration from Sant Eknath's teachings, the name Nath has become synonymous with excellence, ethical conduct, and a commitment to principles that stand the test of time. This inspiration echoes through various entities bearing the Nath name, including Nath Biogenes,  Nath Chemicals, Nath Paper Mill, and Nath Valley School. In a society where ethical considerations are often overshadowed by the pursuit of material success; the Nath legacy emerges as a beacon of timeless wisdom.  It is this illustrious name and legacy, which NSBT (Nath School of Business & Technology) is now deeply privileged to carry the torch of. 

 

As we reflect on this journey that began in the late 70s, the Nath legacy stands as a bridge between the past and the future. It carries the weight of history, the wisdom of Sant Eknath, and a commitment to ethical values that have the potency to guide, inspire, and sustain enterprises in the ever-evolving landscape of the modern world.
