Gurus

Gurus were a sect of Hindu believers that developed from the Epic Age. These gurus believed in a more mystical side of Hinduism, shown partially in the book called the Upanishads. The mystic holy men sought community with the divine soul. The gurus did believe in come of the same doctrines as the strict Hindu believers did. The basic holy essence, brahma, was still a basic belief. Reincarnation was also a belief, and the gurus sometimes used yoga, as a form of meditation, to reach nirvana.
