Answer:
Nathpanthis like siddhas and yogis were a group of ascetics in Mediveval India who advocated renunciation of the world. They believed that the path to salvation lies in meditation on the formless Ultimate Reality (God) and the realization of oneness with Him
The Virashaiva tradition in Karnataka: They worship Shiva in his manifestation as a linga, and men usually wear a small linga in a silver case on a loop strung over the left shoulder. ... Lingayats believe that on death the devotee will be united with Shiva and will not return to this world.
