【 摘 要 】

This article focuses on the person of the present Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Adityanath Yogi, and tries to contrast his political actions with his background as member of the Shaiva sect of the Nath Yogis. After tracing the recent history of the Gorakhpur monastery which he leads, I focus on Adityanath’s mode of power, which I describe under three topics: Ksatriya power, Hindu dimension, hate for Muslims. Mentioning his last and often controversial actions and declarations, I question his relationships with the BJP and his place in the current political landscape.
