Sidh Gosti (Punjabi: ਸਿਧ ਗੋਸਟਿ, pronunciation: [sɪdh ɡosʈ], sidha gōsaṭi, lit. discourse with Siddhas), also spelled as Sidh Goshti, Sidh Gosht, or Sidh Gosat, is a famous spiritual interfaith dialogue[1] between Guru Nanak and Nath Siddhas.[2] The composition is present from Ang 938 to 946 in the Adi Granth.[3][4] The composition has 73 stanzas,[5] written in Ramkali Raga. Prominent Sidh and Naths present during discussion were Charpatnath, Bhangarnath and Loharipa.[6] The popular belief is that this discourse happened at Achal Batala.[7] Other than that Guru Nanak had discourses with Sidhas at various places mainly at Gorakhmatta, Achal Batala and Mount Meru. The discussion explains the differences of Gurmat with Yoga.[8]
