Andh Bhaket
Background Information
The word 'Andh Bhakt' is a Hindi phrase. The word 'Bhakt' would mean a devotee and the word 'Andh' means 'blind'. So an ‘Andh Bhakt' means a devotee who believes in his/her leader blindly, even when the mind says that the leader could be wrong, the 'Andh Bhakt' believes the leader to be always right and infallible. Only a person who has suspended his faculty of critical examination of evidences, can be a 'Andh Bhakt'. In English a better word would be 'true believer'.
