Asthal Bohar Math is an ancient seat of the Nath yogi tradition believed to have been established by Chauranginath, a disciple of Guru Gorakhnath. It served as a prominent center for Kanphata yogis for centuries. The math was revitalized in the 18th century by Baba Mastnath, a revered Nath saint, whose samadhi is enshrined in the complex. It has since remained a continuous center of Nath lineage and monastic tradition.

The math is a major religious and cultural center for the Nath Sampradaya and followers of Shaivism in Haryana. It hosts religious gatherings, festivals such as Maha Shivratri, and daily worship. The institution also plays a social role through its management of temples, ashrams, schools, colleges and Baba Mastnath University, contributing to education and community service in the region.
