by Kevin Smith AuthorThe spiritual call is unavoidable that can attract anyone to the divine
land of Uttarakhand. Enduring all the difficulties of the dangerous path,
millions of pilgrims visit the sacred Chardham every year. This annual
pilgrimage to the high mountains holds a great significance for Hindus, as most
of them believe that this holy pilgrimage must be visited once in a lifetime.
Comprised of four holy sites namely Yamunotri, Gangotri, Kedarnath, and
Badrinath, it is often known as the Chota Chardham, because all these sites are
in the state of Uttarakhand. If you are deciding to start the pilgrimage to the
sacred Chardham consider the following reasons before your Char Dham Yatra
from Bangalore.
Historical Explanation
Considered as the creator of Chardham pilgrimage, Adi Guru
Shankaracharya is one of those gurus that held a great respect among Hindus.
Not only Shankaracharya was the most respected philosopher, but he also has
written several Sanskrit verses. Moreover, he was remembered for reviving
Hinduism. The history of these verses suggests that many stories are directly
attached to the discovery of each shrine. These following stories even now have
an importance that attracts millions of people to visit these holy shrines.
Spiritual Reason
Most people visit Chardham to gather spiritual experience. A visit to
these holy shrines makes every individual feel divine connectivity with the
ultimate being. Many locals believe that unless the more divine power attracts
the soul, no one can enter this part of the region. Moreover, it is also
understood that a visit to all of these holy shrines will not only wash away
all the sins but also prepares one's soul for the journey of enlightenment.
Scientific Reason
Putting all the above reasons aside, there are various scientific
reasons to visit Chardham, even if you are not much of a religious person. The
tough trekking route will challenge your body to the limit and takes you out of
your comfort zone. There's no denying that climbing up between the mountains
needs discipline and stamina. Hence, no matter if you are a man or woman, you
need to follow a strict schedule to be able to reach the end of the journey.
Therefore, this yatra check's the physical stamina and will power of the
individual that will keep them fit during their entire life. Even though the
trek is quite tough, however, the hilly path through dense forests and rivers
will make one feel close to nature.
Self-Rediscovery
During the unknown path of Chardham Yatra, it gives you a chance to
rediscover yourself. While it is true that every individual seems lost in the
rush of urban complexities, but the Chardham yatra will reconnect you with
one's own self. The pilgrimage will not only create new challenges but also
helps one understand their abilities, and prepares you for those challenges
that can test your limits. Moreover, the pilgrimage will give you an-round
development from physical to mental to spiritual, and will solely re-energize
your soul.
