Amarnath Yatra: The Amarnath Yatra attracts millions of devotees every year to see Baba Barfani. This journey is not only a religious journey but many religious beliefs and traditions are attached to it. In the cave of Amarnath, Baba Barfani has a unique spiritual experience, which makes life blessed. But have you ever heard that Baba Barfani is considered incomplete without seeing pigeons? Come, let's understand this secret.
Every year when devotees visit Amarnath, their main objective is to see Baba Barfani. But do you know that there is a very old belief here, according to which the darshan of Amarnath is considered incomplete without seeing pigeons. This tradition is very unique, and has a deep religious and historical significance.
This recognition is to a special incident to Mahadev. In ancient texts, especially in the Amarnath Mahatmya of Bhrigu Samhita, it is mentioned that Lord Shiva was doing Tandava at one time and Mahadamruk Gan also came there to watch his dance. These ganas disturbed the dance "Kuru Kuru Kuru Kuru" Started saying Lord Shiva got angry and cursed these ganas and said that he will remain here and will continue to repeat the same words for eternity. After this, Lord Shiva told these ganas that all the devotees who will come here and see them, all their troubles will be removed and they will be saved.
These ganas were actually converted into pigeons. Therefore, whenever a devotee goes on the Amarnath Yatra, he has to visit the pigeons at this place. Without seeing these pigeons, the journey is considered incomplete and by visiting them, the sins of all the devotees are washed away.
Amarnath Yatra is not just a religious journey but it is also a spiritual experience. Devotees expect the fulfillment of their wishes from Baba Barfani. The religious significance of this journey is also very high, because by doing this a person gets the same fruit as Ashwamedha Yajna. Also, this journey makes the life of a person blessed.
This time the Amarnath Yatra starts from July 03 and will conclude on August 09. The registration process for this journey has also started, so that devotees can register online. The philosophy of pigeons in the Amarnath Yatra is considered important because this tradition is described in the scriptures, and that is why the journey is considered incomplete without seeing pigeons. If you are also going to see Baba Barfani, then this tradition can be a special experience for you.
