If you’re planning a pilgrimage to Shri Kedarnathji, here’s something we’d like you to do. Allow us to plan it for you. All you have to do is sign up for the package we offer:Amidst
the dramatic mountainscapes of the majestic Kedarnath
range stands one of the twelve Jyotirlingas of Kedar
or Lord Shiva. Lying at an altitude of 3584 m on the
head of river Mandakini, the shrine of Kedarnath is
amongst the holiest pilgrimages for the Hindus. There
are more than 200 shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva
in the district itself, the most important one is
Kedarnath.
According to legend, the Pandavas
after having won over the Kauravas in the Kurukshetra
war, felt guilty of having killed their own brothers
and sought the blessings of Lord Shiva for redemption.
He eluded them repeatedly and while fleeing took refuge
at Kedarnath in the form of a bull. On being followed
he dived into the ground, leaving his hump on the
surface. The remaining portions of Lord Shiva appeared
at four other places and are worshipped there as his
manifestations. The arms appeared at Tungnath, the
face at Rudranath, the belly at Madhmaheshwar and
his locks (hair) with head at Kalpeshwar. Kedarnath
and the four above mentioned shrines are treated as
Panch Kedar.
