The Char Dham Yatra began yesterday with the reopening of the portals of Gangotri and Yamunotri shrines. While Kedarnath and Badrinath will be reopened on 9 and 10 May.
The first group left yesterday morning at 4am, from Tapovan. Here the cars before departure (in front of Shri Balak Nath Mandir):
And here a bigger group that has left for the Yatra – also with blessing from punditji.
(Under the scorching sun, guests wait inside the bus.)
Monday, as per tradition, the ceremonial procession of lord Kedarnath started from Ukhimath (see video below). Yesterday, the procession halted at Gaurikund and reached Kedarnath today. Kedarnath shrine will be reopened to the devotees at 5:35 AM on May 9.

This is a beautiful example of a small temple that is fully integrated in people’s life in the Garhwal region of Uttarakhand. Following snapshots and a video of local women celebrating – a daylong carefree, joyful get together, including praying / chanting / dancing/ food and flower offerings to Devi. Celebrating the inner and outer devi.
This temple is a smaller sister of the major Surkanda Devi Mandir in Dhanaulti.
Respect for and appreciation of traditions and culture,
respect for and appreciation of women of all generations,
respect for and appreciation of the goddess,
respect for and appreciation of the divine powers larger than us humans.
All this still does exist in India.
Background ‘Surkanda Devi’:

It’s been a while… and so much has happened since our last post. For example, Rishikesh went through a major overhaul of its infrastructure:
- New roads and new road surfaces between the market and Tapovan, and also all the way to Dehradun;
- Installation of road security reflectors and borders, especially in the area through the forest towards Jolly Grant airport and Dehradun;
- Building of pedestrians, fences and an entire new road structure with parking spaces at Rishikesh bus stand;
- Planting of hundreds of trees;
- Painting public spaces, walls, etc;
- New electricity wiring and cable connections;
- New road lamps;
Earlier this year the entire promenade along Ganga between Ram Jhula and Lakshman Jhula got newly paved. There are also now generous seating areas with beautiful pavilions and benches.
So whether you plan your first visit to Rishikesh, or come repeatedly, there are lots of improvements to discover, and enjoy.

Some snapshots from yesterday’s trip to Dhari Devi, between Srinagar and Rudraprayag. The roads were all clear and we enjoyed her blessings.
“Dhari Devi is considered to be the guardian deity of Uttarakhand and is revered as the protector of the Char Dhams. Her shrine is one of 108 Shakti Sthals in India, as numbered by Srimad Devi Bhagwat.”
