This incident was back in 2007. We went to kedarnath in the month of May. I was just 8 years old. And my mom is a very great devotee of him. We climbed all the way up. And at last moment we got a news that there is a death that happened due to helicopter blades. And the temple is going to close for the day. We are from Bangalore. And it's not easy for us to go again to see the god. So we thought let's just go till the temple and offer our prayers outside and return. And we went. And when we reached the temple area. We saw the preist and asked him if we could just see the god once. To our surprise he invited us inside and gave us few clean clothes. And told my mother to clean the jyotirlinga.
And we were inside for almost an hour cleaning every part of the temple. And now I realise how lucky we were back then.

It's tough to survive in such harsh conditions. These workers and engineerings are not just living there but working in the snow. Hats off. Everything which looks perfect, has lots of hard work.

I would love to share our story of our visit to Kedarnath ji last year. The weather was really unpredictable as we planned to take helicopter ride till Kedarnath ji. The moment your feet touches the holy grounds of the land, you can surely feel the connect, closeness and presence of the Kedarnath Mahadev. There is a different level of experience everyone has once they stood out of the helicopter. I was so overwelmed that my eyes went wet with emotions of joys after having a look at the temple where you have to walk a little bit and reach. I thing I really noticed that during that cold atmospheric condition, walking barefoot reaching the temple with the floor so cold was really tough but as you reach close to the temple, you feel the floor around the premises of temple is so warm and soothing, especially the Prangan area or the area like a small ground on the left side of temple. You can feel the difference in warmth once you step down from the prangan area everything seems cold but in that ground area and temples premises the floor is really warm. On our way down we filled 2-3 bottles of water from the water source besides the right side of temple where the conituous flow of water can be seen coming out of the mouth of small Nandi ji or cows. We planned to walk down on our way back after the darshan and we started our walking after around 5:30 pm. During the night time around 9:30 - 10:00 pm people could be seen hiking towards Kedarnath ji and during that time we met across a lady who was so exhausted and was about to fall near the stairs but we somehow managed to hold her and offer her some water that we got back from Kedarnath ji. Within a minute or two miraculously the lady stood up and started continuing her trek. We are very sure it was because of her immense faith in Kedarnath Mahadev and maybe because of the holy water from the temple premises god offered her through us. Around 11:00 pm on our way down to Gaurikund we came across two girls and a guy helping an aged Uncle to reach down somewhere safe as he was lost from his family because he didn’t want to ride the horse and get down. It was probably late night hence not much people can be seen walking and the aged Uncle was not having his shoes and his socks were all wet and freezing due to water and drizzle on the way. The girls said they were carrying him on their shoulders by supporting him as he was unable to walk properly because of cold feet and no shoes. I had a thought whether one of us should get our shoes to him to walk but the Uncle was unable to even keep his feet on ground properly so to help the girls and the boy, me and my friend took the uncle with shoulder support from both sides and managed to get him down till Gaurikund for a stretch of about 5.5 to 6 kms from up. Due to this our group reached the vehicle stop earlier than us and we reached down around 2:30 am. We tried to coordinate with some local shop and made the uncle have a nice hot tea and wait for their someone from their family to arrive at that particular place and informed the local police as well. Everyone in the group were really angry once we reached to the stop but after listening to the whole story, one of the member of our group said these very words…….“BHOLE BABA NE TUMHARI PARIKSHA LII HAI AUR BACHOON TUM PASS HO GAYEE”………("LORD BHOLENATH TOOK YOUR EXAM AND ON YOUR WAY DOWN YOU GUYS PASSED THE EXAM........................."

Just feel blessed to visit this place and experience the beauty...no doubt the trek is full of risks and courage of drivers, workers there is just speechless, they are holding there lives in their fists. As much we devote lord Shiva, i feel these people deserves same worship to make it possible for common people like us you travel and reach the heavenly place "Kedarnath" safely. Without these courageous souls, it would be impossible for us to dare to trek..Hats off 🙌
