 SHRI
AMARNATH YATRA
The
of the most important event during July/ August, is
Amarnath Yatra to the Holy Pilgrimage. This is an
annual event when thousands of Hindus from different
corners of the Globe visit Amarnath caves. The pilgrims
trek from Pahalgam to these caves and worship the great
ice Lingam.
Legend has it that Shiva recounted to Parvati the secret
of creation in a cave in Amarnath. Unknow to them, a pair
of mating doves eavesdropped on this conversation and
having learned the secret, are reborn again and again, and
have made the cave their eternal abode. Many pilgrims
report seeing the doves-pair when they trek the ardous
route to pay obeisance before the ice-lingam (the phallic
symbol of Shiva).
This is an event you certainly will talk about for
the rest of your life.
