Hello.
How are you all my dear friends. I hope you are all fine. In today's post, I have shared with you some wonderful stories and photographs related to shri Hemkund Sahib, a holy place for Sikhs. These photographs were captured on camera when I visited shri Hemkund Sahib during the Valley of Flowers trek. Shri hemkund sahib is located in Chamoli district of Uttarakhand state, India. shri Hemkund Sahib is truly a beautiful place that is holy and gives peace of mind.
Shri Hemkund Sahib i.e. the tenth place of Sikh Guru Shri Guru Gobind Singh ji... It is also called the most difficult pilgrimage of Sikh pilgrimages. Sri Hemkund Sahib, situated on a glacier about 15 thousand 200 feet high, is surrounded by glaciers from all sides. The icy water of these glaciers, which creates a water body, it is called Hem Kund i.e. the pool of ice.
It is believed that here Shri Guru Gobind Singh Ji had worshiped Mahakal for many years. This is the reason that the Sikh community has great reverence in this pilgrimage and they reach here despite all the difficulties and every year the influx of devotees gathers here.
Gurdwara Hemkund Sahib located in the Himalayas is considered one of the holiest places of the Sikhs. It is here that Sri Guru Gobind Singh, the tenth and last Guru of the Sikhs, meditated in his past life and took his present life. This place is considered very unusual, sacred, a place of awe and reverence by the local residents here. The lake situated here and its surrounding area is also known by one name "Lokpal", which means sustainer of the people.
Whenever it comes to beauty on earth, Kashmir is the first name that comes, but there are some places in India which are not less than any paradise and this paradise is not Kashmir but some other place. We are talking about Shri Hemkund Sahib, a symbol of unwavering faith of Sikhs. Sri Hemkund Sahib situated in Chamoli, Uttarakhand is built at an altitude of 15200 feet. Shri Hemkund Sahib Gurdwara remains covered with snow for 6 months.
Shri Hemkund Sahib is known for its beauty and it is one of the most important Gurudwaras in the country. There is a lake near the Gurudwara itself. This holy place is called Amrit Sarovar i.e. pond of nectar. This lake is about 400 yards long and 200 yards wide. It is surrounded on all sides by the seven peaks of the Himalayas. The color of these peaks automatically changes according to atmospheric conditions.
Sometimes they are snow white, some times golden, sometimes red and sometimes grayish blue. This holy place is believed to exist from the time of Ramayana, it is said that Lokpal is the same place where Shri Lakshman ji sat for meditation due to his pleasant place. It is said that in his earlier incarnation, Gobind Singh ji came here for meditation.
