Nagni Sar - Aadi Brahma of Rohalgi


झील को नागनी सर कहा जाता है क्योंकि यह नाग देवता को समर्पित है जहां रोहलगी के आदी ब्रह्मा पूरे क्षेत्र के पीठासीन देवता हैं

 नमस्कार आज मैं आपको एक मोटी ही शांत और खूबसूरत जगह के वारे मे बता रहा हूँ  जिसका नाम  'नागणी सर ' और यह जगह  कुल्लू ( हिमाचल प्रदेश  )  मे है  इस जगह के बारे मे बहुत कम लोगों को ही पता है. क्यूंकि यह कोई टूरिस्ट प्लेस नहीं है बल्कि ऐसे ही  लोकल लोगो की आस्था का केंद्र है , यहाँ नाग देवता का वसेरा है जिसे यहाँ के लोग अपना देवता मानते  और नाग देवता को  जयदा शोर सराबा  पसंद नहीं  है  ये  हमें एक लोकल आंटी ने बताया था ,  बो तो यह भी बोल रही थी की यह जगह घुमने के लिए नहीं आस्था के लिए है  और उसने  यह  भी बोला की अगर आप ब्राह्मण या राजपूत हो तभी तलाब के अन्दर जाना नहीं तो बहार ही रुकना । यह बात सुन के मुंझे जयदा हैरानी नहीं हुई क्यूंकि कुल्लू साइड सभी के अपने देवता होते है और उनके कुछ अपने  सिद्धांत होते हैं और  लोगो उन्ही  सिधान्तो के आधार पर चलते है  और मेरे हिसाब से वो सही ही  बोल रही थी क्योंकि कोई बहार से आये और उनकी सदियों पुराणी परम्परा तोड़ दे ये कोई नहीं चहैगा  और बहार के  लोगो के  लिए तो यह एक टूरिस्ट प्लेस से जयदा कुछ नहीं पर यहाँ के लोगो के  लिए यह उनके पूर्बजों की परथा  या यूँ कहुँ श्रद्धा ,आस्था , धर्म , विश्वास बड़ा कुछ  है  इसीलिए कभी भी हिमाचल की  किसी जहग मे जाके उड़-धंग ना मचाये वहां की शान्ति बनाये रखें  नहीं तो बेटा पहाडिये  घसे भी रखते हैं  😆 । 

एक तो साला समझ नहीं आ रहा क्या लिखू पर जो मै लिख रहा हूँ ये तो आपको  गूगल देवता भी नहीं बतायंगे । जब हम ऊपर पहुंचे थे तब कुछ अलग सा ही फील हो रहा था जिसको बाकए  ही शांति बोलते है ऊपर एक नाग देवता का मन्दिर है साथ मे एक रहस्यामई  तलाब , तलाब के बारे मे आपको लास्ट मे  बताऊंगा अभी आपको ये बता दूँ की यह जगह कहां है और आप कैसे जा सकते है  कुल्लू मे भुंतर से तीन -चार घंटे का रास्ता है पैदल। आप भुंतर मे किसी लोकल से पूछ लोगे तो वो आपको बता देगा वैसे आजकल टेक्नोलॉजी का जमाना भी है  लोकेशन आपको गूगल मैप पर मिल जायगी पर आप अगर लोगो को पूछ कर जाओगे जयदा अच्छा रहेगा।
वैसे इस फोटो मे हेयर स्टाइल तो सेक्सी लग रहे हैं मेरा  हैना 😀?

वैसे यहाँ रुकने का जुगाड़ सा तो है पर जुगाड़ ही है प्रॉपर व्यबस्था नहीं 😀 bc कभी कभी तो  मै मोटी ही शुद्ध  हिन्दी लिख रहा हूँ  पले तो पड़ रही है ना।
यहाँ  ना तो  खाने का सीन है और ना ही रेहने का तो अगर कभी जाओ  तो सब कुछ लेके ही जाना  खाने,पीने का समान मतलब पानी भी लेके ही जाना  ऊपर तलाब तो है पर बहुत कम लोग ही वो पानी पी पाते हैं पर मैंने तो पी लिया था  और जिन्दा भी हूँ 😅 मै तो  इस तलाब के चकर  मे ही गया था बड़ा सुना था इसके बारे मे , तलाब की स्टोरी लास्ट मै ही है , और हाँ  हम भी  अपना तम्बू लेके ही  गये थे और खाना बनाने का समान भी हंजी हमने रात का खाना ऊपर ही बनाया था और  हाँ हम दो ही लोग गए थे एक ने तम्बू उठाया था दूसरे नै कुकुर ,मसाले, प्लेट और भी बड़ा रंडी रोना और ऊपर हमने मोटी ही आइटम बना दी जिसे नमकीन चाबल बोलते हैं 😂😂  ऐसे ही bc फालतू की गरारिया ।
पर उस नमकीन चाबल का टेस्ट मटन से कम नहीं था बाबा अलग ही स्वाद। 

अब आप सब सोच रहे होने की तलाब की क्या बकचोदी है भाई तलाब ही तो है तलाब का पानी कहाँ से आता है और कहाँ जाता कोई पता नहीं और अगर आपका मन साफ होगा तभी आप पानी छू सकते हो या पी सकते हो " और ये बात उसी आंटी ने बताई थी " अगर मन साफ नहीं होगा या मन मे आस्था नहीं होगी तो आपको पानी थोड़ा सा पीला और पानी मई छोटे छोटे कीड़े टाइप दिखेंगे पर सच बोलूं तो मुंझे पानी थोड़ा खराबा सा लगा वाकि कुछ नहीं पर जो मेरे साथ गया था वो तो तलाब के अंदर भी नहीं गया और जो पानी मै पी रहा था वो बोल रहा था की उसमे उसको कीड़े दिख रहे है पर मैको लगा की उसका वहम ही था ना तो मै कोई महान हूँ ना ही आस्था वादी, सीधी सी बात है मैं हूँ नास्तिक टाइप का बन्दा जो मानता है की कर्म ही धर्म है, पूजा पाठ करने से भगवान नहीं मिलते,मेरे हिसबा से तो इन्सान का पेहला धर्म इंसानियत होना चाहिए । फिर क्या हिन्दू क्या मुसलमान क्या सिख क्या ईसाई सब खाते तो मुँह से हैं और निकलते भी एक ही जगह से , साला मेको समझ नहीं आता की भगवान कब आये धरती पर और लगा गए धर्म का थपा।
वस करता हूँ नहीं तो मेरे अंदर का बाबा जाग जायगा  और मोटी ही बाते होंगी  😂

Churdhar Mahadev's call Again

 Churdhar is a holy place related with Shri Shirgul Maharaj (Chureshwar Maharaj), a deity widely worshipped in Sirmour and Chaupal. Churdhar peak is at an elevation of 12,000 feet. It is one of the highest peak in outer Himalayas situated in Sirmour district. Churdhar and is also known as “Choori Chandni Ki Dhar”. This high point offers a commanding 3600 view; of the far-off mountains of Dhauldhar and Pir-Panjal Himalaya in North, and the gangetic plains in the South. The shimmering lights of Punjab and Haryana on a full-moon light add to the glory of this serene peak.
Churdhar is believed to be the abode of Dev Srigul, an incarnation of Shiva, born to Raja Bhokru of Sirmaur. The peak is named after Chur, a servant of Srigul and a devotee of Lord Shiva. When Srigul fought a lone battle against the tyrant Mughals, he handed over his Kingdom to Churu and thus the peak was named after the loyal servant.
Churdhar peak can be approached from at least three routes – Chaupal in Shimla district is the base for the shortest route of 7 kms, while Haripurdhar in Sirmour district is the base for a longer route of some 50 km. Nauradhar (Nohra) is the third base from where Churdhar is a 20 km climb and this is the route I took. Nauradhar is a small town on the Solan – Rajghar -Sarahan road and is about 130 km from Chandigarh, which can be covered in about five hours by car

The View from - Churu Ka Tibba 
The churu ka tibba is famous as the loyal servant of Shirgul Maharaj Churu commited suicide from this big boulder of rock with his
whole family. For me the mountains is a peaceful place where i can rest and fullfil myself positivity.
I write from my soul. That's the reason critics don't hate me, because it's me. If it wasn't me, if I would be pretending to be someone else, then there would unbalance in my world, but I know who I am.
दिल से मांगी जाए तो हर दुआ में असर होता है मंजिले उन्ही को मिलती है जिनकी जिंदगी में सफ़र होता है
@pahariyatri
In the end I would like to end it with a quote
"Live with no excuses and travel with no regrets. Never stop exploring,new adventures always awaits".

Rishikesh - Gateway to the Ganges

Rishikesh is a city in India’s northern state of Uttarakhand, in the Himalayan foothills beside the Ganges River. Rishikesh, sometimes nicknamed "Yoga Capital of the World", has numerous yoga centres that attract tourists. It is believed that meditation in Rishikesh brings one closer to attainment of moksha, as does a dip in the holy river that flows through it. 

Sunset over the Ganges from Laxman Jhula.

If you like a bit of peace and quiet and have travelled to Uttarakhand in search of space to reflect, I highly recommend staying in Tapovan – or further out – rather than in Laxman Jhula, which can get a little noisy. As for finding things to do in Rishikesh – from my experience, here, things will generally find you. Taking a quiet stroll to soak up the Ganges air, will inevitably lead you into conversations with strangers, music on ghats by the river and more.

Laxman Jhoola is one of the most famous attractions of Rishikesh, and it is resplendent! The view from the ghats down below, is just stunning. Walking on the Laxman Jhoola, across the Ganga, is something I absolutely love. It is serene and powerful and oh-so-exhilarating – all at the same time.

 Triveni Ghat a popular travel destination, auspicious bathing ghat and place of prayer on the Ganges, and the banks of the river, which are 2 km away from Ram Jhula and Laxman Jhula, where most of the accommodation, ashrams, restaurants and travelers Is kept.
Man is made by his belief, as he believes so he is.

मैं सुकून कहुँ , तुम गंगा घाट समझना
There’s something in the air – I found – that gets to you. Maybe it was the daily yoga, maybe it was the spray from the Ganges. Maybe it was the magic of the meditation hall at Aurovalley. All I know is that I felt more relaxed and at peace than I can remember feeling for a long time. And it’s that feeling that will bring me back here on future adventures.

Do not spoil the beauties of the earth with garbage.

Har Ki Pauri - Haridwar

 Haridwar means Gateway to the Lord. Har Ki Pauri is a famous ghat on the banks of the Ganges in Haridwar in the Indian state of Uttarakhand.The holy river Ganga enters the Indo-Gangetic plane after flowing for 157 kilometers, here in Haridwar. This gave the city its ancient name of Gangadwara, literally meaning ‘The gateway of the Ganga’
The evening Ganga Aarti takes places and which is considered most sacred is known as Brahm Kund, The spot where the nectar (Amrita) fell is today considered to be Brahma Kund at Har-Ki-Pauri(literally means footsteps of the Lord) which is the most sacred ghat in the Haridwar. Thousands of devotees and pilgrims flock here from all over the world to take a holy dip; it is believed that a dip here will wash away their sins or Karma and provide Moksha.
According to the India mythology, it is one of the four places where drops of elixir, Amrita accidentally spilled over from the pitcher or Kumbha, in which it was being carried away by the celestial bird Garuda, the vehicle of Lord Vishnu. These four spots have today become places where the Kumbh Mela is celebrated every 12 years in succession - Nasik, Ujjain, Haridwar and Prayagraj.It is also one of the four pilgrimages of Uttarkhand  – Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri, Yamnotri. Millions of devotees and tourist congregate from all over the world to celebrate this celestial event and perform ritualistic bathing on the banks of the river Ganges.


A fascinating Statue of Lord Shiva across the river about half a Km away. 100 ft tall statue of Lord Shiva is situated across the Gange river, Its one of the tallest Shiva statues of India.
गंगा तो  नहीं लाया पर खाली हाथ भी नहीं आया हूँ , मन मे मचलती लहरों मे सुकून लेकर आया हूँ

Saroa - Jalpa Mata Temple


Jalpa Mata Temple is situated at the beautiful Saroa peak. Here you can find apple orchids and forest. Wooden carpentry is done and when wind blows. Small kandeels made of wooden make the awesome music. Jalpa mata temple is constructed in such a way that it perfectly suits the climatic conditions of the local environment.

Saroa is a beautiful place near Chail Chowk at a distance of 15 KM from here . Saroa offers unique view of Bahl valley and various ranges of Himalayas on clear day.

 Saroa is a start point of trek to Kamrunag Lake which is about 8 KM . through forest, various wildlife may be encounter between the route so be careful. The temple situated top on the hill here the flow of air are feel a uniqueness peace to soul.

There are no facilities here as saroa is completely un-touched by frequent traveler even though some locals of Mandi district and nearby places visit the Saroa for worshiping at the temple.The architect of the temple is also an attractive point. The entire temple was made of wood. During the working period, the artist kept the whole fast. 

We stayed in Cedar Valley Homstay , the food and the hotel location where  Apples orchard are make the hotel more attractive.
This Maruti 800 is not only for the exhibition but it is a useful four wheeler like pickup truck and used for to get a package (hotel ingredients) that needs to be shipped to another location.
I am hoping in near future good facilities going to setup and govt take responsibility to promote these beautiful places as new travel destination, which helps local and govt to get revenue.

Kamrunag Dev - A Legend Warrior


 Dev Kamrunag’s original name was Ratan Yaksha and he was a self-learned warrior. Like  every other temple, peak, and lake in the Himalayas, this lake too has a story. It is believed that the Lord KamruNag wanted to participate in the great battle of Mahabharat. However, he witnessed the battle until its end.Today, villagers visit the lake and the temple to pray to the Rain God during summers and it is believed that only after prayers have been offered to the Lord, the rainy season marks its presence in the valley. Every year a three day fair is held at this place in the middle of the June.  People offer gold,silver and coins throwing into the lake.
There are two or three routes for Kamrunag Trek and  We choose the most popular route to reach the temple via Rohanda village, where Kamranag is about 8 km. This is the main and also shortest route.
It takes only 2-3 hours for the top, During the trek we enjoy the scene of the unexpected sunset of nature, it was the best.
We establish our tent near the lake .The location of the tent shows that we are staying under the billion star hotel all night and it is very beautiful, the noise-free, natural sound is echoing the soul.  That words can't express that kind of peace.
This trend is being followed by centuries.No one knows how much currency notes, coins, gold and silver jewellery is settled in the base of lake as due to religious significance people does not step inside the lake. But it is a common site to see currency notes floating on the lake water.
Kamrunag Beautiful Lake






So who's packing their bags to visit these beautiful Lake ?
