Rishikesh vibes #HanumanMandir Day1
Day2 hitting the road that leads to maa Ganga, riding the tough Himalayan terrain in #Devbhoomi with some breathtaking scenes on the way to #Devprayag
Ganganadi as we see in Prayagraj,Haridwar comes into existence due amazing confluence of calm deep green Alakananda (most of rivers merge into this) n bustling sea green Bhagirathi at #Devprayag The Video from Alakananda side at sangam. Did Pitru tarpanam 🙏 twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Atop of sangam lies Raghunath ji mandir the 99or103 Divyadesam of 'Neelamega Perumal' or Raghunath ji - Sri Rama has 'Aravinda lochanas'. Rama did penance here for Brahmana hatya dosham after killing Ravana. #Devprayag was Dasaratha's tapasya bhoomi too.
Day3 Chaurasi Kutiya/Maharshi Mahesh Yogi Ashram famously known as #TheBeatlesAshram is now an quiet n tranquil abandoned place inside Tiger reserve forest, having broken walls yet with great murals 🤘 twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
Some more from #TheBeatlesAshram . Yes I loved #GeorgeHarrison of the four and the collaboration with #PanditRavishankar ji.
Latest addition #JanakiJhula to existing Ram and Lakshman jhulas is very well planned n contstucted joining two parts of Rishikesh where Ganga ji stretches the widest ! Hanuman ji and Sita mata mural is the main highlight of the bridge twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
People at Ghat. Ashirvadam n friendly chat with a sadhu (Suresh ji) for a daan I gave. A yatra group from Thailand in an attempt to connect to the real roots of Budhha : Sanatana Dharma. Their 'Achan' (Acharya) is a Shiva bhakt. Very heart warming to see'em
Thai group's Indian guide Aravind discusses n says people in Thailand believe Budhha's roots are Hindu so they do believe in the rituals and look towards Bharat for that rich culture. We both agreed whats wrong in India. See : Sanskrit mantras written in Thai twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
As they are returning from the ghat, I thanked 'Achan' for often bringing his people here, for connecting the ties with Sanatana Dharma. Met a french lady too helping her with Diya into Ganga n both agreed that #weloveRishikesh 😃 The thread ends 🙏#Devbhoomi
