Chandrashila that literally suggests the ‘Moon Rock’ is the summit of the Chandranath Parvat on which the Tungnath temple of Panch Kedar is situated. The majestic Chandrashila summit serves as a vantage point that offers a heavenly panorama of the Great Himalayas. According to
the legend, Bhagwan Rama meditated at the Chandrashila peak, which is nearby Tungnath temple after killing Ravana. Also, some said Moon God spent time here in penance.
You can witness the views of splendid peaks like Nanda Devi, Kedarnath, Chowkhamba, and Neelkanth during the moderate 5 km trek to the temple.

You must have read some books or have heard from many yogis about Chakras. But, do you know what chakras are? How do they work? In the Sanskrit language, chakra means wheel. Here, the spiritual meaning of chakra is “a wheel of flowing energy” in the body. We have 114 chakras in
total in the human body, and they work as the connection or junction of the Nadis. The Nadis are the passage of prana or energy in the body. Out of the 114 Chakras, two of them are outside the physical body. In reality, we can only work on 108 chakras from the remaining 112
Chakras. However, we only need 21 chakras to be active in our body to live a full-fledged life. Due to the three dimensions of energy, Pingala, Ida, and Sushumna, these 21 Chakras form 7 sets, each of them with three functioning Chakras that work as one. Therefore, you will be

Yoga in Sanskrit is ‘Yuj’ which means to unite or to join. During yoga, the body and mind unite to form a single unit, along with the presence of the soul. The whole body acts like one. Yoga in Bhagwad Gita is said to be in equanimity. It is the ability to control and stay calm
in every situation in life. In the yogic culture, Shiva is not known as a god, but as the Adiyogi or the first yogi – the originator of yoga. He was the one who first put this seed into the human mind. Adiyogi, transmitted yoga to the Sapta Rishis or the seven sages many
thousands of years ago. He found it was too difficult to put everything he knew into one person, so he chose seven people and put different aspects of yoga into them.
