Amarnath Yatra

The Amarnath Yatra is a 40-day annual pilgrimage undertaken by Hindu devotees in the name of Lord Shiva. It is held in the Jammu and Kashmir region in northern India. Pilgrims climb up the mountain to visit the cave where a shivling made of ice and snow is visible during the monsoon months in India. Mythology suggests that Lord Shiva revealed the secret to his eternity in the holy cave where devotees flock for darshan. Kashmiri folklore also suggests that the cave was found by a shepherd called Buta Malik in 1850. At the cave, Buta received a bag of coal that later turned into gold. He is believed to have told his story to the Kashmiri Pandits who began visiting the cave to pray. The Amarnath Yatra is held at the specific time of year in July-August because it is not safe to travel during other months. The snow in the Valley begins to melt around May in the summer, and that is when the preparations for the Amarnath journey begin. The Amarnath Yatra usually coincides with the Hindu holy month of Shravan when most devotees observe a fast on Mondays and also do not consume non-vegetarian food the entire month. But is is advised to ensure safe travel even during July-August to Amarnath, as the area is mountainous and accident prone. Several accidents take place and in 2017, as many as 17 people died when the bus they were travelling in fell into a gorge. In 2017, there was also a terrorist attack in the night that killed several people who were on their way back from the Amarnath Yatra. It is advisable to follow travel advisory from the government and also check the health of each individual travelling in the group before embarking on the difficult Amarnath Yatra. Amarnath Yatra: Who Discovered The Cave? All You Need to Know About The Pilgrimage. | HELPLINE: Srinagar-Jammu National Highway: Jammu and Kashmir Police Helpline For Information on Amarnath Yatra Pilgrims.
