TREKS n TRAVELS


                                   
                  

                       Shreekhand Mahadev


Nobody has actually seen God but if u can actually feel yourself most close to him where you can reach  the brim to  heaven , then I must say ot is shreekhand mahadev . it actually takes you through all ups and down of gods mystery .. sometimes he makes conditions so miserale for you t sustain but you wins out of all those mental and physical pressures , reaches this devine heaven . it feels great to stand at the highest peak among others with a 72 feet long naturally originated shivling .wonder how a 72 feet long stone fell at the top of the highest peak .. did it come from sky or is ot real significance of Lord shiva .




Myth:

 Accoding to the pauranik story daityaraj Bhasamasur did very hard tapasaya of Mahadev and Mahadev got very happy with the tapsaya of Bhasamsur. Then Bhasamasur got the bhasam kangan from Mahadev as a worship. Lord Mahadev had said that the person will get bhasam on which you will use this bhasam kangana . Due to higher ego Bhasamasur had tried to use the same bhasama kangan on Mahadev.
Bhasamsur ran behind the Mahadev and Mahadev got disappear in a gufa(cave) (that is called Devdank now a days and is near to Nirmand) and appeared on a hill. That hill got khandit and due to this that hill is worshiped as Shivalingam and it is know as Shrikhand Mahadev.
