Uniqueness
Kedarnath
temple, enshrining one of the twelve Jyotirlingas of our Punya
Bharat Varsha is situated on the Himalayan slope in the Gharwal
district of Uttar Pradesh. It has several unique features that have
not been enjoyed by
any other Saivakshetra, existing since the Dwapara Yuga. Sacred
Vedas and Epics, Ithihasas and Samhithas embody numerous references
and bring out its glory in glowing terms, filling in hundreds of
pages of every genre of our literature. They highlight justifiably
its sanctity and prove its uniqueness from the stand point of its
location in both snow clad peaks; habitation of Lord Maheswar
Himself for six months a year, and visitation by celestials
periodically.
