BADARINATH
The Himalayan abode of Sri Maha Vishnu

UNIQUENESS

Badarinath temple, bares with Kedarnath shrine many aspects, like location, origin, history, divinity, traditions, pilgrim influx and the like. Similarities between the two permeate and analogies strike the eye of the pilgrim at every stage of journey, but only to differ in fundamentals at the destination. It is a Vaishnava Kshetra first and last, dedicated to Sri Maha Vishnu, the most ;powerful among the Trio. For the pure religionists, the difference is as wide as ocean, but for the ordinary devotees, whose knowledge dreads hearing the hair-splitting arguments, it is quite as important and good as that of Kedarnath. And lo! Such children of God are millions and they hasten to both of them with equal fervour and offer prayers with ardour that does not betray any difference, even if seen with a microscope.
