My Visit to Baudi Sahib Temple and Sarovar (Behrari, Kathgarh, Punjab)

Main Temple, Baudi Sahib,
Main Temple 

In India, we can find many hidden places with lots of tourism potential but due to no promotion may places remain hidden from eyes of most of the people. One of such beautiful and peaceful place is Baudi Sahib which is famous in the local area for its Baudi (Sarovar). This Sarovar is believed to be very holy and on the festival or auspicious days, many people came here to take dip its waters. The main thing which stops you from reaching this place is the bad road which even becomes worse in the rainy season.
Temple, Baudi Sahib,

To reach Baudi Sahib, you first need to reach Kathgrah, a small town near Ropar. After reaching Kathgrah, you can find two roads to reach Baudi Sahib. Baudi Sahib is around 8 KM away from the main Phagwara-Mohali highway. Here we can find dera of Baba Sarwan Das and present Mahant of the dera takes care of this place. With the efforts of the current Mahant, a big complex and temple have been constructed at this place.

All devotees or visitors who visit this place are offered free food or tea. Baudi Sahib is situated in the middle of Kandi hills and around it, we can find tall hills. This place is very peaceful except the festival days and one can spend a quality time here.

At the one side of the complex, we can find a medium sized Sarovar to take bath. You can also take bath in sarovar; however, I have no idea about its depth so be careful. The good point of this place is that whole of complex and Sarovar are kept well and we don't find any dirt here. Many devotees regularly come here for free seva of the Ashram.

Watch the Fun of driving through the Clouds (Shimla to Solan)

In the previous post, To Shimla by Nalagarh-Ramshehar-Kunihar , I shared with my experience and some of the pictures taken on the way which shows the beauty of the surrounding. I also told you that for the journey back, I choose NH5 because of bad weather and night time. When I was descending from Shimla towards Solan, then I enjoyed driving through the descending clouds. It was a great experience to drive in the clouds with some drizzling. Below, I am sharing my experience with you through two videos. One video is of driving in the clouds and second is of the clouds descending. Video 1 - Driving through the clouds   Video 2 - Clouds Moving Down

Sidh Baba Garibnath Temple, Androli (Una, India)

I love to cover temples of Himachal Pradesh and Today, I will share with you a beautiful temple situated on the bank of the Govind Sagar Lake near Androli village of Himachal Pradesh, we can find this Shiva temple. It got its name of Sidh baba Garibnath because of a Saint with a similar name who meditated at this place. The unique thing about this temple is that it becomes inaccessible during the monsoon due to a rise in the water levels of Govind Sagar Lake. On any ordinary day, we can reach this temple by road, however, during the rainy season when the water level rises then we need the help of boats to reach this temple. This temple looks beautiful in all conditions whether it is submerged in water or out of water. When the temple is out of the water then it offers a very scenic view of Gobind Sagar lake. Every time, you visit this temple, you can find a different view because of the different water levels in the Gobind Sagar lake.  Image Source - wikimedia  Image Source -...

Beauty of Nature

Today, I got the chance to relax in the lawn outside my room. It was a blessing in disgust. As, a developing country, many states in India experience sever shortage of light in summers. In power cut, I have no choice but to go outside and sit on the grass. It was really an amazing experience for me, when I slept on the green grass, small grass started giving me a pinching affect same like aqua puncture. I was in the open sky after a long time. I have forgotten about the nature and its beauty. Even in sizzling heat, I was much comfortable under the shadow of a medium sized tree. Cool breeze was blowing from all sides. For few minutes, I thought how unfortunate I was to miss all this. I have forgotten about nature in my day to day busy life. Cities are becoming more and more concrete houses only. Pollution, noise and running people here and there is a reality. Whereas on the other hand nature is so cool and full of energy. Nature is so calm and relaxing that it looks nature is doing some...
