An Interesting #Thread on today's Gurukuls.

While my ultimate destination was #Badrinath , one of my halts were at Rudraprayag. When I was making my way to Sangam, where Alaknanda meets Mandakini, I was surprised to see a Gurukul here.

1/6

This Gurukul has the capacity of 40 children. It not only teaches children free of cost but also gives them accommodation and meals at no charge.

At the moment, it covers the primary section. For further studies, they go to Kashi.

2/6

"Shri 108 Swami Sacchidanand Sanskrit Mahavidyalaya" teaches Veda, Vedant, Purana, Jyotish vidya, Artha Shastra, Vigyan & Civics and all that in Sanskrit & Hindi/English.

They later can choose their subject of choice for graduation and post graduation.

Thank you all my tweep family for your concern about us being in #Badrinath during the #RedAlert with mobile networks down.
Had the fortune of getting peaceful & long Darshans of #BadriVishal ji 3-4 times every day- sharing some in the thread.

18th morning Darshan of Shri #Badrinath ji.
It rained constantly from 17th afternoon till 19th as if to bless us with multiple Darshans with hardly anybody around.

19th morning Darshan of #Badrinath ji 🙏🏻 the Mandir played hide & seek with the clouds ..

After being locked in #Badrinath for last 4 days due to Red Alert, closure of toads and crash of mobile networks, today we are back to the foothills of Himalyas.
But boy! What amazing 4 days they were.
Badrinath without crowds, walk in for darshan multiple times a day…

👆 Thats how the weather changed in minutes. We got to see a side of Badrinath most pilgrims miss out.
That is the unrivalled natural beauty of Badrinath.
And Mana, the last Indian village before China border. Their crafts, their people, theor lives, their folklore..

Vedic Gyaan

@vedicgyaanindia

The picturesque town of Badrinath is where divinity meets with the serenity of nature. Located in the Chamoli district in Uttarakhand at the height of 3,133 meters, the pre-eminent abode of Lord Vishnu is one of the holiest of the holy shrines of Char Dham pilgrimage in India.

Situated between Nar and Narayan peaks, the pious land of Vishnu also belongs to the Chota Char Dham Yatra in Uttarakhand. Starting with Yamunotri, Gangotri and Kedarnath, Badrinath is the last and most celebrated stop in the pilgrimage tour of Garhwal Himalayas.

Badrinath Dham is easily accessible by motorable roads and the Badrinath temple can be reached by walking along an easy trek. Around 3 km from Badrinath is the village of Mana, which is one of the last villages before the boundary of India ends and that of Tibet begins.
