🙏 The Kanwar festival marks the annual pilgrima

🙏 The Kanwar festival marks the annual pilgrimage of the devotees of Lord Shiva. During Shravan, in the hot monsoon season, millions of people walk or otherwise travel to this area to take a 62+ mile journey barefoot (or in simple flip flops) while carrying a bamboo pole with 2 clay pots hanging from each end.
.
🧡 Throughout this long trek they visit Hindu pilgrimage sites by the Holy Ganges and collect water that will be offered in Shiva temples. The carriers must take extra care not to allow the clay pots to ever touch the ground along the way.
.
🙏 They also forgo comfortable "luxuries" (like sleeping or resting in a bed), follow a strict vegetarian diet, and wear saffron colored clothing for its duration.
.
🔱 As the festival comes to an end, devotees will walk the Ganga water on poles carefully back to their hometowns to be offered in their own community temples.
.
🇮🇳 It is one of the largest religious gatherings in North India and a spectacular sight to see. The devotion is absolutely beautiful and breathtaking. India continues to steal my heart.

🙏 Guru Purnima in Rishikesh was amazing.

📚 The word guru is translated as "one who dispells darkness".
.
🔱 This day marks the occasion of the first yogi, Shiva sharing the science of yoga with his first disciples.
.
☀️ I am happy to have met several such individuals along my journey and am grateful to those who have shown me how to "open the curtains" so that I too can see the light.
.
🙏 Special thanks to Guru Ji for sharing knowledge with me over the last 5 years and to all the teachers in my life who have helped me to understand this path and to see.
