Badrinath Temple: Chardham Yatra has started. After opening the doors of Kedarnath on 10th May, the doors of Badrinath temple have also been opened yesterday on 12th May. At that time a large number of devotees had reached Badrinath Dham. As soon as the cupboard was opened, the inside of the house was visible, which was a very auspicious sign for the country.
Chief Rawal Ishwar Prasad Namboodiri was the first person to enter the temple as soon as the doors opened at 6 am on May 12. When he looked inside, the priest was happy.
In fact, the blanket of ghee that was put on the idol of Lord Badrinath in the sanctum sanctorum while closing the doors of the temple six months ago, was found in exactly the same condition when the doors were opened today.
Finding the ghee and blanket in the same condition as before is considered a very auspicious sign, which made the devotees very happy. Then according to tradition it was predicted that this year there would be no famine anywhere in the country and there would be prosperity.
In fact, every year during the winter season, Lord Badrinath is covered with a blanket of ghee before the doors of Badrinath Dham are closed for 6 months. This custom is done every year. It is said that if ghee is available like this then there will be no drought anywhere in the country. If the ghee blanket is found dry then it is considered inauspicious. This indicates drought and crisis in the Himalayan region.
