2 months agoThe Amarnath Cave is a sacred Hindu shrine located in Jammu & Kashmir at an altitude of about 3,888 meters in the Himalayas. It houses a naturally formed ice Shivlinga, symbolizing Lord Shiva, which waxes and wanes with the phases of the moon. The cave is reached through the annual Amarnath Yatra, undertaken by thousands of pilgrims during July–August, guided by traditional routes from Pahalgam or Baltal. The shrine is considered one of the holiest sites for Shaivites and holds immense religious significance in Hinduism.

4 months agoVisiting the sacred Amarnath Cave in 2024 was truly a once-in-a-lifetime experience for me. Nestled high in the Himalayas, this spiritual journey is not just a trek – it’s a test of devotion, endurance, and faith. The moment I laid eyes on the naturally formed Shivling made of ice, I was filled with awe and a deep sense of peace. The energy inside the cave is beyond words – it’s something you feel in your soul. Despite the challenging weather and high altitude, every step felt worth it. The stunning beauty of the snow-capped mountains, the chants of "Bam Bam Bhole," and the camaraderie among fellow yatris made it even more special. The entire Yatra was well-organized, with help and medical facilities available at regular intervals. I am grateful to the Indian Army, local volunteers, and the shrine board for their incredible efforts in making this pilgrimage smooth and safe. If you ever get the chance, don’t think twice about going. It’s not just a religious journey, it’s a spiritual awakening that stays with you forever. Har Har Mahadev 🙏 insta- itsmanishkumar24

5 months agoAfter saw cave it was speechless reaction for pilgrims. Oxygen level and air pressure are very low. So, care yourself from this situation. Don't saw any type josh, just relax and go it. If you showing your josh (speed running, fast running, jumping, loudly talk, loudly smilling) then you have problem for low Oxygen or low air pressure. So, be careful about it.

4 months agoNo words can truly capture the experience of the Amarnath Yatra. It’s not just a journey — it’s a calling, a pull from the divine. Only by the grace of Lord Shiva does one reach His sacred abode. Every step, every ache, every breath feels worth it the moment you lay your eyes on Baba Barfani. In that one glimpse, all pain melts away, all struggles feel small. Something inside you shifts… you begin to feel a powerful presence — not just around you, but within you. A divine energy that led you there, that carried you through, and that will stay with you forever.

4 months agoI completed my Amarnath yatra and got the bless of Baba Barfani Amarnath on 8 August 2024 . JAY Baba Barfani. The world famous shrine of Amarnathji is situated about 48 Kms. from Pahalgam and attracts devotees from all over India. It is located in the upper reaches of District Anantnag at an altitude of about 13,000 ft. from the sea level. Lord Shiva revealed the secrets of immortality and creation to his consort, Goddess Parvati, in this very cave. Devotees undertake the arduous journey to seek blessings and have a glimpse of the ice linga, which is said to naturally form every year. One of the most sacred Hindu pilgrimages, Amarnath is worldwide famous for the natural formation of Shiva Linga from the snow. This divine Yatra to the holy cave is opened only in the months of Shravan i.e. July and August as these are the only months when it is quite easy to access the holy cave. 🙏🙏 Jay Baba Barfani Sri Amarnath, again i came here secound time to Holy Cave and blessed with Baba Barfani on 25 July 2025 🙏🙏
