Haridwar - Holy City....Part 1


According to Hindu mythology, Haridwar is one among the four sites where drops of the elixir of immortality, Amrita, accidentally spilled over from the pitcher, in which it was being carried away by the celestial bird Garuda, after the Samudra manthan [3]. These four spots -- Ujjain, Haridwar, Nasik, and Allahabad -- have today become places, where the Kumbha Mela is celebrated once every 3 years in any of these 4 places and after a period of 12 years, the Maha Kumbha Mela is celebrated on the 12th year at Prayag in Allahabad. Millions of pilgrims, devotees, and tourists congregate here from all over the world to celebrate the event. They perform ritualistic bathing on the banks of the river Ganga. The spot where the nectar fell is considered to be the Brahma Kund at Har-ki-Pauri (literally, "footsteps of the Lord," and symbolically the footprints of the Amrita), the most sacred ghat of Haridwar; thousands of devotees and pilgrims flock here during festivals or snan from all over India to take a holy dip. This act is considered to be the equivalent of washing away one's sins to attain Moksha.

Haridwar and the Ganges


Haridwar along the Ganges or Ganga river, below Rishikesh where the Ganga hits the plains of north India, after debouching from the Himalaya, in Uttarakhand, India. Kumbh Mela is the largest gathering of people for a religious purpose in the world. Millions of people gather on different places for this auspicious occasion. Kumbha is a Sanskrit word for Pitcher, sometimes referred to as the Kalasha. Kumbha Mela is a mammoth fair where Hindus gather at the Ganges river. It is celebrated at different locations depending on the position of the planet of Brahaspati (Jupiter)and the sun. When Jupiter and the sun are in the zodiac sign Leo (Simha Rashi) it is held in Trimbakeshwar, Nashik; when the sun is in Aries (Mesha Rashi) it is celebrated at Haradwar; when Jupiter is in Taurus (Vrishabha Rashi ) and the sun is in Capricorn (Makar Rashi) Kumbha Mela is celebrated at Prayag; and Jupiter and the sun are in Scorpio (Vrishchik Rashi) the Mela is celebrated at Ujjain. Each site's celebration dates are calculated in advance according to a special combination of zodiacal positions of Sun, Moon, and Jupiter The major event of the festival is ritual bathing at the banks of the river in whichever town it is being held. Other activities include religious discussions, devotional singing, mass feeding of holy men and women and the poor, and religious assemblies where doctrines are debated and standardizedNaga Sadhus or Naga Babas are one of the major crowd pullers at the Kumbh Mela in <b>...</b>

Burning human corpses at Chandi Ghat, Haridwar


Burning corpses at Chandi Ghat in Haridwar. Dead bodies are cremated by Hindus, in the open and next to the Ganga or Ganges river, at this cremation ground in one of the holiest of holy Hindu cities of north India. The ashes are then consigned next door, into the river, and have no further journey time, unlike ashes from other cremations that take place across India, which needs to be carried to the Ganges river (ideally). Cremation ground workers tend to the fires that are burning simultaneously on various different pyres in this open-air cremation ground. This was filmed in the peak of the summer of 2011 - imagine standing next to a cremation fire, with its leaping flames, when the outside temperature is 47 degrees Celcius, even without the fire, and that too as it is measured in the shade! Thisfootage is part of the professionally-shot stock footage archive of Wilderness Films India Ltd., the largest collection of imagery from South Asia. The Wilderness Films India collection comprises of thousands of hours of high quality broadcast imagery, mostly shot on HDCAM 1080i High Definition, HDV and Digital Betacam.

Ganga Aarti - Har Ki Paudi - Haridwar - Part I


From vagabond-wanderer.blogspot.com, On 21-10-2007 Dharmendra Tolani and Pankaj Kumar visited Har Ki Paudi in Haridwar and attended the Ganga Aarti in the evening. Since it was Vijayadashmi(Dashahara), there was a Shobhayatra ending at Har Ki Paudi as well(as you can see in the video, some idols are brought for immersion). Before the aarti begins, some workers request people to contribute money for maintaining Har Ki Paudi and everyday Aarti. So this video is a preamble for Aarti, main Aarti is in part - II.

TV9 - RAMDEV IN HARIDWAR AFTER ATTACK IN DELHI............! Hours after being bundled out of Delhi, Baba Ramdev targeted Congress president Sonia Gandhi and government, alleging that his peaceful agitation was treated with unprecedented "barbarism" and vowed to continue his 'satyagraha' against corruption.Reaching his ashram here after the midnight crackdown at his protest site in Ramlila Ground in the national capital, a visibly shaken yoga guru alleged that there was a conspiracy to kill him and a "threat" was given to him during a meeting with senior ministers.Wearing a white ladies suit instead of his trademark saffron robes, Ramdev accused the government of not being serious about discussing issues of corruption and black money stashed abroad, and alleged that government negotiator Kapil Sibal had cheated him through "scheming and cunning" attitude.The barbarism and atrocities inflicted by police on one lakh people crossed all limits and even women and children were not spared...they dragged and beat them up," he said.Attacking Sonia while talking about last night's developments, Ramdev said "She is running the government by remote-control. She is daughter-in-law of this country... she does not love the mothers and sisters of this country.""If anything happens to me, Sonia and Congress government will be responsible...the government, especially the Congress, do not want to see me alive as my movement can expose their black deeds," he said.However, asked if he feels <b>...</b>

Haridwar - INDIA


Haridwar, literally Gateway to God, is one of the Hindu holy places in India and a center of Hindu religion and mysticism for centuries. Located on the banks of River Ganges (Ganga), at the point where the Ganges descends from the hills to the North Indian plains, Haridwar attracts a large number of Hindu pilgrims from all over the world. Haridwar is about 200 kms from Delhi, the capital of India and is well connected by road and rail network from all parts of India. It is better to avoid travelling to Haridwar during the hindu month of sawan (around july) since there is a heavy crowd and all important roads are blocked and most of the hotels/busses/trains are crowded. * By Air- Dehradun's Jolly Grant airport, with twice daily service to Delhi on Air Deccan [3], is 20 km from Haridwar. * By Train- Haridwar Junction (IR station code : HW) is well-connected by train. The railway station is located on the south side of the town, within walking distance of most hotels. * By Bus- Haridwar's bus station, a stone's throw from the train station, is chaotic and has no signage whatsoever in English. There are regular bus services from Delhi (4-5 hours), Rishikesh (1 hour) and other important towns of North India to Haridwar. Though they claim they reach New Delhi in 4-5 hours they take at least 6-7 hours. *Hotels- Here all types of hotels are availbale. For most of the hotels the check-in time is 12 Noon. Plenty of Dharmshalas are also available in Haridwar. and 24 kms from <b>...</b>
