Yatra to Badrinath!

HG Yugal Kishore Prabhuji, sharing about the yatra::

* Vyas Guha and Ganesh Guha, this is where Vyasdeva wrote SB.
* Adjacent to this Vyasdeva Cave, there is a very nice Saraswati River, falling down from the top of the mountain.
* Next to the cave is a big rock, called Bheem Pool.
* Little distance between Ganeshji's cave and Vyasdeva's cave.
* In Kaliyuga, ppl's memory is less, age is reducing, so many faults.
* Here, Saraswati mixes with Alkananda and then goes underground, finally, at Prayag we can see her and then she goes to the ocean.
* As Kaliyuga progresses, all rivers will slowly go underground. Only one river will stay to purify the kaliyuga world. That is Srimad Bhagavat river, the Ganga of SB.
* Making it available for the anxiety ridden ppl of Kali yuga.
* The only medicine in Kali yuga is
- nama ruchi, chanting the holy name
- jiva daya
- vaisnava seva, service to devotees
* Mother Ganga comes about in the Himalayas and her goal is to reach the ocean. But there are so many rocks on the way, it is also not straight. But still she goes up, down, side, underneath, somehow manages to go forward.
- Similarly, even in our KC, problems will come. We have to face them, and somehow continue forward towards realizing the self. Krishna gives these problems so we can come out of the bad habits and influences we have.
- Let me progress no matter what.
