Pushkar Pilgrimage
One of the most sacred sites
for the Hindus, Pushkar is a very ancient place. The antiquity of
the place can be gauged from the fact that circumstances leading
to its origin have been extensively dealt with in the ancient
scripture of the Padma (Lotus) Purana. According to the text,
Pushkar came into being, when Lord Brahma, Creator in the Hindu
Trinity, dropped petals of lotus flower (pushpa) to earth from
his hand (kar) to kill a demon. This resulted in the formation of
three lakes in the desert land. The largest of these lakes is
today revered as one of India's most sacred sites and bounded by
temples and bathing ghats.
Though Pushkar attracts devotes all round the year, it is during
the five-day Kartik Purnima festival which witnesses a seething
sea of humanity pouring out into the streets of this sacred town.
Devotees take a dip in the redemptory waters of the lake and
worship at the Brahma Temple. It is interesting to know that the
shrine is the only one in the world dedicated to Brahma who
otherwise occupies a very important place in the Hindu pantheon
of gods.
A pilgrimage to the holy town of Pushkar with India Profile is an
unforgettable experience. The place abounds with many temples,
which are must-visits for any devout Hindu. Apart from the Brahma
Temple, other shrines of importance are Savitri Temple, Rangji
Temple, Warah Temple and Apteshwar Temple. Thanks to the extreme
sacredness of the place, it is advisable for those who travel to
Pushkar, to respect the town’s holy status and not to eat
meat or consume alcohol. In fact it is an earnest desire for
every pious Hindu to make a Pushkar pilgrimage.
