Some Pictures of Badrinath‏

Starting point of Ganga: On left is Gangotri and on right is Alaknanda. From this point on, it is called Ganga


Badrinath temple: Bottom of picture, with yellow roof

Ganesh Gufa (Cave): Place where Lord Ganesh wrote the entire Bhagavad Gita etc. The door at the end of the stairs leads to the inside of the cave

Front view of the cave: The natural opening of the cave has been plugged with walls and doors by the so-called advanced humans. This is the cave from where Vyasa narrated the entire Bhagavad Gita, etc

Closer front view of the roof of cave: Stratified roof resembles leaves from a huge book



Top-Back view of Vyas Gufa

The lone (supposedly poisonous) Berry tree next to roof of Vyas Gufa. Vyas meditated under the berry trees, as mentioned in Srimad Bhagavatam

Tea shop next to Vyas Gufa. It says it is India's last tea shop. Immediately after Mana village (where Vyas and Ganesh gufas are located), Indian army takes over the rest of 50 miles of India and then is border with Tibet (now occupied by China). So to say that Vyas looks over the whole of India from this cave!
