Swargadwari, which literally means gateway to heaven. Swargadwari is associated with a saint named Swargadwari Mahaprabhu (Swami Shree Hansananda Giri) who took samadhi in 1940 AD. Many believe that the Swargadwari Guru Maharaj was an incarnation of God. He performed Yagyas and spent all his life in this place herding and milking thousands of cows. He took his last breath (Samadhi) in this very place and all the rituals he started have been continued by his disciples till date.It is a must see destination for Hindu pilgrims.
This place is believed to be the Taposthali where Tapasya (meditation) was performed by the Pancha Pandavas during their journey in the Himalayas enroute to the Heaven. Also, this is believed to be the very place from where Yudhistir (the eldest son of Pandava) entered Heaven (Swarg) with his dog.
Here are some Photos taken by me at Swargadwari on April 2018. (Sorry for posting it late. I just found the DSLR’s extra Memory Card now so I am posting these photos now). Hope you will like them.
