hence the shrine has been located on the
foot of the hill. The approach is
extremely difficult and pilgrims

Kedarnath
Temple :- |
|
According
to legend, Lord Shiva wished to elude
the Pandavas, who had come to seek
penitence for having killed their kin in
the battle of Kurukshetra. He took
refuge in Kedarnath in the form of a
bull. Bhima, one of the Pandava
brothers, found Shiva amongst a herd of
cattle. Having identified the meanest
and most arrogant of the herd as Shiva,
Bhima is said to have grabbed him by the
hindquarters. What remains at the shrine
in Kedarnath is the rear end of the
bull, with the rest of its body
scattered throughout the Garhwal. Shiva
dived into the ground leaving behind him
a hump on the surface. This conical
protrusion is worshipped as the idol. It
is the main site of the Panch Kedar
temples.
