With an endeavor to revive Hinduism, the great Hindu reformer Adi Shankaracharya founded the Chardham Yatra during the 8th century AD. The name “Char Dham” rightfully refers to four abodes of the Almighty, namely Gangotri, representing Ganga-the godess of power, Kedarnath depicting the dwelling of Lord Shiva, Badrinath symbolizing the home of Lord Vishnu and Yamnotri signifying the godess of strength Yamuna. Housed at the Himalayan base of Garhwal (Uttaranchal), all the aforesaid locations find a great religious reverence amongst the Hindus and are associated with divine mythical legends.
Hindus believe that visiting the Char Dhams will obliterate thei1`r sins and exonerate their souls from the shackles of immorality. Hence every year, Hindus make headway and adore the Char Dham Yatra by their presence. Though the calendar for the annual Chardham Yatra 2012 has not yet been revealed, it will possibly begin around the month of April, continuing right till Diwali.
