Prasagraj: After the Supreme Court asked the Uttar Pradesh government not to allow symbolically Kanwar Yatra in the state, Akhil Bharatiya Akhara Parishad (ABAP) – The peak decision-making agency of the 13 monastic orders of the country – has asked worshipers to consider the suggestion of the apex court and not to take Yatra.
Yogi Adityanath’s head minister also asked the government to hold talks with the Kanwar Association to discuss this issue so that the resolution can be found.
Abap President, Mahant Narendra Giri said, “In the name of Akhara Parishad, I want to appeal to Shiva worshipers not to issue Kanwar Yatra, given the possibility of the third wave of Covid-19 pandemic.
On the contrary, the worshipers must make partthiva shivlinga (shivalinga made of land Liat) in their home and offer gangga river water or in this case even from the local pool of their village to the god of Shiva.
“He further said that even though CM hopes that Kanwar Yatra is held with all Covid-19 protocols and norms, that too It is the moral responsibility of worshipers to see that their actions should not, in any way, increase the possibility of triggering the third wave of pandemic.
“Therefore, it is recommended that the puan (prayer) of the god Shiva must be done by making Shivlinga Parthiv in their homes or if all worshipers decide to visit the neighboring Siwa Temple, they must follow all the protocols and follow all protocols and follow all protocols and Safety norms “Giri said.
He further said that the health and life of the community are equally important to the practice and religious tradition, so the best choice is like the previous year, we should not issue Yatra this year too.
Approved the President of ABAP, the protective head of Juna Akhara, Mahant Giri said, “Akhara Parishad has made the right decision because during Kanwar Yatra, religious sentiment is strong enough and worshipers often forget to keep a safe distance between themselves and as.
The crowd and group Such worshipers can increase the risk of the spread of the virus and do not need to invite the third wave.
“” Instead, pray at home and begged the god of Shiva because keeping the country safe from the pandemic is the need for hours, “he added.
