Vyasa Gufa - Badrinath

Badrinath, has an average elevation of 3,415 metres (11,204 feet). It is in the Garhwal hills, on the banks of the Alaknanda River. The town lies between the Nar and Narayana mountain ranges and in the shadow ofNilkantha peak.
In Badrinath we have the Vyasa Gufa - a cave where in Srila VyasaDeva compiled the great literature Srimad Bhagavatam on order of his Spiritual Master Sri Narada Muni.

A close observation on the stones of the cave shows that they are in the form of piled up books  - found just here.
We had been there during the last week of may with devotees from Chowpatty Bombay. We prayed to Lord Vyasadeva to give us the strength and intelligence to understand and imbibe the teachings of the great amala purana.
