Amarnath Yatra is considered to be difficult as well as very virtuous. Shivling is formed naturally in the cave of Amarnath, which is popular by the name of Baba Barfani. In such a situation, soon Shiva devotees will be able to get the privilege of seeing Baba Barfani. Let us know when the Amarnath Yatra is going to start in the year 2025 (Amarnath Yatra 2025 Date).

When will the journey begin

Every year the date of Amarnath Yatra is announced by the meeting of Amarnath Shrine Board. In such a situation, the holy journey of Shri Amarnath (Amarnath Yatra Start Date) is going to start from 3 July in the year 2025. Also, this pilgrimage will conclude on 09 August 2025. The registration process has started from March 15. This time this pilgrimage is going to last for 37 days.

Importance of Amarnath Yatra

It is mentioned in Hindu scriptures that Lord Shiva narrated the Amar Katha to Goddess Parvati in this holy cave. According to religious beliefs, the devotee who visits Amarnath with a true heart and has darshan of Baba Barfani, all his sins are destroyed and finally he attains salvation. It is also said that by visiting this pilgrimage site, a person gets as much virtue as visiting 23 pilgrimage sites. The height of the self-manifested Shivalinga of Amarnath keeps increasing and decreasing depending on the phases of the moon.

The journey to Amarnath starts from Ashadh Purnima, which continues throughout the month of Sawan and concludes on the day of Shravan Purnima i.e. Raksha Bandhan. It is believed that Lord Shiva first came to this cave on the day of Shravan Purnima, therefore, visiting this cave on this day is considered to be of special importance. This is the reason why Chhari Mubarak is installed near the Shivling in the cave on the day of Shravan Purnima i.e. Raksha Bandhan.

What is "Stick Happy"

"Chhadi Mubarak" is actually a religious tradition of the Amarnath Yatra, which is considered very important. During this, the sacred mace or stick related to Lord Shiva is taken to the Amarnath cave, which also symbolizes the end of the yatra.
