Tapt Kund Badrinath Dham | तप्तकुंड बद्रीनाथ | Badrinath Uttarakhand

बद्रीनाथ मंदिर के पास में ही तप्तकुंड जिसका पानी हमेशा गर्म रहता है, ये किसी चमत्कार से कम नही है ।
जहां एक तरफ अलंखनंदा नदी का इतना ठंडा जल और एक तरफ तप्तकुंड का गर्म पानी, इसे आप कुदरत की देन कहिये या बाबा बद्रीनाथ जी की कृपा,
ये हकिकत है ।
लोग इस तप्तकुंड में स्नान करके ही बाबा बद्रीनाथ जी का दर्शन करते है ।

Tapt kund - Himalayan hot water sulphur spring at Badrinath

Devotees who visit Badrinath temple often bathe in the Tapt Kund.

Tapt Kund, a hot sulfur springs just below the temple, are considered to be medicinal; many pilgrims consider it a requirement to bathe in the springs before visiting the temple.

Badrinath(3,415 metres) is located in the Garhwal hills, on the banks of Alaknanda River.It is a holy town for Hindus in chamoli district of Uttarakhand. It is the most important religious sites among the Chardham. Dwarka, Jagannath Puri, and Rameshwaram are the other three religious sites among the Chardham. The town got its name from the holy temple of Badrinath. Badrinath is situated 301km north of Rishikesh. It is situated in the background of Nilkantha Peak (6560 metres) and between the Nar and Narayana mountain range.

According to a legend, Adi Shankara found a image of Lord Badrinarayan made of black stone (Saligram) in Alaknanda river. He initially kept it in a cave near Tapt kund or hot spring which was later shifted by king of Garhwal to the present temple in 16th century. The hot spring still exists near this temple and taking bath in it keeps a very important religious significance. It is a place sacred to Vishnu, particularly in Vishnu's dual form of Nara-Narayana. Its reference is also given in Hindu Scriptures. This place is full of Bael fruit i.e, Badri or 'Ber' in hindi. According to a another legend Vishnu meditated here for couple of hundered years. Godess Lakshmi gave shelter to him for all those years while he was doing meditation. She later turned into a Badri herself and her Lord was thus known as Badrinath. Another legend is when Godess Ganga was about to descend on earth for the welfare of humanity, it was split into two parts, with Alaknanda one of them so that the mother earth could withstand her force.
