  • Mountain, Water, Rock
    1 In Pursuit of Shiva “This place is not meant for people.” Men who lived and worked in Kedarnath would often express this sentiment to me. I would remember these words at odd moments when, during my time in Kedarnath, the remoteness of the place would suddenly strike me. These moments often happened when I was waiting in line to enter the temple. In the years just before the floods, it was sometimes neces- sary in the morning to wait for several hours in line for the chance to enter the temple and come face to face with the self-manifest rock form of Shiva around which the temple had somehow been built out of massive stone blocks high up in the Himalaya. This time spent waiting in line was many things: a chance to talk to yatris, the opportunity to observe the spectacle of pilgrimage tourism from a ringside seat, an embodied push for me and my cold feet to think about why I had come to this place and what I was trying to do. Once while in line I remember looking into one of the shops that surrounded the temple on three sides and seeing that a film was playing on a small television. On the screen, hanging above a counter full of metal trays containing materials (Hindi: prasad) that would be used in ritual worship (Hindi: puja) in the temple, next to a few benches where one could sit and take chai and biscuits, I saw the Pandava princes and their wife Draupadi making their way up into the Himalaya, struggling along on their famous ascent to heaven.

Religious and traditional beliefs, cultural mores, and practices play a crucial role in the conservation of environment and biodiversity. The present paper describes a case study of two sacred groves in Western Himalaya. Sacred groves (SGs) are patches of land that are communally protected with religious zeal. A preliminary survey was conducted in these SGs to study their role in biodiversity conservation. The data collected included the general information regarding the SGs and the associated deity, nearest human habitation, access to them, and their floral and faunal diversity. Ethnomedicinal property of plants was collected from the indigenous communities. Many taboos are associated with both the SGs, which help in managing resources well through ritual representation.

  • When the Floods Came
    5 When the Floods Came Water, rock, and mud descended on Kedarnath twice, first in the evening of June 16, 2013, and then in the morning around seven on June 17, 2013. Those hours are in fundamental ways beyond discursive reach. But we can try to gather fragments, as have dozens of video documentaries, hundreds of journalist accounts, and thousands of Facebook posts. In a fragmentary way, it is possible to say that Kedarnath remained, during and after the flooding, a place that resisted human control and a place marked by a relatively high level of shared experience across diverse social, economic, and cultural subjectivities. It remained a zone of transi- tion to the beyond-human, a vanishing point relative to human frameworks of understanding and control. It remained a place characterized by the enmeshing of the divine and the natural. The floods came as a surprise and a rupture, but also, given their Himalayan location, they were not a surprise and they were not a rupture. I embark on the description of this event with the concept of “border situation” in mind as it is discussed by anthropologist Michael Jackson in his work The Palm at the End of the Mind. Jackson (2009, xii), as part of a broader engagement with the question of the putative cultural universality of something called “religious experience,” found himself focusing on “critical situations in life where we come up against the limits of language, the limits of our strength, the limits of our knowledge, yet are sometimes thrown open to new ways of understanding our being-in-the-world, news ways of connecting with others.” He was drawn to the term situation and its use in compounds like limit situation (from Karl Jaspers) and frontier situation (from Theodor Adorno) because the concept of situation is an “existential” concept that engages experiences of being-in-the-world in a way 145 146 When the Floods Came that does not reduce those experiences to either “political economy” or “religious belief or doctrine” (Jackson 2009, xii).

Changing rainfall pattern in the previous some years has made heavy localized precipitation all the more common in Uttarakhand and the same is a cause of concern for the state government, meteorologists and other researchers. These incidences cause enormous loss of human lives, property, infrastructures and natural resources. Moreover rainfall in the study area is highly variable even over short distances. Dissected topography and tectonically active nature of the area further promote mass movement and slope instability. Increased indiscriminate anthropogenic intervention along the river banks, on glacial sediments, thick colluviums zones and river borne materials on moderate to steep slope, has often resulted in devastation in the area. The study highlights causes of slope instability together with the geomorphic changes and suggestions for future developmental initiatives within the district. Keywords: Mandakini valley; Cloudburst; Landslide; Future plan; monsoon during June to September. Heavy rains and associated deluge Kedarnath; Uttarakhand Himalaya on 16/17 June 2013 in the catchments of the Mandakini river and its tributaries, caused immense loss of life, property and infrastructures in Introduction the area.

  • Mountain, Water, Rock
    2 Lord of Kedar “Not far from Gaurikund, in between mountain peaks in the Mandakini val- ley, lies the Shri Kedarnath temple that is known as Kailasa, the original, eternal dwelling place of Bhagwan Shankar-Ji. There is nolinga or image [Hindi: murti] 1 here, there is only a high place [Hindi: sthan] in a three-sided shape that is known as the back side of Shiva-Ji’s buffalo.” This excerpt from a modern pilgrim’s guide points to the difficulty of expressing in precise language the exact textures and details of Shiva’s form and presence in Kedarnath. Another example comes from the interview with Kedarnath tirth purohit Tiwari-Ji mentioned in the previous chapter. He said about the shape of the linga: “It is the formless shape of God [Hindi: Bhagwan]. It was here from before, it is as if it comes from the ground, it is the real linga. And [it is formless] so that people will not leave assuming 2 that the linga has a particular form. Ghee is also important here. They [the visitors] are . laying on their hands [anointing the linga with ghee].” A third ex- ample arose in conversation with an elderly Kedarnath valley man who had spent numerous seasons in Kedarnath. He expressed the place/practice relationship in this way: Inside the temple there is a mountain. It is the Himalaya mountain inside the temple. And the God [Hindi: Bhagwan] there means the mountain. Whatever divine power [Hindi: qudrat] is there, that qudrat takes the form of God. But if you say to someone, “Worship a mountain,” he won’t do it, will he? “Worship the mountain,” brother, no one will do it.
