Hello Friends, how are you? Wishing you all happy and prosperous life ahead.
Kainchi is a beautiful secluded mountain ashram located in the Kumoan Hills in Uttarakand. 15 June 2025 is the 60th inauguration day of Baba Neem Karoli Asharam, This day marks the anniversary of the establishment of the ashram by Neem Karoli Baba in 1964, it's also in and Neem Karoli Baba. On this day devotees from all over the world comes here to show their gratitude to Baba.
Kaichi Dham, located in Nainital District of Uttarakhand, India. It is was very special day of the baba Devotees, it is heavily crowded on this day. As Preparations for the event often begin well in advance, as there numerous communal Feast(Bhandara) and distribution of prasand alk started few days before.
With Baba Blessings, this year i got the opportunity(invitation) to visit the Such auspicious place to seek the blessings from the Baba. It was unplanned one day trip to Kainchi Dham, the distance from my hometown is around 285 Km which takes approximately 5-6 hours, i started the journey around 5 o'clock in the morning, reached there 10 o'clock. The weather was pleasant, cloudy and raining. I feel sleepy in the journey whether i go by tain or Car😜
It is extremely hot in my area but as soon as we moved a further, we got amazing rain experience.
House of Hive, Isn't it our House, i think we are owner of this property, we are real hivers 😜😂
Sweet corns are my favourite, i can eat it anytime. Pleasant weather and Geilled Corns is amazing Combination. The Corns here are different. Whenever I go to the hill station, having corns is my favourite choice, it is more sweet in taste and juicy, as these types of corns are not available in my hometown. I also took five raw corn for home because my family members also like it very much. Even i must say the cost of the Corns are high(rs 50 or $0.58), as tourist enjoy it.
There is a lot of crowd on this day, so to manage the crowd the government has set up its a shuttle system to manage the influx of devotees. this services was operated in the various parking area of the Nainital, where you have to dropped your personal car in the parking area, go by Taxi, As strictly no Cars are allowed to move ahead of parking area. The cost of this service is rs 50 or $0.58. This is the only way to control the traffic, so that Devotees should not face any kind of problem.
The shuttle service will drop you off before at the 4 km of the temple from there you have go by walking. i really like walking when the weather is pleasant. As per the hindu believe if you want to find God, you will have to endure hardships. It is part of journey, so i always enjoy it.
In the way, there was numerous community feast was happening where water, cold drink, coffee, puri-sabji, Kadhi chawal, everything was available, So probably devotees were not facing any kind of problem.
One thing that I felt bad about was the wastage of food. People were taking free food and wasting it like this.
As per the believes, whoever comes to baba's Ashram, never goes empty handed, Baba fulfills your desires and wish soon, remove all the obstacle from your Life.

So photography was strictly prohibited 🚫
