Panch Kedar: A Journey Through Karma, Humility, and Redemption

Introduction Hinduism has always held karma at the heart of its spiritual philosophy, the divine law of cause and effect that governs both the universe and the soul’s journey. Among its many sacred stories, few illustrate this law more profoundly than the legend of the Panch Kedar temples in the Garhwal Himalayas. These five temples, built by the Pandavas, are more than architectural wonders. They are symbols of accountability, humility, and the long road to redemption, even for the greatest of heroes.  After the catastrophic war of Kurukshetra, the Pandavas stood victorious, yet deeply burdened. Though they had fought for dharma, they could not escape the sin of killing their own blood. Haunted by this karmic weight, they sought forgiveness, not from people, but from the divine. Lord Krishna advised them to seek out Lord Shiva, the destroyer of ego and purifier of sin.  But Lord Shiva, angered by the violence of the war, chose not to grant them instant forgiveness.

Stop criticism today !!!

Abraham Lincoln, Confucious, Benjamin Franklin
Let us first know what famous people said about criticism:
Abraham Lincoln: “Don’t criticize them; they are just what we would be under similar circumstances”.
Confucious: " Don't complain about the snow on the roof of the neighbors if your door is unclean".
Benjamin Franklin: " Any fool can criticize, condemn and complain - and most fools do".
Lets us read a story of Francis Crowley or popularly known as "Two-Gun" Crowley. He was a serial murderer of New York and he also robbed a New Rochelle Bank. On the day he was encountered by New York Police he was enjoying at his girlfriend's home. 300 policemen surrounded the building and bullet started flowing from both sides but when Crowley identified that his bullets are finishing, he had written a letter. In that letter, he had written that " Yes he knows that he is a killer, but he has a kind heart under his coat, a heart that does no harm". Yes, you read it correctly he identified his heart as a kind one. He got a death sentence by "Electric chair". This thinking is not only of a Two Gun Crowley but every criminal used to give himself a reason why he is doing bad things. What do you think about normal persons? Each and every person used to give himself why he is doing good or bad things. In normal day to day life we used to scold people of their mistakes and bad behavior but never understand why they are doing those things. On this Abraham Lincoln quoted “Don’t criticize them; they are just what we would be under similar circumstances”.
Abraham Lincoln Quotes
We all know about Abraham Lincoln, how he became President of the United States from being a cobbler's son. We all know about his humble nature but many of us do not know that he used to criticize many people during his youthful years. He often distributes several pages about the mistakes of fellow lawyers and used to laugh on them. Once he had done too much criticism of James Shields, so much that Mr. Shields asked him for a duel where the winner will take both life and pride of the opponent. On the day of Duel, Lincoln selected the largest cavalry broadswords to kill James shields. But the duel never happened but this event had given a great lesson to Lincoln and he never criticized anyone else in his life. He started understanding the other person's point of view. From this story, we must learn that criticism and rebukes generally result in futility.

Do you also think that another person must improve, become wise and do not argue with you? Then you must think again and start working on improving yourself because that will be more beneficial for you and for others. Instead of condemning them, let's try to praise others and understand them better.
