Devotional & adventurous trip to Shree Tungareshwar Mahadev Temple and Balyogi Shree Sadanand Maharaj Ashram.

On Saturday, we had plan to visit Shree Tungareshwar Mahadev temple which is located at hills near Vasai Railway station. Our team members were Vishwamber mama, Satyawan dada, Santosh, Sachin, Vihang, Prakash, Ravi, Kanchan didi, Roshan & me. Our plan was going by train but suddenly in the morning we decided to go by car since it will be convenient while coming back.

It was decided to meet by morning 7.00hrs at Andheri but as usual our Lazy gang failed to achieve target given by our organizer vishwamber mama and finally we commence our journey at 9.00hrs. We reached at around 11 hrs at Shree Bappa Sitaram’s ashram which is located at the entrance of Tungareshwar temple route. This was end of our car journey and further we had to walk till temples because of river crossing and bad road condition.

We took eatables along with us and started our further journey towards temple but it was surprising for me and Rosha that why this much eatables were taken to go only up to temple i.e. approx. 1km, but my bro Satya told me that after Tungareshwar darshan we are going to Balyogi Shree Sadanand Maharaj’s Ashram which at 8 Km trekking point. For five minutes I was confused what to do…

We went up to Shree Tungareshwar temple and had pleasant darshan of Shree Mahadev (Lord Shiva) by which our mind got refresh again to prepare our mind set to climb further 8 Km. We had snaks and commenced our further journey in sprinkling rain.

During trekking we were enjoying natural views of Tungareshwar’s reserve forest, we had taken lovely snaps of top of Vasai. As it was raining we were finding difficulty for climbing, there was no milestone post to know our balance distance to reach our destination point. Since I and Rosha were new to this path we were asking to other peoples that how much time will take to reach up to Ashram. We asked “Ashram aur kitana dur hai? Ashram ajun kiti lamb aahe?“ to almost all peoples coming towards down side. Everyone given different answer like 2 and half Hrs, 2Hrs, 15Min, Half Hr etc. we commenced our journey at 14 Hrs and reached at around 17Hrs almost took 3Hrs. 

There was great satisfaction of reaching Ashram and getting Darshan of Balyogi Shree Sadanand Maharaj.

We offered Bhajan Pushp to Shree Nityanad Maharaj & His Shishya Balyogi shree Sadanad Maharaj and with sweet memories stepped down towards home…

!! Om Naham Shivay. !!
