Jaipur Pushkar Same Day Tour
Pushkar is a pilgrimage town located in the state of Rajasthan, India. It is known for its Brahma Temple, lake, ghats, and market. Pushkar is located 142 kilometers away from Jaipur.
Pushkar is one of the five dhams (sacred pilgrimage sites) visited by devout Hindus. The term ‘Pushkar’ refers to a lotus flower, which is believed to be the seat of Brahma, one of the three gods of the Hindu holy trinity, considered the creator of the universe. According to legends, Brahma had to destroy his enemies after his offspring was brutally murdered by a demon named Vajra Nabha. Brahma used his magical lotus flower as a lethal weapon to defeat the demon. As he expired due to the blow, his blood started flowing out from his body, forming three lakes, one being Pushkar, where a lotus petal got planted and created a beautiful lake. Brahma is also said to have offered sacrifices in this lake during Kartik Purnima (full moon day of Kartik month).
Although Brahma is seen as the creator of the world, Pushkar is the only temple dedicated to this significant god in the entire world. The temple is also referred to as Adi Teerth or Teertharaj, which means ancient holy place and the most sacred of all holy places respectively. Few temples exist in honour of this god since his impact on everyday life is not thought of as much as that of other gods like Vishnu (the preserver), Shiva (the destroyer), and Ganesh (remover of obstacles). As a creator, once something has been created, it already exists; however, other gods have to be pleased so their wishes come true.
