Panch Kedar Yatra Backstory – After the Mahabharata war, the Pandavas were burdened with the sin of fratricide. To seek absolution, they decided to obtain Lord Shiva’s blessings. However, Shiva, displeased with them, chose to hide in the Kedarkhand region. 
When the Pandavas reached Kedarkhand, they could not find Shiva. Suspecting Shiva to be among the animals, Bheem assumed a gigantic form, placing his legs across two cliffs and allowing animals to pass underneath. Frightened, all animals passed except one-Shiva, disguised as a bull, tried to escape in the opposite direction.
Realizing the truth, Bheem grabbed the bull’s hump, but Shiva started disappearing into the ground.
Moved by the Pandavas’ devotion, Shiva blessed them and freed them from their sins.
His body parts appeared at five locations:
- Hump at Kedarnath
- Navel at Madhyamaheshwar
- Arms at Tungnath
- Face at Rudranath
- Jata (locks of hair) at Kalpeshwar
Since then this has become a Holy Pilgrimage of Panch Kedar Yatra.
