Aarti in Baba Balak Nath Temple

Baba Balak Nath Temple is one of the spiritual temples situated in the extreme interiors of the quiet hills of Himachal Pradesh. Apart from the rituals conducted by the temple, what attracts thousands of tourists every year, is the Baba Balak Nath Ji Ki Aarti-a spectacular scene that one cannot afford to miss. Also known as Aarti, the light and sound bath of worship is offered at the commencement and end of every day, making it an intriguing spectacle for all.

The Aarti Baba Balak Nath Ji commences with collective chanting, arranged in beats, incense scent permeating the air, and illuminated diyas or oil lamps. The attendees join the valleys filled with lamenting men‘s howling beautiful voices, calling out to one wish’s blessings. The morning aarti is at 5:00 AM, and the evening one is at 7:00 PM. Each session takes about 30 to 40 minutes and brings peace and a sense of spirituality.

These include the Mangal Aarti at dawn, which invokes the blessings for the day, and the Sandhya Aarti at dusk, expressing gratitude. Typically, these ceremonies are accompanied by traditional musical instruments like bells and cymbals, thus making the experience more uplifting and creating resonance within the hearts of devotees.

For tourists, Himachal Pradesh Tourism will be unavoidable because of the well-preserved rich culture and the wonderful atmosphere present in the region. Most of the Kasauli Tour Packages also include a tour of the Baba Balak Nath Temple making it well balanced with the natural beauty. Participation in the Baba Balak Nath Ji Ki Aarti is surely very much like undertaking a holy pilgrimage in a way that is refreshing and reawakening the spirit and the individual’s relationship with the god.
