As people go to Mata Vaishno Devi and until you don't go to Bhairabnath then your pilgrimage won't be complete, we go to Kedarnath and come here to Pashupatinath and Doleshwor Mahadev so that our pilgrimage is complete," a Sadhu from India who came to Pashupatinath temple for Shivaratri told .The world heritage site these days is flooded with Sadhus from India and other parts of the world as Pashupatinath temple is one of the 'Shakti Piths'.
