[edit] Girnar
I've moved this incomprehensible bit of text here, in case someone else can make sense of it: Giranr mountain is also important as most of all prominent and famous saints who had affected lifes of people of India and the world. People such as Swami Gunatitanad from the Swaminarayan Sampraday, Swani Vivekanand, Shri Nathu Ram Sharma of Bilkha who was a great Yogi, Shri Goraksh Nath the ever present yogi among others have achieved their knowledge here in Girnar. In its caves are residents of naga sanyasis; also foreigners came here to visit the fair organised at Maha shivratri nearly falling in January or February. Approximately ten to twelve of the lakh public visit every fair every year, and it is a joy of life to see the fair in Girnar. It is also famous for "parikrmma" (people walking around all mountains). It is held after eleven days of diwali known as "DEV UTHI AGIYARAS". Almost two to three lacs peoples used to take part in this fair ceremony.
It is in Gujarat, related to both Hindus and Jains. BuddingJournalist 08:49, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
