Bageshwar Dham Sarkar
How can I best serve my parents through a pilgrimage?
Take parents to the Char Dham yourself
If your parents are alive, take them on the Char Dham pilgrimage if you can, and go with them yourself, never sending a servant. You may not be free of their debt, but your own service may please them and they may bless you.
Those of you whose parents are alive, if possible take them to the four Dhams and go along with them. Do not send some servant.
