Ganga’s Fury : A Himalayan 'Tsunami':

Ganga, symbolically represented on the head of the Lord :Mother Ganga, with a jet of water springing from her mouth and falling on the ground, signifies that the Lord destroys sin, removes ignorance, and donates knowledge, purity and peace on the devotees. “

flash floods in Uttarkhand and Himachal Pradesh:

Thousands have perished in flash floods and landslides in Uttarakhand. The holy town of Kedarnath was completely flattened. However, much less than shaking people's faith, the massive tragedy has reinforced their belief in the divine.

For believers, the fact that Kedarnath shrine was left untouched by the deluge and falling rocks presents ample proof of the powers of the divine.

Also, the Shivlinga had not gone under the sludge and remained crowned by offerings of belpatra.
