kUrukeshtra

kUrukeshtra

 Kurukshetra is well known for its world famous Mahabharata War. Hence it is a religious and historical place. It is around 130 km. from Delhi. Owing to religious city it has almost 100 small and big temples. A notble characteristic of this city is that it has around 60 Dharamshala and all Dharamshalas has its own identity. Each Dharamshala belong to a specific caste but every Dharamshala is open for all castes or category. Food & shelter is very cheap here. Kurukshetra has its own natural beauty. It has a very spacious and attractive University. Local people are very honest as compare to other places. In terms of development it is passing through the age of transition and new sectors are under construction. Vast areas of sectors are open and some sectors are without any construction, wide roads are under construction. Local language of kurukshetra has its own way of speaking. People speak Hindi but their style is quite different. What‘s the cause behind this change? I think that the change in speaking style is due to physical factors.  Harayanvi language is very rough and loud. Whereas  this is also a Harayana language(dialect) but very respectful language. Kurukshetra has a large numbers of temples therefore there is much disturbance during morning hours , loudspeakers and sounds of temple’s bells break the calmness of the morning. I used to go  ancient Human temple where I read Hauman Chalisa and I felt a different kind of calmness & I also relies that everybody should go temple for the purification of their mind and heart. In the morning around 5:30 am I found a boy studying on the stairs of Braham Sarover. I was very impressed to see his devotion towards his study. I think he was learning mantra by heart.
     Baharam Sarover is the main feature of Kurukshetra. I is divided into two parts. It is very large and deep around 15 to 20 feet. This Sarovar is a sanctum and religious spot. Mahadev temple is situated inside the Sarovar where we can go through a small bridge. Every evening Shiv Ling is decorated with flowers’s Rangoli. Priest makes everyday a different design, that’s look very beautiful and charming . Bharam Savovar is surrounded by a different type of boundary under this boundary many Shadhu , saints and Beggars live or stay for some days. Sarovar is the home of different types of fishes where they swim without any fear . Water of this sarover is so clear that we can see easily swimming fishes. In the other side of Sarover many big and famous temples are situated. Such as Dropadi ka Kuwan. It is said that during the Solar Eclipse the water of this Well (Kuwan) turn into white water.
