Kharod - the village of Khara-Dushana
  • Hi Friends,
    Chhattisgarh has many towns which are related to the Ramayana period as per
    local traditions. Kharod is one of them which is assumed to be the place
    where Khara and Dushana, two brother of Ravana, lives. The antiquity of the
    existing monuments can be traced since the period of the Panduvamshi kings,
    thats seventh century CE onwards. There are two brick temples which are
    designed on similar style as that of the famous Lakshmana temple at Sirpur.

    My next post, in line with Ramayana placed in Chhattisgarh, would be on
    Sheorinarayan, the so called hermitage of Shavari of the Ramayana fame.
  • Is there anything on "Chitrakoot"?

  • I did not get what exactly u mean, Chitrakoot is a well known pilgrimage
    place in Uttar Pradesh state. Do you mean some connection between
    Khara-Dushana and Chitrakoot?

Howdy, Stranger!
