Episode 5: "HANUMANDHARA: THE ABODE OF LORD HANUMAN"

In this show of our documentary travelogue onSteemit, "Bharat Darshan: exploring the unexplored", Sukhnidhey Films (www.sukhnidhey.com) takes you to explore the very ancient caves of Hanumandhara in Madhya Pradesh, India, which despite association with the great epic, the Ramayana, and mentions in several ancient texts, have long remained forgotten and unknown to the general masses.

The caves have the most exquisite natural rock idol of Lord Hanuman and a perenial stream of water which falls on the Lord's left half and tail. We first take you to the legendary town of Chitrakoot, which has a number of explicit mentions in the Ramayana as the place where Lord Rama, Goddess Sita and Lakshmana spent quite a period of time during their exile.

Before departing from planet Earth, Lord Rama also instructed Lord Hanuman to reside permanently in Hanumandhara, Hanuman being a "Chiranjeevi", or ever living.

So, hold your breath, tighten your seat belts and come along with us as we take you to this divine place, gather and document historical evidences on this enchanting journey, studying the architectural features and critically examining the events as described in the ancient Indian texts, and as we see them first hand.

EVERY THURSDAY AT 12 pm EST ON STEEMIT!
