TRYAMBAKESHVAR - TRYAMBAK |
|
|
| For a pilgrim
who is a stranger, the services of the kshetropadhyayas are quite useful. They entertain
guests and help them -in the performance of the various religious rites. Each kshetrop-
adhyayas has a record in his family that has the names of his former guests and if by
chance, one’s ancestors happen to have visited the kshetra and stayed with a certain
family, that family alone would accept the person as a guest. A large number of
dharmashalas are available, some of which rent out utensils also. But during festival
seasons they are apt to be crowded. There are dharmashalas built castewise available for
persons belonging to particular communities only. Gene rally these managements do not
allow a pilgrim to stay at these rest-houses for more than three days. Now a single day
trip can be made to and from Tryambakeshvar from Nasik because of the regular transport
available. Nasik itself is a well known holy place and has various establishments like
rest houses and guest houses and lodges that take good care of the outsiders. A dip in the
Kushavarta, the darshan of Tryambakeshvar and of Gangadwara could be finished within a
single day; but if a pilgrim is keen on performing the various prescribed vidhis and
yatras he would find it convenient to halt at Tryambak itself. |
