LORD MANJUNATH OF DHARMASTHALA

DHARMASTHALA AND ITS UNIQUENESS

The wrod `Dharmasthala' has such a rich meaning that it at once - exhilirates the religious minded man at its very mention by opening a vista of colourful history of the bygone past days of a land, soaked in Dharma - righteousness. It connotes a place where Dharma hovers over eternally, and is abiding in every grain of its soil. As such, if adharma - injustice in any of its manifestations like speech or action tries to make a dent into it, it gets pulverised sooner or than its appearance. Dharma and only Dharma in its prestine purity and unadulterated form exists there, and Dharma Devata taking her seat rules through her deputy, who administers justice purely on the merits of the cases referred to regardless of their kinship with caste, creed, religion, region, language, and other sinister forces existing only to tearing mankind into an infinite number of fragments. It is here Dharma is enthroned on Dharma pitha for the benefit of those desiring to abide by its bidding to enjoying bliss.
