KURUKSHETRA
The land of  Dharma

It is this Dharmabhoomi that filled many a glittering chapter of sacred scriptures, like the Rigveda, Upanishads, Puranas, Bhagavadgita and Mahabharatha. From time immemorial it has been the sangrama ranga, where historic battles were fought in defense of Dharma that changed the course of history, and gave a new turn to the lives of teeming millions inhabiting this divya kshetra. Besides Pouranic glory, historical eminence too is emanating from every inch of this Punya bhoomi.

Hence for the Sanatanist, it's his life breath; theist, his soul; religionist, his mind; moralist, a light house; codifier, a treasure trove; seeker, the gateway to heaven; spiritual bankrupt, a font; mumuksha, a crazy pilgrim centre, Ideologist, a research lab; and cultured man, a temple. Its very mention exhilarates the spiritualist; energizes the lily-livered; rejuvenates, the crest fallen; ignites the virtuous; Armour's the asthikas; and consoles the oppressed.

Every devotee's abode reverberates with its glory in the predawn hour during the recitation of Gita beginning with Dharmakshetra - Kurukshetra, when his heroic heart resounds .with 'the zooming arrows and clanking of clubs; and awakens his ferule mind to the thoughts of eternal messages preached, and acted, perpetual peace sought and got by manavothamas aided and abetted by Purushothama and His retinue.
