Tour to Harishchandragad in Maharashtra

The fort is quite old. The remains of a Microlithic man were discovered here. There are numerous references to Harishchandragad in ancient works such as the Matsya Purana, Agni Purana, and Skanda Purana.

Its history begins in the sixth century, during the reign of the Kalachuri dynasty. During this time, the fort was constructed. Several caves could have been carved in the 11th century.

There are statues of King Vishnu in these caves. Despite the names Tamarat and Rohidas, the cliffs have nothing to do with Ayodhya. Changdev (author of the epic Tatvasaar) meditated here frequently in the 14th century.

Most notable places you are interested in

Saptatirtha Pushkarni :-

To the east of the temple is "Saptatirtha," a well-constructed lake. There are temple-like structures on its bank with statues of King Vishnu.

These statues have recently been transformed into caves near the Harishchandreshwar temple.

Many pedestrians face the arduous pain of the place these days, as they dump plastic waste and other items into the lake. Swimming is also an option.

(However, in the summer, the water is so cold that you almost feel like you're standing in the refrigerator compartment.)

Kedareshwar Cave:-

A local legend says that when the fourth pillar breaks, the earth will end.

A large cave to the right of the Harishchandreshwar temple in Kedareshwar contains a large Shiva Linga that is completely surrounded by water. The water reaches the waist and rises 15 feet [5 m] above the ground.

The water is extremely cold, making access to Shiva Linga difficult. The cave contains sculptures. Getting to the cave during the rainy season is impossible because a large stream flows across the road. This is the Mangalganga River's headwaters.

There is a large rock above Shiva Linga. To support the cave, four pillars were built around Shiva Linga.

Another intriguing feature of this area is that water enters the temple every day through four walls.

And because the water is so cold, it's difficult to get back inside. Water flows continuously throughout the year. During the rainy season, the water level in the cave is nearly at its maximum.

Kokankada:-

several times. From this point, a round rainbow (Broken spectre phenomenon) can be seen on occasion.

It is only visible when there is a slight fog in the valley and the sun is behind the person viewing it.

A vertical cloud mass is a phenomenon that can be seen in this area, in which clouds near a cliff enter a hole that falls below and are thrown into the sky at a distance of more than 15 metres, creating the image of a wall rising straight at the edge of the cliff without entering the earth's surface.

If you visit in April or May, throw your panama hat on the cliff and enjoy a hike up and back to the plains.

The height of the Tamarati:-

Tamaranchi is another name for Tamaranchi. This is the castle's highest point (1429 meters). Leopards have been spotted in the forest above the summit. We can see the entire Naneghat range and the castles near Murbad from here.

We can see forts as far south as Siddhagad near Bhimashankar and the twin mountains of Napta, Ghodishep (865 metres), Ajoba (1375 metres), and Kulang fort (1471 metres) in the north near Kasara district from Tamarati.

Caves in Harishchandragad:-

The caves are scattered throughout the castle. Many of these are habitable and are located beneath the upper level of the Tamarati.

Some are near the temple, others near the castle, and still others deep in the woods. The natural cave is located deep on the northwest side of the castle, to the right of Kokan Kada.

Many other caves have gone missing, according to reports.

Nageshwar Temple near Khireshwar

This is a beautiful ancient architecture with various works of art on display. Some carved objects can be found on the temple's roof.

The most impressive inscription is a 1.5-meter-long statue of King Vishnu in the dormitory, known as "Sheshshayi Vishnu" in Marathi.

It is extremely rare and thus extremely valuable. There are numerous legends surrounding this image. Near the temple, there are caves.

Ganapati, Harishchandreshwar Temple:-

This temple is an excellent example of ancient Indian carving. It stands 16 metres tall from the ground.

A number of ancient caves and water tanks are located near this temple. The Mangal Ganga River is said to have originated in one of the temple's tanks.

The temple's surface is similar to temple construction in northern India. The same temple can be found in Buddha-Gaya.

Many cemeteries can be seen here, with the general construction visible. These are made of carefully placed stones that are finished on top of one another. Near the temple, there are three large caves. Drinking water is obtained from wells near the temple.

Kashitirtha, another nearby temple, is also worth a visit. This temple's allure is enhanced by the fact that it is engraved on a single large rock.

Doors are available on both sides. Face sculptures flank the main entrance. This is the expression of the temple guards. An inscription by Devsnagsri about Saint Changdev can be found to the left of the door.

Harishchandragad lies at the confluence of the Thane, Pune, and Ahmednagar regions.

This is the place where Jatayu's wounded was found by King Rama on the outskirts of the village of Taked.

While Jatayu was injured and laying on the ground when King Rama came, King Rama observed the ultimate result and determined that Jatayu should obtain a moksha.

Lord Rama hit an arrow on the ground to summon all seven sacred rivers, called the teertha.

The water of the six rivers has come, the water of one river has failed to obey the call of King Ramah. Since Lord Rama himself was a man of Lord Vishnu, He forced the Gaya teertha to come to that place.

Eventually, Jatayu was given water from seven rivers and found a moksha. Today, six river water is visible in one lake, and the seventh is just a few yards away. It meets the remaining six waters in an invisible way.

Ellora Caves

The caves of Ellora are twenty-eight kilometers (18 miles) from Aurangabad. The road passes through the Daultabad fort. 

The Ellora Cave Temples are the product of three religious denominations — Buddhism, Brahmanism, and Jainism, which contain intricate carvings of gods and goddesses and magnificent monuments to three major independent religions.

Each program had its own architectural style and Ellora introduced a variety of styles on the side. Carpentry work, too, raises controversial issues. Slope excavation is widespread, from north to south, about two miles [2 km]. 

There are 34 caves in total: 12 Buddhist caves (500-750 AD), 17 Hindu caves (600-870 AD), and 5 Jain villages (800-1000 AD). The caves are reckoned in chronological order, starting with the ancient Buddhist caves in the south and finally.

Buddhist Caves:

Buddhist caves are the first of the Ellora Caves, from 500 to 750 AD. All but cave 10 are viharas, used for study, meditation, community culture, food, and sleep.

The caves are gradually becoming larger and more ornate as they move north, explained by the aristocrats of the growing need to compete with Hinduism in defense. The first Hindu caves in Ellora date from 600 AD, in the middle of the Buddhist period.

Cave 1 is a wild vihara with eight tiny monks that are very small statues. It may have served as a repurchaser for large halls.

Cave 2 is very impressive. The large central room, supported by a 12-square-foot pillar, is filled with statues of Buddhist statues. The entrance to the sanctuary is filled with a muscular iPadmapani, holding a lotus, and the ruined Maitreya, the Buddha of the Future. They both go along with their partners. Inside the temple is a Buddha sitting on a lion's throne.

Caves 3 and 4 have a similar design to Cave 2, but they are in poor condition.

The 5th largest cave in the series, is the viahra, 35.66 meters by 17 meters (117 ft. By 56 ft.), And in addition there are two separate spaces. Twenty-four pillars hold the roof. The interior seems to indicate that it was used as a guest house or as a class of novitiates. There is a common image of the Buddha in the church.

Cave 6 was carved over 600 years ago and is home to two of the most beautiful sculptures in Ellora. On the left is the goddess Tara, who has a powerful but kind speech. His opponent on the right is Mahamayuri, a Buddhist goddess of learning, depicted as a peacock. The diligent student sits at his desk below. Notably, Mahamayuri has a very similar Hindu partner, Saraswati.

Caves No. 7, 8, 9 is not to be seen.

The most beautiful 10th cave dates back to the early 700s and is known as the Carpenter's Cave because of its imitation of a stone pillar on the roof. Finally, a seated Buddha sits on a throne in front of a large stone stamp.

Hindu Caves:

Created during the prosperity and revival of Hinduism, Hindu caves represent a completely different style of creative and creative vision than Buddhist caves. Hindu temples are carved from top to bottom and require several generations of planning and integration to build.

There are 17 Hindu caves in total (numbers 13 to 29), dated between 600 and 870 AD. They live in the center of the cave, gathered around the famous temple of Kailasa.

In contrast with the quiet and modest Buddhists in the ancient caves, the walls of Hindu caves are covered with lively representations of events from Hindu texts. All the caves are dedicated to the god Shiva, but there are also other images of Vishnu and his various births.

The cave dates back to the early 600 days and was transformed into a Buddhist vihara. Its towering walls are adorned with elaborate fences and the entrance to the sanctuary is protected by the river goddess Ganga and Juna. Inside, the alcove shelters fertility goddesses with seven large breasts that hold tiny babies in their lap. To their right appears the feature of the Ganesh women and the beloved goddess of death, Kala and Kali.

Cave 15 was also a former Buddhist cave accepted by the Hindus. The ground floor is particularly unattractive, but the upper floor has a beautiful view of Ellora. On the right is a series of panels depicting the formation of Vishnu or ten avatars, giving the cave its name, Das Avatara.

The right panel of the antechamber shows the rise of Shaivism in the region at the time - Shiva comes out of the ring while his rivals Brahma and Vishnu stand in humility and supplication. The most beautiful statue of this cave is on the left wall of the room: it shows Shiva as Nataraja, Cosmic Dancer.

The most famous Hindu cave (Cave 16) is by no means a cave, but it is a magnificent temple carved in solid rock, very close to the independent temples of that time. It represents Mount Kailash, the abode of Lord Shiva, and is called Kailashnath, Kailash, or Kailasa Temple. At first, it had thick white coat coats to make it look like a snowy mountain.

The Kailash Temple is a magnificent structure, with delightful landscapes and various sculptures. It is believed that it was started by Rashtrakuta's king Krishna I (756-773). Construction was a human endeavor - it involved the removal of 250,000 tons of rock, took 100 years to complete, and covered twice the size of the Parthenon in Athens. Many other Hindu caves stretch the mountain north of Kailash, but only three must-sees: 21, 25, and 29.

Cave 21, Ramesvara, dates to the late 500s and is thought to be the ancient Hindu cave in Ellora. It contains beautiful carvings, including river goddesses, guardians of two doors, and other loving couples surrounding the walls of the porch.

Cave 25 depicts the sun-god Surya driving his chariot early in the morning.

Above this, the trail quickly descends down the gorge, below the waterfall of the year, and then back to the 29th cave, Dhumar Lena. Dating since the late 500s, there is an unusual plan made for the cross. Two lions guarded its three steps. Inside, the walls are covered with large frames.

 To the left of the door, Shiva kills the demon Andhaka, then defeats Ravana's many armed attempts to move him and Parvati to the top of Mount Kailash. Don't miss his lump on the ground to exterminate the demon! On the south side, Shiva plays Parvati by grabbing his arm as he prepares to throw dice in the game.

Jain Caves:

Jain caves, dating to the late 800s and 900s, are 2 km north along the asphalt road. They reflect the diversity of Jain philosophy and culture, including the strong sense of self-sacrifice combined with the elaborate decoration. They are not as big as the others, but they contain detailed works of art.

 Many Jain caves had rich paintings on their roofs, fragments of which are still visible. Most notable of this group is Cave 32, Indra Sabha, a small temple of Kailash. The ground floor is clear but the upper floor has elaborate carvings, including a beautiful lotus flower on the roof. 

Two Tirthankaras monitor the entry of the central temple. To the right is the naked Gomatesvara, who meditates deeply in the forest - so much so that the vineyards grow on his legs and the animals, snakes, and scorpions crawl at his feet.

Ajanta Leni

The Buddhist caves painted by Ajanta Caves, only 59 kilometers from Jalgoan (a railway station in Delhi-Bombay and Allahabad-Bombay main railway line) and from Aurangabad 104 km (from Ellora 100 km).

At the end of the seventh century, Buddhism began to decline in its native land and its shrines were demolished. For a thousand years, sleeping Ajanta was buried on the slopes of the forest in the western mountain forest, until 1819 it was discovered by accident.

A single cluster of rock-shaped rock climbing over a gorge to a height of 76.20 meters (250 ft.) Makes it ideal for a monastery sanctuary. With a space limit, the caves should have been much closer together than Ellora's.

Most of them date back to antiquity, the oldest of pre-Christian times. The values   of the construction and construction of stone temples surpass the addition of a third art, painting, which, above all else, has given Ajanta its international reputation. .

Upon seeing the gates of the temples the visitor may wonder about the Profusion of country themes and the murals. She can be frustrated by the unrestricted vivacity of women's figures, the famous "Ajanta type" with well-rounded forms, dangling eyes, attractive mien and ample decoration.

The fact was that the artistic monks and their painters painted together and in equal measure the beauty of the female body and the spiritual beauty of the Bodhisattva.

There are thirty caves, some of which are unfinished and neglected. Sixteen contains murals, but the best work is to be found in caves 1, 2, 16, 17 and 19. The best sculptures are in Caves 1, 4, 17, 19, 24 and 26. is made in chronological order and has no relation to their chronological order.

It starts at the western edge of the rock, near the entrance. The current department does not seem to have been the first method of excavation.

Five caves, 9, 10, 19, 26, and 29, are chaitya halls. Some are vihars. As for the ancient artifacts (2nd BC to 2nd century AD), the formation of the Hinayana system, the arc Chaityas Caves 9 and 10, and the viharas 8, 12, 13, and 30. of the fifth and sixth centuries and made a series of Mahayana.

 In ancient times, each cave had a flight of stairs leading to a beautiful stream flowing deep through a narrow gorge. By the fall or in front of the cave most of these steps have been destroyed. The 1,2, 16, and 17 arc caves are illuminated by dot lamps, which are available for payment. Consumption is important.

The technique used by artists in ancient India is described in modern works of Aesthetics. First, clay, cow dung, and rice husks were placed on top of the selected rock and then pressed down. It forms a layer about one and a half inches in diameter.

 In this case the coat of the fine plow was spread out to obtain a smooth surface. The frames were painted with a brush and then dyed. The pigs used were of the simplest type of materials such as yellow earth, red Ocher, green rock crushed into burnt brick, black lamp, and copper oxide. The second was used. In this way, the structures were less visible.

Some brushes are used to complement the color until the image, in the language of ancient Aesthetics, "blooms". Finally, the relief of the plastic is achieved by blurring the black lines and capturing the highlights.

The central theme of the walls falls under two narrative scenes from the life of the Buddha and images of Jataka arguments. Within this spiritual framework, the whole race of life at that time is well covered.

Exposed to these walls is an image not only of either the Buddha and the Bodhisattvas, but of various spheres or types of people of various mental states, under the pressure of various emotions and expressed at all levels of society.

The paintings on the ceiling, unlike the ones on the wall, are especially decorative patterns. It includes geometric shapes, floral and decorative designs, flying figures of celestial beings, animals, birds, plants. A collection of panels or rooms, with enough variation in color schemes.
