Chitrakoot
Chitrakoot, 'the hill of many wonders', nestles peacefully in the
northern spurs of the Vindhyas, a place of tranquil forest glades and
quiet rivers, and streams where calm and repose are all pervading. This
loveliest of Nature's gifts is also hallowed ground, blessed by the gods
and sanctified by the faith of pilgrims. For Chitrakoot's spiritual
legacy stretches back to legendary ages: it was in these deep forests
that Rama and Sita spent eleven of their fourteen years of exile; here
that the great sage Atri and Sati Anusuya meditated; and here where the
principal trinity of the Hindu pantheon, Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh, took
their incarnations.
Sufferers and seekers, poets and visionaries, princes and noblemen have,
through the ages, sought and found solace in Chitrakoot, drawn
inspiration from its sublime natural beauty, gained spiritual strength
from its serene temples and in turn, become part of the hallowed legend
that is Chitrakoot..
