Dwarka is a metropolis referred to in Mahabharata as the dominion of Lord Krishna constructed the place the Gomti River met the Arabian Sea. The metropolis went underwater after Krishna’s dying, it’s mentioned. Archaeologists found some foundations underneath water and since then these are believed to be the stays of the traditional Dwarka.
“To pray in the city of Dwarka, which is immersed in the waters, was a very divine experience. I felt connected to an ancient era of spiritual grandeur and timeless devotion. May Bhagwan Shri Krishna bless us all,” PM Modi tweeted earlier within the day sharing the pictures from his underwater expertise.
Before his underwater prayer, Modi visited the Dwarkadhish temple within the morning and acquired an idol of Lord Krishna as a present from the temple.
“Whatever happens here is the wish of Dwarkadhish (Lord Krishna). I got the opportunity to offer my prayers at the temple. In the past few days, I got to undertake a spiritual journey in several parts of the country. A similar thing happened today and I will keep those moments with me. I went inside the sea to get a darshan of ancient Dwarka. Archaeologists have written a lot about the Dwarka city hidden underwater. In our scriptures too, it is said that Dwarka is like the crown of the world because of its beautiful gates and tall buildings. It is said the Lord Krishna himself designed the city,” PM Modi mentioned.
Modi mentioned it was his long-cherished dream to go to the submerged metropolis. He mentioned he spent fairly a very long time contained in the water as he made his resolve to make India ‘vikshit’ stronger as he provided his prayers.
