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 clam 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 ags, sought and founds 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.
