Pindaraka is a village on the coast of Gujarat, near Dwarka. It was a watering-place repeatedly visited by Krishna. It is about twenty miles from the north-west extremity of the Kathiawar Peninsula. In the Mahabharatha, Pindaraka is described as "One should proceed with subdued senses and regulated diet to Dwaravati, whereby bathing in "the holy place called Pindaraka, () one obtaineth the fruit of the gift of gold in abundance (3,82)." It is situated Ujjyantha parva, and also described in Mahabharatha as "Ujjayantaparvata, this mountain is situated in Saurashtra near Pindaraka temple. This mountain is said to have mystic powers as per Mahabharata Vanaparva Chapter 21." The temple was submerged in sea at the end of Dwaraka's Yadava clash among them. The National Institute of Oceanography, Goa discovered a submerged temple complex along the coast of Pindaraka. An onshore exploration on the northwestern Saurashtra revealed the remains of a temple complex currently in the tidal zone. This is the place where the saints (rishis) cursed Yadava clan, which resulted in the clan's destruction.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=who were the rushis who cursed yadava at pindaraka kshetra? )〕 ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Pindaraka」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
