About - Shri Shri Pandava Footprint at Bhimkhanda (Jharkhand, India)

॥ “Shri Shri Pandava Footprint” ॥

This huge footprint on the rock at Bhimkhanda, an ancient tourist spot, and the small inscription in Bangla script nearby prove the existence of Sri Sri Bheem Paduka. During the reign of the Kipal dynasty, the common people here were familiar and influenced by the events of Mahabharata in some way or the other. This type of script was used during the reign of the Pala dynasty. According to the calculations of morphological anthropology, the height of the person who left this footprint could be up to 25-30 feet. According to the references mentioned in the Puranas, the height of people was the same even in the Dwapar Yuga.

About: Shri Shri Ekta Sankalp Vriksha, Bhimkhanda

॥॥ “Shri Shri Ekta Sankalp Vriksha” ॥॥

This “Shri Shri Ekta Sankalp Vriksha” located at Bhimkhanda ancient tourist spot is known as the Arjun tree in the local language, whose botanical name is Terminalia Arjuna and Nadi Srij in Sanskrit. Every part of this tree is full of medicinal properties. On careful observation, it can be seen that its two branches are recombined and three sub-branches emerge from one and two from the other. These five sub-branches represent the five Pandavas and two branches represent Mother Kunti and Madri. This tree represents the resolution of the unbreakable unity of the Pandu sons who were in trouble after the Varanavat Lakhshagriha fire incident. It teaches us that “Difficulties in life do not come to destroy but to awaken the hidden power and energy in man”.

Clean Shave/Head Massage in Saraikela – How much I Paid?

Clean Shave/Head Massage in Saraikela – How much I Paid? – The question.

I requested a local friend for a salon visit.

We visited ‘The Look’ an air-conditioned salon at Thana Chowk, Saraikela.

‘The Look’ is a 10-year-old salon that provides services like Hair Straightening/Face Wash/Hair Color/Bleach/Hair Spa etc. etc.

Raj the barber before shaving applied Ponds facewash. Then after face cleaning applied Nivea Shaving Foam which was a new experience.

Till-date, I have never applied Nivea Shaving Foam for shaving.

I always try to apply Gillette Shaving Foam.

Till-date I have experienced five types of branded shaving foam excluding Nivea Shaving Foam – Gillette, Brooks, Cimelle, Galaxy & V12.

The difference?

No idea.

All I can say – the clean shave was as good as in any other city barbershop.

Now it was time for a head/shoulder/back/arms massage – my personal favorite.

Raj poured Streax Hair Serum on head which was a new experience.

The Head/Shoulder/Back/Arms massage was excellent as I was tired of traveling.

How much do I pay?

Rs. 50 only for shaving – He replied.

How much for the massage? – I question.

Again Rs. 50 only – The reply.

Only 100 rupees. Very cheap – a thought within.

In short, the results were satisfying. I was happy.
