Things to Know – Dwarkadhish Temple

History / Myth:

Dwarka is considered as Capital of Shree Krishna hile and Bet Dwarka as a residence. Shree Krishna used to conduct his religious assembly at Dwarka.

One of the four holy pilgrimage sites for Hindus, it often feels like the end of the earth with temples overlooking the Arabian Sea on the western tip of Gujarat. It is closely linked with many legends from Lord Krishna’s life.

It is believed that Krishna dwelled the rest of his earthly life in Dwarka after fleeing from Mathura.

The architecture of the temple:

The Dwarkadhish temple consists of Garbhagriha, Antarala, Mandapa, and Ardhamandapa. The Mandapa is open on all sides and rises to five-storey and has 60 pillars to support them. The temple has a high conical shikhara with a height of about 50 meters (165 feet) while the pyramidal roof of Mandapa is adorned with a series of tiny bell-shaped domes. The exterior facade and the Shikhara of the temple are profusely carved but internally it is plain. A shrine of Shakti-Mata is located on the fourth storey of the temple.

The temple complex has two main gates for entrance. The one on the southern side is known as “Swargadwar” which is accessible by 56 steps or “Chhappan Sidhi” from Gomati creek, whereas the northern gate is known as “Mokshadwar”.

During Krishna’s Childhood, he played Ras leelas many times with gopies (young female inhabitant of Vruj). They travelled from ‘Vruj’ to Dwarka, to meet Shree Krishna. After playing Ras Leelas again with Shree Krishna, on the night of ‘Sharad Purnima’, they offered their lives to the soil of this land and hence this land has become popular as ‘Gopi Talav’.

Rukmini Temple (Shree Krishna’s Patranis), is located 2 km away from Dwarka. There is a myth associated with it once Krishna and Rukhmini went to ‘Durvasha rushi’ to invite him at Dwarka. He was agreed on the condition that they (Krishna & Rukhmini) have to carry the chariot instead of any animal. Krishna & Rukhmini happily agreed to do so. While driving the chariot, Rukhmini became thirsty. Then Krishna stopped the chariot and made the water of Holy River Ganga. ‘Durvasha’ annoyed by the action and curse Rukhmini to stay away from Shree Krishna Hence it is located 2 km.
