A stone and a coin from the era of Shriram !

A stone from the ‘ Ramsethu ‘ filled with divine consciousness (chaitanya) !

Despite weighing 4 kilograms this stone obtained from the Ramsethu floats when lighter stones sink, as observed in the water tank above

Rameshwaram, the pilgrim  place is situated on the east coast of the state of Tamilnadu. Eleven kilometres to its south is a city called Dhanushkodi.  The proximal part of Ramsethu is called Dhanushkodi (meaning the tip of a bow) because 17.5 lakh years ago Shriram had selected this spot as the site to construct a bridge to enter Srilanka (Lanka of Ravan), using the tip of His heavy bow. Even today we can see shrubs in a row on huge boulders as remnants of the bridge. The Ramsethu is a unique architectural wonder of Nal amd Neel. The Valmiki Ramayan gives detailed information that the proportion of width to the length of the Ramsethu is 1 : 10. Actual measurement has revealed that its breadth is only 3.5 km and length 35 km. Every generation of Hindus is well versed with the legends of how a tiny squirrel participated in the construction of this bridge and how the boulders used in the construction are still floating on the waters of the Indian ocean.
