🧘♂️ Sandipani Ashram, Ujjain – Walk the Path Where Lord Krishna Once Studied
Step into the sacred story of Lord Krishna’s student days—just 4 km from Ujjain Junction
Ujjain, once known as Avantika, isn’t just a city of temples—it’s a place where gods once became students. One of its most soul-stirring landmarks is Sandipani Ashram, where Lord Krishna, Balarama, and their dear friend Sudama learned the scriptures, archery, and spiritual wisdom under Maharishi Sandipani.
This isn’t just myth—it’s living legend. And when you visit, you don’t just see stones and water—you feel the echo of divine footsteps.
🕉️ What Makes Sandipani Ashram So Special?
📜 Ankapata Stone
A rare slab carved with numbers from 1 to 100, believed to be etched by Sandipani himself. It’s a silent symbol of ancient education and devotion.
💧 Gomti Kund
The serene stepped tank where Lord Krishna brought sacred waters from all holy rivers—so his guru wouldn’t need to travel for rituals. The kund is still filled with water and devotion.
🐂 The Standing Nandi
Unlike most Shaivite shrines, this bull statue stands openly—honoring the close ties between Krishna’s family and Lord Shiva.
🐚 The Guru Dakshina Tale
As a token of gratitude, Krishna and Balarama battled the demon Shankhasura, retrieved the guru’s lost son from the underworld, and brought him back using the Panchajanya conch.
