Map of Trikuta and its surroundings
A hand-drawn map of Trikuta, Lanka and its surrounding regions as preserved in the Chronicle of Sarama.
I have my loyalties and my grievances, as all witnesses do. Even so, I have tried to set down these events faithfully and leave judgment to those who come after us.
For Readers Who Want to Go Further who want to extend this
This map is a starting point, not a complete survey. You can expand it. Create separate maps for different key areas. Detail the Palace District for a siege. Map the vast Ashokvana to follow Sita’s movements, or the route of her entry to Lanka, and Marut’s (Hanuman) entry. (Look for links to modern Hakgala, the red Sita Flower, and the Tear Pond of modern Ramboda). Survey the Battlefield, including the Fire Ordeal ground. Use Sarama and Sita’s notes as data layers. Connect these new maps to the world of Lanka or Aryavarta using the dual compass. Trikuta is only one piece of the puzzle. Leave a commment using “Select A Passage” option under Dear Reader.
