to See |
The
Papanasam Beach at Varkala is a quiet, secluded beach
known for its white, silvery stretch of sand, mineral
springs and rocky cliffs. The raw and unused stretch of
beach is a loner’s delight where one could swim, play
cricket or volley ball and even manage to practise yoga.
If you are lucky, you also get sight of a naughty dolphin.. |
| Varkala
is also an important Hindu centre of pilgrimage. The final
resting place of Sree Narayana Guru, the great social
reformer of Kerala, is near Varkala atop a hill named
Sivagiri. |
According
to a myth, sage Narada was approached by a group of mendicants
who confessed to having sinned. Narada threw his valkkalam
(the bark of tree which the mythical sages used to wear)
into the air, and the place where it landed was subsequently
named Varkala. The mendicants were directed by Narada
to offer their prayers in the newly created place by the
seashore. The place where they prayed for redemption came
to be known as the Papanasham Beach ('Papanasham' means
redemption from sins). . |
