Research On Mount. Krauncha Based On Ramayana

My mother gave me this verse from Valmiki Ramayana and asked me to research on where Mount. Krauncha could be in the current world. 


The following is the verse and translation. 


क्रौन्चम् तु गिरिम् आसाद्य बिलम् तस्य सुदुर्गमम् |
अप्रमत्तैः प्रवेष्टव्यम् दुष्प्रवेशम् हि तत् स्मृतम् || ४-४३-२५ Valmiki Ramayana


Translation:
Thereafter on reaching Mount. Krauncha, you shall cautiously enter into a highly impassable tunnel of that mountain to search Sita. That tunnel, they say is an un-enterable one.

My Research Below:

Research On Regions Based On Tree Names From Ramayana

Research Done by me.
Mentor : My mom

I was given this verse from Valmiki Ramayana. My goal was to find out in which regions the trees mentioned by Sugreeva, are found in the current time. I was also asked to find out the botanical name of the trees and write few sentences about the trees.

Verse from Valmiki Ramayana

लोध्र पद्मक खण्डेषु देवदारु वनेषु च |
रावणः सह वैदेह्या मार्गितव्या ततः ततः || || ४-४३-१३ Valmiki Ramayana

Sugreeva instructs a vanara Shatabali and his army to go up North in search of Devi Sita. The above verse comes in the Kishkinda Kanda.

Translation:
In the stands of Lodhra Trees, Padmaka Trees and in the woods of Devadaru, or Deodar trees, Ravana is to be searched there and there, together with Seetha. 



My Research below.

Lord Rama - Zentangle Art

Happy Rama Navami to all. I drew this Zentangle Lord Rama inspired by Sanjay Patel's art. It took a week for me to draw this Lord Rama. I did not find any other zentangle art for Lord Rama in the internet. So, my guess is I could be the first one to draw a Zentangle Lord Rama. How excited I am!



Jai Sri Ram.
