India history and geography
Source: Heidelberg: Glory of the Tiruvanantapuram Padmanabhasvami TempleBālakrīḍa (बालक्रीड) is the first chapter of the Syānandūrapuravarṇana-prabandha by Svāti-Tirunāḷ (1813-1846) (one of the rulers of Travancore) which deals with the different activities of the Thiruvananthapuram Temple, including ceremonies and festivals.—The first chapter, Bālakrīḍa, begins by extolling the glory of Lord Padmanābha and then moves on to the story of Divākaramuni as told in the Anantaśayanakṣetramāhātmya. But instead of Dvāraka (the capital city of Ānarta), this text mentions Ānarta itself as the place where sage Divākara stayed.
The history of India traces the identification of countries, villages, towns and other regions of India, as well as mythology, zoology, royal dynasties, rulers, tribes, local festivities and traditions and regional languages. Ancient India enjoyed religious freedom and encourages the path of Dharma, a concept common to Buddhism, Hinduism, and Jainism.
