India history and geography
Source: What is India: Inscriptions of the Kalachuri-chedi eraBrāhmaṇapurī (ब्राह्मणपुरी) is the name of a locality identified with Bamhori, about two miles east of Kārītalāi, as mentioned in the Kārītalāi stone inscription of Lakṣmanarāja II.—Accordingly, “[...] May this ... of this (temple), the top of which supports the egg of Brahman, and which is the peg that renders the earth immovable, last as long as the world ! (And) may the world endure as long as this temple of (Viṣṇu), the enemy of Mura, will shine ... Such is (our) wish ! The king made eight Brahmanas, resembling (as many) Vasus, settle in this city (and) gave them a village named Dirghasakhika”.
These stone slabs (mentioning Brāhmaṇapurī) were discovered at Kārītalāi, a village in the Murwārā tahsil of the Jabalpur District in Madhya Pradesh. They mention three Kalachuri princes, Yuvarājadeva, Lakṣmanarāja and Śankaragana [Śaṅkaragaṇa?].
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.
