SHREE GOLOKDHAM TIRTH

(SHREE KRISHNA NEEJDHAM PRASTHAN TIRTH / DEHOTSARG TEERTH)

This Tirtha is located on the banks of Hiran at a distance of 1.5km from Somnath temple.

Bhagvan Shree Krishna took his divine journey to Neejdham from this sacred soil.  Rich accounts of the divined Shree  Krishna  Neejdham  Prasthan  Leela  are  maintained by the authentic traditions of Mahabhart,  Shrimad Bhagwat, and Vishnu Puran etc.

Swami Shri Gajananand Saraswatiji has critically examined the previously mentioned classical Indian traditions and suggested the  time  of Neejdham Prasthan.  He suggested that Shri Krishna departed on the first day of bright fortnight of Chaitra month  (which corresponds with 18 February of English calendar)  in the year 3102 B.C.  at 2:27:30 hours.

The footprint of Bhagvan Shree Krishna is carved here to mark the divine memory of Shree Krishna Neejdham Prasthan Leela.  Baldevji,  the elder brother of  Shree Krishna also took his last journey from here in his original serpent form.  This is marked by an ancient holy cave called “Dauji-ni Gufa”.
