infoOFKAND-MOOLeaten byRAM-SITA( edit)

Folks !! I thought lemme share this info. Abt the fruit KAND-MOOL which RAM-SITAJI & LAXMAN!! Used to eat in their exile days !!😛

As it's given in RAM-CHARITMANAS tht RAM-SITA & LAXMAN used to eat KAND-MOOL in their exile days .😛

When I visited to CHITRAKOOT { last year },then I saw this special fruit by my self!! This fruit is white in colour ,skinny peal & it's really soft !! when u cut it it's a slightly orangish in colour from inside(in the centre) & whitish towards the periphery !! it's oval in shape ,somewhat like papaya !!! shaped!!😛 but from outside it's brownish in colour ,it's like potato brown in colour (when fully ripe) & it's slender ,long (longer than papaya ) . it's totally white (creamy white ) from inside when fully ripe.

(i forgot to add this info , abt kand-mool fruit) ,when i & my mother first saw the shopkeepers selling the fruit by cutting tht slender whole big kand-mool fruit into slices ,we 1st thought they were selling ice-cream becaz it was totally brownish from outside & creamy white from inside !!!!.😛.

it's the yummiest fruit tht i have ever eaten !!😛

When I visited CHITRAKOOT at KAMADGIRI PARVAT ,as all the main temples are at KAMADGIRI PARVAT & it's considered sooooooo auspicious to do parikrama of this parvat(mountain) !! there the shopkeepers were selling this KAND-MOOL fruits ON THE KAMADGIRI parvat ,even the people were selling this fruits while sitting on the streets of kamadgiri parvat !!!! 😛as it's grown in tht jungles at the kamadgiri mountain !!!! so it's easily available !!! it's yummy also if u eat it & very very soft !!! 😛

This kand-mool special fruit could be seen at the kamadgiri parvat at chitrakoot as it's grown in the jungles of chitrakoot😛 ,

there r sooooooooo dense forests at chitrakoot & the beautiful & green watered MANDAKINI RIVER !! flowing there !! & lots of things of RAM-SITA & LAXMAN ji cud be seen there ,even the place where RAM-SITA & LAXMAN made their hut at the banks of river MANDAKINI !!!! the kitchen of SITAJI is also there !!😛

so folks if any of u visit the beautiful CHITRAKOOT do eat the special KAND-MOOL FRUIT which our RAM-SITA & LAXMAN JI ate in their exile days !! 😛

seriously I was sooooooooo happy to see this special fruit kand-mool tht OUR RAM-SITA & LAXMAN Ji ate !!! as this fruit is rarely found !! but in chitrakoot this is available in plenty !!!😛

i thought kand mool referred to Kand: stem and mool : roots of plants

i mean vegs like potato etc

yeah!! MANDAKINI RIVER is green watered & it's another name of river GANGA !!😛

there u wud get to see the sphatic stone rocks near the bank of river MANDAKINI where RAM-SITA used to rest ,the priests & the saints at chitrakoot told us tht RAM JI USED TO LOVE THE SPHATIC STONE (white stone ,shining soooooo much ) . on the big sphatic white rock there r footprints of RAM-SITAJI & there is also a beautiful place at MANDAKINI RIVER where SITAJI used to take bath ,it's surrounded by rocks !! IN B/W THE RIVER !!

chitrakoot is a lushy green serene & a beautiful place !!! HANUMAN GARHI IS ANOTHER mountain there besides KAMADGIRI mountain !!!😛

hey thanks for all the info
all these days i used to think that "kand mool" meant the general hindi term for "berries/root" which means eating vegetables/roots, etc

thanx a lot dear for d info 😛

thanks for the info dear, u r so lucky , u visited chitrakoot, good to hear abt sitajis kitchen n all...
so exciting to hear all this. I have seen kand mool , i think its also named as ram-fal , seen here in Dongargarh - temple of maa bamleshwari.

thanks a bunch rupa for telling tht kand-mool is also known as RAMFAL !!! i think becaz RAMJI ate it during his exile days !! so it's also known as RAMFAL !!!!

YEAH!!! IN THE SITAJI'S KITCHEN all the utensils were earthenpots & the chulha of SITAJI was also there made up of mud !!!

there is such a palace like TULSIDAAS & RAM-SITA TEMPLE !!! made up of white marbel ,& the whole RAMCHARIT MANAS PICTURES R depicted on the walls of this temple ,the pictures r decorated with all the colourful precious stones !! the whole RAMAYAN is depicted in the picture form !!! it's a paalace like huge temple & very very beautiful !!!

hey its so nice to get to know all this information. wish we could also visit this place!
