After my ride, I can't leave this page..I restarted the phone, uninstalled reinstalled, nothing... How to leave this page

Bangalore has gone from garden City to garbage city.. But I love lal bagh.. Can't stand it being treated like this.

Looking for like minded individuals to come join me.

This is a hero stone which was erected by a homestay where we stayed for a small vacation

​

The homestay was ancestral land and passed down generation to generation and I suspect this hero stone tells the story behind how they came to own this land.

​

The hero stone has three layers as can been seen

1. lowermost part- a battle / a raid between villages where cattle were likely the target

2. the middle zone - the warrior having suffered a lethal injury is being guided to the afterworld by celestial angels/ apsaras.

3. the top zone : the hero or warrior is in presence of the heavenly dirty ( note the shivaling)

​

Another interesting point Is the presence of the moon and sun on the top zone, symbolising eternity..like " as long as day and night exists...the warrior will be in heavenly glory and this land is given as a token of his sacrifice to his surviving family.

​

I wish I could have spoken to the homestay and picked his brain a bit but unfortunately... Only the servants were there and the actual owners were abroad.

​

Thoughts?
