Part 1 of my talk on the location of Krishna's Dwaraka.
At first, I am discussing the feasibility of Bet Dwaraka in the Kutch region and the marine excavations in the Cambay region for being Krishna's Dwaraka. They don't match with Krishna's date of leaving the world in 3101 BCE.
Then I start finding its location from the details given in Harivamsa. Dwaraka was an island off the coast of Prabhas, i.e., Somnath. The nimitta-s noticed before the Dwaraka flood are discussed to know the nature of the calamity that befell on Dwaraka.
The last moments of the Vrishni-s and the nature of 'grass' that was used to kill each other are also analysed. The causes for the sinking of Dwaraka are traced to the submarine slide called 'Nataraja slide' happening for ages in that region. The prospects of locating the lost Dwaraka also discussed. There was a question - answer session at the end.
