Welcome to this spiritual and adventurous journey with me (Ameya A. Deshpande) – The Narmada Parikrama (circumambulate Narmada)

Day 10 – 1st February 2011

Date : 1st February 2011
Start : Bedaghat
End  : Sahadol
Distance :   286 km

Route : Bedaghat - Katni - Sahadol

Bedaghat is also a tourist place. Its a very beautiful place and I made a pact to myself to visit Bedaghat again in life sometimes.
The morning temperature was just below 5 degree so one can imagine our state while bathing in the chilled river water. But it was fun.

Then we went to the 64 Yogini temple (चौसष्ट योगिनी देऊळ) , had to climb around 108 steps. During this we met a smart small boy


. He introduced himself and showed us the whole place. So this 7th standard kid Mahesh kumar Bhumia (Rambharose) was our guide at Bedaghat.
I hired a small boat and me and Rambharose went for a sail. Here Narmada has carved her way through the large limestone rocks. Its a picturesque view. It is advised to sail during a full moon night when the rocks glow.
We saw a large snake sunbthing on the rocks. Further I also collected Narmada pebbles as souvenir.

After having breakfast with Rambharose we left for Shahadol.

Shahadol is a simple town which is not on the banks of Narmada.
