Anyone heard of Gokarna?

[DJK]

I am leaving for my next trip tonight.. I am headed to gokarna. I have never been there before. has anyone been there before? would you lps tell ema little about the place?

[leebaba]

i had been rather lugged along to gokarna once, by my parents..
aparently its the place where the unsuspecting ravana was tricked to place the shivlin on the ground by our very own smart alec ganesha . It was supposed to be very dear to the gods(Well.....this is the bottom line actually) and somebody had to trick ravana to place it on the ground and the moment he did that whoaaaaaaaa the shivling reportedly started sinking (thats what the gods wanted.....just goes to show they would rather have something sink that to give it away to a more deserving one... )

and booooy its not the end you can still have a glimpse of that thing in the etemple near the sea(100-150 mtrs from sea shore).....what else.....that's it about the place nothing else that i know of....

did this help....i doubt it........

one amazing place dude....
if you go around the right time of the year...you can expect a horde of foreigners ....mostly young and carefree .....you'll surely drool.....
but i hope you haunt the beaches alone and not with your parents....
will be a tremendous execise to the .....eyes
