    Name this event from Indian history -

    Natraj and Prithviraj went to the zoo,
    the spooks were always watching
    but they didn't have a clue!

    Bonus clue:

    sri-bhagavan uvaca
    kalo 'smi loka-ksaya-krt pravrddho
    lokan samahartum iha pravrttah
    rte 'pi tvam na bhavisyanti sarve
    ye 'vasthitah pratyanikesu yodhah


    (The Blessed Lord said: Time I am, destroyer of the worlds, and I have come to engage all people. With the exception of you [the Pandavas], all the soldiers here on both sides will be slain.)

    Struggling with a low opinion of our neurites are we? :rotfl
    That bonus clue is over-over-overkill!
    Once the psilobycin wore off, the answer was clear in a flash and without the bonus, mind you. 'Prithviraj' was a good touch, 'spooks' was a giveaway.

    Kya karein? When one doesn't find any answers forthcoming after nearly 12 hours of posting the puzzle, self-doubt starts to creep in. I know that bonus clue makes the solution very obvious. That's the reason I didn't post it the first time around.

    At one point I had the hairstyle of Prithviraj. It wasn't very flattering on me.

    What is the curvature of my trajectory, atleast in the same galactic slipstream - something to do with Shivaji and Aurangzeb? I've no idea about that flashing sloka.

    I just returned from Chit and Ambaram so you can imagine my state on seeing that puzzle, what would have erupted as super-imposed answer from one thread to another. Out of curiosity , are we doing a theme here -- Indian ? Bit out of date with trending puzzles.


    Okay I am only into the puzzle for 5 min, 12 hours I would have landed in some salt marshes of Rann of Kutch
