Narkatari Temple at Kurukshetra in Haryana is believed to be the spot where Bhishma lay down on a bed of arrows after he was defeated by Arjuna in the battle of Kurukshetra in the Mahabharata. There is a holy tank or Kund known as Bhishma kund and a small temple here. It is in Thanesar on the Kurukshetra-Pehowa road. Bhishma Narkatari Temple and pond are of great significance as Arjuna brought Ganga as a spring from the ground here using his arrows to quench the thirst of Bhishma. It is at the same spot that Bhishma gave a lot of advice to Yudhishtira and the other Pandavas regarding worldly conduct and how to rule a kingdom. It is at the same spot that Bhishma finally died as he had got the boon that he will only die when he wished to die. Source: www.hindu-blog.com This footage is part o
