Notes: Sheshna’s well, a stone stairwell leading down to a sealed “door” engraved with serpents. The site of many ‘channeled‘ Yoga texts and the traditional portal to Patala and Snakeworld aka Nagaloka, a 7-leveled reptilian cavern world with its capital Bhoga-Vita.
While the entrance to Bhogavati is somewhere in the Himalayas, it has been asserted that Patala can be entered through the Well of Sheshan in Benares, India.
According to herpetologist and author Sherman A. Minton, as stated in his book Venomous Reptiles, this entrance is very real, with forty steps which descend into a circular depression, to terminate at a closed stone door which is covered in bas-relief cobras.

Notes: Massive UNDERGROUND CAVE TEMPLES and underground SHRINES, The Cave Temples of Ellora consists of 34
magnificent Buddhist, Hindu and Jain caves, hewn out of the solid rock of Charandari hill from 600 – 1000 AD. Outside cave 29, the Bodhisattva Avalokiteshvara, is seated on the Lotus. The stalk of the Lotus is being held by the Naga people.
There is a legend, the nâga were a reptilian race of beings. In Tibet, the nâga was equated with the klu (pronounced lu), spirits that dwell in lakes or underground streams and guard treasure. At the Ajanta Caves is an image of Lord Shiva, sitting next to his wife, Parvathy… behind him is the Seven-Headed Nâga serpents LIKE those depicted in statues on Cambodian temples, such as Angkor Wat, (these represent the seven races within Nâga society).

Notes: Traditional entrance to the underworld of Patalas, which is divided into 7 realms:
- Rasatala
- Mahatala
- Alala
- Sutala
- Vitala
- Talatala
- Patala
Some legends say that it is the abode of reptilian humanoids, but human “appearing” beings have also traditionally been encountered within Patalas. King Bhunandana allegedly entered this domain of “forbidden pleasures” via a portal in the peak of Pradyumna [or Hill of Sarika].
The underground journey to Patalas took 5 days and nights. Upon arriving, the king and his knights encountered an underground plain with trees from which hung human corpses, and also large vats of liquid in which human flesh and blood were mixed.
A “woman” appeared and offered the king a cup of the “vile” liquid, stating that unless he drank it he would not prosper. He took the cup and threw its substance in disgust at the feet of the so-called “goddess“, who in anger told him to take his men and leave that realm, and King Bhunandana obliged.
