The story of an inner journey....


I was away for almost three weeks, for the temple consecration, the ardha kumbha mela (the most pious fair where bathing in river ganges, which comes every 6 years) and then going to a famous temple in maharashtra gave me lot of inner energy. The making of the temple which made me feel attunded to the inner self as well as the supreme consciousness is one very good experiences that I have had for many years.
I am going to write about it in these pages in coming days, if you have free time and want to know about these events in my life, please visit this blog where I am going to post that story and also going to share some amazing pictures that I have had taken in these places. Have a look at it and enjoy. As I feel that these images, the story and the experience when shared will also make you look at your self inwards and may give you lot of positive energy.
The image here is of Lord Shiva (in south Indian style) which was worshipped till the time the main Idol in the temple was consecrated. The Maha Abhishek, and the Prana Pratishthan is something of a ritual where when a new temple is made, we invite the presiding deity of the temple to come and live in the temple. This is a very elaborate event and stretches over few days. This image made by the sthapathis was the face of the idol before it was consecrated and once that was done, this image was removed to reveal the original Shiva Linga that was brought from a very powerful source of Shiva Lingas called Baan Linga from the bed of a famous river in north India.
Om Namah Shivaya
