Chausat Yogini temple is a very old one built around 1025 A.D. while the sanctum sanctorum along with the temple is in good shape, the statues of the 64 yogins is not - having been destroyed apparently by the mughal invaders. One of the unique features of this temple is that both Shiva and Parvati appear together riding on Nandi. The photos should be self explantory.

yeh keep posting man, by the way what is yogins?

practitioner of various forms of spiritual practice. In Hinduism it refers to an adherent of Yoga.

The Shiva-Samhita text defines the yogi as someone who knows that the entire cosmos is situated within his own body, and the Yoga-Shikha-Upanishad distinguishes two kinds of yogins: those who pierce through the "sun" (surya) by means of the various yogic techniques and those who access the door of the central conduit (sushumna-nadi) and drink the nectar

:D
 
with the help of this thread even i am getting to know my country and my religion better.....
 
That was NOT and is NOT a troll since we consider Sikkim and AP disputed areas and not part of India.


You can claim that but its a fact these are disputed areas.

Now you can carry on.


@raju yara it is not at all insulting. The media uses it in very much in the same meaning as you use the word Indian.

Right. Whatever lets you sleep at night ;)

If you want AP or Sikkim for China or even Kashmir for yourself, come take it. We're getting bored already :bunny:
 
1 more beautiful city from my state

Indore - The City of Holkars

Trivia - Indore derives its name from the temple 'Indreshwar' built in 1753 by a Chandra-vanshi peshwa hailing from Pune.Indore used to be an important halting point for Maratha Warriors in the early 18th century as it lay in midway from Deccan to Delhi. Later, city came to be known as 'Indrapur', then as 'Indur' until The British rechristened it to its present name.
