What are your true intentions of posting this?

As I told you before I am not religious and I don't take cheap shots at other people religions.

My true intentions of posting this? According to National Geographic :-

"For an animal that is commonly associated with pestilence and disease, this may seem strange. But during the century of this temple's existence, there has never been an outbreak of plague or other ratborne illness among the humans who have visited—which may be a miracle in itself.

I know I took three classes in Art for my own interest.. Art of Egypt, Art of India and Art of Asia in general...

All of them were very very interesting classes... and for our assignments we had to visit Minneapolis Institute of Arts.. for Art of India... i choose my own topic of Paintings made during the reign of Akbar and comparing them with the paintings made during the reign of Jehangir.. and try giving specific reasons why they were different during each period... The paintings made during Jehangir reign are mostly calm, tranquil about birds, animals etc etc and the paintings made during Akbar reign were mostly about war, fights etc...

@Tu Tu
Madhya Pradesh is gaining the reputation for its many educational institutions that are attracting students from all over the country. not to mention that the only place that has both IIM (Indian Istitute of Management) IIT (Indian Institute of Technology) in the same city is Indore.
So, I request you if you could post some pictures of such institutions...
