Busy Saturday at the colourful temple
Posted on March 27, 2017
since we had a friend visiting us we wanted to show the colourful temple even though it was Saturday and thus filled with people.
lots of food where being prepared ….a group of kids ( actually everybody ) where intrigued by our visit since we where the only non Indians at the temple.
Nandi, Lord Shivs mount
Lord Shiv
Lord Hanuman
climbing into the tigers mouth …walking down the tongue
some of the temple cows….young ones
the temple Sadhu and I…this was the first Sadhu I met four years back and ever since I sit down and have a little “chat” every time we meet and every time I get his blessing
a big group of Sadhus waiting for the food that was being prepared at different spots around the temple.
this was actually the first time I saw the whole process of the blessing of the food for the Sadhus who eat first and then they serve all the people at the temple.
Indian Sadhu’s and Swedish students
Posted on February 27, 2017
I just had to show the Swedish students my favourite temple, the colourful one with my friend since four years back, one of the Sadhu’s….
here’s my friend.I can’t believe I’ve met him for four years at different temples ! he was happy and honoured that they wanted to visit the temple…
he arranged for the students to get flowers and he also blessed us after walking through the tigers mouth and gave us all a third eye, the sixth chakra, the channel through which humankind opens spiritually to the Divine.
as always it was a really nice visit..happy to show the students parts of my life in India.
Sadhus-Sadhvi at a temple in sector 21, Gurgaon, India

Sadhu’s, Indias holy men, at a temple in sector 21 Gurgaon, India
this was actually the first time I met a “holy woman” and I learned that she is called a sadhvi and I also met the sadhu with the longest hair I have ever seen. dreadlocks as long as he himself ! wow !
(sadhus-sadhvis are solely dedicated to achieving moksa,(liberation), the fourth and final asrama (stage of life) through meditation and contemplation of Brahman)
I hope you know that you can click on each of the pictures and have a look at each one individually.
