Dhakeshwari National Temple, Dhaka, Bangladesh


The term Dhakeshwari means “Goddess of Dhaka”, and this temple is considered to be the most important Hindu temple in Bangladesh after Ramna Kali Mandir was demolished by Pakistan Army in the Liberation War in 1971. It is state-owned and thus is called a “national temple”.

Thillai Nataraja Temple, Chidambaram


Chidambaram is derived from chit, meaning ‘consciousness’ and ambaram, which means ‘sky’ from aakasam. It refers to Chidaakasam, which is the sky of consciousness that all Vedas and scriptures believe is the ultimate aim for anyone to achieve.

It is home to one of just a few examples of Shiva being represented by an anthropomorphic murthi, with the bejewelled image of Nataraja.

Made up of five courts, Aragalur Udaya Iraratevan Ponparappinan rebuilt the Siva temple at Chidambaram around 1213 AD and has been administered by an endogamous group of shiavite brahmins called Dikshitar.

A legend surrounding the temple dates back to when Lord Shiva rolled into Thilai Vanam (a forest of mangrove trees) where a group of saint, or ‘rishis’ were residing. These rishis believed that God can be controlled by magic and magical words.

Did you know:The #world's tallest #Ganesha statue (Bronze) is not in #India, but in #Thailand!

This giant standing #bronze #statue of Lord Ganesha is in #Khlong Khuean, #Chachoengsao Province, Thailand 🇹🇭.

At #39_meters high, he is the tallest Ganesha statue in the world. He was installed by #Thai Princess #Soamsawali #Phravararajatinuddamat.

Now imagine if they did this in India. All the liberals would shout "waste of money, spend it on toilets".

Today, #Thai #Buddhists celebrate the birth of Ganesha just as #Hindus celebrate #Ganesh_Chaturthi.

Lord Ganesha is known as #"Phra_Phikanet" (Shri Vignesha) in Thailand. He is very popular among Thai Buddhists.

Just as by Hindus, he is worshiped as the #deity of #success and as the one who removes all obstacles by Thai Buddhists. They worship him on occasion of the commencement of a new business or on occasion of a wedding. Associated with art and culture, Ganesha forms a part of the logo of Thailand’s department of Fine Arts.

This is an excellent example of the spectacular #Hoysala style of architecture.

Full of intricate sculptures; beautiful and #ornate carvings, #pillars, #lintels and #ceilings, this magnificent work of art is one of the few well preserved #Hoysala monuments.
