Remnants of Abatsahayesvar Shiva Temple, Thukkacchi, TN

The current temple was constructed by Raja Vikarama Chola in 12th century.
It is the only big Temple built by Vikrama chola, based on moulded clay and fired bricks, built as components of sculptures and vimana parts.
Pranala is the water outlet from the Garbagriha. Makara pranala is used in the Garbagriha of Thalakkadkavu Bhagavati temple, Malappuram.

Makara is vahana of river Goddesses like Narmada, Ganga and are considered guardians of the entryway to temples.

The structure infront of nandi maharaj is also a temple not the mosque. The walls with defaced hindu symbols are witnesses.

Gyanvapi means the "well of knowledge" and source of divine water for hindus so it should be called gyanvapi mandir not gyanvapi masjid.

Ancient Shiva Temple found in excavation in agricultural land in Nanded, MH
For past few years, thanks to support from the society across Bharat and world we have been undertaking the restoration of ancient temples.

As on date, we have documented nearly 200 ancient temples and undertaken restoration of 10 ancient temples.

We are now looking to institutionalise and formalise what we are doing, so that the efforts gets replicated across Bharat. For that purpose we would like to form a #ReclaimTemples global community that will support and work towards the restoration of ancient temples in Bharat.

Thanks to all. All suggestions are welcome.
