Ending the year with a memorable trip to historic and ancient landmarks is a wonderful way to reflect on the past and look ahead to the future. Visiting these iconic sites allows us to connect with the rich history and culture of the region, and it can also be a deeply meaningful and spiritual experience.
Whether I visited Ellora, the Jyotirling at Aurangabad, or the Vishnu temple at Lonar, the trip was filled with memorable moments and unforgettable experiences. From marveling at the intricate carvings and sculptures on the temples and caves to experiencing the peaceful atmosphere of the Jyotirling, these ancient sites offer a unique and enriching experience that can stay with us long after the trip is over.
I found myself deeply connected when I visited Vishnu Temple. 11th-century temple, with Sri Hari standing tall and smiling. I couldn’t control my emotions or happiness. Apart from remembering our beloved Swamiji, echoing his name in the garbh gruh, I thought it was destined coz of the journey that started this year. The temple is the only second temple to have Brahma Vishnu and Mahesh idols together. Along with 1200 sculptures, including Surya devata.
As the year comes to a close, a trip to these historic and ancient landmarks is significantly inspiring, enlightening, and rejuvenating. Here’s to many more memorable trips and adventures in the future!
Wishing you all a Happy 2023!
Jai Sri Hari 🙏
