1. į¹¢ri Veer Nārāyana Temple, BelāvādÄ«, Karnātakā

One of the most exquisite of the Hoysala trikutas, this temple is a gem and one of a kind. It is a detached trikuta, with the main garbha-griha separated by three corridors from the other two.

#Hindutemple
2. It is blessed with this outer gopuram which is a unique offering in a Hoysala temple like this. It now houses the broken vigrahās.
3. The elephants outside the outer gopuram reminds one of the earlier Madhukeshwara temple at Banavasi. Right in front is the house of the pradhāna arćaka of the temple. Their family is here for at least 400 years.

#thread #templesofgoa Stunning laterite stone temple of Shri Saptakoteshwar in #khandepar village in Goa. Located on the banks of the River Khandepar, the temple is of Shri Saptkoteshwar, a form of Lord Shiva. Shri Saptakoteshwar was the patron deity of the Kadambas who ruled Goa Image
According to Goan archeologist, Shri Mitragotri, this temple was probably built first by the Kadamabas but renovated extensively by the Vijayanagara kings. The existing temple is a 3 storey structure built out of laterite stone, crowned with a dome with a lotus bud shaped kalasha Image

Please read the whole #Thread. If only I could see all the ancient temples in India the way they were originally constructed, in their full glory. #hoysalaheritage #hindutemple #templearchitecture #dharmamusings
If only I could erase the hammer marks of the Islamic marauders and replace the amputated arms, the broken noses and hacked breasts of all the Murtis that they destroyed.
If only I could see our temples minus the modern day encroachments and misguided attempts to ā€˜redevelopā€™ - the RCC roofs, the ugly steel railings, the naked bulbs and cobwebbed wires hanging everywhere, random nails and tube lights stuck on centuries old stone.
