Neglected, locked 2,400+ yrs old Vishnu Mandir Stambh with Brahmi inscription venerating Vasudeva & glorifying Hindu Raja as "Saviour Bhagabhadra" in Vidisha
both under ASI ⁉️

Why does the ShivLing (not at all khandit) in the Dulhadeo Mandir #Khajuraho , remain un worshipped, caged behind bars of @ASIGoI ❓

Desecration didn't just happen.

A line drawn at an angle to equator, joins all the great ancient structures like Pyramids in Giza, Khajuraho temple, Angor Wat Temple, the Nazca lines & the also the mysterious EASTER islands.
The best part is the error by which these structures deviate frm the line is...

This proves the structures wr intentionally built to b on this line.👇

Entire #LakshmanaTemple complex stands on a high platform (Jagati). Its shikhara is clustered with minor urushringas (a subsidiary tower springing from sides of the main shikhara tower in the Hindu temple architecture of northern India.)

Beginning #MPtrail with this pic - taken in #Chhatarpur district of Madhya Pradesh. This is at a Chandella temple site of the greatest antiquity, a site whose temples pre-date those of #Khajuraho. This pic shows the state of heritage in our country. More on this site tomorrow.
#MPtrail: This pic was taken from the top of a Chandella water reservoir's stone embankment. The green area on the left was once a large water body. At the far end of the reservoir is a group of temples which date to the 9th century CE. I'll take you there over the weekend.
#MPtrail: A fragile set of temples which, in my view, showcase two varying streams of temple architecture. In Vyas Bhadora, a small village in MP's Chhatarpur dist. Managed by the state archaeological dept. Over a dozen temples built nxt to a Chandella irrigation reservoir.
