But if I don't..."Hi: "तो क्या, अरजुन?" मीरा ने तंज कसा।En: "What then, Arjun?" Meera teased.Hi: "अपने नजर को बदलो। कभी-कभी कुछ न पा कर हम बहुत कुछ पा लेते हैं।"En: "Change your perspective. Sometimes, by not finding anything, we find a lot."Hi: राहुल ने सहमति में सिर हिलाया, "हां, दोस्तो, अपनी यात्रा का मज़ा लो।"En: Rahul nodded in agreement, "Yes, friends, enjoy your journey."Hi: ध्यान में खोया अरजुन दो कदम आगे बढा कि तभी उसकी नजरें एक अजीब सी वस्तु पर पड़ी।En: Engrossed in thought, Arjun took two steps forward when his eyes fell on a peculiar object.Hi: यह था एक प्राचीन कलाकृति, कुछ अद्भुत नक्काशी के साथ।En: It was an ancient artifact, adorned with some exquisite carvings.Hi: "यह क्या है?" अरजुन ने अचरज से पूछा।En: "What is this?" Arjun asked in amazement.Hi: मीरा ने जल्दी से तस्वीर ली।En: Meera quickly took a photograph.Hi: लेकिन जांच करने पर, पता चला कि वह वस्तु विशेष रूप से महत्वपूर्ण नहीं थी।En: Upon investigation, it turned out that the object wasn't particularly significant.Hi: फिर भी, इसने उन तीनों को उस जगह के अद्वितीय संस्कृति की याद दिलाई।En: Still, it reminded them of the unique culture of the place.Hi: अंततः, अरजुन ने समझा कि ज्ञान की प्राप्ति का अर्थ कभी-कभी केवल अकादमिक उपलब्धियों से नहीं होता।En: In the end, Arjun realized that the acquisition of knowledge sometimes doesn't solely mean academic achievements.Hi: वे तीनों एक ठोस दोस्ती के साथ घर लौटे, और मीरा ने अपने नए फोटोग्राफी प्रोजेक्ट के लिए प्रेरणा पाई।En: The three returned home with a solid friendship, and Meera found inspiration for her new photography project.Hi: अरजुन ने जीवन में सही संतुलन की नई समझ पाई।En: Arjun gained a new understanding of the right balance in life.Hi: उन्होंने अब महसूस किया कि असली सफलता उन अनुभवों में है, जो उस यात्रा के गवाह बने थे, और जो उनके और उनके दोस्तों के बीच हमेशा रहेंगे।En: He now realized that true success lies in the experiences witnessed during the journey, which would always remain between them and their friends.

Hampi, im Süden Indiens, ist das größte Bouldergebiet der Welt. Und doch kommen kaum Tourist:innen hierher. Oder: Nicht mehr. Denn Hampi erwacht gerade aus einem Dornröschenschlaf, nachdem die indische Regierung vor wenigen Jahren eine wild gewachsene Partystadt mit Bulldozern platt gemacht hat. Was sie beim Bouldern dort erlebt hat, erzählt Bergwelten-Autorin Lena Öller im Interview mit Mara Simperler. Im Podcast-Format „Bergwelten Backstage“ bekommt ihr einen Blick hinter die Kulissen. Wir erzählen, wie wir arbeiten, wie wir uns für Geschichten entscheiden und wer die Menschen hinter Bergwelten sind.

I am so engrossed in the theatrics of my mind that I often forgot that there is a world outside which has been gifted to me to revel in, to find pleasure and meaning in. Getting too intertwined in myself is often the bane of my existence, as I lose purpose in my desperation to resolve the quotidian quibble or the boredom riddle.    Time and again, seeing myself immerse in the labyrinthine issues of daily grind, whilst failing to notice that life is desperately trying to grab my attention, is to also lose a potential way to unravel the knots of my very being.   The times serenity descends on me as I see the water boil for my morning tea, or I stand at the window and watch a flawless sunset find its night, or listen to the cadence of a loved one's voice as they talk of normal things or when the doorbell rings and my heart leaps as I know who it is. Suddenly, priorities get sorted out, issues get resolved.    Later, much later, do I realize that the true path to the universe inside me comes through the vagaries outside, as I cut though the noise, and find that the world is much more then a mere domicile for me for my desires and ambitions, and offers a journey of senses and fulfilments.   Everything I could ever want is merely a question of merging what's outside to what is inside.   If you liked this poem, consider listening to these other poems on mornings and cities  -  Calcutta - A Lover's Epitaph Recalibrating Dawns Musings As I Step Into The Morning (Leaving a Lover Sleeping) Follow me on Instagram at @sunilgivesup.

Hey, Cryptic Cuties, let's take a trip together to some abandoned places of the world. Tales of wealthy towns that prospered and grew but were ultimately left or destroyed. Sometimes we don't even really know, leaving more of an air of mystery. Kelsey takes us to India, and the ruins of Hampi, including impressive structures like the Hemakuta Hill Temple and the Lotus Mahal. Sounds as good as it looks, honestly. On the other side of the world, we head with Alanna back to Pirate territory, and the Jamaican town known as Port Royal. This city had quite a mecca of gambling, rum, women, privateers and a pirate named Jack (and a Captain named Morgan!) Until it met it's dreadful end. And it's other end as they sang, "never shall we die", we hope.

Fluent Fiction - Hindi: Unity Amidst Ancient Ruins: An Unexpected Adventure in Hampi Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.org/unity-amidst-ancient-ruins-an-unexpected-adventure-in-hampi Story Transcript:Hi: कल्पना कीजिए, गर्मी की एक तपती दोपहर में, हंपी के प्राचीन अवशेषों के बीच, जिंदगी और इतिहास आपस में टकरा रहे थे।En: Imagine, on a scorching summer afternoon, amidst the ancient ruins of Hampi, life and history were colliding.Hi: अरुण, मीर और विक्रम उस अनजानी दुनिया में साहसिकता का अनुभव करने निकले थे।En: Arun, Meera, and Vikram had set out to experience adventure in that unknown world.Hi: अरुण का दिल तपिश के साथ धड़कता था, प्रत्येक पुरानी मंदिर की दीवार उसे एक नई कहानी सुनाने को तैयार थी।En: Arun's heart beat with the heat, and each old temple wall seemed ready to tell him a new story.Hi: वहीं, मीर अपनी चिकित्सा के कौशल को आजमाने के लिए तैयार थी और विक्रम, अपनी कैमरा लेकर, सूरज की किरणों में इतिहास को कैद करना चाहता था।En: Meanwhile, Meera was prepared to test her medical skills, and Vikram, with his camera in hand, wanted to capture history in the rays of the sun.Hi: सुबह-सुबह वे तीनों हंपी पहुंचे।En: Early in the morning, they reached Hampi.Hi: वहाँ के विशाल पत्थरों और मंदिरों के कुछ हिस्से अभी भी आकाश को छू रहे थे।En: Some parts of the massive stones and temples were still touching the sky.Hi: जैसे ही सूरज जोर पकड़ने लगा, तापमान भी बढ़ता गया।En: As the sun began to intensify, so did the temperature.Hi: लेकिन विक्रम, जो हमेशा अपनी सीमाओं को परे धकेलता था, फोटो लेने के लिए सबसे ऊँची चट्टान पर चढ़ गया।En: However, Vikram, always pushing his limits, climbed the highest rock to take photos.Hi: कुछ घंटे बीते और गर्मी अपने पूरे जोर पर आ गई।En: A few hours passed, and the heat was at its peak.Hi: विक्रम को अचानक चक्कर आने लगा।En: Suddenly, Vikram started feeling dizzy.Hi: उसकी हालत बिगड़ती गई और वो नीचे गिर पड़ा।En: His condition worsened, and he collapsed.Hi: मीर ने तुरंत स्थिति को भांप लिया और उसकी तरफ दौड़ पड़ी।En: Meera immediately realized the situation and ran towards him.Hi: विक्रम को होश नहीं था और उसकी चहरे पर पसीना बह रहा था।En: Vikram was unconscious, and sweat was dripping down his face.Hi: मीर ने पानी का बोतल उठाया और विक्रम के चेहरे और गर्दन पर पानी छिड़का।En: Meera picked up a water bottle and sprinkled water on Vikram's face and neck.Hi: “अरुण, हमें उसे तुरंत किसी छाँव में ले जाना होगा,” मीर ने चिंतित स्वर में कहा।En: "Arun, we need to get him to some shade immediately," Meera said in a worried tone.Hi: अरुण ने एक पल के लिए सोचा।En: Arun thought for a moment.Hi: “पर मेरी खोज... ये मौका फिर कब मिलेगा?” उसने खुद से पूछा।En: "But my exploration... when will I get this chance again?" he asked himself.Hi: लेकिन मीर की आँखों में देखा और उसे सही रास्ता दिखा।En: But when he looked into Meera's eyes, he found the right path.Hi: अरुण ने अपने विचारों को पीछे छोड़ा और मीर की मदद की।En: Arun set aside his thoughts and helped Meera.Hi: वे विक्रम को एक पुराने मंदिर के छाँव में ले गए।En: They carried Vikram to the shade of an old temple.Hi: मीर ने विक्रम के चेहरे को ठंडे पानी से धोया और उसकी नाड़ी जाँच की।En: Meera washed Vikram's face with cold water and checked his pulse.Hi: “विक्रम अब ठीक हो रहा है,” मीर ने राहत की साँस लेते हुए कहा।En: "Vikram is recovering now," Meera said, taking a breath of relief.Hi: थोड़ी देर में विक्रम ने आँखें खोली और कमजोर स्वर में बोला, “माफ करना दोस्तों, मैंने जोश में होश खो दिया।”En: After a while, Vikram opened his eyes and said in a weak voice, "I'm sorry, friends, I lost my senses in enthusiasm."Hi: अरुण ने उसके कंधे पर हाथ रखा, “हम साथ हैं, बस यही मायने रखता है।”En: Arun placed a hand on his shoulder, "We are together, that's all that matters."Hi: यह सुनकर मीर ने मुस्कान दी और कहा, “हम सब अपना-अपना सपना लेकर आए थे, पर सबसे बड़ी चुनौती ने हमें एक टीम बना दिया।”En: Hearing this, Meera smiled and said, "We all came with our own dreams, but the biggest challenge united us as a team."Hi: उस शाम, विक्रम की हालत सुधरने लगी और वे सभी जल्द से जल्द सुरक्षित स्थान पर लौटे।En: That evening, Vikram's condition improved, and they all returned to a safe place as soon as possible.Hi: अरुण ने जाना कि इंसानों की भलाई सबसे अधिक महत्वपूर्ण है।En: Arun learned that the well-being of humans is the most important.Hi: मीर ने अपनी क्षमता पर विश्वास पाया और विक्रम ने सीखा कि सुरक्षा को कभी भी नज़रअंदाज नहीं करना चाहिए।En: Meera found confidence in her abilities, and Vikram learned never to overlook safety.Hi: और इसी तरह, हंपी के प्राचीन अवशेषों ने सिर्फ इतिहास ही नहीं, इंसानी जज़्बात और संबंधों को भी एक नई दिशा दी।En: And thus, the ancient ruins of Hampi did not just reflect history but also gave a new direction to human emotions and relationships.

We delve into an episode that combines the intrigue of an unsolved mystery with the enduring legacy of one of India's greatest rulers—Sri Krishna Deva Raya.This episode was inspired by an interesting question from a handful of the listeners of this podcast and also something I have seen floating around on the internet forums and comment sections related to Vijayanagara or Sri Krishna Deva Raya.In the heart of Hampi, amidst the grandeur of temples and palaces that once echoed with the sounds of a thriving empire, lies a tantalizing enigma: the lost tomb of Emperor Sri Krishna Deva Raya. His reign, a golden age of prosperity and artistic brilliance, left a monumental legacy, yet the location of his final resting place has eluded historians and adventurers for centuries. Could it be hidden beneath the 64 pillar mandapam in Hampi on the banks of Tungabhadra; a structure whose intricate carvings might conceal the emperor's final resting place?

Dario shares the story of his first vision quest, which expanded his perception of reality and revealed our deep interconnectedness across time and space. He also recounts an elder's tale from his tradition about the origin of light, sparked by curiosity, piercing the darkness. Dario Giuffrida, a psychologist and medicine man, provides both modern and ancient tools and techniques to guide people on journeys of self-discovery and awareness through transformative states of consciousness. In this riveting conversation, we explore Dario's calling and immersion into both ancient traditions and modern science. He emphasizes the intersection of Internal Family Systems (IFS) and ancient traditions, showing how modern and ancient languages can deeply support each other for a profound understanding of our inner and outer systems of life. Despite the differences in language and rituals, the essence of healing is universal. Dario offers words of comfort for our modern world, reminding us that even when we feel disconnected from nature and our ancestral knowledge, our true essence can always be remembered and renewed when we seek to reconnect with our source. | Connect with Dario: https://linktr.ee/dario_hampi_pakari |  Fuoco Sacro: https://fuocosacro.org/en/  Sumak Kawsay: https://sumakawsay.org/  FINO: https://www.fino.website/ | Palehorse Offerings | Apparel, Prints, Guided Meditation & Oracle Art http://seekersoftheeternal.com/

Obacht! Ein Minigolf Notfall steht an! Es sprechen: Dave Striegel als Bruno und Thomas Hegglin als Hampi.

Hörður Ægisson og Stefán Einar Stefánsson ræða um hlutabréfamarkað í ládeyðu, flókna stöðu Marel og það hvort að verið sé að skortselja félagið, erfiðleika þingmanna við að eiga vildarpunkta, um verkalýðsleiðtoga sem eru ekki takt við félagsmenn sína, gagnrýni formanns Samfylkingarinnar á skattalækkanir fyrir tekjulága, afslátt við sölu á hlut í Hampiðjunni, litla framleg matvöruverslana, ríkisstyrk til rafmagnsbílaeigenda og margt fleira.

Verslunarmiðstöðin Kringlan var opnuð í Reykjavík þann 13.ágúst 1987 og við rifjuðum upp hvernig þessir fyrstu dagar í Kringlunni gengu fyrir sig með fyrsta framkvæmdastjóra Kringlunnar Ragnari Atla Guðmundssyni viðskiptafræðingi sem var lokkaður í starfið frá Hampiðjunni hvar hann starfaði áður. Þetta stóð í Helgarpóstinum árið 1987 þann 27.ágúst: Kringlan er verslunarmiðstöð af þeirri gerð sem kallast MALL á ensku. Skipulagið er þannig að tvær stórar verslanir, sem fullvíst er að muni laða til sín mikinn fjölda viðskiptavina, eru settar í sitt hvorn enda. Í þessu tilfelli er um að ræða Hagkaup sem leggur undir sig norðurendann og BYKO sem fyllir þann syðri. Við hittum Ragnar í Kringlunni á 36 ára afmæli Kringlunnar. Guðjón Helgi Ólafsson sendi okkur fyrsta vinkil eftir sumarfrí í dag. Í þetta sinn bar hann vinkilinn að því sem hann kallar þvælingi og þvottavél. Guðjón útskýrði það betur í vinklinum í dag. Svo var það lesandi vikunnar, sem hóf aftur göngu sína á mánudögum í þættinum. Í dag var það Margrét Kjartansdóttir, lögfræðingur og samskiptastjóri hjá Úrvinnslusjóði, sem sagði okkur frá því hvað hún hefur verið að lesa undanfarið og hvaða bækur og höfundar hafa haft mest áhrif á hana í gegnum tíðina.

Hörður Ægisson og Stefán Einar Stefánsson ræða um bann við hvalveiðum, skrýtna umræðu um orkumál, stöðuna í súru ríkisstjórnarsamstarfi og annað það helsta í pólitíkinni. Þá tökum við stöðuna á sameiningu VÍS og Fossa, fjöllum um útboð Hampiðjunnar og af hverju Gildi er ekki á lista yfir hluthafa, bílastæðamál við Leifsstöð, stöðuna í áfengissölu og margt fleira.

Við skelltum í upptöku á Arlanda flugvelli í Stokkhólmi og kveðjum Svíþjóð í bili. Hörður Ægisson og Stefán Einar Stefánsson ræða um væntanlegar aðgerðir ríkisstjórnarinnar við verðbólgu, launahækkanir æðstu ráðamanna, hlutafjárútboð Hampiðjunnar og fleira.

Við forvitnumst um endurvinnslu á veiðarfærum í Samfélaginu í dag. Hampiðjan sendir árlega nokkur mikið magn af veiðarfærum sem ekki eru lengur ?notkun úr landi í endurvinnslu. Þetta eru að miklu leyti veiðarfæri úr nælonefnum en líka málmar og gúmmí. Georg Haney er, umhverfisstjóri Hampiðjunnar segir okkur betur frá þessu. Þegar krabbameinsmeðferð lýkur gera sjúklingar og aðstandendur oft ráð fyrir að heilsan verði aftur eins og hún var áður en krabbameinið greindist. Það er þó ekki raunin hjá öllum. Margir búa við andlegar og líkamlegar aukaverkanir af völdum krabbameinsins eða meðferðarinnar sem geta haft mikil áhrif á líðan fólks. Krabbameinsfélagið vill taka betur utan um þennan hóp og við ræðum við sérfræðing hjá þeim, Vigdísi Guðmundsdóttur, um áskoranir þessa hóps og hvaða eftirfylgni þau þurfa. Bryndís Marteinsdóttir flytur okkur svo umhverfispistil í lok þáttar.

कर्नाटक के हम्पी क्षेत्र को आज भी किष्किन्धा के नाम से जाना जाता है। यह एक समय में सुग्रीव की राजधानी हुआ करती थी, जहाँ राम और लक्ष्मण, सीता को ढूंढ़ते-ढूंढ़ते पहुँचे। वसंत ऋतु में पाम्पा सरोवर की सुंदरता देख, सीता के विरह में राम और भी दुखी हुए। राम को भावुक देख, लक्षमण उन्हें अपने मन पर नियंत्रण रखने की सलाह देने लगे। पर दोनों भाइयों की बातचीत के दौरान सुग्रीव उन्हें तीर्व द्रिष्टि से देख रहे थे। सुग्रीव को संदेह था कि उनके बड़े भाई बाली ने, हानि पहुँचाने के लिए, इन दोनों अजानुबाहू मनुष्यों को किष्किन्धा भेजा था। जब सुग्रीव ने अपने साथी वानरों को ये बात बताई, तब कपि हनुमान ने सुग्रीव से क्या कहा? और फिर, मिलकर, उन दोनों ने राम और लक्षमण को परख़ने की क्या तरक़ीब लगाई? आइये जानतें हैं रामायण आज के लिए के इस episode में।

In this revisited episode, I'm speaking with Dr. Kanniks Kannikeswaran, an internationally renowned music composer, educator and scholar known for his sustained contribution to music and community for the past 25 years. We talk about his incredible work on the soundtrack of Shadow Realm, a podcast project based on a young adult fantasy fiction book that I wrote. Dr. Kanniks shares how his imagination was instantly captivated by the vivid literary descriptions and how he utilized Sanskrit chants, an ancient language of India, to musically portray different characters. We also talk about the inspiration he found from his travels to the ancient village of Hampi, India. The latter part of the episode showcases Dr. Kanniks' work as we listen to Episode 8 of Shadow Realm and hear a portion of Arya's story.   IN THIS EPISODE:  [00:01] Kanniks Kannikeswaran introduced   [02:02] Purpose of The True Fiction Project  [03:12] His process of writing music   [10:50] Explaining lyrics and Sanskrit  [13:40] The Medicine Woman  [16:55] Rishiji's Theme  [25:57] Where to find the music  [28:30] Episode 8 of Shadow Realm  [29:03] The Vanar's theme  [39:06] Rishiji's theme     KEY TAKEAWAYS:  Shadow Realm is a young adult fantasy fiction story about Arya, a 15 year old boy who fell through a fault and finds himself in the land of the Ramayana. He has to fight demons in this mythical world in order to get back home to save his mom and tackle demons in his ordinary world  Dr. Kanniks' main inspiration came from his travels to the ancient village of Hampi in India  The vanar represent the prehistoric people descended from old world tribes, best translated as monkeys or monkey people  For the “Vanar March,” Dr. Kanniks used Sanskrit chants to create a joyful chant to go along with the vanar as they joyfully frolic and jump around  For “Rishiji's Theme,” Dr. Kanniks used the pentatonic scale, most commonly known for meditation, to create a serene humming that captures the magic and mysteriousness of the mystical mentor  The Medicine Woman is a representation of a source of wisdom for us all  Dr. Kanniks created a total of 14 tracks to complement the podcast project which is now available on Apple Music, Spotify, and other streaming platforms.     BIO:  Dr. Kanniks Kannikeswaran, an internationally renowned music composer, educator and scholar is known for his sustained contribution to music and community for the past 25 years.

His composition ‘Mahavakya' was performed at the historic reception accorded to Prime Minister Narendra Modi at Madison Square Gardens in 2014.

In this episode, I explained the mystery behind the musical pillars of the Vittala Temple in Hampi. Hampi is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, owing to the ancient temples, forts, and other monuments. In the episode, I also share the architecture, art, and mystery of the Vittala temple

Yantrodharaka Hanuman Stotram is a composition by Sri Vyasarajatheertha, or Vyasaraja, a famous Madhva saint, who is supposedly the previous avatar of Sri Raghavendra Swamy. Vyasaraja was the Rajaguru to the Vijayanagara emperor, Krishna Devaraya, and 5 other rulers of Vijayanagara.

Histories of art in India never fail to mention the greatest hits: Mughal miniatures, Chola bronzes, the ruins of Hampi. Yet most artworks—not just in India but around the world—are not celebrated masterpieces like these; rather, many are blends and montages, mixtures of materials and methods, styles that can't be easily classified; made by artists who are anonymous or not widely known. Where's the history of these arts? A new monograph by Holly Shaffer, Assistant Professor of Art and Architecture at Brown University, shines a light on this theme in colonial India: it's called Grafted Arts: Art Making and Taking in the Struggle for Western India; 1760-1910 (Yale University Press 2022) This remarkable book looks at Maratha military rulers and British East India Company officials who used the arts to engage in diplomacy, wage war, compete for prestige, and generate devotion. Shaffer uses the idea of “graft” in the sense of grafting one plant to another, to produce something new; but also in the sense of cheating or corruption. She highlights the remarkable people and relationships that make up the grafted arts—unknown artists making works for hire, rulers using art for propaganda and prestige, patrons supporting and plundering artworks; officials making a profit through collecting—not to mention an unexpected cameo from William Blake! So we invite you to enter into a visual frame of mind and listen to this conversation.

In this episode, I talked about one of the most beautiful temples of India i.e. Vittala Temple in Hampi. Hampi is a UNESCO World Heritage Site, owing to the ancient temples, forts, and other monuments. In the episode, I share the architecture, art, and mystery of the Vittala temple.

This week, The Musafir Stories speaks to podcaster Keshave Chaturvedi as he takes us on a temple trail across North Karnataka!Today's destination: Badami, Aihole and Pattadakal, KarnatakaNearest Airport: Hubballi Airport - HBXNearest Railway Station: Badami Railway Station (BDM)Prerequisites - N/APacking - Pack light clothes, as it is hot most of the yearTime of the year - Winter (November to Jan) and monsoons (June to Aug) are ideal time to visitLength of the itinerary: 3-4 daysItinerary Highlights: Kehsav takes us on a whirlwind tour across the Northern part of Karnataka on a temple trail. The pit stops include the Badami cave temples, Aihole and Pattadakal. We start with Badami, discovering the rock cut cave temples built during the 4-5th century CE by the Badami Chalukyas as they established their political capital in Badami. The cave temples consist of 4 main caves - 3 Hindu and 1 Jain cave that have some finely sculpted temples. Keshav talks through the significance of each of these cave temples as well as subtle differences. There is Cave 5, which is a relatively newer cave that is closer to the Agastya lake and Bhootnath temple and is unique for its representation of the deities Besides the cave temples, Badami also has a mosque that was likely built during the Adil Shahi sultanate. The town is also a popular hot spot for bouldering among the local and international community. Aihole was considered to be the cultural capital of the Chalukyas and is situated a few kms away from Badami. It is considered to be the cradle of Indian temple architecture due to the sheer diversity and number of temples found here. There are over 100 temples in the main complex including Hindu, Jain and Buddhist temples. THe main temples include the Durga temple, Lad Khan temple, Gaudargudi temple and the Ravan Pahadi caves. Other important temples include Ambigergudi temples complex, Jyotirlinga temples complex, Mallikarjuna temples complex, Ramalinga temples group, Veniyar shrines complex, Maddin temples group, Triyambakeshvara temples group, Kuntigudi complex. Finally, Pattadakal came into prominence between the 7th and 8th century CE and was considered as the place of coronation of the Chalukya Kings. It is often referred to as a harmonious blend of architecture styles from North and South India. The main temples include - Kadasiddheshwara temple (Nagara/North Indian style), Jambulingeshwara temple, Galaganatha Temple, Chandrashekhara Temple, Sangameshwara Temple (dravidian/vimana style), Kashi Vishwanatha Temple (rekhanagara), Virupaksha Temple (dravidian/vimana), Jain Narayana TempleLinks:Keshav's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/keshavchaturvedi9/Keshav's Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/keshav.chaturvedi.37Keshav's podcast - https://shows.ivmpodcasts.com/show/tedhe-medhe-raaste-8nsu-Rh7epsqeWjEL8yjlFollow the Musafir stories on:Twitter : https://twitter.com/musafirstories?lang=enFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/themusafirstories/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/musafirstoriespodcast/?hl=enwebsite: www.themusafirstories.comemail: themusafirstories@gmail.comYou can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the IVM Podcasts app on Android: https://ivm.today/android or iOS: https://ivm.today/ios, or any other podcast app.You can check out our website at https://shows.ivmpodcasts.com/featuredDo follow IVM Podcasts on social media.We are @IVMPodcasts on Facebook, Twitter, & Instagram.https://twitter.com/IVMPodcastshttps://www.instagram.com/ivmpodcasts/?hl=enhttps://www.facebook.com/ivmpodcasts/Follow the show across platforms:Spotify, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, JioSaavn, Gaana, Amazon MusicDo share the word with you folks!

Abby in her own words:   “Growing up, the outdoors wasn't a place I spent much time, unless you count doing all nighters in the park guzzling Bacardi Breezers and shivering into my Jane Norman parka as a teenager.   It wasn't a place I felt I belonged. I hated exercise and actively avoided it at all costs, so much so, I'd hide in the showers to bunk PE lessons.   During lockdown, my dad gave me his 23 year old mountain bike and I set myself a challenge to cycle the distance from John O' Groats to Lands End around my hometown to keep myself from melting into the sofa.   I LOVED it! I felt strong and alive as I whooshed through the isolated streets. Is this what it felt like to enjoy exercise? Had I finally found 'my sport'? 300 miles in, I discovered an enormous Ovarian Tumour.    2 weeks later I was having surgery and my virtual cycle adventure was paused.   The tumour turned out to be a rare form of Ovarian Cancer. I was lucky, it hadn't spread to other organs which meant surgery was all I needed, however, I discovered the dire stats surrounding Ovarian Cancer and feeling lucky to be alive, I wanted to do something to raise awareness and vital funds for the disease.   I decided to cycle John O' Groats to Lands End for real, but this time, I'd make it as fun and spicy as possible. I strapped my gear to the bike and headed for an off road route following GB Divide and Great North Trail. I'd be camping most nights and carrying everything I needed.   I didn't train, I didn't even cycle much before I left, I just had blind faith that if I pedalled one foot at a time I'd eventually get there.”   ***   New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast go live every Tuesday at 7am UK time - Hit the subscribe button so you don't miss out.    You can support the mission to increase the amount of female role models in the media.

I have written about Lord Rama, His date of birth verified, places visited by Him and about the weapons used by Him, His dropping atom bomb and many ore articles including his lineage. I have recently written on his footprints found in India .They are found in Chitrakoot, Rameswaram Rama Pada(Rama's feet) and Hampi in Karnataka among other places. His feet imprint measures, ‘Foot prints found are eleven inches by five inches and ten inches by four and half inches. It resembles to the foot wearing sandals made of wood.' A reader asked me whether it is possible to measure one's height from Footprints. Yes, one can. The Ratio is 6.6 is to 1. This is based on a footprint without wearing footwear. Calculation may be made allowing for one wearing Footwear based on Formula provided below. On this basis, Rama,s height is 11* 6.6 = 72.6 “( in Inches)  Or. 6'15 (foot by cms) There is a view that based on The size of Shiva Dhanus (Bow) broken by Rama in Sita's Swayamvara, Rama's Height could have been  around Four to four and  a half feet. But Rama's height is proved by His foot print as 6.6″ .more at https://ramanisblog.in/2016/08/03/lord-rama-height-six-feet-six-inches-footprint-verified/ --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/ramanispodcast/message
