| Introduction Hindus did a lot of experimentation. Mandir was the laboratory at
one time where people could go in and experiment with meditation, with mantra chanting and
so on.
Different mandirs were sites of different experiments and
experiences.
A shiva temple has a different discipline than that of the
Dakshineswari temple in Calcutta.
A Jaina temple has different locations (often on
mountains-away from water) than a Vishwanath temple which is on the banks of Ganga.
Some people claim that the Vishwnath temple we see is not
the real Vishwanath temple. |
