Hey! Isn't that Vishnu's bed?


Star Signs.

I've very little idea about Western and Indian astrology but I thought that these stone carvings of star signs on the walls of the Shaneeshwara Temple were different from what we usually see in Deccan temples. It stands out like the stained glass work at the Mangeshi Temple in Goa. Something different. This temple seems to be new, very popular and prosperous too. Shaneeshwara or Saturn is supposed to be one of the most powerful gods in Indian mythology.

After Ganesha, Shani is probably the most popular Hindu deity in the city. Even though there aren't many large temples dedicated to him, he's everywhere on Benglur streets, especially in the crowded market areas. If you have seen small shrines with bright painting of a God sitting on a crow, you have spotted him.

12th Main, 3rd Block, Rajajinagar

Waiting for our Masala Dose at MTR, Rajajinagar 3rd Block. It usually takes more than just moments to be served at any MTR. The wait, it's worth it.

Like Bangalore Autodrivers I can only take you to places I like to go.
