Intriguing. Wonder how this belief started. Locking out the bad..? Nice pic, as always.
amazing.... dont lock ur ideas anymore, open ur door. let us hear more from u.ur pictures really speak. and i love them.
this is a popular 'rite'. at the Angala Parameswari Temple on Magadi Road, near the main sanctum there's a huge idol in front of which people put a lock on the grill and throw the key into the Hundi. I saw the same thing at another temple during our recent temple trip.
Very very interesting!
Interesting.. Never heard of this before..
And don't tell me; just out of shot there's a little man selling padlocks: 100 rupees each...
Nice photo and I hadn't heard of that ritual.
how do i get to this place?? id love to visit!!
