20. POSTCARDS [ISKCON TEMPLE Bengaluru]

In 1977, Madhu Pandit Dasa opened a temple of ISKCON in Bangalore as a part of expansion initiatives of ISKCON in Southern India. 

ISKCON Bangalore was built on Hare Krishna Hill in Rajaji Nagar. It's one of the largest ISKCON temples in the world. It's known for its celebration of festivals like Rama Navami, Janmashtami, Ratha Yatra, Jhulan, Gaura Purnima and few others festivals related to the avatar of Lord Vishnu or with Vedic Culture. 

The temple has a streamlined process to funnel them through in an efficient manner, this winds you through a variety of opportunities to purchase all sorts of items. I did buy a few things and I ate food in the canteen. The food was nice, but nothing special. As with many temples, there is a shoe checkpoint at the beginning. Larger bags are not allowed either, so must be checked when you enter also. Same thing with cameras, they stay in the bag which is why I could not take many pictures.

These are the postcards from the same place :)

Thank you, everyone, for stopping by :) 
and
I hope you all have a good day :)

18. RANDOM CLICKS #3 Flowers #2

Once when I went to my village, my neighbors managed to have all the flowers on the plant. The plant looked really beautiful with all the flowers on it.

When I searched for these plants, I came to know that these flowers are called Oleander.

Oleander has historically been considered a poisonous plant because some of its compounds may exhibit toxicity, especially to animals, when consumed in large amounts.

Oleander poisoning occurs when someone eats the flowers or chews the leaves or stems of the oleander plant, or its relative, the yellow oleander.

So, if we have these plants at home, we better be careful especially if we have children and pets at our home.

Thank you for stopping by :)

I hope you all have a good day :)

We, at our home, perform puja with different kinds of flowers.

When my dad brought red roses once, I was just fascinated by one took some random pictures.

The flower looked beautiful with leaves on one side :)

I was not able to do justice to its beauty. 

Thank you, everyone, for stopping by

16. BUDDHA STATUE

The Buddha Statue of Hyderabad is the world's tallest monolith of Gautama Buddha.

 N. T. Rama Rao during his tenure chose to depict Gautama Buddha because "he was a humanitarian who told the whole truth to the people. It is our pride." 

For over a year, hundreds of laborers helped the temple architect and builder S.M.Ganapathi Sthapati created the statue. After five years and the expenditure of US$3 million, the statue stood at 58 feet (18 m) and weighed 350 tons, making it the world's tallest monolithic statue of the Buddha.

This statue is located at Lumbini Park in the Hussain Sagar Island can be reached by boat in 15 minutes.

It is one of the main tourist attractions in Hyderabad, Telangana.

Visiting at the night time gives anyone the best experience with the lights and full moon. There is laser show as well for enjoyment of the tourists but we need to be there on time :) This is really a good place to spend with your family and friends :)

Thank you, everyone, for stopping by 
and 
I hope you all have a good day :)
