Bateshwar Temples: A Glimpse of Ancient Grandeur and Natural Harmony   Nestled amidst the serene beauty of the Morena district in Madhya Pradesh, India, lies a hidden gem of ancient architecture and natural wonder - the Bateshwar Temples. Built by the Gurjara kings between the 8th and 10th centuries, these small yet captivating temples once spanned over 25 acres of land, reflecting the glorious past of India's rich cultural heritage. The Bateshwar Temples were dedicated to three major traditions in Hinduism - Shiva, Vishnu, and Shakti, symbolizing the diverse and harmonious coexistence of these deities in the hearts of the devotees. The intricate carvings on the sandstone walls depict mythological stories, celestial beings, and scenes from daily life during that era, transporting visitors back in time. Tragically, the temples fell victim to the wrath of nature in the 13th century, possibly during a devastating earthquake, reducing the once-flourishing complex to ruins. For cent...

The scientist was killed..............

I had just started learning science in my kinder garten days.  Without understanding much of the subject I would still try to grasp it. Learning things by experimenting was never an option given in schools. Nevertheless I always tried to learn things by experimenting.

my old album.............

The heavenly fragrance of the celibate earth waits for life to be rejuvenated. The first shower of the season brings life to the thirsty earth.  I sit alone, sipping my cup of coffee. And I see the drizzle outside.   My careless beauty reflects on the mirror. Time has taken hold of everything. My innocent eyes now have the glimpse of promise and trust. My loneliness has made me understand my strengths. My fears have turned to challenges. Darkness brings in new light. My eyes fall on to the old personal album that lies between my books and papers untouched. I pull it out in a moment’s impulse.  Childhood days, schooldays, college, friends, and birthdays.............my engagement...........my marriage..........  I let my thoughts flow through me uninterrupted. A sudden furore shattered my world to pieces. I battle out a reason every night. I figure out an explanation every day. It simply remains unanswered. I have treasured the album which barely holds the real picture...
