Thanks for sharing, I like both sites, of course I have been interested in Mohenjo-Daro for decades. But even more so, I enjoyed going through the Temple Reviews site, very nice.

What is the background of this site? Are you an administrator of sorts for either? I noticed the "Contact" section of the Temple Review site has the information in what appears to be Italian (or Latin?) and the address is in San Francisco. Do you know anything about this?

Thanks!

Namaste Shivafan,
I own the Temple-Review site. It is in the baby phase and hence you can see Latin on the contact. Those text are used like Lorem Ipsum and is just a fill in the blank a random text. I live in the USA. That site is dedicated for temple reviews and travelogues for temples.
I was searching for sending a link on Harappa in vain. A professor from Oklahoma has nearly deciphered (more accepted). I think that site is down. That clearly explains why we worship sarasvati as goddess of education. The whole vedas and upanishad was evolved around the river sarasvati and we worship her as Goddess of knowledge.
Also, you are the Shiva fan . Shiva was called Radara as they could not write Rudra and as was not evolved completely. I will post that link if I could find that.
Namaskara,
Murali

You are doing a wonderful job on the Temple Review website. You say it is in the "baby phase" but there is already so much well organized content.

Two temples that seem to call me to come is Meenakshi Temple which you have already nicely included in your listing, and there is another that beckons me which is the Chidambaram Templein Tamil Nadu, residence of Lord Nataraj which you must add to your listing!

I want to register with your site, and hope everyone takes advantage of it to add Comments and Travelogue information.

Aryanmurali:

I must say thank you for those websites. The Temple-Review site is amazing. Lots of interesting information. I hope more people will take the time to browse through its contents and maybe contribute information.


ShivaFan:

Not to undermine the significance of Aryanmurali's sites, but thank you for the Chidambaram one. My family has a long-standing connection to that temple so I'm researching about it too.

Namaste aryanmurali,


Yes thank you very much for posting, a real pleasure to brows.
Its fantastic to read about our early civilisation.
I imagine such long periods of stability and harmony; such a "civil" thought.

Dear ShivaFan,
You are a true inspirer from the beginning. I had not seen your comments here about the Chidambaram temple I have visited most temples in Tamilnadu. All of them are amazing. Only one similar temple exists in Karnataka that I know. That is in Hiriyur. That is Chola temple too.
By the way I own around 2000 chola coins . You can see them in http://www.Vishman.com
I will add Chidambaram temple.
Regards,

I also collect ancient Indian and Indian States coins as well as British occupy period. You have a fantastic collection!

In your Halebidu article, you have a wonderful photo of Nandi that I think should be shared with others:
