of Temples and such...

Ok I was thinking today that it was time to tell my tales of Nagpur. On the return from Tadoba Notion Park I had the pleasure of getting a tour of the city by people that live in it. It was an amazing city. I got a few shots of it from higher up which I will try and post on this blog. If it is there you know that it worked. Over the course of my visit to the park and the tour of the country side I got to know my host quite well. So while we were in the city I requested of him to take me to his temple. So not only is Nagpur the center of India but it is know for the most people converted at one time. It happened in 1956 were around 3 million Hindus converted to Buddhism. My host was one of the ones that converted. It was and amazing story to hear. So he being the good host that he was and oh so eager to show me his temple took me there which is one of the largest free standing domes in India. It was amazing and being the fact that he is part of that temple and all and is active in it he got me into the center of the dome. This is a pretty big thing since all the people just touring it have to see the dome from the outside windows. I however got to stand right in the middle of the dome. It had some amazing acoustics. I took this advantage to pray for India. First for the freedom of the country and second as I was in the middle of India that God would send out his forces like waves around the country. It was a truly amazing thing for me. I also got to visit a few Hindu temples as well and was able to pray through them as well. There is a huge difference between the two types of temples. All in all it was amazing to see both styles of temples and I know that there will be many more that will be visited before my trip is over.

I have added 3 pictures to this blog the first picture is of Nagpur the city, the second is of the temple in Nagpur (I can't remember the name of it), and lastly a picture from Todoba Nation Park. Hope that you enjoy. Hope that the pictures show up. :) Ok I think that the photos did not work sorry the connection is really slow!!
