Incredible India: A Journey Through Spirituality, Temples, and the World’s Oldest Civilization

India, one of the world’s most ancient civilizations, offers a rich tapestry of spirituality, history, and culture. Known as the land where traditions and faith have flourished for millennia, India is home to countless temples, each narrating stories of devotion, art, and architectural brilliance. From the towering spires of Varanasi's Kashi Vishwanath to the intricate carvings of Khajuraho, these temples stand as sacred spaces where spirituality meets artistry.

India's spiritual landscape is unparalleled—whether through the teachings of ancient texts like the Vedas and Upanishads or the paths of yoga and meditation, India's contribution to spiritual thought is immense. The civilization that began on the banks of the Indus River has evolved into a vibrant society, preserving its timeless heritage while embracing modernity.

Incredible India invites travellers and seekers to explore this timeless spiritual journey, where every corner holds a connection to the divine and every temple tells the story of human aspirations toward peace, wisdom, and enlightenment.

A special MP/MLA court in Varanasi on Wednesday sentenced gangster-turned-politician Mukhtar Ansari to life imprisonment in a 36-year-old fake arms licence case.

Delhi: At the launch of the book 'Waiting For Shiva', Advocate Vishnu Shankar Jain says, "...There are continuous attempts made by the members of the Muslim community who are going to offer 'namaz' there every day. They are coming in large numbers over the said cellar so that the roof can be demolished (collapsed) and in turn, the 'pooja' can be stopped. So these are the attempts made by the members of the Muslim community. We have filed an application before the district judge of Varanasi wherein we have asked that the namazis must be restricted so far as their entry is concerned over the roof of the cellar. Apart from that, the repair work must be conducted in the said cellar so that the 'pooja' which has been ordered by the court can go on without any hindrance..."

#WATCH | Prime Minister Narendra Modi presents awards to the winners of Saansad Sanskrit Competition, in Varanasi, Uttar Pradesh.

CM Yogi Adityanath is also present at the event.

PM Narendra Modi will inaugurate the BAPS Swaminarayan temple in Abu Dhabi, the first Hindu temple in the Gulf nation.

#BAPSHinduMandir
Interesting Facts!
A Muslim king donated land for a Hindu Mandir, where the lead architect is a Catholic Christian, the project manager a Sikh, the foundational designer a Buddhist, the construction company a Parsi group, and the director comes from the Jain tradition.

Spread over 27 acres, the temple complex is on 13.5 acres, with a parking area of 13.5 acres that can accommodate around 1,400 cars and 50 buses. The 13.5 acres of land was gifted by Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the President of the UAE in 2019.
Dimensions-

Among the key architectural features are 96 bells and gaumukhs installed around the path leading to the temple. These 96 bells are a tribute to Pramukh Swami Maharaj’s 96 years of life.

Nano tiles have been used, to comfort for visitors to walk on even in the hot weather.

Height - 108 ft
Length - 262 ft
Width - 180 ft

Exterior - Pink sandstone from Rajasthan
Interior - Italian marbles.

A total of 20,000 tonnes of stones and marble was shipped in 700 containers for the temple.

More than Rs 700 crore was spent on the construction.
Lord Ram, Sita, Lakshman and Hanuman, Lord Shiv, Parvati, Ganpati, Kartikeya, Lord Jagannath, Lord Radha-Krishna, Akshar-Purushottam Maharaj (Bhagwan Swaminarayan and Gunatitanand Swami), Tirupati Balaji and Padmavati and Lord Ayappa have been featured in the temple.

The seven shikhars are representative of the seven Emirates of the UAE.

The temple also has some special features, like a ‘holy river’ surrounding it, for which waters from Ganga and Yamuna have been brought in. The river Saraswati has been depicted in the form of white light. A Varanasi-like ghat has been created where the ‘Ganga’ passes.

A Wall of Harmony, one of the largest 3D-printed walls in the UAE, features a video showcasing key milestones of the temple’s construction.

The word ‘harmony’ has been written in 30 different ancient and modern languages.

Apart from 15 value tales from Indian civilisation, stories from the Maya civilisation, Aztec civilisation, Egyptian civilisation, Arabic civilisation, European civilisation, Chinese civilisation and African civilisation have been depicted.

Other amenities include an assembly hall with a capacity of 3,000 people, a community centre, exhibitions, classrooms, and a majlis venue.
