The softness of Your quiet voice

penetrates my spirit with utmost clarity -

For being drawn to you

comes more than naturally.

 

The constant woes of earthly cares

lack all meaning and worth

when I'm consumed by Your presence

and experience my spiritual rebirth.

 

Despite the magnificent beauty

of this planet's garden fields,

I would willingly exchange it

for the brilliance that Heaven yields.

 

Since I'm captivated by The Light,

being drawn to You is... the sweetest of delights.

Lovely #LotusMahal - Recreational arena for royal ladies of #Vijaynagara #empire

 

Symmetrically structured & deftly designed to resemble an open #Lotus #bud, it is incorporated with an exclusive cooling system that made sweltering summers pleasant

 

Among the few lucky structures unscathed by enemy attacks was also called Kamal Mahal or Chitragani Mahal

Shimla is the capital of the northern Indian state of Himachal Pradesh, in the Himalayan foothills. Once the summer capital of British India, it remains the terminus of the narrow-gauge Kalka-Shimla Railway, completed in 1903. It’s also known for the handicraft shops that line The Mall, a pedestrian avenue, as well as the Lakkar Bazaar, a market specializing in wooden toys and crafts.

Framing in Photography

 

Jalakandeswarar Temple - Situated inside the Vellore Fort, this temple boasts of a majestic Gopuram (tower). Here Lord Shiva is worshipped in the form of "Jalakandeswarar". The temple is located at sub-ground levels than the temple moat, hence the name Jalakandeswarar.

Qutab Minar, is a minaret and "victory tower" that forms part of the Qutb complex, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in the Mehrauli area of Delhi, India. Qutb Minar was 73-metres (239.5 feet) tall before the final, fifth section was added after 1369. The tower tapers, and has a 14.3 metres (47 feet) base diameter, reducing to 2.7 metres (9 feet) at the top of the peak. It contains a spiral staircase of 379 steps.

#ExploringIndia

 

Going down the memory lane, I remember visiting this rocky town called Ramanagara, which is popular for many reasons. Firstly, the city has a unique landscape of granite hills, stretching 50 kms, dating back to lower Proterozoic Era. Secondly, the place is a trekkers paradise. The hilly landscape and the wide open spaces of relatively untouched nature makes Ramanagara a beautiful escape. Finally, this is the place, where the legendary movie-‘Sholey’ was made, entirely.

#EnvironmentDay 2018 👍

 

The path to a pollution-free #environment is daunting but certainly doable.

 

Enjoy exotic views as you tread the rocky hill leading to upper Shivalaya & lower Shivalaya #temples in #Badami.

Brilliance of biggest open-air #laundromat adds a breath of fresh air to the environs.

 

Dhobi ghat dazzles due to the daily drudgery of 20 hours put in by 7000 odd #washermen, who whip-scrub-wash-dye-bleach-press around 100,000 clothes.

 

Despite changeover to mechanical washing, the manual flogging is still a preferred choice and a source of living for the hard-working #dhobis in #Mumbai

What more can you ask for after a soul-soothing #worship at the grandiose Lord Shiva statue #temple at Murudeshwara.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

After spiritual nourishment for the soul, this splendid #shoreline is feast for your eyes. Bejeweled & brilliantly lit up on a bright Monday noon.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hard to take your eyes off this stunning #landscape.

 

It becomes super-spectacular the moment you perch yourself on the 19th floor of imposing #gopura guarding the statue.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

No wonder why devotees as well as day-trippers come in large numbers to this #picturesque #fishing #village for pilgrimage plus pleasure.

 

Vibrant in looks the striped tiger #butterfly with tawny #wings can escape death from #predators due to nauseating #smell caused by its distasteful diet of #nectar from poisonous #plants

Sitting amongst the clouds, away from the noise of the cities. Everything looks so spectacularly clean and the wind feels so nourishing, it’s hard to even imagine going back from here.

This great mosque of Old Delhi is the largest in India, with a courtyard capable of holding 25,000 devotees. It was begun in 1644 and ended up being the final architectural extravagance of Shah Jahan, the Mughal emperor who built the Taj Mahal and the Red Fort.

Sparklingly lit up for 69th Republic Day celebrations, the #beauty of #MumbaiCST Chatrapati Shivaji Maharaj #Terminus is a feast to the eyes.

You get luckier if more number of #flowers grow on this #thorny #EuphorbiaMilii #houseplant #blooming all #year round.

 

Even if you occasionally forget #watering, it is easier to grow the #CrownOfThorns, often referred to as the #ChristThorn or #Christ #Plant

"Towards a glorious future after 67 years of Post independence struggle"

#simplyctsk

 

Every country as an independent entity from Imperialism or suppression goes through this phase when it tries to stabilise, organise, administrate, change, develop it's economy, resources, capacity and livelihood. India as a country, as for my Economic studies has just recovered that stage and rapidly stepping up. I wish it grows to a greater extent where I can boast off to anyone outside my country saying - "yes, I was born there!" It has always driven me like various others and continues to.

 

I wanted to post this on the #IndependenceDay but my work pulled me with it's busy claws Why bother about time, anyways. I'll be proud all the time.

Symmetry is spellbinding, rather than soothing when it is God’s creation.

 

Zebra striped #leaf roller #moth takes a breather relishing bright sunshine on a brilliant Sunday morning at the Tungareshwar #wildlife reserve near #Mumbai.

 

Classified as #insects in the #family Tortricidae, they often develop & feed within rolled up #leaves & hence the name #LeafRoller

Can you spot an alien-like #spider camouflaged & compacted perfectly with tree trunk, ready for its next kill.

 

Two long #spinnerets at rear give him the name #TwoTailedSpider

 

Escaping from predator’s clutches, the danaid #eggfly was feasting on #LantanaCamara #flowers 🌸
