A naishtika brahmacharini is one who has committed to a lifetime of sanyas but who is in the zone of practicing the 4 tattvas through living the tattvas and completing in the situations of non-integrity with the tattvas. She is given the sacred kavi (saffron robe) by the SPH during the sanyas initiation.
A naishtika brahmacharini should train to become the Peethadheeshwar (spiritual head) or Sri Mahant (administrative head) of an aadheenam/ defacto spiritual embassy of Kailasa.
A naishtika brahmacharini should be physically, emotionally and psychologically independent of her pre-monastic relations.
A naishtika brahmacharini takes the sacred kavi (saffron robes) from the feet of the SPH. This is symbolic of her commitment to remain in the highest space of the 4 tattvas, and completing whenever she falls from the space of the 4 tattvas.

The Kailasa temple in Ellora blows your mind away with its sheer scale and elegance. And it's not just the individual sculptures inside the temple, the roof has its own share of intricate carvings. 1500 years ago, stone artists were skilled enough to depict motion in stone. Pictured here is a lion on its prey, symbolizing both the strength of the faith that moved mountains and build this gargantuan temple as well as valor of the king who funded the temple.
Roof of Kailasa temple, Ellora.
The Kailasa temple (also written Kailāsa, Kailash and Kailasanatha temple) is a famous rock cut monument, one of the 34 monasteries and temples known collectively as the Ellora Caves, extending over more than 2 km, that were dug side by side in the wall of a high basalt cliff in the complex located at Ellora, Maharashtra, India. Of these, the Kailasa (cave 16) is a remarkable example of Dravidian architecture on account of its striking proportion, elaborate workmanship, architectural content, and sculptural ornamentation of rock-cut architecture. The temple was commissioned and completed between dated 757-783 CE, when Krishna I ruled the Rashtrakuta dynasty. It is designed to recall Mount Kailash, the home of Lord Shiva. It is a megalith carved out of one single rock. It was built in the 8th century by the Rashtrakuta king Krishna I.
GROUND PLAN OF THE TEMPLE
The Kailasa Temple is notable for its vertical excavation—carvers started at the top of the original rock, and excavated downward. The traditional methods were rigidly followed by the master architect which could not have been achieved by excavating from the front.
It is estimated that about 400,000 tons of rocks were scooped out over hundreds of years to construct this monolithic structure. From the chisel marks on walls of this temple, archeologists could conclude that three types of chisels were used to carve this temple.
All the carvings are at more than one level. A two-storeyed gateway opens to reveal a U-shaped courtyard. The courtyard is edged by a columned arcade three stories high. The arcades are punctuated by huge sculpted panels, and alcoves containing enormous sculptures of a variety of deities. Originally flying bridges of stone connected these galleries to central temple structures, but these have fallen.
Within the courtyard are two structures. As is traditional in Shiva temples, an image of the sacred bull Nandi fronts the central temple housing the lingam. In Cave 16, the Nandi Mandapa and main Shiva temple are each about 7 metres high, and built on two storeys. The lower stories of the Nandi Mandapa are both solid structures, decorated with elaborate illustrative carvings. The base of the temple has been carved to suggest that elephants are holding the structure aloft.
A rock bridge connects the Nandi Mandapa to the porch of the temple. The temple itself is a tall pyramidic structure reminiscent of a South Indian temple. The shrine – complete with pillars, windows, inner and outer rooms, gathering halls, and an enormous stone lingam at its heart – is carved with niches, plasters, windows as well as images of deities, mithunas (erotic male and female figures) and other figures. Most of the deities at the left of the entrance are Shaivaite (followers of Lord Shiva) while on the right hand side the deities are Vaishnavaites (followers of Lord Vishnu).
There are two Dhwajasthambha (pillars with flagstaff) in the courtyard. The grand sculpture of Ravana attempting to lift Mount Kailasa, with his full might is a landmark in Indian art.

The Kailasa (Sanskrit: Kailāsanātha) temple is one of the largest rock-cut ancient Hindu temples located in Ellora, Maharashtra, India. It was built in the 8th century by the Rashtrakuta king Krishna I as attested in Kannada inscriptions. This is one of the 34 temples and monasteries known collectively as the Ellora Caves. These extend over more than 2 km, were dug side by side in the wall of a high basalt cliff in the complex located at Ellora.

Cave 16, the Kailasa Temple, is the unrivaled centerpiece of Ellora. This gargantuan structure – designed to recall Mount Kailash, the abode of Lord Shiva – looks like a freestanding, multi-storeyed temple complex, but it was carved out of one single rock, and covers an area double the size of Parthenon in Athens.
This is a close up of one of the paintings on the second story of the outside of the central structure in teh Kailasa Temple. If you look closely you can see the level of detail that has gone into the painting of this scene.
