Himachal Pradesh - Kullu Valley - Inde
Basheshar Mahadev temple (=Shiva), à Bajaura, quelque 15km avant Kullu, quand on vient de Mandi. Le temple est isolé, à l'écart (200 m) de la route dans la direction de la rivière.
Se dressant au milieu d'un petit jardin bien entretenu, il est lui-même en excellent état, bien que datant du 8ème siècle. Sa tour-shikhara, d'un style très pur, s'élance vers le ciel. Elle est creusée, sur trois de ses faces, de niches profondes où ont pris place de grandes et belles statues de Ganesh au sud, Vishnu à l'ouest et Mahîshâsuramardinî (Durgâ ) à l'est. Du portail d'entrée, on débouche directement dans le sanctuaire central qu'habite un Shiva Lingam
Gopteshwar Mahadev Mandir is a cave temple dedicated to Lord Shiva near the place where Seti River emerges from underground. A self-emerging Shiva Lingam was found in the 3 km long cave during the 16th century. Apart from the holy temple, the long, deep and dark cave offer an excellent opportunity to explore the natural wonders in its truest form.
The temple was built by Hemadri, the minister of the Yadava King Ramachandra. The Jain style construction has led to debates about the origins of the temple, since the Kadamba Dynasty ruled Goa between the tenth and fourteenth centuries. The temple is built in the Hemadpanthi style from basalt, carried across the mountains from the Deccan plateau and carved craftsmen. It is considered to be the only specimen of Kadamba-Yadava architecture in basalt stone preserved and available in Goa. The temple survived invasions and the Goa Inquisition due to its remote location in a clearing deep in the forest at the foot of the Western Ghats which surround the site.
Our first glance at the Mahadev temple at Tambdisurla in Goa. Now isn't that refreshingly different! Firstly, it is in a radically different style to the other temples in Goa- in fact this reminded me of the temples of Halebid and Belur in neighbouring Karnataka. Second, the locals have mercifully left it in the original stone state and not painted it in bright gay playground colours as seems to be the trend, most exasperatingly, with many ancient Hindu temples in India. This temple dedicated to Mahadav (Shiva) at Tambdisurla was built in the Kadamba style from basalt, carried across the mountains from the Deccan plateau. The sculptures here were carved by local craftsmen. This temple is considered to be the only surviving specimen of Kadamba architecture in basalt stone still standing and preserved and in Goa. The temple survived untouched due to its remote location in a clearing deep in the forest at the foot of the Western Ghats which surround the site. It is within the Mollem National Park, More notes and pictures of the temple appear elsewhere in this album. (see previous and subsequent pictures in this album). (Goa India, Nov/ Dec. 2022)

Sanctum sanctorum of the Tambdisurla Mahadev temple in the Mollen National Park in Goa. The temple is dedicated to the Hindu god Shiva and is reminiscent of the temples at Aihole or Halebidand Belur in the neighbouring state of Karnataka. There is a Lingam (Hindu phallic symbol representative of Shiva) mounted on a pedestal inside the inner sanctum. According to local legend, a huge king cobra is in permanent residence in the dimly lit interior. Luckily we did not have the pleasure of meeting this creepy reptile- at any rate king cobras prefer to live up in the trees or amidst dense foliage anyway, if that is a reassurance! The Tambdisurla Mahadev temple consists of garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum), antarala (foyer or antechamber between the sanctu and pillared hall) and a pillared Nandi mandapa (hall), all carved from basalt. The four pillars are embellished with intricate carvings of elephants and chains and support a stone ceiling decorated with finely carved lotus flowers.
