Vishnu Springs (vishnusprings.org) opened to the public for one day. After parking, it was about a half mile walk to the area of the 1890's resort town. The pathway went through a beautiful wooded forest.

The morning sun makes itself known from behind the clouds over the bell shaped formation known as the Temple of Vishnu.

Have a blessed week ahead dear friends :-)

This event for God Vishnu and age limit is under 15.

From the Wiki Page: "Vishnu Temple is named for Vishnu, the Hindu deity, redeemer of the universe. This toponym was applied in 1880 by Clarence Dutton who thought this mountain resembled an oriental pagoda, when he began the tradition of naming geographical features in the Grand Canyon after mythological deities."

 

I believe that is Humphreys Peak, a dormant volcano, way off in the distance, which is just north of Flagstaff, Arizona.

Der schönste Tafelberg (Butte) der Schlucht erinnert in seiner Gestalt verblüffend einen Hindutempel. Der Vishnu Temple ist nach der hinduistischen Gottheit Vishnu benannt worden.

Viele topographische Geländepunkte und auch Gesteinsformationen im Grand Canyon sind nach mythologischen Gottheiten benannt.

Vishnu Sanskrit: विष्णु, is one of the principal deities of Hinduism, and the Supreme Being in its Vaishnavism tradition. Vishnu is the "preserver" in the Hindu trinity (Trimurti) that includes Brahma and Shiva.

 

In Vaishnavism, Vishnu is identical to the formless metaphysical concept called Brahman, the supreme, the Svayam Bhagavan, who takes various avatars as "the preserver, protector" whenever the world is threatened with evil, chaos, and destructive forces. His avatars most notably include Rama in the Ramayana and Krishna in the Mahabharata. He is also known as Narayana, Jagannath, Vasudeva, Vithoba, and Hari. He is one of the five equivalent deities worshipped in Panchayatana puja of the Smarta Tradition of Hinduism.

 

In Hindu iconography, Vishnu is usually depicted as having a dark, or pale blue complexion and having four arms. He holds a padma (lotus flower) in his lower left hand, Kaumodaki gada (mace) in his lower right hand, Panchajanya shankha (conch) in his upper left hand and the Sudarshana Chakra (discus) in his upper right hand. A traditional depiction is Vishnu reclining on the coils of the serpent Shesha, accompanied by his consort Lakshmi, as he "dreams the universe into reality"

Vishvarupa or Vishwaroop is a term used within Hinduism to refer to: Vishvarupa, revealed by Vishnu in the Bhagavad Gita. Vishvarupa has innumerable forms, eyes, faces, mouths and arms. All creatures of the universe are part of him.

Here is a shot from my campsite on the tonto trail. A magnificent view of these temples. I went on a 6 day backpacking trip on the escalante route and almost made it to the Little Colorado River, but was turned around by the weather and lack of food. I started at Grandview and ended at Tanner.

A beautiful panel showing Lord Vishnu and his consort in the Chennakesava temple at Belur, Karnataka !!! This temple was built by Hoysala dynasty kings in the 13th century. This is the finest example of Hoysala architecture !!!

 

Have a great day friends !!!

Mortality and divinity are joined in this figure of a yoga master attaining an equivalence with the cosmos.

 

With its origins in India about 2,500 years ago, yoga developed philosophical elements both spiritual and secular, with ties to Hindu, Jain, Sufi and Buddhist traditions, in its goal of leading to spiritual transformation.

The Shiva Vishnu Temple of South Florida is a non-profit religious organization with a mission of operating a traditional Hindu temple based on Vaasthu and Agama Shaastra and imparting religious, educational, and cultural values to our community and future generations. In 1996 we embarked upon building a traditional Dravidian (South Indian) style temple under the guidance of chief architect, Dr. Ganapati Sthapati of Chennai, India, a well-known temple builder of international repute. The construction began in April 1999. Twelve shilpis (sculptors) came from Mahabalipuram, Tamilnadu, India in April 2000 and carried out the Indianization of the temple.

 

The main temple building has two Raja Gopurams (entrance towers) and two Vimana Gopurams (Towers) over each of the main Shiva and Vishnu Garbagrahas (Shrines). The total area of the temple is approximately 6200 sq ft. The temple ornaments and architectural style are of Chola, and Pandya dynasty (10th century) for Shiva and Parivar (associated) shrines, and Vijayanagara dynasty (12th century) for Venkateshwara and Parivar shrines. The Ayyappa shrine is built according to the Kerala style of architecture. The second building is the community hall which opened in April of 2001. It houses educational and cultural activities and is occasionally rented for private ceremonies to Temple members and devotees.

 

Mahakumbhabhishekam (sacred purification) and Pranaprathishtapana (consecration) of our temple were celebrated from November 23 to 25 of 2001 and the temple has been open to the public since then. We have four well-trained priests from India who perform daily puja services. The temple’s religious rituals strictly follow the Agama Shastras: Shiva agama for Shiva and Parivar devathas, Pancharathra agama for Vishnu and parivara devathas.

 

The temple organizes a number of religious services and celebrates major Hindu festivals throughout the year, which are open to the general public. Devotees have the pportunity to sponsor any of these religious services. The temple priests can also conduct specific religious services on behalf of devotees either at the temple or in their homes.

 

The construction of the temple was made possible with generous contributions from the members of our community. The temple is operated by revenues generated from services and donations. Your generous donation is always welcome

and is tax-deductible.

Sculpture of Lord Vishnu at Sri Kodandarama Swamy Temple, Ejipura, Bengaluru.

Beautiful sculpture of Varaha Avatar of Lord Vishnu-

 

Varaha is the third avatar of the Hindu god Vishnu in the form of a boar. When the demon Hiranyaksha stole the earth (personified as the goddess Bhudevi) and hid her in the primordial waters, Vishnu appeared as Varaha to rescue her. Varaha slew the demon and retrieved the Earth from the ocean, lifting it on his tusks, and restored Bhudevi to her place in the universe.

 

Varaha may be depicted completely as a boar or in an anthropomorphic form, with a boar's head and human body.

And the festival of colours.
