A Visit to ISKON (Day 2:13th aug 05:My Tour Days)

By 5:30 PM, We started to ISKON temple to have dharshan of lord krishna. It was really beautiful. The temple was built in white marbles which is a treat to watch. Everything was scriptured in Artisitic style. Even the lord Shree Krishna & Radha's Idol. It was done with excellency in art. Dont have words to describe such scintillating beauty. The inside hall of the temple is in the form of dome where the inner parts of it were decorated with Lord Krishna's paintings of his childhood. It was around 40 feet high. The temple was built by Acharya Prabhu Pada.His Idol was placed at a corner as a token of his memory.There we had food stalls down the temple. All kinds of varieties present in it. Apart from this there was a shopping stall maintaining collection of books and photos of Lord Krishna. Anil and I had a dharshan first then we came to food stalls and ate some fruit salads and Pakodis, later on we waited for our friends at slipper stand, meanwhile I met a German. his name is 'Tulvich'. He was a professor doing research on Hinduism. He came along with his students. We had a chat for some time. It was around 9 PM we came back from ISKON. Due to the lack of time Viswesaraya Museum was Cancelled. We prepared to leave for Kodai. Everybody expected that all our classmates will be given one bus but to my surprise, boys and girls were alloted seperate buses. Hangama started and the girls bus left soon at 11:00 PM, but we had to start at 1o clock as there was a big discussion with HOD for allowing boys and girls to seat in one bus. Meanwhile we had a good time at the Youth hostel before we left. Tikkler started cacking jokes and made a hilarious comedy, everyone laughed for his jokes. Then the bus started at 1AM. As soon as bus started every one went into deep sleep as the whole day made tiresome....!
