Lakshmi Temple in Jaipur



We traveled on AC1 first class with aircon sleeper to Jaipur from Delhi, a very comfortable ride in such heat and met an off duty railway Police Officer who was in the sleeper next to us. He bought us lunch in Jaipur Train station, a very clean restaurant with enjoyable Tali. Our off duty Indian Police Officer had an interesting story but more of that later....

Even hotter than Delhi, Jaipur was full off action and bustle, after our Officer friend left us outside the train station we chilled in the sweltering heat waiting for the best deal to visit our next destination, The tranquil and beautiful SAVISTA Retreat & Spa. The Taxi driver drove a hard bargain so we stalled for time, meanwhile a small crowd of about 30 people gathered to heckle our negotiations.

We decided to go the the amazing Lakshmi Temple completely made of marble and spend 40 minutes paying our respects to Lakshmi and deep meditation looking into the God's eyes...

The walls were covered in carvings of the Vedic stories and the whole of the outside was carved with Gods, notable religious personalities and inscirptions...

Such an amazing peaceful vibe, a direct channel for inspiration and connection to spirit...

Lakshmi God of Wealth and luck...
