Ancient Indian Temples

Moreover, our logic gives us the comfort of faith that God is everywhere and prayers can be done at home, so what is the necessity to visit temples, and how it is going to benefit us? Would you like to know why we should visit temples?

Ancient Indian Temples

Indian Temples Architecture

India is a country that is known for its rich Hindu Culture and Tradition. We have had hundreds of mesmerizing Hindu temples across the country with beautiful architecture since Vedic times. These temples are consecrated based on science. Every single facet of it – from the size of the idols to the directions and the sanctum – is a highly developed science behind temple architecture. 

Temples are built deliberately at a place where the positive energy is available abundantly from the magnetic and electric wave conveyances of north/south post push.

Feel The Positive Vibes

The idol of God is set in the core center of the temple, known as” Grabhagriha” or “Moolasthanam”. Ideally, the structure of the temple is built after the idol has been placed in a high positive wave-centric place. 

Also if you have observed in most of the temples, the god’s statue is placed on a copper plate which is widely believed that these copper plates absorb earth’s magnetic waves and radiates them to the surroundings. Thus a person regularly visiting a temple and walking clockwise around the Main Idol receives the beamed magnetic waves. This is a very slow process and a regular visitor will eventually start feeling the positive vibes.

Moreover, the floor at the center of the temple is a good conductor of these positive vibrations allowing them to pass through our feet to the body. Hence it is necessary to walk barefooted while you enter the center of the temple.

Activate Energy Centers

Temples are not just a place of prayer or worship, they were created as powerful spaces where an individual could imbibe the enshrined energies. Most temples were consecrated to activate one or two particular chakras, the main energy centers within the human system.

Experience Divine Aura

The temple has all these positive energies supplemented by the divine energy vibrated from the idol which is further complemented with the fragrance from the flowers, the burning of camphor, and the copper plates and the utensils used while worshipping that gives out the chemical energy that creates a good aura. When people go to a temple for evening aartis, the positive energy gushes out onto everyone present there.

Temple Bell Heals Your Seven Chakras

The moment you ring the temple bell, the bell produces a sharp but lasting sound that lasts for a minimum of seven seconds in echo mode which is good enough to heal your seven healing centers or chakras in your body. The moment a bell sound happens your brain is emptied of all thoughts. Invariably you will enter the state of trans where you become very receptive and you reach your conscious awareness.

Reinvigorate Balance and Stability

The environment of the temple produces a psychological effect that helps in improving concentration and peace of mind. The mantras, when chanted continuously, the very air vibrates with pure vibrations. So if you go and sit in front of an energized Moorthy, in front of energy space in the temple and create a wish, your whole body and mind will be tuned to that thought. Naturally, it will become reality in your life. And thus energy lost in a day’s work is regained through a temple visit and one is refreshed completely with a certain sense of balance and depth.
