Rahu and Ketu Yagyas
April 21, 2008
As you probably know, we sponsored a number of different Rahu and Ketu yagyas this month and this image is from the temple in Kanchipuram where the first ones took place. Snakes, not being a part of our usual western experience, make this seem very exotic and unusual. Look closely and see how elegantly the snakes are carved. If you look closely you can see a human form Shiva in the large one in the rear and Shiva lingams in the front ones.
