Part 07 Buddhanilkantha - Kathmandu - Kailas Manasarovar Yatra

After finishing our mountain flight, we visited Pashupatinath temple and then from then went to Buddhanilkantha temple. Situated below Shivapuri hill at the northern end of the Kathmandu valley, Buddhanilkantha temple is 9 km from Kathmandu city. The temple consists of a pond in which lies a great stone figure of Lord Vishnu reclining on the coils of a cosmic serpent. The huge statue of sleeping Vishnu is carved from the single block of black stone of a type not found in the valley. It is believed that in a by-gone age, many years before there were two hardworking farmers (husband and wife) who maintained a farm here, and one day they discovered the Deity when they were ploughing their field. Iskcon took over the maintainence of the temple and grounds from about 1986-87. there is now even a guest house there.

But everyone collectively put together can try to understand it as much as possible. We feel that the best way to gain knowledge is through sharing. Whether you are a Guru or someone with a limited knowledge, we believe in sharing. By making iGnani a platform to share knowledge, we would want to give back something which we know and in the process learn what we don't.
