We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

width, which is inclusive of a small
chamber dedicated to Shiva, a
chamber where Shiva's wife, Parvati
is deified
central sanctum or GARBHAGRIHA
where the Shiva linga is deified.
The sanctum sanctorum is
surrounded by interlinked passages
which also have side and front
balconies
Due to inadequate natural light in
the balconies the sanctum has very
little light thus creating a "cave like
atmosphere“, in total contrast to
the external parts of the temple.

is a SHIKHARA(Vimana or Spire)

towards the sky.
The pillars, walls and ceilings
around the space, as well as outside
have highly ornate carvings or
images of the four just and
necessary pursuits of life - kama,
artha, dharma and moksa.This
clockwise walk around is called
PRADAKSHINA.

elaborately carved sculptures of gods and goddesses, musicians and
apsaras or nymphs
The huge pillars of the halls have architectural features of the "vine or
scroll motif".
In the corners of the halls there are insets which are carved on the surface
with incised patterns.
There is a main tower above the sanctum and there are two other towers
above the other mantapas also in the shape of "semi-rounded, stepped,
pyramidal form with progressively greater height".
The main tower is encircled by a series of interlinked towers and spires of
smaller size.
These are in the form of a repeated subset of miniature spires that abut a
central core which gives the temple an unevenly cut contour similar to
the shape of a mountain range of mount Kailasa of the Himalayas where
god Shiva resides.

15. Central Indian region, where Khajuraho temples are,
remained in the control of many different Muslim
dynasties from 13th century through the 18th century.
In this period, some temples were desecrated,
followed by a long period when they were left in
neglect.
In 1495 CE, for example, Sikandar Lodi’s campaign of
temple destruction included Khajuraho.
The remoteness and isolation of Khajuraho protected
the Hindu and Jain temples from continued
destruction by Muslims. Over the centuries,
vegetation and forests overgrew, took over the
temples.
