#Dandeshwar Temple, 9th/10th century, #Kumaon, #Uttarakhand

Govind Singh, pujari, on lunch break from #Dandeshwar Temple, #Kumaon, #Uttarakhand

🗿 Aztec? Inca? Khmer? Mayan? The power of the inward gaze witnessing more than a thousand years and into eternity, deep in the #Kumaon foothills of the #Himalaya, in #Uttarakhand, at the 9th/10th century #Dandeshwar Temple near #Almora 🗿

Not just fun but deeply satisfying to easily build these flatstone mini-cairns in the cool waters of the #JataGanga river that gently flows past the more than thousand-year-old #Dandeshwar and #Jageshwar Temples in the #Uttarakhand #Kumaon, vibrant harmonies.
