Have u ever wondered Why Do We Go Clockwise Around Temples🛕?
This walking around the 🛕 in clockwise direction is called '#Pradakshina'.
Some time back when my 5-year-old asked me, why only clockwise & not anticlockwise? I had no answer.
But Now I know the reason behind it.

If you notice closely, many natural phenomena turn clockwise above the #Equator and anticlockwise below it. It is not just with air or water, the very energy system functions like this. In the northern Hemisphere of the planet, this is a natural phenomenon.

This is why every temple had a water body what was generally called a 'kalyani'. In Tamil Nadu, it is called a 'kulam'. we are supposed to take a dip and go through the temple with wet clothes so that we receive the energies of the #consecratedSpace in the best possible way.

constantly allow this transaction to happen, so that gradually, the living body itself becomes like a divine entity. If we want, we can keep this body like a beast. Or we can make it like a sacred form🪷.

scientifically constructed in a certain way – magnificent structures which took lifetimes to create. For ex., the #Kailash 🛕at Ellora, which was built by the Rashtrakutas took 135 years of work. That means 4 generations of people worked to the same plan, not changing a bit😯
