PROLOGUE

Many parts of India have been blessed with the construction of several kinds of shrines although this noble task is sadly neglected by the ruling class. The industrial magnates and commercial houses have taken up this sacred work with a zeal. seems far surpassing the bygone builders. Many imposing structures have sprung up in almost all parts of India. Among the infinite number of temples built by religious institutions charitable Trusts and philanthropic organizations, the shrines built by mighty Birla House are a class in themselves. They are different and occupy a conspicuous place among such similar ones due to the characteristic Birla aroma - a speciality, which is inimitable and unsurpassable in any point of tune. "By any" if affixed it sticks hard and can't be erased even. The Viswanath Mandir in the Banaras Hindu University Campus Banaras. Lakshmi Narayan temple in Delhi. Sri Krishna Mandir in Mathura, Birla Mandir in Jaipur, Balaji temple in Hyderabad etc.. exemplify their matchless contribution to temple culture of modern India. The contributions made by Baba Kali Kamlia Trust. Ramakrishna Math and a host of other similar ones deserve reverent mention. And-visit-worthy as matter of act.
