That Lord Siva To Be Adored

Temples Of India

INTRODUCTION

Keeping in  view of the multifarious benefits of the place of worship conferring on humanity, I desired to lift the curtain on the glory of the ancient temples in my own humble way, after retirement, as I had the opportunity of visiting hundreds of the most ancient, well-built, largely visited, widely popular, piously consecrated shrines strewn over entire Bharat, not by compulsion but by option. Although I did write and publish more than ten books on temples alone under two series - The Abodes Of Gods Series in seven volumes, and three in The Single Temple Series with the timely Financial assistance of the T.T.D., Tirupathi, which won the appreciation of the highly educated, theists, specialists, tourists, research scholars etc. both in India and abroad, my hunger has not been quenched, nor filled the retired  void fully. So, when I embarked rather another series - captioned, "The Shrines Superb' in five volumes, I was solicited by a few to devote one book for the Saiva Kshetras. Moreover, my visits to hundred and longing to bring out the multi-dimensional splendour of SIVA convinced me that, the new proposal would suit my writing project and be received well by the mast.
