2021-07-29 05:30:05 Galtaji is an ancient Hindu pilgrimage about 10 km away from Jaipur, Rajasthan. A natural spring emerges high on the hill and flows downward, filling a series of sacred kunds (water tanks) in which pilgrims bathe. It is believed that a Saint named Galav lived here, practiced meditation, and did penance.

Since the early 15th century Galtaji has been a retreat for Hindu ascetics belonging to the Vaishnava Ramanuja sect. It is said to have been in the occupation of yogis for a long time; Payohari Krishnadas, a Ramanandi sadhu, i.e. a follower of the Ramanandi Sampradaya came to Galta in the early 15th century and, by his yogic powers, drove away other yogis from the place.

Galta was northern India's first Vaishnava Ramanuja Peeth and became the one of the most important centres of the Ramanuja sect.

The temple contains five Shivlingas in its sanctum. Owing to their being hidden in a trench, these Shiva Lingams can be seen in light. Goddess Lakshmi, Lord Vishnu and Lord Mahadev are also housed in this temple. The temple also has an idol of Ganesh in female attire and is popularly called as Ganeshwari or Lambodari or Ganeshyani.

2021-07-27 07:30:03 The beauty of the architecture in any Hoysala era temple never ceases to fascinate anyone who vsists these temples The intricacies of the design & detailing, are infinitely awe inspiring, strongly riveting, instantly jaw dropping and numbing to the core. No matter how big or small the subject may be the attention to details, precision, proprotion and material selection have never been compromised. Thus, a series of temples have been created that have withotood the vagaries of time and weather over centuries. Marvelling us even today.
