Description
Khajuraho is a small town in India's Chhatarpur district of Madhya Pradesh. It is well known for its several thousand years old temples with erotic art. As per legend, there were once 85 temples, but only 25 temples have survived the test of time. These are divided into three groups of temples; the Western group, the Eastern group, and the Southern group of temples.
In this live-streamed interactive online experience, we will explore the temples together as I give you insights about them; how they are dedicated to different Indian religions and sects and have very special architectural and decorative elements of ancient temple architecture. These temples have beautiful imagery of Hindu gods and goddesses, celestial nymphs, erotic couples, and mythical animals with decorative religious designs, all carved on local sandstone. My tour is ideal for yoga practitioners, philosophers, young married couples and enthusiasts of Hindu art, architecture, religion and tantra, and the significance of each of these will be highlighted as I show you around.
