Spiritual
India
Indians have always probed life in this
world and beyond. Indian culture lays great emphasis on life after death and
its dependence on Karma. Religious beliefs are based on this and temples to commemorate
deities.
Different places became famous for their
religious identities such as Varanasi
in North India is known for nothingness in life, the mortality of physical
being, Haridwar became famous for Bhakti marg asking its followers to
embrace Bhakti or worship to become pure from inside thus canonizing a dip in
the holy Ganges, the holiest of them
all, the Four Dhams which are a must
visit for a devout Hindu, once in his life time-Badrinath dham in Uttarakhand, Dwarka
Dham in Gujarat, Puri Dham in
Orissa and Rameshwaram in Tamilnadu.
All these Dhams are located in all parts of India and one can get an inside
glimpse of what drives Indian beliefs and religion.
Besides this there are numerous temples and
holy places to visit in India and one needs to focus on the faith of the people
that drive their life through the ups and downs of their lives with equanimity.
