Went to the amazing Vadakkumnathan temple in Thrissur.
Totally amazed by the magnificence of the structure, by the many layers of
meaning, by the rich history and wonderful colours. The architecture is timeless
and stirring, moving you to appreciate the concepts of worship and mythology
and the power of spirituality. Stone, wood, fire, light, shadows...all combine
to create an out-of-the-world experience. Sensory, aromatic, acoustic and tactile
senses – all are heightened to encompass one in a state of contemplation and
peace.
