Still touring New Delhi

This is the Baha'i Lotus Temple. We didn't actually go into this one, but it's a meditation center. It's beautiful with the sun setting behind it.

Another stop on the tour was this temple with a multimedia (special lighting, sound, statues/vignettes of Krishna giving Arjuna the Vedic message (hope I got that right); and of Krishna with the maidens (called gopis) and something about the yoga discipline for living a balanced life. The last part about the cosmos and all of life being connected; reincarnation and God was an interesting message to me since I'm reading two books on reincarnation and past lives. It was pretty cool and remember, none of this was in English, so it may be all projection on my part (not the Krisna/Arjuna/Gopi thing though). So the cool picture with all of the cobras is Krishna and these are fountains and trees all lit up beautifully.
