Shanti,
the Sri Jambukeshwara Temple Elephant
In Tirucirappalli
(or Trichy, as it is more commonly known) there are many temples
and rock forts. The Sri Jambukeshwara temple is dedicated to Shiva
and Parvati, and is one of the Pancha Bhoota (five elements) temples
and is dedicated to water. I was not able to gain entry into the
inner sanctum, as I am not a Hindu, but the temple grounds and shrines
are beautiful, and four a 2 rupee coin Shanti blessed me with a
gentle tap on the head with his trunk.
