    The stepwell journey continues - Bani das ki Bawari

    March 3 2018.
    Previous blog, earlier in the day: Stepwell Diary - Abhaneri to Bundi - Bhandarej

    Or get an overview of the stepwells near here.

    We leave Bandarej heading west to the town of Dausa where we expect to see a neglected stepwell overgrown with trees. When we arrive it's hard to believe we're at the right location. It seems that after a recent election some cash has been provided to regenerate the Bani das ki Bawari stepwell. 

    Women and children are gathered by the entrance, it's the end of the afternoon - always a great time in India - everyone's relaxed and we get a friendly reception especially when Tsering, my companion from Ladakh wearing the polo cap, speaks Hindi and convinces the locals she's Indian too. Her face is unfamilar and people are never sure where's she's from.

    MAGIK INDIA

    A stop at Tiruvannamalai is a mystical moment. The town takes its name from Annamalaiyar temple around which it grew, and Shiva worship is a key activity for the town. For Hindus, Arunachala Hill overlooking the town represents Shiva himself and is an object of special devotion. The town is full of hermitages and ashrams that bear witness to its powerful spiritual charge.

    Legends about the Arunachala Hill

    A legend tells us that one day Shiva’s consort Parvati put her hands over his eyes, for fun. It lasted a mere fraction of a second in godly terms, but it meant that the earth was shrouded in darkness for years. Parvati had to perform many austerities to regain Shiva’s confidence. She started her austerities in the Himalayas and finished them in the south, on Arunachala Hill. And there Shiva appeared in a luminous column, and light was restored to the world. Shiva merged with Parvati to form Ardhanarishvara, a being who is half male, half female, and who has lived in the hill ever since.

    The Siva Mahapurana, an ancient mythological and religious scripture, tells of a quarrel between Brahma the creator and Vishnu the preserver. Each claimed to be the Supreme Lord and a terrible battle ensued, plunging the univer
