\"Bahai<\/a>
Lotus Temple \u2013 Home of Peace and Tranquility<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

‘Dil Walon ki Dilli mein fir se apka swagat hai<\/i>‘ (welcome to warmhearted Delhi)!\u00a0Travellers identify it as a ‘must see place’ in Delhi<\/a>, I call it a home of love, peace and tranquility –\u00a0It is the Baha’i House of Worship in Delhi. Popular as the Lotus Temple, Baha’i Mandir is one of the most visited edifices in the world!<\/p>\n

The life outside the Lotus temple is busy, chaotic and signifies the life of a common man \u2013 one who is busy to earn a living, struggling to feed his family. Once you enter the main gate, the path surrounded by exuberant gardens that leads to the main temple is like a journey amidst the beautiful greens of God’s blessings; while the iconic, white lotus-like architecture stands as a symbol of divine peace. It is one of the top ten monuments of India<\/a>. Inside the main hall lies the secret of \u00a0the Lotus Temple \u2013 the Unifying spirits of Mankind, where people from all religion unite in search of the Almighty. Where prayers speak the language of faith and not scriptures, where not sermons but blessings are delivered. It seems like every prayer is reaching God without any musical chants or customary rituals being performed.<\/p>\n
