Light in the dark
There aren’t many Brahma temples in India and when we peep through the jalis of this one we see to our surprise a nicely lit Mukhalingam, a lingam with four faces. So this rare Brahma temple in Khajuraho is actually a Shiva temple. Without the help of Surya, the sun god, we wouldn’t have known.
