The Hill of Devi
Reminiscences :
--
btw, I went uphill today evening. There is a devi-temple (E.M.Forster : Hill of devi) I climbed a hundred and more steps, turned left, got down another hundred or so many steps and returned home. These days thousands of devotees daily visit those temples. I had first visited that temple when I was of 3 or years of age. Then again, when I was 16 years. And kept visiting for 3 years once in a month or 2. After 45 years I could again go there. And when I was 16, I used to see very small stone structures, those similar to the pic. above, which pilgrims used to make by the way to the temple. After these 45 years, still people bring small stone pieces and make such along the steps. I too had built so many 45 years ago.
