Learn Hindi with HindiPod101.com! You are enjoying what was a quiet picnic lunch in a quiet park, when suddenly, your children come barreling towards you screaming! It seems like it takes ten minutes to calm them and their friends down enough so that you can concentrate on one voice at a time! Your son yells in Hindi, "Mom, mom!!! We were at the pond and we saw something moving in the water!!" His friend, equally excited, continues in Hindi, "Come see, come see!! Pleeeease! What IS it?" Laughing, both out of relief and because they are adorable, you agree to go explore the depths of the pond with them. As you reach the edge of the water, both boys are tugging at you and screaming in Hindi, "See it? There it is!! What is that???" You move a little closer to get a better look, almost stumbling into the water (which you are SURE they would have enjoyed tremendously), when you realize what it is they are talking about. You point to the little swimmer in the water and tell the boys in Hindi, "That is a frog...and that one there, that is a newt."

Following on from this, similar caves, Ajanta and Ellora, are surrounded by greenery, hiding their mysterious history in the rocks, situated on the forecourt of India. These caves are from the eighth century. They are called caves because they were made by cutting the cliffs. These sacred caves are not natural and are a man-made creation. Presently, there are thirty-four caves in the Ajanta Caves and twenty-nine in the Ellora Caves. These caves are surrounded by dense forest. All around are greenery, stupendous rocks, beautiful statues, and the flowing of Wagoor Stream in the hills, which adds more beauty to these caves. The structures of the caves look like a horseshoe which shows the legendary and historical precious time in which many cliffs were cut out and made into caves, monasteries, and stupas. Their speciality is in their making. They were hammered and chiselled from the beginning at the top of the cliff. The unique sculptures and paintings in these caves are the first choice of domestic and foreign tourists. These caves are a unique illustration of religion and antiquity. The confluence of Jain, Buddhist, and Hindu religions is present in the Ellora Caves but only Buddhism is shown in the Ajanta Caves. The pictures, which are based on the Lord Buddha, on the walls of the caves depict incidents in his life. In them, a peace is reflected which even today gives a message of deific power, energy, and unity. It took thousands of years to make them. Buddhists lived in these caves and meditated. Buddhism is shown in the calm and sanctified position in these caves. Buddhist paintings are made by using natural minerals, which are still praised by its own beauty in an unequaled manner. --------------------------- Learn Hindi with HindiPod101!
