The theme has been weaved into seven comprehensive chapters including the source material at the end of the book. Since the days of yore, temples are the centers of our religious beliefs which were built up with the spontaneous donors from time to time. They represent several gods and goddesses who are generally venerated by all the Hindus in accordance with the prevalent customs and traditions. The big temples are managed by the registered trusts and proper accounts are maintained by its administration. The pilgrims come there from far and wide with the belief that their wishes would be fulfilled by the God. In the North of India, Hardwar is the biggest religious center where millions of people visit and have their holy dip and also perform the religious rites of numerous kinds. Thus the religious faith of the people is so deep that they do visit these temples at least once in their life. The journey for various temples is sometime very difficult and arduous. But people bear them all with a smiling face.
