Hii guys!!
Guess what? i've got a new assignment to work on:D
Which means.....THAT I'LL BE POSTING THE JOURNEY OF MY PROJECT HERE! WITH YOU ALL!!!
And like always i'm so eager to share my ideas with you guys and moreover can't wait to see your reaction to my new blog topic!!
So, the first step towards this project includes selecting an area of our own choice like CP,
 Haus khas, Dilli haat etc..
After selecting the area also called macro area we further study the socio culture envirorment of that place,ambience, materials and other things. 


Oh! btw initially its a group project and by the end of the module it gets indivdiual. So our group has chosen CP(connaught place) as our macro research and within that we have chosen  HANUMAN MANDIR as our topic!
Before starting the project how about we chant a mantra?

Manojavam
Maarutatulyavegam
Jitendriyam Buddhimataam
Varistham,
Vaataatmajam
Vaanarayoothmukhyam
Sriramdootam Saranam
Prapadhye.

This mantra praises Hanuman as the messenger of the Lord Rama, who is the incarnation of Lord Vishnu. Hanuman can travel swiftly and is very intelligent. He is also described as the chief of the monkey army and the son of Vayu (Wind God).
Like before we have to maintain a logbook in which we describe our whole journey about our project. So this is the first page from my logbook in which i've shown a glance of my macro as well as micro area that is  connaught place and hanuman mandir.

let's get to know a little about this Mandir! What? where? when? why? and how did it establish..


HANUMAN MANDIRThis mandir is 500 years old, as the name itself says "pracheen".It was built originally by Maharaja Man Singh and was said to be reconstructed by Maharaja Jai Singh.
This mandir is very famous for its one eyed Hanuman murti which is 2000 years old and is said to have been found on the grounds of the temple.


Thats the fanous one eyed murti of Hanuman ji on your right!
During this time Hanuman ji was facing towards south while going to Lanka thats the reason why it is called as the one eyed murti.
Also one interesting fact about this murti is that it is coated with silver!
