TEMPLO Baha´i 2018 - Easter is on 1st April. it is not a joke! As most of foreigners, I met so far, no one has celebrated Easter... On this occasion, Joanna suggested to go to The Baha´i temple. Good idea! I thought it was an Indian temple but no....?!! Located at the foothills of the Andes, surrounded by beautiful gardens and a great view on Santiago. Background Krishna was born 5 thousand years ago, Jesus 2000 years ago and Baha´i in 1863. Bahá'u'lláh created the Baha´i faith in 1863, believing that Mohamed or Jesus will send a prophet . He thought that he is the one. The Baha´i faith is monolistic. "Essentially a mystical Faith, the Baha’i teachings focus on the soul’s relationship with the eternal, unknowable essence of God, and recommend daily prayer and meditation to everyone. Baha’is believe that the human spirit lives eternally, and so endeavor to illumine their souls with spiritual attributes—kindness, generosity, integrity, truthfulness, humility and selfless service to others."

But I did not know that the lotus temple in Delhi was a Baha´i temple. I had a very bad time, I did not even went inside... Unfortunately we cannot take picture inside... Time to meditate! A 7 years old Chilean boy told his mum: " this is a big ball!" Es una grande pelota!" This outer surface is made of marble... well a fake one a plastic one. ?!!! Inside it might be marble, granite, polar stone... well it made of stone! Great view from the temple! Great time! To reach the temple, there is a 2 km walk ... up the hill!
Let´s go!
