GENERAL INTRODUCTION
Hinduism A useful introduction to the subject from the BBC. The site contains information on the history, structure and worship of the religion.
Hinduism One of the most comprehensive sites on this religion. History, sacred texts, topics such as Yoga. Also some brilliant photographs.
Gods of Hinduism Most of the major gods are listed here. This page will allow you to make a link to any of the listed gods. The articles on each god are quite short (suitable for a prep). A good starting point.
Pictures of the Hindu Gods some stunning pictures of Hindu deities from the Santan Society.
Temple Net This is an Indian site which gives access to dozens of different temples.
Temple in Atalanta Again an American Hindu site, but a useful picture of the Mandir when you first connect. Some useful information.
Shri Swaminarayan Mandir Shri Swaminarayan Mandir is the first ever traditional Hindu mandir of stone built in the UK. It is located in Neasden London.
What is Yoga? You may as well start at the beginning. A good article, if a bit long.
Yoga postures This is a "how to do it" guide. Good luck with some of the positions. You'll need a good physio if you try many of these. (Useful for information).
Kumbh Mela Over 25 Million people came together at the Maha Kumbh Mela festival in Allahabad, India in 2007. You are all invited to check our site for info on this, the largest gathering of humanity in history.
Mela from space Zoom in: Masses of people move down to the waters. What is probably the largest human gathering in history has been imaged from space. The Maha Kumbh Mela, or Grand Pitcher Festival, takes place every 12 years in Northern India. A BBC site.
Bathing dates This site has dates of other large Melas on the Ganges.
