"pas le plus intéressant mais quand-même pas mal."

"The majestic Dakshineswar Temple sits on the east bank of the Hooghly River, a distributary of the Ganges. The presiding deity is Bhavatarin, an aspect of the goddess Kali, but this is a pilgrimage site for both Hindus and members of other religions, too, largely because of the temple's association with Ramakrishna Paramahansa, who was the priest here for thirty years in the nineteenth century. According to legend; in 1847 the wealthy widow Rani Rasmani was preparing to go by boat from Calcutta to the sacred city of Banaras in order to worship the Divine Mother. The night before she planned to leave, the Divine Mother appeared to her in a dream as Kali, telling her that there was no need to go to Banaras. Instead, she should erect the goddess's statue in a beautiful temple on the banks of the Ganges and arrange for her worship there Profoundly affected. Rasmani purchased 25 acres (10 ha) of land and work began immediately. The resulting complex, which is 46 feet (14sqm) and rises to more than 100 feet (30 m), has at its center a nine-spired temple to Kali, but there are aiso twelve other temples dedicated to Shiva and Radha Krishna. Rasmani spent a fortune on construction and yet more money on the consecration ceremony, which took place on May 31, 1855. When Ramkumar, the first priest, died within the yeat, responsibility passed to his younger brother, Ramakrishna Paramahansa Convinced of the transitory nature of worldly matters, this important Hindu religious teacher, who was also an influential figure in the nineteenth-century Bengal Renaissance, emphasized the harmony of all religions. The continuing popularity of his ideas means that his room, in the northwestern comer of the courtyard, beyond the last of the Shiva temples, is one of the most visited parts of the temple complex."
