There is a beautiful Dhanwantari Temple inside this campus. Dhanwantari is an Avatar (reincarnation) of Vishnu in Hindu tradition. He appears in the Vedas & Puranas as the Physician of the Gods & is also considered as the God of Ayurvedic medicine. In Hinduism people pray to Dhanwantari for good health. We visited this temple on Pongal day to offer special prayers and could take a few pictures:
1.Statue of Dhanwantari at the entrance of the New Block:

ReplyDeleteIf its a place of healing, I like how "homely" it looks. It's called "money plant"? Wonder why?
ReplyDeleteMy Dad stays in Coimbatore. I have visited this place many times.

@eye in the sky: One may wonder - why "Scindapsus Aureus" is called the money plant? There is a popular belief if money plant thrives well it brings prosperity. Hence, the good growth of Scindapsus Aureus in any household is an indicator of wealth. Conversely, if growth of the money plant is stunted or retarded, it indicates financial crisis ahead for inhabitants. It is understood that plant is called money plant because its leaves (round, flat, heart-shaped, dark green and plump) resembles with the coins.
