भारतीय मंदिरों की स्थापत्य कला व शिल्प में खजुराहो की जगह अद्वितीय है। शिल्प की दृष्टि से ये बेजोड़ हैं ही, इनपर स्त्री-पुरुष प्रेम की बेमिसाल आकृतियां गढ़ी गई हैं। इसलिए इन्हें हमेशा अन्यत्र गढ़े गए शिल्पों के मानक के तौर पर देखा जाता है। उस दौर में ऐसे कई शिल्प गढ़े गए। कुछ ध्वस्त हो गए तो कुछ गुमनामी में खो गए। राजस्थान के अलवर जिले में स्थित सरिस्का नेशनल पार्क के इलाके में बना नीलकंठेश्वर मंदिर भी अपने शिल्प व उनमें मानवीय प्रेम के चित्रण के लिए अरावली का खजुराहो कहा जाता है सबसे भुतहा जगह के रूप में विख्यात भानगढ़ को देखने के तुरंत बाद हम नीलकंठ पहुंचे। मैं यकीन से कह सकता हूं कि भानगढ़ में मौजूद लोगों में से 10 फीसदी से कम ने ही इस मंदिर के बारे में सुना होगा और जिन्होंने सुना होगा उनमें से भी 10 फीसदी से कम ही यहां कभी गए होंगे। कांकवाड़ी किले की ही तरह, जब हम नीलकंठ पहुंचे तो ...

Tracking a tigress in the night

Sighting a tiger in the wild is always a thrill! A rogue tigress recently ventured closed to village and accidentally killed a person. This prompted wildlife officials to track its location and turn it back to its territory in the cold winter night of December. You can see in the video that Tigress will often go offroad but will eventually come back to the track. Tigress is aware of people following it, but not afraid enough to hide or run away. Perhaps tigress was new to this area and ventured here accidentally. Finally she decided to leave the road and lights of the vehicle to go deep into the woods.
