More Tiny Temple

How many private temple in your housing area ? What is a private temple? What i mean by private temple is , small or tiny tiny temple build by Indian families inside their house compound .

I ask such question in my first sentence to open your eyes and aware with the presents of such temples in your housing area . Moreover i am mainly talk and only talk about this temples in this article.

Private temples build buy individual or an Indian family in the compound of thier house . Why they doing this ? To pray small or guardian god( tamil - kaval teivem such as kaali , aiya , muniyandi aiya) of the family .The family who own such private temple , light up the temple every day , and even do special prayers on special days .

How i know all this ? All base on my observation . I'm not living in a housing area with majority Indians . About 30% residence of my neighborhood are Indians , yet lately(since last 5 to 6 years)i noticed that , many Indian house started to have their own mini private temple . The incidents make write this article : A Indian family build a private temple in the compound of their house , since last half year .Finally the construction finish last month . A wonderful work , the private temple's height , tall as one single story house , painted with gold in colour ( i tried to snap a picture of it , but not brave enough) . The Indian family go one step further , you ask how.They did temple opening ceremony( tamil - Kumbavishegam ) . I mean a serious opening ceremony , as a real big temple . The road closed to two days , tents covers road of two houses , big lunch of mutton carry , and best part , a police approve for the ceremony.On the day of ceremony , there are reasonable crowd came and enjoy the ceremony and the lunch . The owner of the temple announced that the temple is free for all to be visited and pray even thou it located in their house compound .
