Yet outside of India and a few places like Sri Lanka, Nepal and Bali, what happens inside these temples remains a mystery--to young generations of Hindus as well as to curious newcomers. It's all a bit intimidating at first. This Insight is designed to answer the common questions that arise: Why are temples important? What are the customs and protocols, the dos and don'ts? What attitudes should one hold inside? Do all those rituals have a meaning? What is the priest chanting? All these musings and more are addressed here to help newcomers--both Hindus and non-Hindus--enjoy and benefit from their temple visits.
