caption: INDIA Temple Karni Mata - sacred Rats nutrono from the ciotola of latte offered they daily give the faithfuls to the Karni Mata Temple, to Deshnok. To approximately 30 km from Bikaner, in the Rajasthan, one finds this induista temple, one of most unusual than all India. Temple dedicated to the goddess Karni Mata, a multitude of sacred rats (Kaba) is venerated here and nourished with latte and offered by the faithfuls. It is of good auspice the fact that a rat passes over the feet of the visitors (that they must be barefoot), and the legend speaks about a white rat whose apparition is profitable fortunate grandemente. Of good auspice it is considered by the induisti also to eat the remainders of the rats, even if decidedly risky from a sanitary point of view. Inside doors of silver and sculptures in marble, the temple is made to erect from maharaja 5813 the Singh Gangue to first of'900. India Citing in the credit: Fototeca Gilardi/Raffaella Milandri
