Summary edit

Description

29 Buddha God, around Bodhgaya

the Shaiva Mahant (head of monastery) took up residence in a small building just opposite the Mahabodhi Temple and worshipped images of Buddhist deities installed there as forms of Hindu gods. Many of the images, earlier used as decorative panels in the older temples, became objects of worship by the Mahants and the local populace.
