Yes, we Indians believe we can reach God just about anywhere.

Once
an evergreen tree (located in Delhi NCR), today a
mini-temple! What's left of this 15year old tree is a bare bark and a few green leaves.
So you might wonder how this tree became a
place of worship. Well, its quite simple. Someone a couple of years back placed a statue or
two of the Indian idols here, and one thing just led to another. The caretaker
of this temple, has now become a self-proclaimed priest. The people of
this neighborhood have become superstitious about this place of worship & have
been offering prayers over the years.
|
The tree or temple (whatever you might call it) has a new addition, its now also become a wishing site, just like the ‘wishing well’, but you don’t throw a
coin to make a wish, instead here you tie a red thread around the tree
to make a wish. Once the wish is fulfilled you return to the tree temple and untie the thread.
