A Living Shrine Built from Ancient Stone The Gandheshwar temple is a living Shiva temple on the bank of the Mahanadi river at Sirpur, Chhattisgarh, the site of the ancient city of Sripura. Unusually, it was assembled largely from carved stone fragments recovered from Sirpur's older ruined shrines, so its walls and doorframes carry reused ancient sculpture, including images of Hindu deities and of the Buddha.
