While covering a voyage to Pushkar in Rajasthan, you will encounter two Raghunath Temples, out of which the older one is fanatical to Lord Vishnu constructed in the year 1823. Here in this temple, Lord Rama is the reigning god believed to be the personification of the Lord Vishnu.
In Hindu mythology, three gods that in cooperation form the Indian Holy Trinity are Lord Vishnu (the preserver), Lord Shiva (the destroyer) and Lord Brahma (the creator). It is evident that when ever crime has come up to the brims then the respective gods have taken birth to uplift their supporters from the disasters. Similarly, Lord Rama portrayed in Ramayana took birth for the betterment of his countrymen which is why Raghunath Temple has a huge relevance in Pushkar.
Not only this, while passing through the passage of temple, you will also see the idols of other countless deities housed within the Raghunath Temple such as Lord Venugopal, Goddess Laxmi (Goddess of wealth) and Narasimha (the fourth personification of Lord Vishnu). This sacred temple is malodorous of ancient India.
However, the Raghunath Temple also has seven shrines where all have their own Shikharas. This is actually a highest point over the sanctum sanctorum of the ruling god. Unlike North India, where all the temples have a distinct shikhara, South India has the counterpart called 'Vimana'.
All those who are in love with Lord Vishnu can fix a date with them by planning a trip to Raghunath Temple in Pushkar where you can have a close interaction wih your much loved god without any impediment.
