Hello! Welcome back to this channel!  I am testing out this toy bike,

and both Keshu and I enjoyed riding it.  Although we cannot ride a full-sized bike,  
1
6000
7980
00:13
this toy bike gives us a taste of the experience.  Right now, I am having my lunch with my siblings  
2
13980
7980
00:21
and cousins. It was a different experience  having food together. Whenever  
3
21960
5776
00:27
you bring the camera towards Keshu, he acts  like a gorilla. I think he was a gorilla in  
4
27736
6801
00:34
his previous birth. Sometimes, it is difficult to  forget old habits. Old habits die hard. Isn't it?

After having our lunch together, we all swarmed  around the fridge. My grandfather stacked the  
6
46260
6600
00:52
fridge with ice creams and chocolates for us.  I was having trouble deciding which flavor  
7
52860
6480
00:59
of ice cream to choose because I wanted  the most delicious one. On the same day,  
8
59340
7920
01:07
we had a tug-of-war between boys and girls. The  girls emerged victorious as usual. It was really  
9
67260
8280
01:15
fun. We used a hose instead of a rope, which  made our grandfather angry because he uses  
10
75540
6900
01:22
it to water the plants. However, we had the  support of our grandmother. So, no worries!  
11

01:28
The next day, in the morning, we hit the road to  Govind Devji temple. The temple is around 12 km  
12
88860
7200
01:36
away from our house. We started early. So, it was  not much of a traffic. We enjoyed the ride. Now,  
13
96060
6900
01:42
I request my mother to take over the video from  here. We stopped on the way at a petrol pump to  
14
102960
6300
01:49
fill the tank. It is always better to keep  the tank full before starting any journey.  
15
109260
4980
01:54
This is one of the many precautionary measures  we should take to begin a journey. Isn't it? We  
16
114240
5940
02:00
may not find a petrol pump when needed. And if the  fuel gets over in the middle of the road, it would  
17
120180
6060
02:06
be complete chaos and troublesome to us as well as to other people on the road.
18
126240

02:11
Auntie Ji, how long have you been working here? It's been four years.
19
131100
2734
02:13
You must have been exhausted by the end of the day, right?
20
133834
1565
02:15
No, I'm not. My elder daughter is a doctor in physiotherapy, and my younger one is at Hyundai.
21
135399
4419
02:19
My son is going to be an engineer very soon. Oh, that's wonderful.
22
139818
2940
02:22
The elder daughter is a doctor in physiotherapy, and the son will become an engineer within one year.
23
142758
2887
02:25
That's very nice. He has completed his third year. He will become a software engineer.
24
145645
4575
02:30
I was not sure what to do, ma'am. My relatives have been causing me a lot of trouble.
25
150220
2365
02:32
I'm sorry to hear that, Auntie. However, sometimes things happen beyond our control.
26
152585

02:33
My folks ditched me when we were in financial hardship.
27

The woman who overcomes life's challenges will reach the pinnacle.
28

02:37
Your children have grown strong like your backbone. Isn't it?
29

02:41
After just seeing you, I decided to make a short video of you and upload it on my channel.
30
161734
4714
02:46
OK, see you later.
31

02:47
My eldest daughter is a physiotherapist, my son is studying to become an engineer,
32
167178
4384
02:51
and my other daughter works at Hyundai. My son will graduate in one and a half years.
33
171562

02:55
During tough times, people tend to depart.
34
175546
1704
02:57
Please don't shed tears for them. Please brush away the tears.
35
177250
2505
02:59
Remember, God is watching everyone's actions.
36
179755
1339
03:01
I am just waiting for my kids to be ready.
37
181094
1669
03:02
Yes, the God always helps the righteous.
38
182763

03:06
This impressive structure is actually a temple dedicated to Shiva, rather than a private residence.  
39
186434
6046
03:15
This area of Jaipur city is called  Chand Poll. Here we have the famous  
40
195960
7140
03:23
temple of Hanuman Ji, where the bombs were  blasted by terrorists in 2008.  
41
203100
6634
03:34
You may find yourself captivated by the uniform color of these buildings. But let me tell you. Because of 
42
214902
7458
03:42
this kind of dominant colour of its buildings,  Jaipur City is also known as the Pink City. It is  
43
222360
6660
03:49
also known as the Paris of India and the Island of  Glory. Let me also tell you how we got this colour  
44
229020
6600
03:55
in the city. The city was painted pink to welcome  Albert Edward, Prince of Wales, in 1876. Many of  
45
235620
7740
04:03
the avenues remained painted pink. It gives Jaipur  a distinctive appearance and the epithet Pink  
46
243360
6420
04:09
City. In the City, you will come across numerous  gates and walls similar to this one. We need to  
47
249780
7020
04:16
take a left through this gate, but the traffic  seems to be jammed. We'll have to wait for it  
48
256800
5820
04:22
to clear. We need to take a left turn from here to  get to the Hawa Mahal. Unfortunately, we are stuck  
49
262620
6960
04:29
in traffic again. This is the Hawa Mahal, a palace  built from red and pink sandstone. Its façade is  
50
269580
7620
04:37
magnificent. Isn't it? It has around 1,000 small  windows on its five-floor facade. It looks like a  
51
277200
7860
04:45
honeycomb. The small windows are called Jharokhas.  These small windows were designed to allow royal  
52
285060
6540
04:51
ladies to observe everyday life and festivals  celebrated in the street without being seen.  
53
291600
5460
04:58
The small windows make the whole area  pleasant during summer because they  
54
298620
4680
05:03
allow cool air to pass through. You might be  wondering if this is the front of the palace,  
55
303300
5160
05:08
but let me tell you. This is not the  front. This is the back of the palace.  
56
308460
4740
05:13
Its colour is a full testimony to the  epithet of "Pink City" given to Jaipur.  
57
313200
5460
05:28
This is where we are going to park our  car and head to the temple. The pigeons  
58
328440
4680
05:33
are filling their tummy with grains  scattered by the devotees over here.  
59
333120
4084
05:51
This is the entrance, and that one is the exit of  the temple. We washed our hands here and made our  
60
351180
6780
05:57
way to the temple. Here, you have a divine view of  Lord Govind Dev ji and Radha Rani. Right now, the priest  
61
357960
6300
06:04
is performing worship, Aarati. The devotees want  to capture the Lord's image on their mobile. The  
62
364260
6300
06:10
hall of the temple is packed like sardines. The  devotees have thronged to get the blessings of  
63
370560
6300
06:16
the Lord. The Lord is very merciful. Right now,  it is five past eleven. My father is carrying  
64
376860
8040
06:24
our Shyamsunder in the basket on his head, trying  to pass through the horde of devotees. It reminds  
65
384900
6660
06:31
me of a scene of Vasudevji having baby Krishna  to Gokul from Mathura on his head in a basket  
66
391560
6000
06:37
while crossing the river. Fifty-six types  of offerings are being offered to the Lord.  
67
397560
5040
06:43
The temple's walls are also painted the  same colour as other buildings in the city,  
68
403800
5568
06:49
which is a complete testimony to the  epithet of Pink City given to Jaipur.  
69
409620
4500
07:02
This is the rear side of the temple. The  pond, which was once filled with water,  
70
422460
5040
07:07
is now completely dry. I would say it is a  dry pond now. Earlier, there was a stunning  
71
427500
6180
07:13
view of the pond brimming with water. Now, the  solar system is being used here to generate or,  
72
433680
6300
07:19
I would say produce solar energy. Havisha wanted  me to click a photo of her with the dry pond in  
73
439980
7920
07:27
the background for just a memory. This is  the view of the temple from the outside.  
74
447900
7205
07:35
We were filled with joy from our wonderful  experience upon leaving the temple premises.  
75
455700
6000
07:41
These paintings depict the life and  activities of Lord Chaitanya Maha Prabhu.  
76
461700
5160
07:52
We did some shopping on the way and bought  a few decorations of our Shyamsunder,  
77
472020
5100
07:57
but not his clothes since my mother tailors his  outfits to fit his size. Havisha received a red  
78
477120
7140
08:04
rose offered to the Lord. We got in the car  and headed back to our home feeling blessed  
79
484260
6143
08:10
and grateful for the glimpses of the Lord.  Thank you so much for watching this video.
