caption_attribution_description: English: The Temple resonates the craftsmanship of its time. Such detail and precision only shows the strong cultural values prevalent among people in those times which cant be rivalled to the modern works. The temple itself is calm and peaceful as is with every temple in India. It is symbol of History for the works and designs are so soundly correct that it has stood against deterioration. हिन्दी: मंदिर अपने समय की शिल्प कौशल को गूंजता है। इस तरह के विस्तार और परिशुद्धता केवल उन लोगों के बीच प्रचलित मजबूत सांस्कृतिक मूल्य दिखाती है जिन्हें आधुनिक कार्यों में प्रतिद्वंद्वी नहीं बनाया जा सकता है। मंदिर भारत में हर मंदिर के साथ शांत और शांतिपूर्ण है। यह इतिहास का प्रतीक है क्योंकि इसके लिए यह इतना सही था कि यह गिरावट के खिलाफ खड़ा है।
context_page_description: Ravidas was an Indian mystic poet-sant of the Bhakti movement during the 15th to 16th century CE. Venerated as a guru in the region of Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and mainly Punjab. He was a poet-saint, social reformer and a spiritual figure.
  The life details of Ravidas are uncertain and contested. Scholars believe he was born in 1450 CE, in a family that worked with dead animals' skins to produce leather products.
  Ravidas's devotional songs were included in the Sikh scriptures known as Guru Granth Sahib. The Panch Vani text of the Dadupanthi tradition within Hinduism also includes numerous poems of Ravidas. He taught removal of social divisions of caste and gender, and promoted unity in the pursuit of personal spiritual freedoms.
