Exploring the ancient rock-cut cave temples of Ellora, particularly the Vishwakarma cave, the author delves into her childhood fascination sparked by her father's stories. Through extensive research across various disciplines, she uncovers the historical and cultural significance of the cave, home to a revered Buddha figure. This work blends scholarship, detective narrative, and memoir, inviting readers to reflect on devotion, heritage, and the connections that bind us to our ancestors and the divine.
