We're a long way from Delhi Friends! I'm here in the middle of nowhere in
Chhattisgarh. In this rocky lush Valley. To take you guys to a very very special
temple. You guys have heard of the rat temple in Bikaner in Rajasthan, right?
Well this is the bear temple here in Chhattisgarh. Bears come to this temple
every single day. Let's go and try find some. Let's go and check out this amazing temple.
And I have no idea where we're going,
the car park is there. Our motorbikes are there, nobody else is around, by the way, no one
is here this. This is a quiet quiet place and I'm guessing I have to go up here
somewhere. I'm gonna follow that music and I can already see signs for bears on
the rocks here so I'll use my like selfie stick to defend myself if I need to but
apparently these beers are very friendly so let's go and try and meet some bears
at this temple. How's this I'm literally walking up a rock face here
and I can see all over the region here all over Chhattisgarh and I can see a
lot of temples. This temple is right on top of a rock face guys. On top of a mountain.
I made it a hub the rock face and we're here at Chandni Mata Temple
and Chandni, the goddess, she is one of the most powerful because actually. She
can use all of the Hindu gods powers combined. She is very very strong.
And so this temple here behind us, that is dedicated to her, to Chandni.
The Bears aren't here yet they come between 4 p.m. and 10 p.m.
So just hang around for a while we'll find them.
You got the painters up there.
Alright, so, we met the priest. He said the bears are coming and they should be here now so yeah they come pretty regularly
and you know I guess people feed them here so that's why they keep coming back.
And here the bears are. They have come bang on 4:00 p.m.
Even more bears have come right now. There's five or six bears that live around here.
Now, I'm not gonna get into whether it's good or not to bring these bears here
like this. But they come on time every day. They come out of the wild. They're
not kept in cages here and brought here okay. These are wild bears and this just shows
how much wildlife is here in Chattisgarh and how they've actually looked after
the forests in the state and looked after the wildlife. There are literally
bears roaming around coming to a temple every single day to eat.
They try and keep the beers just outside of the premises behind the wired fence they've put up.
But they do get in like like right now. So they do walk around the
Temple area here as you can see. They're just over there.
They've got through the gate and yeah just coming around doing what they want to do.
They're free to roam here. And there's a guy here obviously and his job
is to keep them away from people and just make sure nobody annoys the bear.
He's looking after them basically. Okay now my next problem is the bear is
literally sitting where I need to go my motorbikes this way. So what to do?
He says I can go.
Any beers in the background guys? They're not following me? They're all on this side.
They all came out this way. But my motorbikes down there. And mine's the only bike down there right now actually.
