Indian temples, built according to Agama Tradition, often incorporate aspects of various Indian philosophical systems including Vedas, Shaddarshanas, Jainism, and Buddhism among others. These temples often feature distinctive architectural elements and mystical symbols. Some Siva Temples, for instance, symbolize the Five Elements of Nature. Unique phenomena like sun rays falling at certain spots, idols changing color, and temples aligned longitudinally also exist. Furthermore, these temples also incorporate chakras - crucial spiritual concepts in both Hinduism and Buddhism. Six such Siva temples exist representing the Six Chakras. The concept and representation of chakras have evolved over time, influenced by various sources including Early Sanskrit texts, Western influences, and other cultural systems.
