Dr Robert talks about his darshan at the Srirangam temple in India, where an idol of Vishnu gazes at an elephant, a horse and the backside of a cow (on cows, the backside is apparently the sacred side!) before humans are even admitted in its presence. The mummified body of Ramanuja is in the same temple. Since Robert is a Shaiva, indeed an Aghori, I didn´t expect him to talk about a highly orthodox Vaishnava temple, but there you go.
