Cairn - stacking stones one above the other

 Stacking stones has been a traditional practice. The stacked rocks are called cairn. While placing each stone one above the other needs lot of patience, concentration, and physical effort. Cairn is commonly found in Buddha temples and temples in south India especially Tamil Nadu, and also in wilds mainly done by hikers. In temples, spiritually people pile one stone onto the other to thank god, some make a wish, and some believe in bringing good luck.
