Well, it's India, second largest population on the planet, and probably the highest population density on the planet - there are a LOT of people there with nothing better to do than sit around with their hands out, or chase western women around while playing pocket pool, so there's that.
I dunno when this thing was built, but some ancient maharajah probably put a bunch of those idle hands to work making little ones out of big ones until this thing stood finished. You just start with a mountain, then remove all the bits that aren't temple.
Pretty art work!
Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
