  • Flowers in Greek Mythology
    Flowers in Greek Mythology Everybody knows how rich and exciting Greek Mythology is. Everybody also knows how rich and exciting Greek Flora is. Find out some of the famous Greek myths flower inspired. Find out how feelings and passions were mixed together with flowers to make wonderful stories still famous in nowadays. Anemone:The name of the plant is directly linked to the well known ancient erotic myth of Adonis and Aphrodite (Venus). It has been inspired great poets like Ovidius or, much later, Shakespeare, to compose hymns dedicated to love. According to this myth, while Adonis was hunting in the forest, the ex- lover of Aphrodite, Ares, disguised himself as a wild boar and attacked Adonis causing him lethal injuries. Aphrodite heard the groans of Adonis and rushed to him, but it was too late. Aphrodite got in her arms the lifeless body of her beloved Adonis and it is said the she used nectar in order to spray the wood. The mixture of the nectar and blood sprang a beautiful flower. However, the life of this 1 beautiful flower doesn’t not last. When the wind blows, makes the buds of the plant to bloom and then drifted away. This flower is called Anemone because the wind helps the flowering and its decline. Adonis:It would be an omission if we do not mention that there is a flower named Adonis, which has medicinal properties. According to the myth, this flower is familiar to us as poppy meadows with the beautiful red colour. (Adonis blood). Iris: The flower got its name from the Greek goddess Iris, goddess of the rainbow.

Introduction My dissertation starts from two fundamental questions. The first refers to seers in Ancient Greece: what was the role of seers in Greek society? What was the nature of their knowledge? Did they have authority, and if so, what was it based on? In the 2nd half of the 20th century, Greek religious studies have been largely dominated by the concept of a “polis religion”. Since in Greek culture there was no central institution or set of institutions that organised religious life, nor any dogmatic system or holy scripture that created a fixed framework for religious belief and practice, historians of religion have regarded the polis as an institution which assumed the role played by the Church in Christianity (compare Kindt 2012: 3–4 and Bremmer 2010). In consequence, all religious phenomena that did not fit into the frames of institutionalized polis religion were dismissed as insignificant, marginal or “sectarian”. Magic and mystery-religion took second place, and so did seers and divination.

    Journal of Dharma 33, 2 (April-June 2008), 133-154 ECO-FEMIN(ISM) AND HINDU(ISM) Positioning Contemporary Eco-Ethic Conversation Maheshvari Naidu 1. Introduction The article examines the complex cluster of issues that accrete around attempts to refract a contemporary ‘Hindu’ eco-ethic from ancient scriptural sources. So often, scholars and religious adherents alike refer back to the ‘golden eco-age’ alluded to in the various Vedic, Upanisadic and Puranic injunctions with their invocations adoring both the earth and the life it sustains. As an academic field of study within the social sciences, however, “Religion and Ecology” is a relatively recent sub- discipline of “Religion Studies.” The claim of ecological consciousness within Hinduism is explored by revisiting the category of ‘Hinduism’ within the context of Religion Studies and by probing Hinduism’s claim of a historically sustained relationship of eco-sensitivity. It asks how this professed worldview, romanticised as it may well be, and in any event so far removed in space and time, can be seen as translating into contemporary vocabulary. We situate this question within the field of Religion and Ecology and the views and cautions of scholars working in the field. This, then, attempts to add to the discussion of the relationship between ecology and the Hindu religion. It proceeds by attempting to further problematize, rather than simply reconcile, by bringing into conversation also eco- feminism. Eco-feminism, which is seen as working to transcend certain value dualisms, is, thus, brought into a space of dialogue with a particular non-dual school of thought in Hinduism, which also looks at transcending the binary dualities of subject-object.

  • Historical Evolution of Temple Tradition in Travancore
    Journal of Xi'an University of Architecture & Technology ISSN No : 1006-7930 Historical Evolution of Temple Tradition in Travancore. Dr. P.Justin Paul, Assistant Professor, Department of History, Govt. Arts College (Autonomous), Kumbakonam. Abstract: Basically, temple architecture tradition of Travancore comes within the mainstream of Indian temple building tradition. Though, in the detailed articulation of its formal structure Travancore temple follows its own indigenous methods, the basic conceptions are not something different or extraneous from the total cultural developments of the mainland. It has been rightly observed that, “the temple as an institution, was an Aryan gift to the South India and that the so called Travancore school is responsible only for covering the product of the Dravidian tradition. The cultural heritage of any country is seen best exposed in its architectural monuments. The ways in which the buildings are designed, constructed and decorated speak not only the technical and artistic capabilities of the craftmen, but also of the aspirations and visions of the preceptors, for whom the construction is only a medium for thematic expression. Travancore abounds with many such architectural monuments; prehistoric megaliths, tombs, caves, temples, mosques, churches, theatres, houses, palaces and public buildings, built and renovated over centuries representing a panaroma of architectural developments. Volume XII, Issue V, 2020 Page No: 735 Journal of Xi'an University of Architecture & Technology ISSN No : 1006-7930 Key words: Mukkalvattom, Tali, Architecture, Superstructures, Courtyard, Ardhamandapam. Temples in Travancore used to be called in earlier times as mukkalvattom. Later they came to be called ambalam or kshetram or sometimes tali. The Travancore temple has srikovil as its main core, which usually stands in east-west axis and the plan may be square, rectangular, circular, elliptical or apsidal growth plan.
