  • Guide to 275 SIVA STHALAMS Glorified by Thevaram Hymns (Pathigams) of Nayanmars

He regularly contributes articles on Management, Business, Ancient Temples and Temple Architecture to many leading Dailies and Magazines. His articles for the young is very popular in “The Young World section” of THE HINDU.

His book on “The Path of Ramanuja”, and “The Guide to 108 Divya Desams” in book form on the CD, has been well received in the religious circle. Preface: Tirth Yatras or pilgrimages have been an integral part of Hinduism. Pilgrimages are considered quite important by the ritualistic followers of Sanathana dharma. There are a few centers of sacredness, which are held at high esteem by the ardent devotees who dream to travel and worship God in these holy places. All these holy sites have some mythological significance attached to them. When people go to a temple, they say they go for Darsan – of the image of the presiding deity. The pinnacle act of Hindu worship is to stand in the presence of the deity and to look upon the image so as to see and be seen by the deity and to gain the blessings. There are thousands of Siva sthalams- pilgrimage sites - renowned for their divine images. And it is for the Darsan of these divine images as well the pilgrimage places themselves - which are believed to be the natural places where Gods have dwelled - the pilgrimage is made.

  • AND HINDU(ISM) Positioning Contemporary Eco-Ethic Conversation Maheshvari Naidu 1
    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.
