Chandramouli of the Indian Administrative Service Director of Census Operations, Tamil Nadu Nataraja Temple - Chidambaram The Nataraja temple is located at Chidambaram in Cuddalore District. The Nataraja temple built during 11th century is· the most cel­ ebrated of the South Indian saivite temples. Lord Natar9ja is the family deity of King Vikrama Chola (1128) and his successors. He spent the bulk of his revenue for construction of the walls and the structure of the temple and made sumptuous gifts in gold to the structure. Chidambaram rose in popularity due to its proximity to Gangaikonda Cholapuram, built and made as the capital of the Imperial Cholas, by Rajendra Chola. The presiding deity of the temple, Lord Siva, is represented by air, one of five elements and is known as Akasa Lingam. The great three Tamil saints Appar, Sundarar and Sambandar have visited the temple and their hymns are in praise of the temple and the Divine Dancer, Lord Nataraja. The Nataraja image in its various forms really holds the devotees as well as the tourists in ecstasy, Rodin, the modern sculptor of interna­ tional repute highly praised the form and art and the concept of Di­ vine Dance of Lord Nataraja.

The publication, which is brought out for each district, contains several demographic and socio-economic characteristics village-wise and town-wise of the district alongwith the status of availability of civic amenities, infrastructural facilities, etc. The scope of the DCHB was initially confined to a few Census Tables and Primary Census Abstract (PCA) of each village and town within the district. Thereafter, at successive censuses, its scope and coverage has been enlarged. The DCHB published at the 1961 census provided a descriptive account of the district, administrative statistics, census tables and a village and town directory including PCA. The 1971 census­ DCHB series was in three parts: Part-A related to village and town directory, Part-B to village and town PCA and Part-C comprised analytical report, administrative statistics, district census tables and certain analytical tables based on PCAand amenity data in respect ofviUages. The 1981 census DCHB was in two parts: Part-A contained village and town directory and Part-B the PCAofvillage and town including the SCs and STs PCA up to tahSil/town levels. New features alongwith restructuring of the formats of village and town directory were added into it. In Village Directory, all amenities except electricity were brought together and if any amenity was not available in the referent village, the distance in broad ranges from the nearest place having such an amenity, was given. Information on new items such as adult literacy centres, primary health sub-centres and community health workers in the village were provided so as to meet the requirements of some of the Revised Minimum Needs Programme.

    International Journal of Social Science and Economic Research ISSN: 2455-8834 Volume:03, Issue:09 "September 2018" DESIRE FOR ADDITIONAL CHILDREN - STUDY AMONG CURRENTLY MARRIED WOMEN IN RURAL TAMIL NADU Dr. Kh. Bimolata devi Department of Population Studies, Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar, Tamil Nadu. ABSTRACT Fertility desires and intentions are central in theoretical and empirical approaches to studying childbearing behavior. Coal’s (1973) seminal formulation of demographic transition theory argues that fertility will decline when childbearing enters the “calculus of conscious choice”– that is, when having children becomes a subject about which it is possible to have preferences. India is a multi–religious multi lingual and multi ethnic country with vast socio cultural differentials which have strong bearing on the fertility preference. The main objectives of present study were to study level of desire for children, to study the differentials in additional desire of children among the respondents and to examine the effect of socio-cultural factors on desire for additional children of currently married women in rural Tamil nadu. This study was based on a field survey conducted partularly in the Schedule Caste community of Bhuvanagiri Block under the Chidambaram Taluk Cuddalore District in Tamil particularly Nadu. A simple random sampling techniques was adopted to select the sample population The total sample size was 253 women those who were in the age 18 -30 at least having one live birth has been selected Statistical methods such as percentage, cross tabulation, Chi-square and logistic regression techniques have been used The result shows that nearly two third of the respondents (62.8%) have expressed that they does not want any more children in future.

  • The Architectural and Cultural Heritage of Chidambaram Nataraja Temple - a Study
    © 2019 JETIR June 2019, Volume 6, Issue 6 www.jetir.org (ISSN-2349-5162) THE ARCHITECTURAL AND CULTURAL HERITAGE OF CHIDAMBARAM NATARAJA TEMPLE - A STUDY Dr. P. Selvamani Assistant Professor Department of History Annamalai University, Annamalai Nagar – 608002. The celebrated Nataraja temple at Chidambaram or Tillai as it is otherwise called, of Cuddalore District in Tamil Nadu is too well known to all.1 Chidambaram, known from time immemorial as ‘Koyil’ (the temple) has also other names such as Sitrambalam, Puliyur, Chitrakoota, Perumbarapuliyur, Pundareekapuram.2 From the early beginning of the origin of the Nataraja temple at Chidambaram, the most famed of five southern temples dedicated to Siva, represent Him as the deity of five elements – Earth (Kanchipuram) Water (Thiruvannaikkal), Fire (Tiruvannamalai), Air (Kalahasthi) and Ether (Chidambaram). At Chidambaram, Siva is represented as the element of Ether (Akasha).3 Chidambaram is the centre of the Saivite cult. The temple complex covers a vast area and is located in the centre of the city. The name is derived from the most important portion of the Nataraja temple, called ‘Chit-Ambala’ meaning the ‘atmosphere of wisdom’, or Mystic Hall.4 This concedes within itself the secret symbol of God. When a veil over a semi-circular doorway in the ‘sanctum sanctorum’ is parted, it reveals more ‘ethereal space’ - symbolic of Siva in His manifestation of the “Formless Form” in “invisible presence” - a profound indication of a solution to the mystery of life, which is explained in one word - “Nothingness”.5 The temple is a perfect synthesis of two concepts - Siva as the cosmic dancer and Siva as “Akasha Linga” totally formless - “Chit-Ambaram” literally means the “Ether of Knowledge”.
