  • Chapter Two: Places of Prayers in Pune
    Chapter Two: Places of prayers in Pune 2.1 Introduction After the discussion regarding the dynamic relation between music and religion in the first chapter, two points are taken up for discussion in this chapter – 1. Religions and cults of faith in Pune – a brief history and 2. A general outline of places of prayer in Pune Being the cultural capital of Maharashtra, the city of Pune has always remained an important centre for devotional musical activities. For the last seven hundred years, in the vicinity of Pune, the unbroken tradition of Naradiya, Warkari and Ramdasi tradition of devotional music has embellished both, the sentiments of the devotees and the ears of connoisseurs. Arati, Haridasi Keertan, Warkari Abhanga - Bhajan, Owi, Abhang, Wasudev Geet, Waghya- Murali Geet, Gondhal, Jogawa, Bharud, etc. practiced by Hindus and other forms practiced by various other religions1. There are many other religious beliefs besides Hindu religion in Pune. One finds numerous Muslim Mosques and Dargah-s, Christian churches and chapels, Parsee Agiaries, Jain temples, Buddhist Vihar-s, etc. in Pune. In all these places of prayer, different kinds of music have been performed. This chapter deals with the historical review of the religious spaces in Pune, where music has been performed. 1 Ramachandra Dekhane, in Tikekar, 2000 (vol.2): pp. 19-20 30 2.2 Historical perspective on religions and the places of prayer in Pune The earliest archaeological evidence of the habitation of Pune occurs in copper plate of the Rashtrakoot King Krishnaraj, dated 758 AD. In this copper plate, there is a mention of King Krishnaraj‟s donation of Bopakhalu village in the Punya Vishay (Pune district) to a Brahmin called Poogadi Bhat on the occasion of a solar eclipse on Ashwin Amawasya Shake 670.

  • The Synagogues of Kerala: Their Architecture, History, Context, and Meaning
    The Synagogues of Kerala: Their Architecture, History, Context, and Meaning by Jay Arthur Waronker This thesis/dissertation document has been electronically approved by the following individuals: MacDougall,Bonnie Graham (Chairperson) Chusid,Jeffrey M. (Minor Member) THE SYNAGOGUES OF KERALA, INDIA: THEIR ARCHITECTURE, HISTORY, CONTEXT, AND MEANING A Thesis Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts by Jay Arthur Waronker August 2010 ©2010 Jay Arthur Waronker ABSTRACT This thesis sets out to record for the first time the architectural history of the functioning, decomissioned but still standing, and lost synagogues in the southernmost Indian State of Kerala on the Malabar Coast. Throughout India, there are today thirty- five existing or former Jewish houses of prayer, built by distinct communities of Jews, dating from the sixteenth to the twentieth century, and the oldest ones are in Kerala. Early Kerala synagogues, realized during the eleventh through the mid-sixteenth century, no longer exist. The Kerala Jewish community, who are believed to have first settled in and around the ancient port town of Cranganore near the Arabian Sea, suffered rounds of persecution during the medieval and early modern periods. In the process, the Jews had to abandon previously built synagogues. Shifting to various places just outside of Cranganore, the Kerala Jews built new synagogues. While some of these houses of prayer likewise do not survive since the Jews remained in locations temporarily or this newer round of synagogues were also attacked and destroyed by hostile human or natural forces, fortunately synagogue construction from the mid-sixteenth century onwards still stands – albeit often in altered states.

  • Jewish Funerary Architecture in Britain and Ireland Since 1656
    Jewish Historical Studies, volume 43, 2011 Jewish funerary architecture inBritain and Ireland since 1656 SHARMAN KADISH In Hebrew, a Jewish burial ground is referred to by several names: Bet Kevarot 'house of graves', Bet Hayim 'house of life' or Bet Olam 'house of eternity.' According to halakhah (Orthodox Jewish law) it is forbidden to disturb the physical remains of the dead. Burial grounds are regarded as sacred places in perpetuity. Although no great emphasis is placed on the afterlife in Judaism, which is primarily concerned with conduct in the here and now, the concept of Tehiat HaMetim (the Resurrection of theDead) is a basic doctrine. A Jewish burial ground is consecrated ground. In practice, therefore, Jewish burial grounds may not be disturbed through archaeolog? ical investigation or redevelopment. Britain's Jewish community which, since theCromwellian Resettlement of 1656, has never numbered more than about 450,000 people (after the Second World War), down to 267,000 according to the 2001 Census, has a significant legacy of burial grounds scat? tered all over the country. A total of 153 surviving Jewish burial grounds opened between 1690 and 1939 were recorded by the Survey of the Jewish Built Heritage in theUK & Ireland (SJBH).1 The significance of this her? itage as funerary architecture has never before been examined in detail.2 This essay describes the architectural and landscaping features of Jewish ceme? teries inBritain and Ireland, using both typical and unusual examples within a chronological framework. Special attention is paid to the art and symbolism of the Jewish tombstone. Georgian Jewish burial grounds Since London was the natural focus of the seventeenth-century Resettlement and has consistently remained home to about two-thirds of Anglo-Jewry in the modern period, it is not surprising that the oldest burial grounds of Anglo-Jewry are located in the capital.

  • The Last Jews in India and Burma
    www.jcpa.org Jerusalem Letter No. 101 15 April 1988 THE LAST JEWS IN INDIA AND BURMA Nathan Katz and Ellen S. Goldberg End of the Indian Diaspora / Jews of Cochin / The Bene Israel / Mughal Courtiers / Portuguese Marranos / Baghdadi Jews / Jews in Burma / India's Ashkenazim / Tribal Jews / Issues Facing Indian Jewry Today The End of the Indian Diaspora One Shabbat in July 1987, for the first time since the synagogue was built 419 years ago, there was no minyan in the fabled Paradesi Synagogue of Cochin. Since the beginning of 1987, the population of Jew Town, once about 300, has diminished from 33 to 29 due to immigration to Israel. Similar forlorn scenarios are being repeated throughout India. The one remaining Jewish family in North Parur, Kerala, bravely keeps the synagogue's ner tamid (eternal light) burning and gathers each Shabbat for informal prayers. In Puna's best known landmark, the Ohel David Synagogue built by David Sassoon, the Sefer Torah is no longer read for lack of a hazan. In "the grandest synagogue in the East," the Maghen David of Calcutta, a few old Jews of Baghdadi extraction gather weekly; sometimes there is a minyan, sometimes not. The roof leaks badly at Bombay's Maghen David and there is no one to see to its repair. Only two Sifrei Torah remain in Rangoon's Musmeah Yeshua Synagogue where there were once 126 scrolls. Of the more than 25,000 Jews in India at independence, perhaps 5-6,000 remain, and many of them are highly assimilated Bene Israel in Bombay.

  • Ohel David Synagogue Celebrates 150 Yrs Pune, November 2, 2014
    1 Ohel David Synagogue Celebrates 150 yrs Pune, November 2, 2014 The magnificent structure of the Lal Deval or Lal Deul (Red Temple) usually lies deserted, spellbinding the passersby on Ambedkar Road by its august beauty. But on Sunday evening, with all her pomp and ceremony, she elegantly welcomed close to 650 guests into her radiant filled premises and courtyards. A grand reunion for the 100 or so local Jewish population, and for a large number of the Jewish community residing in Mumbai and outside India. The synagogue thronged to its limit, upper and lower galleries, with barely standing room available. Chief Guest presiding was the Honorable Governor of the State of Maharashtra - Mr. Chennamaneni Vidyasagar Rao. He addressed the India-Israel friendship and ties, but especially of the dearth of awareness and information of the Jews in India. The contribution of the Jewish community to Pune and India far exceeds its tiny size."The work of philanthropists like David Sassoon is well known but yet we know very little about him. There should be a chapter on such Jews in the school curriculum in secondary classes." To which he received a warm applause. Israel's Council General to India Mr. David Akov ardently referred to the synagogue as witness to the long-standing ties between the two countries. "This is the most beautiful synagogue I have ever seen. It is a symbol of roots that bond Jews in India and Israel." The founder David Sassoon's sixth generation descendants Rabbi Yaaqob Manasseh and his sister Sarah Manasseh arrived from the USA and the UK respectively.
