  • Walking the Faithscapes of Varanasi, India Pilgrimage of the Panchkroshi Yatra

    Walking the Faithscapes of Varanasi, India Pilgrimage of the Panchkroshi Yatra

    WALKING THE FAITHSCAPES OF VARANASI, INDIA PILGRIMAGE OF THE PANCHKROSHI YATRA BY SALONI CHAWLA THESIS Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Landscape Architecture in Landscape Architecture in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Advisers: Professor D. Fairchild Ruggles, Chair Dr. Aneesha Dharwadker Assistant Professor Jessica Birkenholtz ABSTRACT Sacred landscapes in India play a pivotal role in the celebration of religious traditions and the mythological stories associated with them. A pilgrimage is an act of journeying to the sacred landscapes primarily for religious reasons and spiritual benefits but is not limited to them. Pilgrimages have various types of paths like circular, linear, spiral, converging at a central point, etc. Circular pilgrimage like the Panchkroshi in Varanasi, India, ends at the same point it started, thus forming an endless loop. The Panchkroshi Pilgrimage is about circumambulating around the holy territory, along a 25-mile long route, protected by 108 shrines of Hindu gods and goddesses. There are a number of goals identified for performing a pilgrimage, with the most important being the attainment of divine salvation. The act of achieving these goals is to walk through the sacred landscapes of the pilgrimage. However, with rapid urbanization and lack of preservation, these heritage landscapes have suffered degradation. The pilgrimage path has become fragmented, breaking the continuity and flow of movement. The pilgrimage route has become a palimpsest of urban residential, commercial zones, state and national highways with no designated pathway for pilgrims to walk on. My master’s in landscape architecture has contributed immensely towards the sensitivity I feel for the environment.

Inside, in the sanctum, you can find a Shiva Linga made of marble surrounded by around 646 statues making it look spellbinding. Lakshmana Temple Khajuraho One word description that surrounds this particular temple of Khajuraho is Magnificent. Lakshmana Temple appears similar to Kandariya Mahadev Temple, however, it is the oldest and the largest in the Western Group of Temples. It is a must visit shrine that will certainly captivate the beholder through its intricately carved statues and the adhisthana (lower platform) that will levitate your heart seeing its beautiful work of art. Lakshmana Temple is dedicated to Lord Vishnu and inside the shrine, you can witness a beautiful female bracket figure and a high carved ceiling at the entrance porch of the temple.

At presnet there are approximatly 400 million plus cities across the world with a majority of them in the developing world. Varanasi city is one of them. Varanasi is one of the oldest living cities in the world and has evolved organically with time to become an important center of art and education. Located on the banks of river Ganges, Varanasi has been witness to flooding issues in the past. The organic growth has lead to uneven distribution of service across the city. The high urbanization trends in the recnt times coupled with ad-hoc planning and rise in frequency of climate related disasters calls for a systematic approach to tackle the future climatic hazard risks. This study is an attempt to provide base information for building city’s resilience by identifying the root cause of vulnerabilites with a multi stakeholder approach. The study is based on questionnaire surveys at city, zone and ward level covering the five resilience-based dimensions (Physical, Social, Economic, Institutional and Natural) in which every dimension has five linked parameters. These five parameters are again connected to five sets of variables. All 125 variables are used to assess the city’s resilience using weighted mean scores for variables, parameters and dimensions.
