  • Der Tag Im Süden Kreuzfahrt
    Der Tag im Süden Der Tag im Süden beinhaltet die Highlights der Insel Mauritius im Süden und Südwesten in einer Tour. Eine vielbesuchte Touristenattraktion ist in Curepipe der Krater Trou aux Cerfs, ein alltägliches Ziel der Jogger von Curepipe. Der Krater Trou aux Cerfs gilt als Monogenetic, das heisst er hatte nur einen Ausbruch bisher. Momentan ist er geologisch schlafend, kann aber in den nächsten 1000 Jahren wieder aktiv werden. Weitere Krater finden sich beim Bassin Blanc, Trou Kanaka und dem Grand Bassin. L`escalier ist mit etwa 20000 Jahren die letzte und damit jüngste Vulkanische Aktivität. Durch seine Höhenlage von etwa 600m bietet der Kamm des Kraterrandes ein herrlichen Blick auf Curepipe sowie das bergige Umland. Wenn das Wetter mitspielt sind hier fast alle Berge von Mauritius in voller Schönheit zu erblicken, ganz in der Nähe Tross Mamelles, Montagne du Rempart und der Corps de Garde. Im Norden sind es der Le Pouce und der Peter Both. Ein kleiner Spaziergang um dem Krater mit seinen etwas mehr als 200m bietet Ihnen einen fantastischen Rundumblick. Grand Bassin Der etwa 2km östlich von Le Pétrin gelegene Kratersee, von den Hindus auch Ganga Talao (See des Ganges) genannt, ist die größte hinduistische Pilgerstätte außerhalb Indiens. Am Eingang von Ganga Talao befindet sich seit 2007 eine 33 m hohe Shiva-Statue. Dies ist die höchste Statue von Mauritius. Bei ihr handelt es sich um eine Kopie der Statue vom Sursagar Talav-See im indischen Vadodara. Auf der anderen Straßenseite befindet sich eine weitere ebenfalls 33 m hohe Statue, die Durga Maa Bhavani zeigt.

  • Maha Shivaratri
    Maha Shivaratri Maha Shivaratri (Maha Shivratri, Maha Sivaratri, Shivaratri, Sivaratri) is a festival that is dedicated to the worship Lord Shiva on the 13th or 14th day of the Hindu month of Maagha or Phalguna. The festival usually occurs in the month of February or March and is observed for one day and night only. The festival of 'Maha Shivratri' which literally translates to 'the greatest night of Shiva' is one of the most splendidly celebrated festivals across India. But, why is Shivratri celebrated? There is more than one Mahashivaratri story surrounding this occasion. Here are a few: • One is that Lord Shiva married Parvati on this day. So, it is a celebration of this sacred union. • Another is that when the Gods and demons churned the ocean together to obtain ambrosia that lay in its depths, a pot of poison emerged. Lord Shiva consumed this poison, saving both the Gods and mankind. The poison lodged in the Lord’s throat, turning him blue. To honor the savior of the world, Shivratri is celebrated. • One more legend is that as Goddess Ganga descended from heaven in full force, Lord Shiva caught her in his matted locks, and released her on to Earth as several streams. This prevented destruction on Earth. As a tribute to Him, the Shivalinga is bathed on this auspicious night. • Also, it is believed that the formless God Sadashiv appeared in the form of a Lingodhbhav Moorthi at midnight. Hence, people stay awake all night, offering prayers to the God. A student's experience of celebrating Maha Shiviratri I came from Mauritius and Maha Shivaratri is celebrated during the new moon and during this period of time most Hindus will start there pilgrimage to the sacred lake of Ganga Talao located in Grande Bassin.

  • The Deictics of Authenticity in Religious Performance
    Mediality and materiality in religious performance: Religion as heritage in Mauritius Patrick Eisenlohr Centre for Modern Indian Studies University of Göttingen [Forthcoming in Material Religion] Abstract: In Mauritius religious performance often doubles as officially recognized diasporic heritage, institutionalized as a component of Mauritians´ “ancestral cultures.” Such forms of religious expression not only point to a source of authority outside Mauritius but also play a key role in legitimizing claims on Mauritian citizenship. In this paper I examine two kinds of practices that help to instantiate religious links as heritage, ritual performance combined with the cultivation of “ancestral language” in the context of a Hindu pilgrimage, and the role of sound reproduction techniques in popularizing a particular genre of Islamic devotional poetry. I argue that these embodied and material practices illustrate two contrasting modes of engaging with spatially and temporally removed sources of authenticity. While the pilgrimage aims at naturalizing diasporic links through their objectification and iconization, uses of sound reproduction technology in Islamic devotional contexts establish links to sources of religious authority under the assumption that the medium used is relatively transparent. Ultimately, the modalities of materiality presupposed in the ethnographic examples account for the authenticating effect of religion as heritage. Key words: Diaspora, Hinduism, Islam, media, ritual, religious authority Frequently, the notions of heritage
