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.

  • Dynamics of Landuse and Landcover Changes in Papanasam Taluk, Thanjavur District, Tamilnadu, India
    Available online a t www.pelagiaresearchlibrary.com Pelagia Research Library Advances in Applied Science Research, 2016, 7(2):128-131 ISSN: 0976-8610 CODEN (USA): AASRFC Dynamics of landuse and landcover changes in Papanasam Taluk, Thanjavur District, Tamilnadu, India G. Laxmi, K. Indhira, J. Senthil * and P. H. Anand Department of Geography, Govt. Arts College (A), Kumbakonam, Tamil Nadu, India _____________________________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT Remote sensing has been in common use to provide the primary data from which land use and land cover types and their boundaries are for interpretation purpose. During the past four decades several surveys, studies, and other projects have successfully demonstrated that remote sensing data are useful for land use and land cover inventory and mapping. These surveys have contributed to our confidence that land use and land cover surveys of larger areas are possible by the use of remote sensing data bases. It has been argued in this paper that a systematic analysis of local-scale land-use change studies, conducted over a range of timescale.
