  • Representation and Spatial Practice in Varanasi (India)
    Sacred Journeys and Profane Travellers: Representation and Spatial Practice in Varanasi (India) Cristiana Zara Degree of Doctor of Philosophy December 2011 DEPARTMENT OF GEOGRAPHY ROYAL HOLLOWAY, UNIVERSITY OF LONDON Declaration of Authorship I Cristiana Zara hereby declare that this thesis and the work presented in it is entirely my own. Where I have consulted the work of others, this is always clearly stated. 2 ABSTRACT This thesis is concerned with tourist representations and practices in India. Orientalist aesthetics have often associated this country with notions of spirituality and mysticism; tourist narratives sustain and reinforce such representations by describing India as a land of ancient rituals and timeless traditions. The visual construction of India’s ‘spiritual landscapes’ has been largely deployed as a powerful tool for subduing the unfamiliar Other within reassuring epistemological categories. However, tourism research has recently become interested in exploring the role of tourist practices in landscape production. Not only do tourists ‘gaze upon’ landscapes, they also script landscapes through practices and performances. By focusing on the case of Varanasi, the Indian pilgrimage city on the banks of the Ganges, this thesis shows how tourist practices (re)produce and make sense of the city’s ‘sacredscape’. Special attention is paid to the riverfront, which epitomizes the cultural and spiritual significance ascribed to the city. Both Hindu and tourist narratives depict the riverfront as embodying a special power, a unique meaning, whether this uniqueness is held to be a ‘spiritual’ or a ‘picturesque’ one. The thesis analyses the city’s riverfront as the place where tourist, ritual, and day-to-day activities are played out and negotiated, and where the aesthetics of landscape is confronted with the materialities and the practices inherent to this place.

  • Theology of Karman
    ERIK REENBERG SAND Theology of Karman Merit, death and release in the case of Varanasi, India The motives of pilgrims Pilgrimage has, of course, many aspects worth studying. To mention a few; one may focus on the ritual aspect and study pilgrimage as a ritual pro cess, focus sing on the various rituals being performed by the pilgrims on the way to their goal, or, once they have reached their goal, either by the pilgrims or by ritual specialists. One may also focus on the experiential or psychological, or on the social aspects of pilgrimage. Or, one may focus on a combination of all of these aspects, as, for example, is the case with the studies of Victor Turner (Turner 1973, 1974; Turner & Turner 1978). In this article, I shall focus on the question as to what motives the pil­ grims may have for performing pilgrimage, and, in doing this, I shall be deal­ ing especi ally with the Hindu tradition, namely with pilgrimage to Varanasi, Banaras or Kāśī, which is often considered the Hindu sacred city par excel­ lence by both Hindus and Westerners alike. Today, Varanasi is a medium sized Indian town at the confluences of the Gaṅgā, Varuṇa and Asi rivers, situated 82° 56’E – 83° 03’E and 25° 14’N – 25° 23.5’N in the South Eastern corner of Uttar Pradesh, the most populous state of India. According to the 2001 census, the town itself has a little more than 1.1 million inhabitants and covers approximately 112 square kilometers and is the centre of the Varanasi district with more than 3.1 million inhabitants (Census 2001).

Varanasi is situated on the bank of the holy river Ganges. Most famous temple of Lord Shiva, the Kashi Vishwanath temple, one of the twelve Jyotirligas, is located here. Tourists, not only from various parts of India but also those from foreign countries all over the world, visit this place very frequently. Sarnath, the famous Baudh Pilgrimage is situated very close by, at a distance of about 8 Kms only. This is the place where Lord Buddha delivered his first Preaching. Varanasi is also famous for its cottage industry, handicraft and products thereof, including world famous Benarasi sarees too. Varanasi Division of North Eastern Railway was formed on 01.05.1969. The main routes of the division on Broad Gauge Line comprise of Gorakhpur-Chhapra, Bhatni-Allahabad City, Chhapra-Aunrihar, Mau-Shahganj, Gorakhpur- Paniyahwa, Indara-Phephna, Aunrihar-Jaunpur , Kaptanganj-Thawe and Chhapra Kachery-Thawe sections, while Indara-Dohri Ghat is only Meter Gauge section.

State:Uttar Pradesh -Introduction 4 3. Field Visits (i) Visit to Allahabad District 6 (ii) Visit to Kaushambi District 20 (iii) Visit to Varanasi District 39 (iv) Visit to Lucknow District 51 Dates of Visit:- 02.9.13 to 06.9.13 Team Members: 1. Dr. H.V.L Bathla, Chief Consultant (NHM), MoA, GoI, New Delhi. 2. Dr. A.K. Dubey, Professor CSAUA&T Kanpur. 3. Dr. Bhagwan Deen, Associate Professor NDUA&T Faizabad, 2 General Observations: There is delay in supply of planting material particularly tissue culture banana saplings to the farmers. Timely supply of planting material need to be ensured to the farmers because delayed planting of banana adversely affects the productivity as younger plants are more susceptible to frost. The infrastructure facilities like laboratories, equipments, net houses, poly houses etc created with the support of NHM at Banaras Hindu University and Horticulture Department of the State Government should be used for the benefit of the farmers also. Field visits and interaction of JIT with farmers revealed that farmers have not been advised properly by grass root level technical staffs accountable for execution of NHM. Rather than area expansion, emphasis should be given on rejuvenation of senile orchards, post harvest management, mechanization, establishment of processing units and plant nurseries. There is an immediate need to intensify the guava canopy management programme in Banaras and Allahabad districts. The benefits have been repeated either to the same farmers or to the members of same family.
