  • Bhaktapur Card Article
    The Town of Bhaktapur - A Study of Structural Changes over Time - Prof. Sudarshan Raj Tiwari Department of Architecture Introduction: Why a study of Bhaktapur ? The presence of non-Sanskrit speaking and possibly non-Vedic Kirats in the Kathmandu Valley since long before its Lichchhavi takeover around the first century AD is now generally recognized. However little or no physical remains of this period have been discerned from archaeological explorations. Kirat funerary mounds are strewn all over the valley. Few of them, like the 'thudos' of Patan have been meekly recognized by some authors including Mary Slusser. Many road side stone, quite a few 'Kuldevata' stones and some 'Kumaries' on mounds near rivers or just out of towns are possibly also Kirat funerary sites1. Existence of several non-Sanskrit place names, administrative office titles, river names in Lichchhavi inscription is generally cited as proof of developed state of the valley during the Kirat rule. Particularly as some settlements continued to go by their non-Lichchhavi name even after long period of Sanskritization, it would be logical to assume that socially closely knit original settlers and their settlements continued strongly in their original sites even after the change of ruling houses. This paper looks into the structure of the town of Bhaktapur, the first capital town of the Malla with an objective to establish its link to its structure in Kirat and Lichchhavi days. Bhaktapur should provide a possibility of discerning Kirat structure of town, since Lichchhavis do not seem to have materially intervened in the general area. It is also logical to assume that since the Mallas chose to make their capital in Bhaktapur, that their social costoms were close to the original settlers and possibly Malla modifications to the structure of Bhaktapur was sympathetic to the existing structure.

  • Dakshinachara and Vamachara
    Thiruvarur - Dakshinachara and Vamachara In all faiths of the world believing in some deity of the other, there definitely comes a stage when the said deity is viewed as the very creator of the world, the universe and everything in it. Thus, as the very source of creation, the deity is viewed akin to a Mother, where the universe and all its contents forms Her child. However, there is one tradition that directly centers on the Universal Mother in this very role itself, as the major deity. This is the tradition of Sri Vidya of Hinduism, which has remained a lofty, esoteric, sacred and protected tradition due to its directness of approach and absence of pretense. Some of the highest divinities of Hinduism, including the very trinity of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva are seen to be disciples and propagators of this tradition, which views the Universal Mother as Lalitha Ambika, translated as the Playful Mother. In this tradition, historically, one understands that the various approaches to Lalitha Ambika are broadly grouped into two categories - the right-handed Dakshinachara, and the left-handed Vamachara. Within their fold, they also include the equivalence dominated Samayachara and body-centric Kaulachara traditions respectively. Looking beyond the mysteries, misconceptions and controversies surrounding the perception of these approaches, one understands that the right and left handed approaches correspond by and large to internalised and externalised modes of worship respectively. The common aim of both systems is to attain Lalitha Ambika, who as the Absolute Parabrahman, is nothing but the Atman or the Self. This Self, also seen as Being-Consciousness-Bliss or Sat-Chit-Aanandam, is that blissful state underlying the three states of waking ‘Jaagara’, dream ‘Svapna’ and deep dreamless sleep ‘Sushupti’, metaphorically referred to as the three cities or Tripura, and hence, Lalitha Ambika is also called “Maha Tripura Sundari” or the Supreme Beauty of the Three Cities.

    Navaratri Navadurga Sadhana 2019 [This year in the US Navaratri lasts only 8 days, as there is no edited by official Dwitiya Tithi (second lunar day). So the sadhanas for Swami Bhajanananda Saraswati both Shalaputri and Brahmacharini should be done today.] PRATIMA TITHI Devi Shailaputri Sunday, September 29th After Her self-immolation in Her incarnation as Sati, Para- Shakti took birth as Parvati, the daughter of the Himalaya. In Sanskrit shaila means mountain, due to which the Goddess is known as Shailaputri, the daughter of the mountain. She is visualized as riding the bull Nandi and holding a trident and lotus. She wears the crescent moon in Her hair. She resides within our body at the base of spine (mulladhara chakra), rules the earth element (prithvi-tattva), and the moon (Chandra). She is invoked on the first day of Navaratri (pratima tithi). Her blessings inspire us to begin our spiritual journey and gives us encouragement along the way.
