  • Thai Kingship During the Ayutthaya Period : a Note on Its Divine Aspects Concerning Indra*
    Thai Kingship during the Ayutthaya Period : A Note on Its Divine Aspects Concerning Indra* Woraporn Poopongpan Abstract This article is an initial attempt to highlight the divine aspects of Thai kingship during the Ayutthaya period, the interesting characteristic of which was an association of the king’s divinity with the Buddhist and Brahman god, Indra. Thai concept of the king’s divinity was identified closely with many Brahman gods such as Narayana, Rama or Siva (Isuan) but the divine aspects concerning Indra had a special place in Thai intellectual thinking as attested by ceremonies associated with the kingship recorded in Palatine Law and other sources. Thai kingship associated with Indra was reflected in the following elements: 1. The Royal ceremonies 2. The names of Indra’s residences 3. The number of the king’s consorts The article concludes that the emphasis on the king’s divine being as Indra derived not only from the influence of Brahmanism on the Thai society but more importantly from the high status of Indra in Buddhist belief. This can be easily understood since Buddhism is the main religion of Thai society. While some aspects * This article is based on the PhD dissertation “The Palatine Law as a source for Thai History from Ayutthaya period to 1805”, Submitted to the Department of History, Chulalongkorn University. It would not have been possible without considerable helps and valuable guidance from Dr. Dhiravat na Pombejra, my advisor, and all kind helps from Miss Apinya Odthon, my close friend. Silpakorn University International Journal Vol.7 : 143-171, 2007 Ayutthaya Thai Kingship Concerning Indra Silpakorn University International Journal Vol.7, 2007 of kingship are derived from Brahmanic Indra because Thailand adopted several conceptions of state and kingship from India, it was the Thai Buddhist understanding of Indra as a supporter of the Buddha that had a more significant impact.

That influence is clear and wide-spread, nay almost universal, and it is with justice that we speak of Further India and the Dutch call their colonies Neerlands Indië. For some early chapters in the story of this expansion the dates and details are meagre, but on the whole the investigator's chief difficulty is to grasp and marshal the mass of facts relating to the development of religion and civilization in this great region.

    “Om Sri Lakshmi Narashimhan Nahama” Valmiki Ramayana – Bala Kanda – Chapter 35 Vishvamitra Narrates the Origin of the Ganges Summary Sage Vishvamitra along with others reach the banks of River Ganga and they make their sojourn [for a temporary stay] on that riverbank. There when Rama inquisitively [curiously] enquires about River Ganga Vishvamitra narrates the legend of Ganga, as to how she is taken to heavens by Gods from her father Himalayas. Chapter [Sarga] 35 in Detail upaasya raatri shesam tu shonaa kuule maharsibhih | nishaayaam suprabhaataayaam vishvaamitro abhyabhaasata || 1-35-1 On sojourning [staying temporarily] the remaining night on the bank of river Sona along with great-sages, Visvamitra spoke when that night is elapsing into a sunny daybreak.

  • NOTES on the SIAMESE THEATRE by Mahii Vajiravudh with a BRIEF INTRODUCTION by H.H
    NOTES ON THE SIAMESE THEATRE by Mahii Vajiravudh WITH A BRIEF INTRODUCTION by H.H. Prince Dhaninivat, Kromamun Bidyalabh The commentary by His late Majesty King Rama VI on the Theatre of Siam, published as Group XIV in Siam and its Productions, Arts) and Munufactures; a Descriptive Catalogue of the Siamese Section at the International Exhibition of Industry and Labour held in Turin April 29-November 19, 1917 edited by Colonel Gerini, classified contempo­ rary entertainments into five types: the Like, the Hun, the Nav, the Lagor and the Khan. The Like, derived from some kind of Islamic recitation, had been popularised, losing its original purport of religion and becoming merely a parody of the more dignified and graceful Lagor. The Hun was at the time of the King's writing, and very much more so now, almost non-existant. It survived in a simplified form of the Hun Krabok (cylindrical marionettes) with a contemporary repertoire to suit the more popular taste as the Nora of the Peninsula resorts now to topics of present-day happenings: as the coup d'etat of 1932 with its leader represented as a clown. The Nav proper has almost disappeared, though like the Hun it survives in name through the southern variety called Na,.,:; Taluv which bears no resemblance to its classical prototype save that it too is exhibited on a screen. The royal author went on to describe the Lagor and the Khan which he rightly considered as the legitimate drama. The material here has been carefully studied and so well presented that there is hardly anything to add or improve upon.

  • The Mahabharata (The Great TOP ROW, LEFT to RIGHT Chronicle of the Bharata Dynasty)
    The Mahabharata (The Great TOP ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT Chronicle of the Bharata Dynasty) Wood, cloth, and mixed media From The Mimi and John Herbert Collection Though the stories used in rod-puppet (wayang golek) performances have been derived from many sources, the majority are loosely based Ghatotkacha Ghatotkacha Ghatotkacha Ghatotkacha Ghatotkacha Ghatotkacha on the Indian epic the Mahabharata. This tale revolves around the (Gatotkaca), (Gatotkaca), (Gatotkaca), (Gatotkaca), (Gatotkaca), (Gatotkaca), son of Bhima son of Bhima son of Bhima son of Bhima son of Bhima son of Bhima conflicts between the Pandava brothers and their cousins, the Kaurava Approx. 1984– Approx. 1950 Approx. 1960 Perhaps 1800– Approx. 1960 Approx. 1970 brothers, a rivalry that culminates in a devastating battle.

As depicted in puppet theater, the heroes of the Mahabharata are not without fault. Likewise, the villains of the stories have complex MIDDLE ROW, LEFT TO RIGHT personalities; many have admirable qualities and struggle with divided loyalties. Indian stories were often modified for local Javanese audiences, and sometimes new narratives involving beloved characters from the epics were invented. A favorite character in Java is Ghatotkacha, the son of the Pandava brother Bhima and the giantess Hidhimbi.
