  • Making Attributes in the Streets of Indian Religious Cities
    International Journal of Civil Engineering and Technology (IJCIET) Volume 9, Issue 11, November 2018, pp. 1548–1557, Article ID: IJCIET_09_11_150 Available online at http://iaeme.com/Home/issue/IJCIET?Volume=9&Issue=11 ISSN Print: 0976-6308 and ISSN Online: 0976-6316 © IAEME PublicationScopus Indexed PLACE- MAKING ATTRIBUTES IN THE STREETS OF INDIAN RELIGIOUS CITIES Meeta Tandon Associate Professor Faculty of Architecture and Planning, Integral University, Lucknow, India Vandana Sehgal Professor, Faculty of Architecture, Dr.A.P.J.AbdulKalam Technical University, Lucknow, India ABSTRACT The research paper aims to analyse the perception of people about the components of sense of place in Indian streets leading to the temple complex in religious cities of Mathura and Vrindavan, both being important places for devotees of Lord Krishna. The traditional streets on which the temples are located have a distinct character and there seems to be a strong sense of attachment to the place amongst the pilgrims and the residents alike. A contemporary street may not have a similar character but might be more functional. The study of both the traditional (Mathura) and newer contemporary street (Vrindavan) can help us to arrive at strategies and learning from both to strengthen and enhance sense of place. To achieve at the objectives of research, a face to face structured questionnaire survey was conducted. The results indicate that the contemporary streets have scored high not only in the physical and functional components but also in socio-cultural and perceptual components as compared to traditional streets implying that the streets are more than just a transit to the temple.

  • History of Dwaraka
    Quotes Basics Science History Social Other Search h o m e d w a r a k a c o n t e n t s Hindu Epics such as Mahabharata have often been described as myths. “On the same day that Krishna departed from the earth the powerful dark-bodied Kali Age descended. The oceans rose and submerged the whole of Dwaraka.“ According to Vishnu Purana - Dwaraka was submerged by the sea right after the death of Lord Krishna. This was regarded as a grandiose metaphor, part of a story filled with great myths. In the early eighties an important archaeological site was found in India, at Dwaraka, the site of the legendary city of Lord Krishna. Now, it is discovered that the whole coast of western India sank by nearly 40 feet around 1500 B.C. E. Why is that the rediscovery of Dwaraka has not attracted the same degree of attention in the West, as that of ancient Troy by Heinrich Schliemann? The first clear historical record is dated 574 A.D. and occurs in the Palitana Plates of Samanta Simhaditya. This inscription refers to Dwaraka as the capital of the western coast of Saurashtra and still more important, states that Sri Krishna lived here. The establishment of one of the four of his pithas at Dwaraka by Sankaracharya attests to the great religious sanctity the place must have attained by the eighth century A.D. Dr. S R Rao has written: "The discovery of the legendary city of Dwaraka which is said to have been founded by Sri Krishna, is an important landmark in the history of India.

  • Puranas, Lord Jagannath Was Originally Worshipped As Lord Neela Madhaba, by a Savar Tribal Chief, Named Viswavasu
    Newsletter Archives www.dollsofindia.com Char Dham - The Four Most Sacred Pilgrimages of Hindus Copyright © 2016, DollsofIndia Char Dham, literally meaning, four pilgrimage sites, are the temples that are among the most highly venerated Hindu Vaishnavite temples in India. These four places of pilgrimage, which were defined by Adi Shankaracharya, include Puri, Rameswaram, Dwarka and Badrinath. Hindus consider it a great fortune to visit the Char Dham during their lifetime. Till the mid- 20th century, other pilgrimage sites in the Indian State of Uttarakhand, namely, Yamunotri, Gangotri and Kedarnath, were known as Chota Char Dham. But not, these sites have also been referred to as the Char Dham. The Creation of the Char Dham The Four Shankaracharya Peeths at the Char Dham school of Hinduism gave rise to at least four Hindu Mathas or monastic establishments. The great saint/seer organized the monks under the four Mathas, headquartered at Jagannatha Puri (in the East), Sringeri Sharada Peetham (in the South), Dwarka (in the West) and Badrikashrama (in the North). Each one of these Peethams was headed by one of the shishyas, who oversaw the entire functioning of his respective Matha. Let us now look at each of these temples in detail: The Puri Jagannath Temple Puri Dham Temple Puri is located in the Eastern side of India, in the state of Odisha. Puri is one of the most ancient cities in the East and is situated along the coast of the Bay of Bengal. Puri is the site of the Govardhana Matha. The main temple is about 1000 years old and was constructed in the 12th century by Raja Anantavarman Chodaganga Deva.

  • Lord Krishna-The Jagat Guru
    [Draw your reader in with an engaging abstract. It is typically a short summary of the document. When you’re ready to add your content, just click here and start typing.] Lord Krishna- the Jagat Guru K Sriram Sri Ramana Bhaktha Samajam Chennai Lord Krishna– The Jagat Guru [Loka Maha Guru] Devaki Paramanandam Vasudeva sudam Devam Kamsa Chanoora MardanamI Devaki Paramanandam Sri krishnam vande Jagat GurumII The One who was born to Vasudeva, the One who annihilated Kamsa & Chanoora, the One whose very name plunges his mother Devaki into ecstacy, To Him, the Loka Maha Guru, Lord Krishna, I pay my humble obeisance. Page 1 of 9 Introduction It is surprising to note that Lord Krishna’s life represents the average person of today. Brought up in a lower middle class family, the small boy spends his entire time in his studies under very trying circumstances. Higher studies take him to the cities and even overseas. His circumstances change totally when he converts his Knowledge into Experience. Experience takes him to corridors of Power which, again, lands him in a completely different atmosphere. His later days don’t even remotely resemble his childhood days. He could hardly return to his native village which was his dwelling place as a child. Finally, he leaves the world as a loner in yet another totally different atmosphere. Lord Krishna’s life exactly corresponds to such a life of an average person today in spite of the fact that 5000 years have elapsed since his appearance on this planet. He was brought up in a cowherd’s family as a child.
