  • Kīrtipandita and the Tantras
    PSharrock_V9_Udaya_X 1/9/2012 8:53 AM Page 203 KĪRTIPANDITA• • AND THE TANTRAS Peter D. Sharrock School of Oriental and African Studies, University of London Little is known about the doctrines and rituals of the religions of ancient Cambodia from what has survived in the remnants of their texts and temples. Temple inscriptions focus on invocations of the gods, eulogies of patrons and maintenance provision, not doctrine. But there is one illuminating exception which has not received the attention it deserves. From the time when Buddhism was allowed to revive in Brahmanical Cambodia in the mid-10th century, under Śaiva king Rājendravarman II, one temple engraving provides rare and revealing insights into the beliefs of the Cambodian Buddhists. The stone honours the Buddhist purohita or high priest Kīrtipaṇḍita (‘renowned teacher’) at the temple of Wàt Sithor in Kandal province in a way that clearly shows, the paper argues, that the new platform for reconstructing Khmer Buddhism was the Vajrayāna.1 Ancient Cambodia’s Buddhism is seen as Mahāyānist, and Francois Bizot is among a minority calling it a ‘Mahāyāna tantrisant’.2 This paper argues that the Wàt Sithor inscription supports neither the consensus nor the minority view but calls for a different interpretation. The inscription is seen as throwing a precious and unusually clear epigraphic light on the Buddhism re-introduced under Rājendravarman and it is suggested that the guiding spirit of Cambodian Buddhism from 950 A.D. to 1250 took the tantric form of the Vajrayāna. Vajrayāna, Buddhism’s third great vehicle, was making its second, successful entry to Tibet at the same time as Buddhism was being revived in Cambodia.

Built over centuries, the ruins of this holy city are the remnants of the Angkorian capitals and represent the pinnacle of this ancient civilization. Angkor was the capital of the Khmer Empire, which flourished from approximately the 9th to 15th centuries and has been recognised as one of the most important archaeological sites in Southeast Asia. Spread across a staggering 400 square kilometers, the Angkor Archaeological Park is home to the remains of the different capitals of the Khmer Empire. 2 3 CONTENT CULINARY

  • Destination: Angkor Archaeological Park the Complete Temple Guide
    Destination: Angkor Archaeological Park The Complete Temple Guide 1 The Temples of Angkor Ak Yom The earliest elements of this small brick and sandstone temple date from the pre-Angkorian 8th century. Scholars believe that the inscriptions indicate that the temple is dedicated to the Hindu 'god of the depths'. This is the earliest known example of the architectural design of the 'temple-mountain', which was to become the primary design for many of the Angkorian period temples including Angkor Wat. The temple is in a very poor condition. Angkor Thom Angkor Thom ("Great City") was the last and most enduring capital city of the Khmer empire. It was established in the late 12th century by King Jayavarman VII. The walled and moated royal city covers an area of 9 km², within which are located several monuments from earlier eras as well as those established by Jayavarman and his successors. At the centre of the city is Jayavarman's state temple, the Bayon, with the other major sites clustered around the Victory Square immediately to the north. Angkor Thom was established as the capital of Jayavarman VII's empire, and was the centre of his massive building programme. One inscription found in the city refers to Jayavarman as the groom and the city as his bride. Angkor Thom is accessible through 5 gates, one for each cardinal point, and the victory gate leading to the Royal Palace area. Angkor Wat Angkor Wat ("City of Temples"), the largest religious monument in the world, is a masterpiece of ancient architecture. The temple was built by the Khmer King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century as his state temple and eventual mausoleum.

  • A STUDY of the NAMES of MONUMENTS in ANGKOR (Cambodia)
    A STUDY OF THE NAMES OF MONUMENTS IN ANGKOR (Cambodia) NHIM Sotheavin Sophia Asia Center for Research and Human Development, Sophia University Introduction This article aims at clarifying the concept of Khmer culture by specifically explaining the meanings of the names of the monuments in Angkor, names that have existed within the Khmer cultural community.1 Many works on Angkor history have been researched in different fields, such as the evolution of arts and architecture, through a systematic analysis of monuments and archaeological excavation analysis, and the most crucial are based on Cambodian epigraphy. My work however is meant to shed light on Angkor cultural history by studying the names of the monuments, and I intend to do so by searching for the original names that are found in ancient and middle period inscriptions, as well as those appearing in the oral tradition. This study also seeks to undertake a thorough verification of the condition and shape of the monuments, as well as the mode of affixation of names for them by the local inhabitants. I also wish to focus on certain crucial errors, as well as the insufficiency of earlier studies on the subject. To begin with, the books written in foreign languages often have mistakes in the vocabulary involved in the etymology of Khmer temples. Some researchers are not very familiar with the Khmer language, and besides, they might not have visited the site very often, or possibly also they did not pay too much attention to the oral tradition related to these ruins, a tradition that might be known to the village elders.

  • CAMBODIA DISCOVERY 7 Days / 6 Nights
    CAMBODIA DISCOVERY 7 Days / 6 Nights DAY 1: Arrival in Phnom Penh Our guide will welcome you at the airport. Transfer to hotel to check in. In the afternoon, we’ll visit the splendid Royal Palace which was started by King Norodom (1834-1904) in 1886, when the capital was moved to Phnom Penh. French influence can be seen in the formal gardens which enhance the palace, and there are some European-style buildings on the grounds. Continue on to the Silver Pagoda, formerly a wooden building that was rebuilt in 1962 in concrete and marble. It is famous for its 90 kg solid gold Buddha made in 1907 and an emerald Buddha said to be made of baccarat crystal. The next stop will be the National Museum which houses the world's foremost collection of ancient Khmer archaeological, religious and artistic artefacts from the 4th to the 13th centuries. There are over 5000 pieces and is the repository of the Kingdom's cultural wealth. End the afternoon with a visit to the oldest shrine in the city, Wat Phnom. Overnight in Phnom Penh. DAY 2: Phnom Penh to Battambang Today, we drive to Battambang which is an elegant riverside town. Quiet and serene, it was founded on the banks of the Srung Sangker River in the 11th century. We visit the sacred mountain pagoda of Phnom Sampeau. We also visit Wat Banan, a hilltop temple dating from the Angkor period. Wat Banan is a smaller version of the illustrious Angkor Wat. We return to Battambang. Overnight in Battambang (B) DAY 3: Battambang to Siem Reap We take a speedboat along the Sangker River and into the Tonle Sap Lake which is the largest fresh water lake in Southeast Asia.

  • THE ARCHITECTURAL PROJECT the Initiator of a Building Indicated
    CHAPTER THREE THE ARCHITECTURAL PROJECT The initiator of a building indicated to the master craftsman the general parameters of the proposed construction, and the project represented the sum of the constraints imposed. Excepting the eco­ nomic and technical constraints, which could not be varied, the architectural particulars could be altered. Each structure is the ex­ pression of a different project; even if sometimes two constructions seem follow the same building programme, they varied in their composition because of an evolution in techniques, the choice of materials, and above all the economic means placed at the disposal of each master craftsman. But as time went by the master craftsman liberated himself from architectural models, whilst still retaining in his memory an impor­ tant fund of monumental knowledge. Given this, we have selected six complexes to reconstitute, in so far as it is possible, the original project: a palace, and five temples, Phnom Bakheng, Ta Keo, the Western Mebon, Thomanon and the Bayon. While the structural programme of the palace is easy to unravel, those of the temples are extremely complex, especially in their sym­ bolism. Each is, above all, the dwelling of the god, and as B. Dagens showed, is also the body of the divinity1• This in architecture is al­ ready difficult to express, but each temple also comprises an icon­ ographic programme which imposes its far from negligible shape and dimensions to a building. The temple thus comes to express the relationship among the gods in a genuine theogony. In 1952, dur­ ing the excavations of the temple of Bat Chum, flagstones showing a yantra were discovered2 in the foundations of the north tower and in the interior of the central tower, in front of the base of its en­ trance stairway.

  • Airsar's Contribution to Understanding the Angkor
    AIRSAR’S CONTRIBUTION TO UNDERSTANDING THE ANGKOR WORLD HERITAGE SITE, CAMBODIA – OBJECTIVES AND PRELIMINARY FINDINGS FROM AN EXAMINATION OF PACRIM2 DATASETS Roland Fletcher1, Damian Evans1 and Ian J. Tapley2 1 Department of Archaeology, University of Sydney, New South Wales Email: [email protected] and [email protected] 2 Cooperative Research Center for Landscape Environments and Mineral Exploration, CSIRO Exploration and Mining, Perth, Western Australia. Email: [email protected] In September 2000 AIRSAR-TOPSAR data were acquired over the environment and cultural landscape of the World Heritage site of Angkor in Cambodia as part of a collaborative research project between APSARA (Royal Cambodian Government Agency responsible for Angkor), EFEO (Ecole Francaise d’Eextreme Orient) and the University of Sydney. Termed the Greater Angkor Project, additional support from the World Monuments Fund and the Mekong River Commission funded the acquisition of 3000 sq km of data as part of a total of 7000 sq km coverage of the western end of Lake Tonle Sap. These data provide the first comprehensive, consistent and detailed record of the whole of Angkor and its surrounding region. An enhancement in Figure 1 shows the Figure 1: AIRSAR bands Cvv/Lvv/Pvv displayed as RGB, respectively, draped over TOPSAR DEM with a 7x height exaggeration – a northeasterly perspective view across the town of Siem Reap, in the foreground, to the ricefields south of Angkor Wat (left center) and former reservoir of the East Barray, to the outcropping rhyolite hill of Phnom Bok and beyond to alignments of sinkhole ponds developed over a karst? plain in remnant alignments of a former drainage network comprising the Roulus and Siem Reap rivers.
