  • Mountain, Water, Rock
    Introduction In the Direction of Kedar When one had almost reached the Hindu shrine of Kedarnath, there used to be a point along the footpath following the Mandakini River where, in good weather, the top of the temple came into view against the backdrop of a bright, wide Himalayan panorama. In the related languages of Hindi and Garhwali, such vantage points bear the title of “Sight-of-God” (Hindi: devdarshini, deodekhni). Devdarshini is the point from which you are first able to glimpse the deity of a particular place, in this case Shiva in his Kedarnath form. Before June of 2013, devdarshini was located above the western bank of the Mandakini River, about two kilometers from the temple and twelve kilometers from the beginning of the footpath in the village of Gaurikund. The temple of Kedarnath lies on the valley floor at almost 3,600 meters above sea level, enfolded on three sides by mountains. Almost all travelers to Kedarnath, from perennial residents to first-time visitors to non-Indian regular visitors such as myself, used to stop at devdarshini to catch their breath, encounter the view, and take stock of the place where they were about to arrive. Devdarshini often evokes a strong response. I once spoke with a woman from the Indian state of Maharashtra who had come to Kedarnath seven times.1 She said that when she arrived at devdarshini she experienced what in Hindi is called sakshat darshan—a visual encounter with (or more technically a visual knowing of) the divine in its most true form.

  • Uprising of the Fools Pilgrimage As Moral Protest in Contemporary India 1St Edition Pdf, Epub, Ebook
    UPRISING OF THE FOOLS PILGRIMAGE AS MORAL PROTEST IN CONTEMPORARY INDIA 1ST EDITION PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Vikash Singh | 9781503601673 | | | | | Uprising of the Fools Pilgrimage as Moral Protest in Contemporary India 1st edition PDF Book Love: All That Matters. The ruins are the ruins of ancient fire temples. Other sites are the ruins of fire temples at Rey , south of the capital Tehran , and the Firouzabad ruins sixty kilometres south of Shiraz in the province of Pars. Central News Agency published 19 April Despite not being particularly religious himself, Vohra says he forged his own connections with the irrepressible Kanwariyas, many of them working-class and lower- caste young men revelling in a rare opportunity to be free of their troubles and participate in an event bigger than themselves. It can lead to a personal transformation, after which the pilgrim returns to their daily life. Smaller pilgrimages are also undertaken to places like Allahabad and Varanasi. They have become a pilgrimage destination. As a common human experience, pilgrimage has been proposed as a Jungian archetype by Wallace Clift and Jean Dalby Clift. Most Hindus visit sites within their region or locale. The Ihram white robe of pilgrimage is meant to show equality of all Muslim pilgrims in the eyes of Allah. ISBN: There were no television reports about ecstatic Kanwariyas trudging tirelessly for hundreds of kilometres, no stories of how they were contributing to traffic jams, no debates about whether the surging popularity of the annual trek is a nuisance or a sign of a socio-political churning. Uprising of the Fools is a rich ethnography of the Kanwar pilgrimage and offers a timely critical engagement with epistemologies surrounding religion.
