    SACRED SPACES and OBJECTS: the VISUAL, MATERIAL, and TANGIBLE George Pati

    SACRED SPACES AND OBJECTS: THE VISUAL, MATERIAL, AND TANGIBLE George Pati BRAUER MUSEUM OF ART | APRIL 13 — MAY 8, 2016 WE AT THE BRAUER MUSEUM are grateful for the opportunity to present this exhibition curated by George Pati, Ph.D., Surjit S. Patheja Chair in World Religions and Ethics and Valparaiso University associate professor of theology and international studies. Through this exhibition, Professor Pati shares the fruits of his research conducted during his recent sabbatical and in addition provides valuable insights into sacred objects, sites, and practices in India. Professor Pati’s photographs document specific places but also reflect a creative eye at work; as an artist, his documents are also celebrations of the particular spaces that inspire him and capture his imagination. Accompanying the images in the exhibition are beautiful textiles and objects of metalware that transform the gallery into its own sacred space, with respectful and reverent viewing becoming its own ritual that could lead to a fuller understanding of the concepts Pati brings to our attention. Professor Pati and the Brauer staff wish to thank the Surjit S. Patheja Chair in World Religions and Ethics and the Partners for the Brauer Museum of Art for support of this exhibition. In addition, we wish to thank Gretchen Buggeln and David Morgan for the insights and perspectives they provide in their responses to Pati's essay and photographs.

RAJAN1,2, UMAMAHESWARI KRISHNAN1,2, AND S. SETHURAMAN1,2* 1Centre for Nanotechnology and Advanced Biomaterials, 2School of Chemical and Biotechnology, 3Centre for Advanced Research in Indian System of Medicine, Sastra University, Thanjavur‑613 401, India Nagarajan, et al.: Science of Preparation of Naga Bhasma Naga bhasma is one of the herbo-metallic preparations used in Ayurveda, a traditional Indian System of Medicine. The preparation of Naga bhasma involves thermal treatment of ‘Naga’ (metallic lead) in a series of quenching liquids, followed by reaction with realgar and herbal constituents, before calcination to prepare a fine product. We have analysed the intermediates obtained during different stages of preparation to understand the relevance and importance of different steps involved in the preparation. Our results show that ‘Sodhana’ (purification process) removes heavy metals other than lead, apart from making it soft and amenable for trituration. The use of powders of tamarind bark and peepal bark maintains the oxidation state of lead in Jarita Naga (lead oxide) as Pb2+. The repeated calcination steps result in the formation of nano-crystalline lead sulphide, the main chemical species present in Naga bhasma. Key words: Sodhana (purification),naga bhasma, lead, lead oxide, lead sulphide, calcination Ayurveda, an ancient system of medicine, has been at 6 mg/kg body weight was found to be nontoxic practiced in India since time immemorial. Plants, in animal model[7]. Naga bhasma has specific minerals, molecules from animal sources are used regenerative potential on germinal epithelium of [8] for the preparation of Ayurvedic drugs.

Pachaiyappan, D. Ushalaya Raj Institute of Advanced Study in Education, Saidapet, Chennai – 600 015, Tamil Nadu, India *Corresponding author P. Pachaiyappan Email: Abstract: Trees provide innumerable ecosystem services in human-dominated urban environment. Forest disturbances as well as biomass enrichments are tightly linked with atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration. All trees ≥5 cm diameter at breast height (dbh) were inventoried from a one hectare area of the Cooum river bank (CRB), Chennai Metropolitan city (CMC), India. Both above and below ground biomass were estimated by widely accepted regression equations with DBH and wood density as inputs. A total of 710 trees belonged to 22 families, 41 genera and 47 species were recorded. Trees accumulated 86.02 Mg dry biomass and 43.01 Mg C in a hectare. Members of Mimosaceae dominated the CRB with 231 individuals. Tamarindus indica contributed more (11.744 Mg; 13.7%) to biomass. As to the families Ceasalpiniaceae, Mimosaceae and Papilionaceae altogether contributed 55.61 Mg (64.64%) to total biomass. Tree diameter class 31-45 cm contributed more (35.15 Mg; 40.86%) to total biomass. On average each tree achieved 0.47 ± 0.1 cm dbh growth yr-1. In a year one hectare urban forest sequestered 3999.91 kg biomass and 1999.95 kg C.
