It is the Indian national committee of the International Council on Monuments and Sites (ICOMOS); a non-governmental international organization dedicated to the conservation of world’s monuments and sites. ICOMOS-India provides a forum where individuals and representatives of institutions drawn from multiple disciplines such as archaeology, architecture, planning, anthropology, sociology, art history and others concerned with conservation, protection, rehabilitation and enhancement of cultural heritage sites and places in India, exchange information and views on principles and practices in the field. The membership is drawn from across India, organised into six geographical zones to ensure adequate regional representation. The scientific work is undertaken through several National Scientific Committees such as Historic Towns and Villages, Cultural Routes, Risk Preparedness, Forts, 20th Century Heritage, Vernacular Heritage, Intangible heritage etc. Through various initiatives, ICOMOS India further helps its members connect with a worldwide network of heritage professionals to encourage interdisciplinary dialogue and build capacities. ICOMOS India is proud to organize the 19th triennial General Assembly in Delhi, India from 11th – 15th December, 2017. The theme of Scientific Symposium is “Heritage & Democracy”. Organised in the largest democracy of the world, the central idea of this Symposium is inspired by the recent, marked shift in global discourse in heritage towards a genuine people-centric policy and practice. How do we facilitate the multiplicity of perceptions that challenge, reject, renegotiate or simply ignore the dominant discourse on heritage? How can we identify, acknowledge and collaborate with caretakers, owners, stakeholders and custodians of heritage from within our diversity? And then, how do we negotiate particular 11 challenges to collectively safeguard our past? These would be some of the questions addressed through the four subthemes: Integrating Heritage and Sustainable Urban Development by engaging diverse communities; Role of Cultural Heritage in building Peace and Reconciliation; Protecting and interpreting Cultural Heritage in the age of digital empowerment; and Culture – Nature Journey. In this regard, the symposium explores the possibilities for cultural heritage in a world of multiple stakeholders, recognising cultural diversity and addressing challenges of equity based decision making amidst local and/or global communities. On the event of this 19th General Assembly, and in context of this Scientific Symposium, ICOMOS India is proud to present this Monograph on HRIDAY cities which is a collaborative effort of CEPT University, also an institutional member of ICOMOS, India, and ICOMOS National Scientific Committee for Historic Towns and Villages and National Scientific Committee for Cultural Routes. The Monograph comprises contributions from ICOMOS members, CEPT university students, academia, conservation professionals and organisations involved in the urban conservation projects of the HRIDAY Scheme of Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, Government of India. In this regards, it is a unique document that brings together on ground practices and reflections upon them. I thank all experts, members, students, academics, professionals and organisations who have participated and supported this endeavour. I sincerely thank the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs, Government of India for their support and look forward towards a continued engagement to strengthen the collaboration. 12 Note from CEPT University Bimal Patel President CEPT University I am pleased to present the Reflections on the HRIDAY (Heritage City Development and Augmentation Yojana) Program curated by ICOMOS India and CEPT University. I sincerely thank the Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs (MoHUA) for their continuous support and leadership. The timing of this publication could not be more appropriate as it will be inaugurated during the first-ever ICOMOS general assembly in India. CEPT University focuses on understanding, designing, planning, constructing and managing human habitats. Its teaching programs aim to build thoughtful professionals and its research programs deepen understanding of human settlements. CEPT University also undertakes advisory projects to further the goal of making habitats more liveable. Through its education, research and advisory activities, CEPT strives to improve the impact of habitat professions in enriching the lives of people in India’s villages, towns and cities. CEPT University has always valued collaborative practice and critical professional engagements. This monograph puts together reflections by experts, professional work by the practitioners along with the CEPT students’ work. This is the apt collaboration that we would like to promote at the University – students, professionals, academicians and the government working towards improving India’s historic cities. I am also glad to see that this monograph draws upon a multi-disciplinary approach where conservation architects, urban planners and social scientists have come together to reflect upon the past and the future of our historic cities. The issues of infrastructure and architectural conservation pertaining to our historic cities are complex and it is time that singular or unilineal approaches give way to a more comprehensive and plural approach

    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

  • CHAPTER XV EDUCATION and CULTURE Historical Background
    CHAPTER XV EDUCATION AND CULTURE Historical Background Kurukshetra remained a great seat of learning during ancient period. A major part of Vedic literature, including the Brahmanas, the Aranvakas, the Upinshadas and the Canoncial Sutras , was composed on the banks of the sacred river Saraswati where Rishis lived with large number of their disciples. A detailed scrutiny of the Mahabharata leaves us in no doubt that a major portion of the great epic was also composed here. Lord Krishna recited Gita in the battlefield of Kurukshetra and Manu wrote his great smriti (Manusmriti) sitting on the banks of the Saraswati at Prithudaka (modern Pehowa). The Ashramas of ancient Rishis were the most important centres for study of subjects which formed bed rock of ancient Indian culture, namely, religion, philosophy and ethics. According to Vaman Purana , the hermitages of Vishvamitra and Vasistha, the vedic sages, were located in Kurukshetra region. These hermitages used to be the seat of learning where pupils from different parts of the country gathered together for instructions in divine knowledge.1 Mahabharta also tells about numerous hermitages where pupils from distant and different parts of the country gathered for instructions around far- famed teachers. 2 The object of ancient Gurukul system of education was three- fold; the acquisition of knowledge, the inculcation of social duties and religious rites and above all, the formation of character. The teacher was the central figure, the very pivot of the educational system. He was the sole incharge of his moral, mental and physical upbringing. The teacher was the most revered person, who was considered by the pupils to be above their parents.
