What is Temple Architecture?
ZIDA Bhubaneswar:: The Best Fashion Design & Interior Design Training Institute on Bhubaneswar
Temples should be constructed in accordance
with Vedic principles and Vaastu Shaastra. The main idol of the deity should be
positioned where the Earth's magnetic lines are concentrated, as this is the
most acceptable limitation. After then, the temple is built around this spot.
As a result, the ‘Garbhagirha' (main shrine) is a high-power zone that emits
positive energy in the form of invisible energy.
The planning of the temple complex around
this central spot is a complex procedure. Taking the 8*8 grid of Vaastu Purusha Mandal known as the Manduka Mandala is widely accepted in
zoning of the temple. The symmetrical geometry is developed from myths,
beliefs, cardinality and mathematical principles. The centre most padas (squares of the grid) denotes the Brahma-sthaan (The spot of Brahma). The temple complex houses the Brahma pada as well as the
concentrically radiating outward squares denoting Devika padas (of God), Manusha
padas (of humans) and Paisachika
padas (of demons) respectively. The Shikhara
(or Vimana) stands right above the Garbhagriha, housing the symmetric upward
tiers of the spire with precisely measured geometry. The sky bound direction of
the Shikhara creates a focal point
and gives the idea of uprising spiritually.
“There is a powerful need for symbolism, and that
means the architecture must have something that appeals to the human heart.” said Kenzo Tange. Inscriptions,
sculptures, and carvings on the inside and outside of the building communicate
stories and lessons from ancient times, stimulating the child within each of
us. We quickly connect to the place once we begin to embrace it as a whole.
This link produces the energy that engrosses and energises one in the spirit of
the building around them.
Furthermore, the practise of giving
prayers, executing rituals, and eating prasaad engages all five senses of the
human body. This unlocks all of the body's internal gates, allowing the
energies to flow freely through the senses of smell, hearing, sight, touch, and
taste. Mantras and bhajans, which are packed with positivity, increase the
sensation of concentration, which is necessary for observing the energy in the
body.
It's not just about religion and
spirituality when you visit a temple, church, or mosque. It's also a way of
life; a branch of science that the younger generation frequently
misunderstands. Temples are more than just structures; they are energy centres
and stress relievers. Positive thinking is an important component of life, and
the design of temples provides us with enough of it. Next time you visit a
temple, have a look around, sit for a bit, and try to absorb as much energy as
possible and retain it!
