Ellora Cave 16 – Kailasanatha Temple.
Kailasha Temple, Ellora
It is believed that the construction of the Kailash Temple was started in the mid 8th century under the direction of King Krishna I (757-775) of the Rashtrakuta dynasty.

Kailash Temple is situated near the village of Ellora, 30 km from Aurangabad.
The temple is considered as one of the most astonishing buildings in the history of architecture. This is one of the largest 34 excavations at Ellora, which took almost a century. Kailash Temple is dedicated to Lord Shiva.
The idol measures 109 feet wide by 164 feet long.
**********************
It is estimated that it took about 100 years to complete the work.
Kailash is the biggest monolith in the world, made of one piece of rock.
********************************
Ellora represents the epitome of Indian rock-cut architecture.
The 34 "caves" – actually structures excavated out of the vertical face of the Charanandri hills. Buddhist, Hindu and Jain rock-cut temples and viharas and mathas were built between the 5th century and 10th century. The 12 Buddhist (caves 1–12), 17 Hindu (caves 13–29) and 5 Jain (caves 30–34) caves, built in proximity, demonstrate the religious harmony prevalent during this period of Indian history.

Kailash Temple, ramane inca o uriasa enigma!
Nu impartasesc punctele de vedere oficiale, dar nu cred ca aceasta este important.
Oamenii deseori, din motive greu de cunoscut, refuza a cauta, cunoaste adevarul!
Prefera surogatele, minciuna. Sa fie asta calea? Poate da, poate nu!

Kailash Temple Maharashtra.History.

The depiction of the demon Ravana shaking Mount Kailash is a masterpiece contain the scenes of semi-mythological history, the royal court and popular life of the ancient times, as told in romances and plays. Some pictures recall the Greek and Roman compositions and proportions, few late resemble to Chinese manners to some extent. But majority belongs to a phase which is purely Indian as they are found no where else.
These monuments were constructed during two different periods of time separated by a long interval of four centuries. The older ones were the product of last to centuries before Christ and belongs to Hinayana period of Buddhism in later part of 2nd century AD when Buddhism was divided into two sections, after the conduct of the fourth general council under another great king, Kanishka.
The new feature of Mahayana Buddhism was the concept of future Buddha's. The Buddha, himself probably thought that he was the last of the long succession of earlier Buddha's who lived before him. According to the Buddhist traditions, these former Buddhas were revered even in the historical Buddha's lifetime.
By the time king Ashoka, their cult was widespread and was patronized by Ashoka. Later, when the stupas were constructed and beautified, the carvings were executed in a symbolic way. An inspired sculptor began to carve images of Buddha himself and within the few generations, all the Buddhist sects took to worshipping images.
The universe of Mahayana contains numerous Bodhisattava, the chief of whom is Avalokitesvara with attributes of compassion. He is also called Padmapani or the lotus bearer. The Manjushri with a naked sword in one hand, stimulates the understanding. The sterner Bodhisattava who is a foe of the sin and evil and bearing a thunderbolt in the hand is Vajrapani. The future Buddha, Maitreya will take birth to save the world.

It is believed that work on the Kailasha temple was begun in the mid-8th century and under the direction of King Krishna I (757-775) of the Rashtrakutadynasty, the rulers of the western Deccan area. One of the India's greatest architectural treasures, was hewn out of the solid rock of the hillside to form a free-standing temple consisting of a gateway, two-storied halls and the main shrine within.
The most majestic creation is the Kailash Temple, a full-sized freestanding temple flanked by huge elephants all carved from solid rock, pillars and pondiums, as the workers dug away some 200,000 tons of rock.
The result is an awe-inspiring representation of Shiva's Himalayan abode. Nearby caves are alive with stone murals depicting divine struggles and victories. With these caves before us, it is clear that India far surpasses the rest of the world in the glory of its rock-cut architecture.

Inca un set de enigme:

Dantelaria sculpturilor de pe peretii interiori, in cel mai profund, desavarsit si "negru" ... INTUNERIC, fara "pereti afumati" si "scule electrice cu varf de diamant", cum a fost posibila? Cine a realizat si cum picturile, sculpturile uriase care intrunesc in totalitate regulile artei moderne? Cum? Cine?
Bietii oameni/calugari ai anilor 700-800 e.n.?
Salut, Vasile! Fabuloase imagini, fabuloase realizări! Nu-ti vine să crezi că mâna omului, cu tehnica specifica secolului 8, după Christos a putut realiza asemenea capodopere.
RăspundețiȘtergereVictore, te salut!
ȘtergereAi dreptate, realizari fabuloase!
Nici eu nu cred ca sunt realizate de "mâna omului, cu tehnica specifica secolului 8, după Christos"! Dar ce cred eu, nu se "coase la dosar"! Sunt un biet anonim, un calator pe net!
Complexitatea si frumusetea acestor opere de arta - temple sau indiferent ce nume inca mai poarta - depaseste posibilitatile mele de intelegere! Cred cu tarie ca "oamenii" acelor timpuri, nu au avut nimic comun cu "constructiile" acestea! Poate o data si o data, vom afla despre ce si cum a fost in acele vremuri de glorie ... non-umana!

Ellora Caves:
RăspundețiȘtergere============
Ellora Caves (Maharashtra) belong to the highest achievements of mankind both regarding the engineering skills and arts. Words can not describe the incredible richness of artistic and phylosophical messages emanated by thousands of sculptures, drawings and inscriptions in Ellora.
This group of 34 monasteries and temples belongs to the last great cave temples of India. Temples were built for three religions - 12 Buddhist temples and monasteries (630 - 700 AD), 17 Hinduist shrines (550 - 780 AD) and 5 Jain temples (800 - 1000 AD).
Most amazing creation here is Kailasanatha (Kailash Temple). This is large (84.1 m long and 29,3 m high - two times larger than Parthenon in Athens), free standing structure with extremely complex structural planning. It was carved 100 years and in this time with extreme precision were removed 200,000 tonnes of rock. Temple was shaped to resemble the sacred Mount Kailash and originally was plastered and painted in bright colors.
Some more cave temples here represent amazing achievement of structural engineering and contain important art values of global importance - Cave 10 ("Carpenters Cave"), Cave 11 (Do Tal) with three stories, Cave 15 (Dasavatar), Cave 21 (Rameshvara), the amazing Cave 30 (Chhota Kailash - a smaller version of Kailasanatha) and the extremely ornate Cave 32 (Indra Sabha). - thanks,admin Romania megalitica! -
Wowwww...
ȘtergereThe caves aren't natural caves, but man-made temples cut into a massive granite hillside. They were built by generations of Buddhist, Hindu, and Jain monks, who lived, worked, and worshipped in the caves, slowly carving out elaborate statues, pillars, and meditation rooms.
