The concept of Spiritual Architecture consists of spaces with a focus on the five senses and an overall sense of being. People have been drawn to the idea of entering a spiritual dimension of existence for thousands of years. Because of this, humanity have always constructed buildings that served a higher purpose in addition to the first buildings they utilised as shelter. However, spiritual architecture has a distinct style all its own in addition to its intended use. When one is asked to envision a religious building, images of towering cathedrals, elaborate mosques, temples filled with pews, or other traditional qualities may come to mind. Whether on purpose or not, spiritual architecture acts as a tangile, visual cue for the imperceptible. #architecture?#architect?#travelling?#travel?#photography?#travelphotography?#india?#europe?#dubai?#archilovers?#architecturephotography https://lnkd.in/ewBrzcT5

Modhera Sun Temple: An architectural marvel that dates back to the zenith of Indian architecture. The temple was constructed in 1026CE in such a way that during every equinox, the first sunrays would fall on a diamond placed on the Sun God’s head. The temple was dedicated to the solar deity?Surya. The Sabha Mandap stands on 52 pillars that were designed to depict the 52 weeks of the year.? Carvings of the sun, along with its unity of four other elements—air, water, earth, and space—can be spotted along the walls of the temple.? The temple complex has three components: Gū?haman?apa, the shrine hall; Sabhaman?apa, the assembly hall and Kun?a, the reservoir. The halls have intricately carved exterior and pillars. The reservoir has steps to reach the bottom and numerous small shrines. ( Sources of above text: Atlas Obscura and Wikipedia) Music: Put the Sun Back by PARISIAN & AVG https://lnkd.in/gBPJwT38

#southindiabycaranddriver #kyntiewlangtours #keralatouristspots #ancienttemples The strong walls of ancient temples were marvels of engineering, designed to endure time and weather. Crafted from massive stone blocks, these walls were often carefully interlocked without mortar, using techniques like dovetailing and stacking to enhance stability. The stones were typically carved to fit precisely, with each layer of rock reinforcing the one below. This meticulous construction protected the sanctity of the temple interior, with walls sometimes adorned with intricate carvings depicting deities, mythological scenes, and symbols. The thickness and durability of these walls symbolized the temple’s strength and the permanence of divine presence. @ancienttemples @followers @travelers @southindia @southindiandestinations

"Symbolic Threads: Unravelling the Salt Lake Masonic Temple and Sphinx Metaphors" The Salt Lake Masonic Temple, an exemplar of Egyptian Revival architecture, serves as the Masonic hub for Utah. Completed in 1927, it stands in Salt Lake City's South Temple Historic District. Choosing the Egyptian motif was twofold: it aligned with contemporary fashion, and, distinct from classical styles, offered a unique Masonic experience, seamlessly incorporating symbolic elements without overt disclosure. The exterior features "Temple Brick," crafted specifically for the Salt Lake Masonic Temple. Light, a pivotal Masonic symbol, permeates the design, referencing the Egyptian god Horus, symbolizing light. The three entrances represent the three Lights of a Masonic Lodge, with the northern entrance signifying a journey from darkness to light. The funerary ramp west of the entrance, crowned by a scarab symbolizing resurrection, and seven acacia trees, signifies Masonic beliefs in a Supreme Being and the soul's immortality. The main entrance staircase, flanked by sphinxes holding celestial and terrestrial spheres, adds to the symbolic richness. Sphinxes contemplating their spheres contribute to the profound symbolism embedded in the Temple's design. Salt Lake City's unique grid system emanates from Temple Square, with addresses denoting distance east or west and north or south from this central point. In Egyptian symbolism, the Sphinx represents royalty and sacred status, a reflection of their solar deity, Horus. Sigmund Freud likened the Sphinx's riddle to the question of childbirth's origins. Considering the metaphorical symbolism, the Sphinx, with its connection to light, resurrection, and immortality, intertwines with Salt Lake City's architectural choices, weaving a rich tapestry of cultural, symbolic, and historical interplay. Drawing a parallel, salt, an essential element, signifies preservation, purity, and life. Its presence in the region adds another layer to the intricate narrative, symbolizing endurance, essentiality, and the everlasting. #MasonicTemple #EgyptianRevival #SymbolismInArchitecture #SaltLakeCityHistory #SphinxMetaphor #MasonicSymbolism #ArchitecturalSignificance #LightSymbolism #SaltSymbolism
