  • This talk surveys the diverse traditions of Indian temple architecture and discusses patterns that can be seen in the ways they develop. A pattern of emanation, one form coming out of another, can often observed both in the formal structure of individual temple designs, which express a sequence of emergence and growth, and in the way in which temple forms develop. The talk (sequel to • Typology of Indian Tem... Typology of Indian Temples and illustrated by • Emanating Temple Forms ) was originally intended for a module, which never saw the light of day, on the Government of India’s Epathshala platform.

    So called Mughal architecture is also Indian architecture cause when Mughals came from Afganistan there was no architects. Whatever was built was built by Indian architects which made changes in their design

    im very interested in our indian architecture and its evolution, not just the structure but the designs, carvings and statues, and i think some of the best complex and highly detailed ones are from karnataka, mp and odissa , i have a question to ask u maybe u can make a video about it, how can indian high art architecture like in our ancient and medieval temples still keep evolving like as if there is no influence from the global world and keep evolving and making unique art on the foundation of thousand of years of work.. is there a way and why its not happening in modern times

    Great video! Just to throw in the mix When you think about plants outside they get their size or energy from sound and ether through the golden ratio of the leafs.
    If you think about a lot of the detail on the outside of the temple it could be amplifying the energy even more.

    At 29:25 the cobalt ceilings look so much like some traditional mehendi designs. Is it possible that traditional mehendi designs were made to spread a basic architecture idea among masses

      I wish I knew the answer - I think I've heard what he is, but I've forgotten. Let's try to find out, and maybe someone else might tell us.

      The figure hanging on the top over bandhana of shikhar near Amalasara's neck is mostly Yogini in Nagara.

    Excellent presentation and research! I am curious about the Tiruvannamalai/Arunachaleswara temple which is tall & has 11 levels. Is the interior of the gopura hollow or what is inside each level? Also, it would appear that each Tala has progressively increasing height. Is there a generic mathematical/geometric progression formula for this type of Tala architecture for height across levels? Or is this and similar temples like Sri Ranganathaswamy or Meenakshi temples having a different formula? I couldn't find specific details from a quick glance at your publications. Do you have a reference or know more details on this towering temple? Thanks for making these fantastic education videos on lost knowledge and engineering practices of ancient India.

    Dear Prof. Hardy, It's nice to learn from you in video with animated graphics and performance. During these days of quarantine and increasing hopelessness, these videos are very soothing. I hope you are doing fine. Please, stay safe. I hope to learn from more videos in the coming days. I am wondering about the ways Bengal temples departed from other types and styles during the early medieval period. You are aware of a few of them through our earlier correspondences. With warm regards, Swadhin Sen, Department of Archaeology, Jahangirnagar University, Bangladesh.
