Summary
[edit]Description15th century Hazara Rama temple premises, Hampi Hindu monuments Karnataka.jpg |
English: The Hazara Rama (thousand Rama) Temple is a major temple in Hampi group of monuments found in the royal center of Vijayanagara city. It served as the royal chapel for the Hindu kings, houses a raised yajna mandapa (Vedic fire ritual madala) with designed in feature to vent flames and smoke and has intricate carvings on walls and pillars.
The panels at the Hazara Rama Hindu temple show the Ramayana legends, but images of other Vaishnava gods (avatars) and goddesses are also common. Shiva and Shakti Devi (goddess) panels are reverentially included. Some statues such as those of Vishnu in the temple interior were intentionally damaged (nose or face defaced, hands broken) after Vijayanagara Empire fell. Outside the temple, its walls show long panels of festive processions, mainly Ramanavami (Mahanavami, Dasara, Dussehra), Vaisakhi (Vasantotsav, Vasantotsavam) and Holi spring festival scenes. The processions show elephants and horses marching with war equipped soldiers, a long row of dancers in different Natya mudra, another long row of musicians with various musical instruments in different postures, a row of people from different economic activities showing their trade equipment and tools (artha). The scenes include children as well as Hindu deities. Hampi ruins and monuments date to pre-17th century period of South Indian history, particularly those related to the Hindu Vijayanagara Empire era (14th-16th centuries). The site consists of numerous ruins and temples over a large area, the most visited and studied are those located near the Tungabhadra river. The town derives its name from the Pampa Devi Hindu mythology in Sanskrit, with Pampa morphing into Hampa in Kannada, then Hampi. The city served as capital of the Vijayanagara rulers, was pillaged, ruined and abandoned after Muslim armies of a Sultanate coalition attacked and defeated it. In the modern era, it serves as an archaeological site and is a UNESCO world heritage site. |
