Tiruvannamalai gets connected to Halebid!!!

Buds.. hope you had a nice time for Karthigai Deepam..

I missed it this year too.. :( ... was not at home to celebrate it with my family...

Happened to read this article in The Hindu.. where this journalist had established the historical links between Tiruvannamalai temple down in Tamilnadu and the Halebid temple in Karnataka.

Since I had been to both these places.. felt utmost interested and the importance of this article.. hope you too will love to know the history behind these monumental marvels..

This would also add to my Architecture marvel series at a later point of time I believe.. :D

Ok.. presenting the article as is from the daily.. for you all to now get the link between Tiruvannamalai and Halebid temples...

What is the link between Tiruvannamalai and Halebid?

"The legendary lighting of the Mahadeepam in Tiruvannamalai is a spectacular event, with all the houses in the holy town aglow with agalvilakkus. At the entrance of the ancient Shiva temple, on the Eastern side, stands a massive tower — Vallala Maharaja Gopuram, with a sculpture of the king. I wondered if it was named after the Hoyasala king, Veera Ballala III.

Suddenly, my mind traversed across the State to Halebid and Belur in Karnataka that were ruled by him. I wanted to establish the link between Halebid and Tiruvannamalai.

And so, I set off on a sunny day in November. It was a long drive past a barren and rocky terrain from Hassan to the historical town of Halebid (the old abode), once ruled by King Vishnuvardhana.

The Halebid temple



                                                                
History has it that when all earlier rulers were against the Pandyas, a humane Ballala wanted to help King Sundara Pandiyan in Madurai fight against his step-brother, Veera Pandian. When Ballala took his army to the South, Sultan Alauddin Khilji, with his commander Malik Kafur, ravaged the city of Halebid or Dwarasamudra. For long, the Sultan had been wanting to suppress the king, and waited for an opportunity to crush him. Also, for nearly two decades, the Sultan had been planning to capture Ballala. Proof of his intentions can be seen in the many mutilated sculptures in Halebid.

Since Halebid had been a frequent target, Ballala established his kingdom in Tiruvannamalai.

Sri Arunachaleshwara Temple, Tiruvannamalai



                                 
A King's repentance

It is said that after constructing the rajagopuram of the Arunachaleswara temple, Ballala became proud. However, an incident made him realise his folly. During a temple festival, the Lord, seated in a palanquin, refused to move through the entrance. It was only after Ballala repented that the Lord consented to pass through this gopuram.

In 1343 A.D., the Sultan's forces unexpectedly attacked and took the king captive. Ballala was killed brutally in the battle of Madurai. But, his immense heroism paved the way for the Vijayanagara dynasty under Harihara Raya.

Records show that Tiruvannamalai used to be called Arunachalapuram, and King Ballala had a palace at Pallikondapattu. Legend has it that Ballala, who was praised for his uprightness, generosity, humaneness and love for the Lord, prayed to him for an heir. The Lord is said to have taken the form of the royal couple's child, but soon disappeared.

However, since the King had embraced the child with love, Lord Shiva assured him that he would perform his funeral rites. Even today, on the death anniversary of the king, the Lord comes calling on his appa at Pallikondapattu village. This festival is known as Maasi Magam Theerthavari Urchavam.

My mind's eye took in the sculptures on the Vallala tower and compared them to those seen at the Hoyasaleshwara temple in Halebid, the Chennakesava temple in Belur and the Chamundi temple. Though the architecture shared a resemblance, at times, the Chola style of sculpture was also seen, implying a migration of Tamil sculptors to Belur and Halebid."

The link finally in place? :)

Mukesh Ambani's Homely Hassles!!!

This blog post is a peekaboo on Mukesh Ambani's new house - a 27 storeyed building in Mumbai.

For those who dunno wat i m talkin about -- herez a gist about it:

This new building named Antilia (tatz a pretty name for a house.. I like tat).... is going to be the home sweet home for Mukesh Ambani and family in Mumbai. It is a 27 storeyed building of glass and steel soaring into the skyline.

Of what I read in news columns - the house has 6 parking levels and 3 helipads on the roof.

Nine elevators help people traverse along the building which also houses - airborne swimming pools, hanging gardens, a spa, a 50-seat theatre and a grand ballroom (Wonder how many staff he would need to jus maintain them daily ?? !! )

They are expected to move into the house by end of November.

Ok.. now coming to the hassles point of view...

Jus a day of Mukesh's life in Antilia.. here goes the story...

Mukesh gets up from his bed room on 15th floor, takes a swim in the swimming pool on 17th floor.

Has breakfast on the 19th floor, dresses up for office on 14th floor, collects his files and office bag from his personal office on 21st floor.

Wishes bye to Nita (his wife) on 16th floor, says 'See You' to his children on 13th floor.

And goes down on 3rd floor to self drive his 2.5 Crore Mercedes to office, but then he finds out that he has forgotten the car keys upstairs.

But on which floor? 15th, 17th,19th,14th,21st,16th or 13th ?

He phones all his servants, cooks, maids, secretaries, pool attendants, gym trainers, etc. on all the floors. There is a hectic search and lot of running about on all the floors, but the key is not traceable.

Fed up, after half an hour, Mukesh leaves in a chauffeur driven ordinary Ikon car.

At 3.30 P.M. late in the afternoon it is discovered that 4 days back, a temporary replacement maid had washed Mukesh's pants and hung it to dry on a string in the balcony of 16th floor, with car keys in the pant pocket.

They had blown away somewhere in the high winds at 16th floor level and was never found. This was found out because of Nitai's habit of checking clothes given for ironing personally.

Mukesh and Nita leave the lost key matter for time being.

After 3 days Nita complained to Mukesh: "Where were you  roaming till 3 A.M. last night?"

Mukesh said the he was at home all night.

Nita: "Then why did the helicopter land in the terrace at 3 A.M. I was so much worried. I could not sleep whole night."

Mukesh: "Oh that one? That helicopter came from Germany, sent by Mercedes people to deliver the duplicate car key."

ROTFL??!!!

Ciya!!!
