あらすじ・解説
This episode of MASH podcast will focus on the grand legacy and the golden age of the Gupta dynasty, with a special focus on the Dashavatara temple and the iconography of Lord Vishnu.
It will delve into what the Trimurti — the collective of Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva — symbolises in the Hindu cosmology and their functions. We’ll also take a look at how Vishnu’s reverence gained momentum in Hinduism, and how the Vaishnavism sect of Hinduism rose to prominence in India between the 4th to 6th century.
If you’ve ever wondered how historians and archaeologists deduce the main deity of the temple and conduct a holistic research of the site? This podcast episode is for you!
