Reference to the Kedarnath Temple is found is Ancient Hindu Scripture as old as 7th - 8th Century. It is still a mystery that the temple is first built by who and when. Nonetheless, the experience of pure divinity is in the air when you approach the temple which is surrounded by tall snow covered peaks of Himalayas.

 

Dedicated to Lord Shiva, the exquisitely architectured Kedarnath temple is built on an extremely large, heavy and evenly cut grey slabs of stones, it evokes wonder as to how these heavy slabs had been handled in the earlier days. The temple has a Garbha Griha for worship and a Mandap, apt for assemblies of pilgrims and visitors. A conical rock formation inside the temple is worshipped as Lord Shiva in his Sadashiva form.

Or that is what we want to believe...

  

Eigenlijk ist een beetje afgezaagd mja herhaling doet wonderen :-)

23/08/2008 : Oxford, Divinity School

Just slow time down and click your shutter...... oh, and point it at a buncha red leaves. This is straight out of the camera. Well, 'cept for the RAW to jpg.

The Divinity School is a medieval building and room in the Perpendicular style in Oxford, England, part of the University of Oxford.[2] Built between 1427 and 1483, it is the oldest surviving purpose-built building for university use, specifically for lectures and discussions on theology. It is no longer used for this purpose, although Oxford does offer degrees in divinity taught by its Faculty of Theology, which is housed at the Theology Faculty Centre, 41 St Giles', Oxford.[3]

The ceiling consists of very elaborate lierne vaulting with bosses, designed by William Orchard in the 1480s.[4]

The building is physically attached to the Bodleian Library and is also next to the Sheldonian Theatre where students gain their degrees. At the far end from the Bodleian Library entrance, a door leads to Convocation House (built 1634–7).[1]

This was clicked at the Chor Bazaar's antique market. To me, this looks like one of those Thai goddess whose roots are said to in Hinduism.

..in Greek mythology, female divinity associated with various natural objects. It is uncertain whether they were immortal or merely long-lived. There was an infinite variety of nymphs. Some represented various localities, e.g., acheloids, or nymphs of the River Achelous; others were identified with the part of nature in which they dwelled, e.g., oreads, or mountain nymphs; and still others were associated with a particular function of nature, e.g., hamadryads, or tree nymphs, whose lives began and ended with that of a particular tree. Nymphs were represented as young, beautiful, musical, amorous, and gentle, although some were associated with the wilder aspects of nature and were akin to satyrs; others were vengeful and capable of destruction, as in the story of *Daphne. Other important nymphs were naiads, nymphs of streams, rivers, and lakes; nereids, daughters of Nereus, who lived in the depths of the Mediterranean Sea; dryads, tree nymphs; and oceanids, 3,000 ocean nymphs who were the daughters of Oceanus. Arethusa, Thetis, Calypso, and Echo were famous nymphs. The nymphs' cult was widespread in Greece.

  

(*: Daphne, in Greek mythology, a nymph. She was loved by Apollo and by Leucippus, a mortal who disguised himself as a nymph to be near her. When Leucippus betrayed his sex while bathing, the nymphs tore him to pieces. Apollo then pursued Daphne, who prayed to Gaea for aid and was changed into a laurel tree. )

Oxford

This building is part of the Bodleian Library...this ceiling just blew me away! It's from the reign of Edward IV - my favourite period of history . The people who contributed to its cost had their arms, or initials if they didn't have arms, emblazoned into the pattern.

 

Built 1427–83, it is the oldest surviving purpose-built building for university use, specifically for lectures and discussions on theology. It is no longer used for this purpose, although Oxford does offer degrees in divinity taught by its Faculty of Theology, which is housed at the Theology Faculty Centre, 41 St Giles', Oxford.

The ceiling consists of very elaborate lierne vaulting with bosses, designed by William Orchard in the 1480s.

When Beeson Divinity School was founded in 1988, one of Mr. Beeson's wishes was that the Divinity School house a "special" chapel. In the fall of 2002, the chapel was officially named in honor of Andrew Gerow Hodges, close personal friend and advisor to the late Mr. Ralph Beeson.

  

The chapel dome weighs 90,000 pounds. Its exterior diameter is 41 feet and is110 feet high atop the lantern. Primarily copper in content, it contains 10,000 pounds of 16-ounce sheets laid in 12-inch x 18-inch strips, and 22 tons of steel.

My wife and I explored around Rochester's Highland Park area while on our way to see our friends new baby. While turning around at the Colgate Rochester Divinity School I saw these footprints in the snow and immediately thought of the title, so had to shoot it.

Elliot: “No. This is her cousin, Magpie Callaghan. She’s a violinist. I saw her in concert once and stole this poster… “

 

Female photographer: “Uh-huh.”

 

Elliot (defensively): “Hey, it’s NOT like anybody needed it! Not more than I did, anyway.”

 

Female photographer: “Oh, if you put it that way…”

 

Elliot: “I ain't sure if that was a hint or not… I hope it wasn’t, ‘cause then your mind would be as dirty as mine. Just so you know: I don’t admire this lady for the way she looks, but for the way she plays that violin. I mean: she’s totally gorgeous and all, but the beauty we may have on the outside is totally overrated. It’s all just a shell that covers the beauty we have on the inside.”

 

Female photographer: “And you’ve been thinking this way since when?”
