SOUTH INDIA - GANGAIKONDACHOLAPURAM
Gangaikondacholapuram, 70 km from Tanjavur (Tamil Nadu), is a former capital of the Chola Empire built by King Rajendra I around 1025 to commemorate his victory over the Palas of Bengal and the Ganga dynasties of the East.
Its name means ‘The city of the Chola who brought back the water of the Ganges’ and refers to the legend of its foundation: it is said to have been built to commemorate victories in Bengal, with Rajendra ordering the sacred water of the Ganges to be transported to his new capital, where he had a huge reservoir built to store it.
The city survived until the 13th century, when it was destroyed by the Pandyas of Mysore. Only the Bradishvara temple remains today.
The structure of the Bradishvara temple at Gangaikondacholapuram makes it one of the most emblematic of South Indian Dravidian architecture. It is one of the most complete temples of the Chola period, and its sculpture is also remarkable.
This architecture is characterised by very large temples with immense portal towers or Gopurams. The entrance portal, which in this case has lost its gopuram, is followed by a large statue of the bull Nandi, wearing a collar and facing the sanctuary, which is followed by a small Nandi, blackened by offerings.
The heart of the sanctuary, square in plan, is surmounted by a pyramid-shaped tower called the Vimana, with increasingly smaller storeys. Here, the sanctuary rises to a height of 52 m, with a base measuring 32 m on each side.
A remarkable monument.

The "High Chaparral" village ( Kampong Buah Pala, oldest cattle farm in Penang) celebrated its Ponggal Festival (Harvest Thanksgiving) from 14-18 January.
"High Chaparral" originally an Indian cattle rearing community who were the biggest suppliers of fresh milk in Penang last century - narrowly escaped demolition by developers last year. This year's Ponggal was therefore doubly meaningful for the villagers.
The Ponggal is a 4-day harvest thanksgiving festival : a tradition occasion for giving thanks to nature for its bounty of food especially rice and milk. The 4-day festival culminated with traditional festivities on Sunday (18 Jan).

It was a test of manhood for young men at the 100th annual Ponggal festival at the “High Chaparral” of Penang.
In honour of the Harvest Festival, the Tamil community gathered to give thanks for the year’s prosperity and prove their worth through a series of daring competitions.
Groups of youths faced off with bulls, weighing over 400kg, in an effort to yank off garlands from their horns.
Each garland contained RM100 to be shared among the successful group of bull chasers.

Gangaikonda Cholapuram (Tamil: கங்கைகொண்ட சோழபுரம்) was erected as the capital of the Cholas by Rajendra Chola I, the son and successor of Rajaraja Chola, the great Chola who conquered a large area in South India, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Sumatra,
Kadaram (Kedah in Malaysia) at the beginning of the 11th century A.D. It occupies an important place in the history of India. As the capital of the Cholas from about 1025 A.D. for about 250 years, the city controlled the affairs of entire southern India, from the Tungabhadra in the north to Ceylon in the south and other south east Asian countries. The great temple of Siva at this place is next only to the Brihadisvara temple at Thanjavur in its monumental nature and surpasses it in sculptural quality.The Gangaikondaan temple is an architectural and engineering marvel because the shadow of the main tower never falls on the ground throughout the year.

Rajendra Kumar Roul: Eminent Indian classical singer and music director, better known as a noted vocalist of Jayadeva’s ‘Gita Govind’, Pandit Raghunath Panigrahi died of cardiac arrest at his residence here on Sunday, family sources said.
He was 80.
Pandit Panigrahi, who was diagnosed with throat cancer a couple of months back, suffered a heart attack at around 11:30 AM. However, he was rushed to the Capital Hospital, where the doctors declared him brought dead, the sources said.
The doyen of Odissi music maestro had celebrated his 79th birthday on August 10. Pandit Panigrahi is survived by two sons.
His wife, noted Odissi dancer Sanjukta Panigrahi, had passed away in 1997. Incidentally, Raghunath breathed his last, a day after his wife’s death anniversary on Saturday.
Pandit Panigrahi’s effort to popularise poet Jayadeva’s ’Gita Govinda’, which has been hailed as the fountainhead of Odissi music, not just in the state but worldwide, has been praised by his admirers.
Born at Gunupur in Odisha’s Rayaga (earlier Koraput) district, Panigrahi learnt from his father the classical way of singing ‘Gita Govinda’, which describes the unique relationship between Lord Krishna and the ‘Gopis’, as preserved in the traditions of the Lord Jagannath Temple in Puri.
Besides making his place in the world of classical music, Raghunath got the tag of being a ‘Suramani’ (a title given to him for his deeply mellifluous voice). He had also left an indelible mark on Odissi light classicals like ‘Na Jaa Radhika’ and an out-and-out modern love song like ‘Nali Nali Ei, Krushnachuda’ or ‘Nupoor Bajaai Kie’
Pandit Raghunath was the first Odia singer to be honoured by the French government for his ‘Gita Govinda’ composition way back in the 70s. However, the noted vocalist had to wait till 2010 for the Padmashri award, a belated honour for the great master.
The soft-spoken and ever smiling singer, however, was a man of determination when it came to taking bold decisions in life.
He decided to give up a very successful and lucrative career in Chennai as a playback singer for Telugu and Tamil films to team up with his newly married wife Sanjukta Panigrahi, who was then dreaming of launching a worldwide campaign to popularise the classical Odissi dance form.
It was a very tough life after that and the couple had problems tackling survival issues for quite a few years. But Pandit Raghunath refused to crack under pressure and continued to pursue the ‘great dream’ together with his better half.
He established the ‘Sanjukta Panigrahi Memorial Trust’, which spots and encourages budding Odissi singer and dancers and recognising excellence in the art.
A dog lover, neighbours of the legendary vocalist recalled in Ashok Nagar area of the city, recalled how the maestro would take every ailing or injured stray dog in the area under his care and nurse it back to health with care and attention.
Odisha governor S.C.Jamir and Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik were among those who condoled the death of the Odissi maestro.
“All of us are deeply distressed by the tragic demise of Pandit Raghunath Panigrahi. This is a real loss to the world of classical music and he will certainly be deeply missed by his many friends and admirers,” Mr. Patnaik said.
