The Dhyanalinga is a Yogic temple located from Coimbatore, Tamil Nadu. The temple was consecrated by Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev, a yogi and mystic. The temple is consecrated using ''prana prathista'' and is dedicated for meditation. Silence is maintained inside the temple. Dhyana in the Sanskrit language, means meditation and linga means form. Dhyanalinga is claimed by the owners of the temple to be a powerful and unique energy form created from the distilled essence of yogic sciences and the first of its kind to be completed in over 2,000 years.〔Sadhguru Jaggi Vasudev: "Dhyanalinga: The Silent Revolution", Isha Foundation, 2000, ISBN 978-81-87910-00-8〕 The Dhyanalinga Yogic Temple offers a meditative space that does not ascribe to any particular faith or belief system. == Architecture == A large ellipsoidal dome covers the sanctum sanctorum. The dome was designed by architect Satprem Maïni and the Auroville Earth Institute, and constructed by volunteers of the Isha Foundation using only country fired bricks and cement stabilized mud mortar, without steel or concrete. The dome is 76 ft (23.2 m) in diameter and 33 ft (10.1 m) in height. The lingam is 13 ft (4 m) in height made of high density black granite. The Sarva Dharma Sthamba, located at the front entrance, functions as an icon of singularity, with the sculptural reliefs and symbols of Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Jainism, Taoism, Zoroastrianism, Judaism, Buddhism, and Shinto inscribed as a universal welcome. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dhyanalinga」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
