Science Behind Hindu Temples
Hindu temple sciences refer to the ancient Indian knowledge systems and practices that were developed to create and maintain Hindu temples. These sciences encompass a broad range of topics, including architecture, sculpture, iconography, astronomy, astrology, mathematics, and ritual practices.
The Hindu temple is not just a place of worship, but it is also considered to be a divine abode, where the deity resides. The temple is designed as a microcosm of the universe, reflecting the Hindu belief that the cosmos is an interconnected system, and everything in it is part of a larger divine plan.
