A. Sutherland - AncientPages.com - Engineering marvel of Indian architecture can be clearly seen in the country's temples.
However, it is not only about the work of ancient engineers of India; it is important to say that Hindu cosmology shapes the temples’ form because 'it recreates the universe and every person’s struggle, occurring over multiple lifetimes, to cast aside illusion in order to realize divine truth and oneness with an infinite god.' (India Revealed: Hindu Temples of South India)
Temples were built to house a sacred symbol of a particular god.
This structure is the mountain residence of the gods because according to Hindu cosmology, the gods have always been associated with mountains.
