ഇന്ത്യയിലെ യുനെസ്‌കോ ലോക പൈതൃക കേന്ദ്രങ്ങൾ

ഇന്ത്യയിൽ നിന്നും 40 (32 സാംസ്കാരികം, 7 പാരിസ്ഥിതികം, 1 സമ്മിശ്രം) ലോകപൈതൃകകേന്ദ്രങ്ങളെയാണ് ഇതുവരെ (ജൂലൈ 2016) യുനെസ്കോ രേഖപ്പെടുത്തിയിരിക്കുന്നത്.[1][2]                

1972 നവംബർ 16- ന് യുനെസ്കോയുടെ വേൾഡ് ഹെറിറ്റേജ് "കൻവെൻഷൻ കൺസേർണിങ്ങ് ദി പ്രൊട്ടക്ഷൻ ഓഫ് ദി വേൾഡ് കൾച്ചറൽ ആൻഡ് നാച്ചുറൽ ഹെറിറ്റേജ് " ആണ് ലോകരാജ്യങ്ങളിലെ പൈതൃകങ്ങൾ സംരക്ഷിക്കാൻ വേണ്ട ശ്രമങ്ങൾക്ക് സ്ഥായിയായ തുടക്കമിട്ടത്. യുനെസ്കോയുടെ ജനറൽ അസംബ്ലി തിരഞ്ഞെടുക്കുന്ന വേൾഡ് ഹെറിറ്റേജ് കമ്മിറ്റി ആണ് പൈതൃക പട്ടികയിലേക്കുള്ള സ്ഥലങ്ങളും , സ്മാരകങ്ങളും മറ്റു നിർമ്മിതികളും കണ്ടെത്തുന്നത്. പാരിസ്ഥിതികവും സാംസ്കാരികവുമായ 10 പ്രത്യേകതകൾ പരിഗണിച്ചാണ് പട്ടികയിലേക്കുള്ള തിരഞ്ഞെടുപ്പ് നടത്തുന്നത്.ഇതുവരെ   (AD-2012) യുള്ള കണക്കു പ്രകാരം 157 രാജ്യങ്ങളിൽ നിന്നായി 962 കേന്ദ്രങ്ങളാണ് പൈതൃക പട്ടികയിൽ ഇടം പിടിച്ചത്. ഏറ്റവും കൂടുതൽ പൈതൃകകേന്ദ്രങ്ങൾ പട്ടികയിൽ ഇടം പിടിച്ചിട്ടുള്ളത് ഇറ്റലിയിൽ നിന്നാണ്, 55 എണ്ണം. സാംസ്കാരികമോ സ്വാഭാവികമോ ആയ പൈതൃകങ്ങൾക്കു പ്രാധാന്യമുള്ള സ്ഥലങ്ങളാണ് ഇവയെല്ലാം.[3] [4]


ഇന്ത്യയിൽ നിന്നും ആദ്യമായി ലോകപൈതൃകപ്പട്ടികയിൽ ഇടം നേടിയത് ആഗ്ര കോട്ട, അജന്ത ഗുഹകൾ എന്നിവയാണ്. 1983-ലെ വേൾഡ് ഹെറിറ്റേജിന്റെ ഏഴാം സെഷനിലാണ് ഇവ രേഖപ്പെടുത്തിയത്. യുനെസ്കോ ലോക പൈതൃകപട്ടികയിൽ, ഇന്ത്യയിൽ നിന്നും ഉൾപ്പെട്ട സ്ഥലങ്ങൾ.

The first temple was built by Emperor Ashoka in the 3rd century BC (260 BC) around the Bodhi Tree Ficus religiosa (to the west of the temple). However, the temples seen now are dated between 5th and 6th centuries AD. The structures have been built in bricks. Revered and sanctified as the place where Siddhartha Gautama Buddha was enlightened in 531 BC at age 35, and then propagated his divine knowledge of Buddhism to the world, it has been the ultimate temple for reverential worship, over the last several centuries, by Buddhists of all denominations, from all over the world who visit on pilgrimage. The main temple is 50 m in height, built in ഇന്ത്യn architectural style, dated between 5th and 6th centuries, and it is the oldest temple in the ഇന്ത്യn sub-continent built during the "Golden Age" of ഇന്ത്യn culture credited to the Gupta period. Sculpted balustrades of the Ashokan times (3rd century BC) are preserved in the Archaeological Museum located within the temple complex.[15][16]

Delhi, ഇന്ത്യ 015 1572 232, 1993, (ii), (iv) Humayun’s Tomb, Delhi, the first tomb built with several innovations, set at the centre of luxurious gardens with water channels, was the precursor monument to the Taj Mahal (built a century later). It was built in 1570 and was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Monument in 1993 for its cultural importance. It was built in 1569–1570 by the second Mughal Emperor Humayun’s widow Biga Begum (Hajji Begum). Its architecture is credited to Mirza Ghiyath and its Mughal architectural style has been acclaimed as the "necropolis of the Mughal dynasty" for its double domed elevation provided with Chhatris. Apart from the tomb of Humayun, the funerary also has 150 tombs of various members of the royal family. The tomb is built with a char-bagh (fourfold) layout with two gates, one on the south and the other on the west. It has a number of water channels, a pavilion and a bath.

05 Qutb Minar and its Monuments, Delhi  

 

Delhi, ഇന്ത്യ 015 Late 12th century 233, 1993, (iv) Qutb Minar and its Monuments, Delhi, located to the south of Delhi, is a complex with the Qutb Minar as the centre piece, which is a red sandstone tower of 72.5 metres (238 ft) height with a base of 14.32 metres (47.0 ft) reducing to 2.75 metres (9.0 ft) diameter at the top. Built in the beginning of the 13th century, the complex of structures comprises itineraries, the Alai Darwaza Gate (1311), the Alai Minar (an incomplete mound of the intended Minar or tower), the Qubbat-ul-Islam Mosque (the earliest existing mosque in ഇന്ത്യ), the tomb of Iltumish, and an Iron Pillar. The complex is a testimony to the Islamic depredations during the period as seen from the materials used for building the complex which are those that were removed after destroying Hindu and Jain temples; a shining iron pillar of 7.02 metres (23.0 ft) height (without any trace of rusting) erected at the centre of the complex, with inscriptions in Sanskrit, of the Chandra Gupta II period is a moot witness. History records its construction, initially by Qutubuddin Aibak in 1192, its completion by Iltumish (1211–36) and again by Alauddin Khalji (1296–1316). It underwent several renovations by subsequent rulers, following damage to the structures due to lightning.

It represents the glory of the Mughal rule and is considered the Highpoint of Mughal architectural, artistic aesthetic creativity. The architectural design of the structures built within the fort represents a blend of Persian, Timuri and ഇന്ത്യn architectural styles; Isfahan, the Persian Capital is said to have provided the inspiration to build the Red Fort Complex. The planning and design of this complex, in a geometrical grid plan with pavilion structures, was the precursor of several monuments which were built later in Rajasthan, Delhi, Agra and other places. The palace complex has been fortified by an enclosure wall built with red sand stone (hence the name Red Fort). It is adjacent to the Salimgarh Fort on its north built by Islam Shah Suri in 1546 and is now part of the Red Fort Complex (area covered 120 acres) under the revised inscription of the UNESCO World Heritage List under categories (i),(ii), (iii) and (vi).

The palace within the fort complex, located behind the Diwan-i-Am (Hall of Public Audience), comprises a series of richly engraved marble palace pavilions, interconnected by water channels called the ‘Nehr-i-Behishit’ meaning the "Stream of Paradise", the Diwane-i-khas (Private audience hall), several other essential private structures, and also the Moti Masjid (Pearl Mosque built by Emperor Aurangzeb).[21][22]

These monuments are mainly in the former capital of Velha Goa. Velha Goa is also known Goem, Pornem Gõy, Adlem Gõi, Old Goa or Saibachem Gõi, where Saib or Goencho Saib refers to Saint Francis Xavier. The most significant of these monuments is the Basilica of Bom Jesus, which enshrines the tomb containing the relics of St. Francis Xavier. These monuments of Goa, known as the "Rome of the Orient," were established by different Catholic religious orders, from 25 November 1510 onwards. There were originally 60 churches of which some of the surviving monuments in the city of Velha Goa are the Saint Catherine's Chapel (where one of the first, probably only besides the Angediva Island, Latin rite mass in Asia, was held on Saint Catherine's feast day- i.e. 25 November 1510), the Church and Convent of Saint Francis of Assisi, the Sé Catedral de Santa Catarina dedicated to Saint Catherine of Alexandria, the Jesuit Borea Jezuchi Bajilika or Basílica do Bom Jesus, Igreja de São Francisco de Assis (also known as Asisachea Sanv Fransiskachi Igorz), the Theatine Igreja da Divina Providência (São Caetano) (also known as San Kaitanachi Igorz or the church of Saint Cajetan and its seminary (resembles Basilica Papale di San Pietro in Vaticano), Igreja de Nossa Senhora do Rosário (also known as Ruzai Saibinnichi Igorz (Church of Our Lady of the Rosary)) and Igreja de Santo Agostinho (also known as Sanv Agustineachi Igorz (Church of Saint Augustine) (only the belfry stands today and some graves, including the Georgian Orthodox Church Saint, Saint Ketevan, who was also a queen). These monuments were forerunners in establishing an ensemble of the Manueline, Mannerist and Baroque art forms in the Asian region. The monuments are built in laterites and walls plastered with limestone mortar mixed with broken shells. For this reason, the monuments need constant maintenance to prevent deterioration due to monsoon climatic conditions, and thus keep them in good shape.[23][24]

The work, supervised by the great Mughal himself, was completed in 1573.

  110. http://www.gandhifoundation.net/about%20gandhi6.htm "Truth (satya) implies love, and firmness (agraha) engenders and therefore serves as a synonym for force. I thus began to call the Indian movement Satyagraha, that is to say, the Force which is born of Truth and Love or nonviolence, and gave up the use of the phrase "passive resistance", in connection with it, so much so that even in English writing we often avoided it and used instead the word "satyagraha" itself or some other equivalent English phrase."

Western pacifists have so far proved ineffective because they have thought that war can be resisted by mere propaganda, conscientious objection, and organization for settling disputes."
