Hinduism: What Really Happened in India – M. M. Ninan 195 Sanchi Buddhist Stupa was erected by Ashoka Maurya in the middle of the 3d century BC This north gate portrays some scenes from the life of Buddha. The Earliest “Hindu” Temple
Hinduism: What Really Happened in India – M. M. Ninan 196 The ealiest “Hindu” Temple is found in Tigawa, near modern Jabalpur. This has all the main characteristics of early Hindu temples - an inner garba-griha ( sanctum Sanctorum corresponding to the Madbaha of the Eastern Churches – the Holy of Holies ) surrounded by an ambulatory path or cella, an outer portico with columns in the front, and above all, a flat roof of stone. This is dated in the Gupta Period (AD 350-650). This is the simplest of early structures that may be called a temple with “Hindu” influence. Neither temples nor idols of modern Hinduism are found anywhere prior to this period. The only forms of religion prior to this period were Vedism, Buddhism and Jainism apart from probable local cults. As time passed these temple structures got more elaborate and intricate. Sadashiva Murthy in the Elephanta Caves off Bombay with its three faces - Tatpurusha-Mahadeva (center), Vamadeva-Uma (feminine - right side), Aghora-Bhairava (Masculine Fierce - left side) is heavily reminiscent of Hebrew Kabballa. These caves are thought to date back to the Silhara kings of the 9th through 12th centuries A.D. Some date it to 600 AD.
