President Pratibha Devisingh Patil has inaugurated the Global Vipassana Pagoda at Gorai in Mumbai on Sunday. The 325 feet tall pagoda structure has been established by the Global Pagoda Foundation to promote the practice of Vipassana.

The tall pagoda building looms majestically over the GVF complex, spread over 13 acres of lush greenery, near picturesque Gorai in northwest Mumbai, barely a kilometre from the Arabian Sea. Pagodas are multi-tiered structures common in China, Japan, Thailand, Myanmar, Sri Lanka and other countries where Buddhism is followed.

Japanese Buddhist Temple, Japanese Buddhist Temple Beacons for world peace This is a Nipponzan Myohoji Temple. Nipponzan Myohoji is a Buddhist order founded in Japan in 1917 by the Most Venerable Nichidatsu Fujii. After Japan experienced the nuclear holocaust of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Ven. Fujii led the construction of Peace Pagodas in Japan and then throughout the whole world. They were to stand as beacons for world peace. The Peace Pagoda to the north of the this Temple at Willen Lake was the first to be built in the West. It symbolised the presence of Buddha and represents the efforts the Nipponzan Myohoji order continue to make towards a peaceful world. The monks and nuns walk the world giving witness for peace, making their presence known at regional conflict points and continuously supporting the peace efforts of others. In 1980, the Ven. Fujii was asked by a sceptical journalist whether the Peace Pagoda in Milton Keynes could possibly help end the Cold War. He said: "Of course it will." Ten years later, the Iron Curtain collapsed. Design and Construction This Temple is unique, a testament to the commitment of the Nipponzan Myohoji order to Milton Keynes and its people. It was designed by the lateProfessor Ohka in association with Tom Hancock FRIBA, and is loosely based on the traditional form of Fudo Hall, Kongobu-ji at Mount Koya, Japan. The building also serves as a small monastery with residential accommodation. Nipponzan Myohoji monks and nuns began their <b>...</b>

Chinese Lesson , Taiwan Dragon and Tiger Pagoda


This year is the 10th year of Wannian Folklore Festival(10/16-10/24) in Zuoying, Kaohsiung Taiwan. The purposes of boom the economics of Zuoying and preserving Taiwanese traditional culture gave birth to this festival in the year of 2001. Here I was at Lotus Lake(蓮池潭) where its beauty and the harmoniousness predominate the whole place even when it was packed with visitors. My eyes were, however, instantly caught by Dragon and Tiger Pagoda(龍虎塔) as I strolled along Lotus Lake. The meaning or the belief of "Expelling bad luck, bring in good fortune" represents a strong sense of Taiwanese traditional culture as there are numbers of other cultural practices we have that are based on such a belief. Are you running out of your luck? Are you feeling down and out? A visit to Dragon and Tiger Pagoda could bring you the fortune you need! :D I am trying to save up Camera Fund for better quality videos to you all. I have been using the one I used in this video, which is the only one I have, for nearly two years and evidently, it doesn't have a good microphone because it's not a video camera.

Pagoda Forest, Shaolin Temple in Dengfeng of Henan Province


The pagoda forest in Shaolin Temple was a concentration of tomb pagodas for eminent monks, abbots and ranking monks at the temple. A rough count shows more than two hundred fifty tomb pagodas of various sizes, making it the biggest pagoda forest in China. The forest stands at the foot of Shaoshi Mountain about half a kilometer west of Shaolin Temple and is composed of pagodas dating from 791 to 1803. Most are stone and brick structures of one to seven storeys, under fifteen meters high--much smaller than pagodas for Buddhist relics--but they all carry the exact year of their construction and many carvings and inscriptions. They are in a variety of styles, but are mainly multi-eaved and pavilion-style. Their shapes are varied, including polygonal, cylindrical, vase, conical and monolithic, making the pagoda forest an exhibition of ancient pagodas, carvings and calligraphy of various dynasties. Here also lie the remains and traces of the activities of some eminent foreign monks. For example, in the eastern part of the forest a tomb pagoda built in 1339 in the Yuan Dynasty bears an epitaph written by a Japanese monk at Shaolin Temple, which is of elegant language and excellent handwriting. In the western part of the forest is a tomb pagoda built in 1564 in the Ming Dynasty for an Indian monk. Besides the pagoda forest there are many invaluable tomb pagodas scattered around Shaolin Temple. They include Faro Pagoda and Tongguang Pagoda, built in 689 and 771 in the Tang Dynasty <b>...</b>

Bagan Myanmar Burma Thousands of Temples Pagodas Monuments in a 41sq km Area - Phil in Bangkok


www.PhilinBangkok.com http www.IMInfoBlog.com The ruins of Bagan cover an area of 16 square miles (41 km2). The majority of its buildings were built in the 11th century to 13th century, during the time Bagan was the capital of the First Burmese Empire. It was not until King Pyinbya moved the capital to Bagan in AD 874 that it became a major city. However, in Burmese tradition, the capital shifted with each reign, and thus Bagan was once again abandoned until the reign of Anawrahta. In 1057, King Anawrahta conquered the Mon capital of Thaton, and brought back the Tripitaka Pali scriptures, Buddhist monks and craftsmen and all of these were made good use of in order to transform Bagan into a religious and cultural centre. With the help of a monk from Lower Burma, Anawrahta made Theravada Buddhism a kind of state religion, and the king also established contacts with Sri Lanka. In the 12th and 13th centuries, Bagan became a truly cosmopolitan centre of Buddhist studies, attracting monks and students from as far as India, Sri Lanka as well as the Thai and Khmer kingdoms. Among many other works, Aggavaṃsa's influential Saddanīti, a grammar of the language of the Tipiṭaka, would be completed there in 1154. In 1287, the kingdom fell to the Mongols, after refusing to pay tribute to Kublai Khan. Abandoned by the Burmese king and perhaps sacked by the Mongols, the city declined as a political centre, but continued to flourish as a place of Buddhist scholarship. After the earthquake <b>...</b>

Eindawyar Pagoda, Mandalay, Myanmar


Built in 1847 by King Bagan on the site of his old royal residence before the city of Mandalay was founded, hence its popular name Eindawyar, Mahalawka Ranthi is the formal title of this famous pagoda in Mandalay, Myanmar. A popular venue as headquarters for strikes as well as for holding mass meetings and public assemblies, it has played an historic role in the political upheavals of Burma since colonial times. We had a guided tour on a quiet Sunday morning by our gracious host, a grandson of the late pagoda patron U Kyaw, member of parliament before the miltary coup of 1962 and wealthy burgher of Mandalay.
