Bhikshatanar - showing the enchanted rishi patnis and the enraged rishi. |
More in my earlier post: http://stonestories.blogspot.in/2015/08/bhikshatanar-and-annapoorni-at-lepakshi.html
The monuments and temples in India abound with exquisite sculptures based on the epics. This is a humble attempt to explain some of them.This is no scholarly work.I have only collected these from several sources- oral, printed and on-line. There can be no authentic version of such stories as there are many variations and interpretations . I have left out the complex explanations and debates to just give an overview of episodes depicted in stone. All photographs by (C) V.Harihara Subramanian.
