This article describes the different types of temples used in Hinduism. An understanding of these types of temples will help you understand why certain things are found inside them.
The temple is one of the three major symbols of Hinduism (the other two being the holy book Shiva's Lingam and the human form of Shiva called the Pandava). A temple can be any structure of significance to Hindus that serves as a place of prayer and meditation.
There are several categories of temples depending on their material composition and intended use. These include:
Vedic temples - made of wood or brick and used for rituals associated with the Vedas (the oldest scriptures in the world; they date back over 5000 years)
Sikhara temple - has a tower at the top called a gandi; it is usually made of granite but can also be made of sandstone or marble
The vast majority of temples are between 30 and 60 meters (100 and 200 feet) long. A small number of Doric temples, including the Parthenon, range in length from 60 to 80 m (200–260 ft). The longest surviving Greek temple is the Athene Temple in central Athens, which is 85 meters (280 ft) long.
The average size of a temple in classical Greece was about 15 by 10 meters (50 by 33 feet), but there were very large temples as well as small ones. The largest known Greek temple is that of Artemis Brakoi in eastern Greece. It is 180 meters (590 feet) long and has 50 columns supporting its roof.
In general, colonies built temples to their main deity for protection from evil and to pray for good crops and healthy children. City-states like Athens or Sparta usually didn't have enough people to need such large structures, so they usually built smaller versions of these monuments, called "propylaea", at their entranceways to show off their power. These propylaea were often made of marble and included various ornamental details like sculptures of lions or other animals to protect against evil.
As time passed, many cities throughout Greece began building temples to their gods instead of using propylaea.
23 feet tall The temple stood 23 feet (7 meters) tall, 18 feet (5 meters) broad, and 27 feet (8 meters) long, with front and rear colonnades supported by four Ionic columns each. Pentelic marble, the famed golden-white stone from Mount Pentelicus northeast of downtown Athens, was used to create it. The temple took 10 years to build at a cost of around $600,000 in today's money.
The temple was one of the most important structures of its time. It was built during the period of Athenian greatness, immediately after they defeated their archrival city Sparta in 431 B.C. The building of the temple therefore can be seen as an expression of patriotism and nationalism. It also served as a place where citizens could come and pray for Athens to continue to prosper.
Athenians believed that their city was guided by the goddess Athena who wanted her people to be peaceful and wise. So, when you go to visit the temple today, you can still see traces of the original painting on the inside walls. These paintings show women spinning wool, men training horses, and children playing near water sources.
Also on display inside the temple are two large gold statues known as the "Charity" and the "Prayer". The figures were originally placed on either side of the entrance but now stand in the museum instead.
People travel from all over the world to see the temple and its interior decorations.
The highest spire is in the middle. It is the only temple in the world with five spires. It was built somewhat bigger than the Idaho Falls temple, with a floor size of 95,000 sq ft (8,800 m2) with four ordinance chambers and seven sealing rooms. The walls are of dressed granite with a light gray color and they stand 16 feet (5 m) high.
This is one of the most famous temples in America and has been listed as an American National Historic Landmark. It is located in Salt Lake City, Utah, United States.
The name "The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints" comes from a revelation received by Joseph Smith in 1832. In this revelation, God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ announced that their church would be restored to the earth after it had been lost for almost all nations worshiping other gods will relapse into sin. This restoration would be through the ministry of Jesus Christ on the earth before He returns again. Thus, the church is also known as the "Church of Jesus Christ".
Today, this church has 12 million members worldwide and has set up headquarters in downtown Chicago. It has 14 missions throughout the world including the United States.
With a total floor size of 47,224 sq ft (4,387.3 m2), three ordinance chambers, and six sealing rooms, it is the smallest of the three temples. The Cardston and Mesa temples were initially built to be around the same size, but an extension to the Mesa temple in 1974 increased its space to 113,916 sq ft (10,583 m2).
The Cardston Utah Temple was completed in 1992. It is located on a 20-acre (0.8 ha) site about 5 miles (8 km) south of downtown Salt Lake City. The temple has 287,000 square feet (26,522 m2) of floor space, more than any other Mormon temple.
It took 14 years to complete the Cardston temple, which was dedicated by Gordon B. Hinckley on September 23, 2006. At that time, it was announced that this would be the last new Mormon temple for some time due to the increasing cost of building projects. However, two more temples have been constructed since then: one in Spokane, Washington, and another in Raleigh, North Carolina.
In October 2007, construction began on a third Cardston temple, which will be identical to the first. It is expected to be completed in about 18 months at a cost of $150 million. This brings the total cost of the three temples to about $500 million.
The Temple of Jerusalem measured 460 meters to the east, 315 meters to the north, 280 meters to the south, and the western wall measured 485 meters. The above-ground walls reached a height of 30 meters (ten stories), and their foundations went as deep as 20 meters in certain places to reach bedrock. The entire complex was surrounded by an outer wall that was about 2.5 kilometers around. The Temple itself was a rectangular area with a maximum length of 150 feet and a width of 90 feet. It sat on a platform that was divided into nine sections by rows of columns. At one end was a large open court called the Horeb where Jews gathered for religious services and celebrations.
The Temple was built over a period of seven years (530 B.C.) by slaves and prisoners who were given food and clothing but no pay. It was completed in 516 B.C. at a cost of approximately $12 million in today's money. The Israelites had been enslaved for four decades before this time so most people were unemployed during construction. However, they saw it as a sacred duty to serve God by building His house so they could have eternal life.
The priests conducted religious ceremonies inside the Temple every day except on holy days when they performed them in the courtyard outside. On special occasions, such as Passover or the Day of Atonement, they also opened the doors of the Temple to the public. Women would enter first and then men.
