The aim of this course is to present the rich literature and culture of Ancient India and help students appreciate their
deep influence on Indian Life - Vedic culture, primary source of Indian Culture – Brief introduction and appreciation of
a few of the art forms of India - Arts, Music, Dance, Theatre.

India is home to one of the most diverse Art forms world over. The underlying philosophy of Indian life is ‘Únity in
Diversity” and it has led to the most diverse expressions of culture in India. Most art forms of India are an expression
of devotion by the devotee towards the Lord and its influence in Indian life is very pervasive. This course will introduce
students to the deeper philosophical basis of Indian Art forms and attempt to provide a practical demonstration of the
continuing relevance of the Art.
Indian mode of worship is unique among the world civilizations. Nowhere in the world has the philosophical idea of
reverence and worshipfulness for everything in this universe found universal acceptance as it in India. Indian religious
life even today is a practical demonstration of the potential for realization of this profound truth. To see the all-
pervading consciousness in everything, including animate and inanimate, and constituting society to realise this truth
can be seen as the epitome of civilizational excellence. This course will discuss the principles and rationale behind
different modes of worship prevalent in India.
The traditional percussion ensembles in the Temples of Kerala have enthralled millions over the years. The splendor of
our temples makes art enthusiast spellbound, warmth and grandeur of color combination sumptuousness of the
outline, crowding of space by divine or heroic figures often with in vigorous movement are the characteristics of murals.
The mural painting specially area visual counterpart of myth, legend, gods, dirties, and demons of the theatrical world,
Identical myths are popular the birth of Rama, the story of Bhīma and Hanuman, Shiva, as Kirata, and the Jealousy of
Uma and ganga the mural painting in Kerala appear to be closely related to, and influenced by this theatrical activity
the art historians on temple planes, wood carving and painting the architectural plane of the Kerala temples are built
largely on the pan-Indians almost universal model of the Vasthupurusha.
