About the Webinar:
Hindu temples are far more than architectural marvels or places of worship, they are sacred spaces that hold wisdom and purpose. Join Dr. Kanniks Kannikeswaran for a rich, engaging introductory webinar that offers a window into the history, meaning, and living traditions of Hindu temple culture.
How temples function as centers of culture, cosmology, and community, reflecting centuries of art, ritual, and spiritual practice. You’ll learn about key elements of temple architecture, the significance of sthala-puranas and local traditions, and the vibrant festival and worship practices that animate temple life — from ancient India to modern diaspora communities around the world.
Whether you’re intrigued by sacred art, fascinated by ritual life, or curious about how temples shape Hindu identity across time and geography, this webinar will give you a meaningful taste of what the full Hindu Temples and Traditions course offers. Join us to deepen your understanding, ask questions, and deepen your study of Hindu civilization and culture.
