Temple de Kalighat

Le Temple de Kalighat (bengali : কালীঘাট মন্দির), sis à Kalighat, un faubourg sud de Calcutta, - et à proximité d’un des nombreux bras du Hooghly (appelé Adi Ganga, le ‘vieux Gange’) - est un temple hindou dédié à la déesse Kali (Ma Kali, la Mère Kali). Construit en 1802 en style bengali médiéval typique il est un des temples hindous les plus fréquentés de la ville de Calcutta. Étymologie Les 'ghats' sont les descentes en gradins vers les fleuves - ou vers toute autre pièce d’eau - que l’on trouve dans les villes et villages de l’Inde du Nord. Selon une hypothèse souvent mise en avant, le nom de la ville de Calcutta (aujourd’hui Kolkata) serait un dérivé de ‘Kalighat’. Légende et Histoire La légende veut qu’un orteil de la déesse Kâlî ait été trouvé par un dévot qui cherchait à comprendre pourquoi des rayons de lumière émergeaient du fleuve Bhagirathi (ancien cours du Gange, aujourd’hui le Hooghly). Une pierre ayant forme d’un orteil humain fut découverte. Le culte à la déesse Kali commença ainsi, à un endroit qui n’était encore qu’une vaste jungle. Le temple originel était une hutte. Un petit édifice fut érigé au début du XVIe siècle. Le bâtiment contemporain n’a que deux siècles d’existence, construit de 1802 à 1809, mais référence est faite à un temple dans des documents des XVe et XVIIe siècle. Une pièce de monnaie datant du règne de Chandragupta II, qui annexa le Bengale (appelé Banga), fut découverte à Kalighat. Elle témoigne de la grande ancienneté du site. Culte Le temple est visité par des dizaines de milliers de pèlerins tout au long de l’année mais particulièrement lors des festivals bengalis du Paila Baishak (Nouvel An ; en avril) et des Durga Puja (en octobre). La déesse Kali, malgré son apparence, est perçue et considérée comme une mère (Ma Kali) auprès de laquelle les dévots et pèlerins demandent aide pour la résolution de problèmes domestiques. Des sacrifices lui sont offerts. Jusqu’il n’y a pas longtemps, des sacrifices de chèvres étaient encore pratiqués à Kalighat. La responsabilité du culte au temple de Kalighat repose depuis l’origine entre les mains de la famille des Haldar, qui revendique également la propriété du terrain sur lequel il fut bâti, ce qui est contesté par d’autres. Particularité Comme beaucoup de temples, Kalighat avait un dharamsala qui hébergeait les pèlerins venus de loin. Ayant perdu sa raison d’être, de par l’urbanisation des environs, il fut confié à Mère Teresa par le brahmane de service au temple. En 1952, Mère Teresa y ouvrit un home pour moribonds, le Nirmal Hriday. Liens externes Site officiel Portail de l’hindouisme Portail de l’architecture et de l’urbanisme Portail de Calcutta
Kalin hram u Kalighatu

Hram božice Kali nalazi se u Kalighatu, Kolkata, Indija. U hinduizmu, Kali je oblik razorne snage Vrhovnog Bića. Prema hinduističkoj mitologiji, božica Kali boravi u hramu te etimologija naziva Kalighat dolazi od Kalina imena (Ghat = »obala rijeke«). Nakon što se njegova supruga Sati spalila, bog Šiva bijaše zaslijepljen ljutnjom te je počeo plesati »ples uništenja«. Kako bi spasio svijet, bog Višnu razdijelio je Satino truplo, pa su dijelovi pali na razna mjesta, koja postaše povezana sa ženskom energijom (Šakti). Izvori i bilješke

Hippodrome de Calcutta

L’hippodrome de Calcutta (en bengali : কলকাতা রেসকোর্স, en hindi : कलकत्ता रेसकोर्स, et en anglais : Kolkata Race Course) est un vaste champ de courses hippiques situé dans la partie méridionale du Maidan de Calcutta. Premier hippodrome construit dans l’Inde britannique (en 1819) il est toujours, avec son terrain de polo, le plus grand et important centre d’activités hippiques de l’Inde contemporaine. Histoire Il semble bien que les premières courses de chevaux aient eu lieu en 1769 dans les jardins du raja d’Oudh – déposé par les Anglais et en exil à Calcutta - dont les descendants occupaient le palais dans la région d’Akra, aujourd’hui Garden Reach, au sud de Calcutta. L’hippodrome était certainement modeste car seuls quatre chevaux pouvaient courir à la fois. En 1798 les courses furent interdites par Lord Wellestey, réformiste puritain. Cinq ans plus tard les courses reprennent, cette fois sous l’égide d’une association nouvellement créée, le ‘Bengal Jockey club’, et le champ de courses se déplace en 1809 vers le Maidan, où il se trouve encore aujourd’hui. Les courses avaient lieu tôt le matin et étaient suivies d’un somptueux breakfast. Elles étaient déjà notoirement connues et leurs résultats étaient publiés dans la presse locale, et même londonienne. La tribune est construite en 1819. La course la plus célèbre, le ‘Calcutta Derby Stakes’, premier ‘derby’ du sous-continent indien, fut disputée en 1842: quarante participants. Avec la coupe le vainqueur recevait 5000 Rs, une somme colossale à l’époque. Elle devint la ‘Viceroy cup’ en 1856 et changea plusieurs fois de nom, pour être disputée aujourd’hui sous le nom de ‘Élisabeth II cup’. En 1847 fut fondé le ‘Calcutta Turf Club’ qui gère encore aujourd’hui l’hippodrome et ses activités, et fait pratiquement la loi dans le domaine des courses hippiques de l’Inde. Le ‘Pari mutuel’ fut introduit en 1872 et la première ‘saison de mousson’ fut inaugurée en 1879 sur une piste adaptée au temps pluvieux. À partir de 1880 les courses eurent lieu l’après-midi. Durant les années 1870 le steeple-chase devenant populaire à Calcutta il fut pris sous l’autorité du 'Calcutta Turf Club' en 1888 qui introduisit le ‘Grand National’ en 1895. La dernière course de ce type eut lieu en 1929. Courses Les courses ont lieu du mois de juillet au mois de septembre (saison de la mousson) et de novembre à mars (hiver et printemps), généralement le samedi, mais également lors d’autres jours festifs. Les événements principaux, certains de grande ancienneté, sont la ‘Elizabeth II cup’, la ‘Governor’s cup’, l’India independence Cup’, et d’autres.

Gandhi Maidan

Gandhi Maidan is a historic ground in Patna, near the banks of the Ganges River, in Bihar, India. The Golghar lies to its west. During the period of 1824–1833, under British rule, it was used as a golf course and horse racing track and was called Patna Lawns. It is spread across 60 acres of land. It has a great political significance as well. Khairun Miya had donated this piece of land to help further the national movement and several important meetings of well-known freedom fighters were held here. History Several movements were launched on the Patna Lawns during the Indian freedom struggle, the most important being the Champaran movement and the Quit India movement of 1942. A number of prominent leaders of the Indian Independence Movement, such as Mahatma Gandhi, Rajendra Prasad, Anugrah Narayan Sinha, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Maulana Azad, Jawaharlal Nehru, Jayaprakash Narayan and Sri Krishna Sinha addressed their rallies from here. It was said that a leader had not arrived until he had addressed a rally at the Patna Lawns. JP Movement, the successful opposition movement to Indira Gandhi, was also launched from this historic ground. Presently, this ground is used for private parties, mass prayers and trade fairs. The flag-raising ceremony on the Indian Independence Day and Republic Day is held here by the Chief Minister and Governor of Bihar respectively. In the north western corner lies the Gandhi Sangrahalaya, which showcases various pictures and records of Mahatma Gandhi's presence and connections with Bihar. During 1947, it was the house of the Education Minister, Syed Mahmud. These grounds are situated near Ashok Rajpath in Moradpur and are 2.5 km from central Patna. During his Bihar visit at the time of Champaran Satyagraha, Mahatma Gandhi addressed a huge meeting at Patna Lawns. That meeting was the first time Indians were allowed to visit Patna Lawn without any restrictions. Until then, entry was restricted to Europeans and the elite (Loyalist Indians). The historic Patna Lawn was renamed Gandhi Maidan in 1948 after his assassination as a tribute. A statue of Gandhi was erected in 1990s near the southern end. World's tallest statue of Mahatma Gandhi On 27 October 2013, there were six serial bomb blasts at Gandhi Maidan just before the BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi reached there to address a huge gathering. Eight people were killed and 66 injured in the serial blasts. On 3 October 2014 a stampede took place in Gandhi Maidan, on the occasion of Dussehra festival, in which reportedly 32 people died.
