By Benoy K Behl
Introduction by Sujata Chatterji
In the Chola period, a great and sophisticated culture developed in Tamil Nadu. The temples of the early Chola period were not very large. The purpose was not to inspire awe through size and grandeur. It was to take us to the world of gentleness which can be found within us.
The grace of the sculpted figures and their profoundly peaceful expressions, awaken a sense of the sublime. The figures are fully occupied with the miracle of creation and the sense of stillness which comes from this absorption.
