Dr. Benny Kuriakose talks about the mesmerising Brihadeeswara Temple in Thanjavur, Tamil Nadu, where he got the opportunity to experience the area above the Sanctum Sanctorum of the temple. Bewitched by the enchanting view, he senses the missing links in design when architecture is designed merely to be seen or photographed and not to be experienced. He feels the need for modern architecture to come closer to traditional practices to bring back the essence of our heritage structures and not ignorantly stray from the past with the belief that they are superstitious.
