The festival, marking the birth of the 24th and last Tirthankara of Jainism, Lord Mahavira, is celebrated with pomp among the Jain community around the globe. People carry out rath yatras, visit temples, donate to the poor, and chant hymns to commemorate the auspicious occasion.

Ancient Jain temples across India typically see an extremely high volume of practitioners come to pay their respects and join the celebrations.

Know the date of Mahavir Jayanti:

Mahavir Jayanti is celebrated widely among the Jain community around the globe. According to the Gregorian calendar, Mahavir Jayanti is celebrated in March or April. This year, Mahavir Jayanti is set to be celebrated on April 21 (Sunday).

History and Significance of Mahavir Jayanti

Mahavir Jayanti marks the birth anniversary of Lord Mahavira. He was born to King Siddhartha and Queen Trishala in the ancient kingdom of Vaishali. There are debates about his birth date among the Swetambar Jains, and Digambar Jains. While the Swetambar Jains believe that Lord Mahavira was born in 599 BC, the Digambar Jains believe that he was born in 615 BC. According to the Hindu calendar, he was born on the 13th day of the Chaitra Month.

As believed by the Swetambar community, Lord Mahavira’s mother, Queen Trishala, had 14 dreams. The astrologers interpreted her dreams. They said Mahavira would either become a great ruler or a sage (Tirthankara). At the age of 30 years, he left his throne and family and lived in exile for 12 years. As he lived in exile, he preached non-violence and equality. It is believed that at the age of 72, he attained enlightenment.

Lord Mahavira dedicated his life to preaching the values of non-violence, and truth. He developed a five-fold path naming it ‘Ahimsa’, ‘Asteya’, ‘Brahmacharya’, ‘Satya’ and ‘Aparigraha’. People belonging to the Jain community follow these vows and spread the message of peace and harmony. His teachings remain relevant even today.

World Heritage Day | How does technology help preserve and protect heritage 

KV Prasad Jun 13, 2022, 06:35 AM IST (Published)

Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

Preservation of heritage is often broad ranged and interdisciplinary. But the technology has helped speeding up preservation, especially digitisation of collections. And the new generation technologies, including artificial Intelligence (AI), Deep Learning and Machine Learning, Augmented and Virtual Realities etc., have literally revolutionised it.  

The World Heritage Day, observed on April 18 every year, has chosen the theme — Discover and Experience Diversity — this year, and it stresses the need for technology driven preservation. Natural landscapes, historical monuments, cultural practices, traditions, rituals and ancient ruins are part of the world’s heritage, and they need preservation and protection. Here is a look at how the new technologies actually help carry forward their preservation. 

While there is a lot of importance being given to preservation of cultural heritage, there are equal amount of challenges too. Use of new technological tools that could assist in bridging the gap. Besides, the pandemic has brought to the fore newer methods for restoration and preservation of heritage.

AI and Heritage 

A variety of AI-powered tools are being used to preserve the cultural heritage and create an accurate digital replica of the historical sites for the future generations. These digital replicas can help the researchers to study a wide range of cultural heritage items.  Some AI-equipped translation software can be used to enhance the accessibility of documents, manuscripts and texts to a wider audience.

In 2019, Microsoft started a platform — AI for Cultural Heritage, for leveraging the power of AI to empower people and organisations that are dedicated to the preservation and enrichment of cultural heritage. 

This platform demonstrated how technology can serve as a useful tool for helping people preserve and connect to cultural heritage on a global scale. As part of the initiative, Microsoft supports through collaborations, partnerships and investment in AI technology and resources.  Under this,  Microsoft and Museum of Art and Photography (MAP), Bengaluru, have also launched an AI powered platform for connecting artworks around the world. The platform— Interwoven, is rooted in MAP’s collection of South Asian textiles. 

For using AI in the domain of cultural heritage, priority should be given on investment in several areas which includes infrastructure and human resources. There is a need for qualified manpower that feed high quality data.  The copyright issues also needs to be resolved in such cases. 

A recent report —Artificial intelligence in the context of cultural heritage and museums: Complex challenges and new opportunities, which emphasise the importance of AI in cultural heritage reconstruction, says that it has been made obvious in the case of the destruction by fire of the Notre Dame de Paris cathedral. This was also a typical example of how a digital product can contribute to the reconstruction effort. 

AI is changing the digitisation process and making it more accurate. AI-powered imaging techniques have assisted in improving the quality of the digitalised images. Machine Learning algorithms can look into the environmental conditions to detect the potential risks for preservation.

Besides assisting in the revival of damaged images of historical documents, Deep Learning models can also restore the visual appearance of cultural heritage. AI driven data analysis, combined with Virtual Reality (VR) technology allows accurate reconstruction of cities and monuments. 

New AI tools have provided avenues to produce tools for documenting, managing and visiting cultural heritage. Among the various challenges are limited awareness, scarcity of funds and unskilled human resources. Access to a large set of data can be challenging due to restrictions. 

Tech Travel 

Virtual Reality (VR) allows the creation of interactive digital models of heritage objects. VR devices can help a walk through the sites and experience a sense of immersion in the heritage environment. 

To create digital and virtual models, laser scanners are used to build highly accurate three-dimensional digital models of buildings and monuments. These models can be used to document the current condition of the objects and plan restoration. Digitisation entails absorbing some high quality digital representations of cultural heritage, historical documents and artworks. 

There are also monitoring systems and sensors that measure and record environmental factors that can affect the conservation of heritage assets, such as humidity, temperature, air quality and others. Laser scanning and photogrammetry are some other technologies that help in digitising the cultural heritage. This will establish a digital library for researchers, which in turn can spur the cultural vibrancy.

Ram Navami 2024: First visual of Surya Tilak on Ram Lalla idol surfaces — Watch video

KV Prasad Jun 13, 2022, 06:35 AM IST (Published)

Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

At noon, on the occasion of Ram Navami on April 17, the Sun’s rays illuminated the forehead of Ram Lalla in Ayodhya. The ‘Surya tilak’ on the deity’s forehead was made possible by an elaborate mechanism involving mirrors and lenses. This is the first Ram Navami since the consecration of the idol of Lord Ram at the Ram temple, inaugurated by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on January 22.

The system was tested by scientists on Tuesday. “The basic objective of the Surya Tilak project is to focus a ’tilak’ on the forehead of Shri Ram idol on every Shri Ram Navami day. Under the project, sunlight will be brought on the forehead of Lord Ram at noon on Shri Ram Navami in the Chaitra month every year,” Dr S K Panigrahi, scientist at CSIR-CBRI Roorkee, who was associated with the project told PTI.

The first video of the historic occassion went viral on social media. Watch it below:

He added, “The position of the Sun changes every year on the day of Shri Ram Navami. Detailed calculations show that the date of Shri Ram Navami repeats every 19 years.” According to a senior scientist of Council of Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR)-Central Building Research Institute (CBRI), Roorkee, the planned tilak size is 58 mm. The exact period of tilak on the forehead centre is about three to three-and-a-half minutes, with two minutes of full illumination, he said.

Meanwhile, a member of Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Teerth Kshetra Trust, Anil Mishra, told PTI, “During the Surya tilak, devotees will be allowed inside the Ram temple. Around 100 LEDs are being put up by the temple trust, and 50 by the government, which will show the Ram Navami celebrations. People will be able to see the celebrations from where they are present.”

Sharing his personal experience in installing this unique mechanism, Dr D P Kanungo, chief scientist at CSIR-CBRI, Roorkee said, “This is meticulously planned, designed and implemented to achieve utmost accuracy.” This will be a testament to our scientific acumen and indigenous technological development to showcase before our countrymen who have all the faith in and support to our scientific community, he said.

Listen to the Article (6 Minutes)

Ram Navami is an auspicious Hindu festival celebrated to honour the birth anniversary of Lord Ram. The festival falls on the ninth day of the Chaitra month during the Shukla Paksha, marking the conclusion of Chaitra Navratri. In 2024, Ram Navami will be celebrated on April 17 with fervour and devotion by millions of devotees all around the world.

In January this year, the historic Ram Temple in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, was inaugurated with the Pran Pratishtha ceremony. And now, on the occasion of the first Ram Navami after the inauguration of the temple, the idol of Lord Ram will receive the Surya Tilak on Wednesday.

According to reports, the Surya Tilak will take place at noon for 5 minutes on Ram Navami. During the process of Surya Tilak, the sun’s rays will symbolically mark the forehead of the statue of Ram Lalla’s idol. The idol will be placed at the Garbhagriha for exactly 5 minutes. Scientists have installed an optomechanical system that has an infrared filter with the ability to absorb or reflect high-energy photons without transferring the heat to the surface.

The team of scientists from the Central Building Research Institute (CBRI) in Roorkee have taken extra precautions placing the idol of Ram Lalla to protect it from extra heating. They have placed the infrared filter on the first floor from where the sun rays enter the Garbhagriha.

The brains behind the historic Surya Tilak of Lord Ram at Ram Mandir are the scientists from the Indian Institute of Astrophysics in Bengaluru and a private firm called Optics and Allied Engineering (Optica). The technology was devised with the further cooperation of the scientists from CBRI.

The optomechanical system will concentrate the light at the centre of Lord Ram’s forehead, which will be followed by a gradual fade. The objective of this Surya Tilak is to cast light on the forehead of Lord Ram’s statue with natural sunlight at noon on the Ram Navami. The optomechanical system is equipped with precision lenses and mirrors to harness sunlight on the forehead of Lord Ram’s idol.
