The verdant and beautiful Kerala, well known for its flora and fauna and for its rich tradition of temples, has today become one of the must see destinations in the world. Temples have always been an integral part of the culture and tradition of Kerala. This small state has become famous for its efforts to preserve the ancient culture of the big temples as well as the small family shrines, keeping their rich variety and tradition intact. These temples play an important role in spreading the greatness of Kerala in countries all over the world. Temples of Kerala have never been mere places of worship; they have played a pivotal role in the social, financial, cultural and educational fields of the state. For the rehabilitation of the poor and the deprived many schemes have been implemented by the temples like providing food and shelter to the needy. Today, if there is a great progress in the field of tourism, the temples have certainly contributed much to it. A large number of foreigners come to the state to study and understand Kerala’s traditional temple arts like Kathakali, Chakiarkoothu, Ottamthullal etc. On the happy occasion of bringing out this book, we have endeavored to include details of the prominent Ayyappan temples outside Kerala, along with those of the great temples within the state.

The beautiful cultural tradition of murals in India is explained and presented in all its artistic glory in the striking photographs in this book and in the stories of the gods that graced these walls. Each muralist presented depicted the myths and legends of different Hindu deities, such as Visnu and his consort Laksmi, or Siva in different forms with his consort Parvati. The book also shows the process behind the mural making—the preparation of the plastered walls and of the colors, the rules of composition, proportion, poses, and perspective, and the good and bad qualities of a painting.

He initiated the present volume as a starting point for further research on temple art of North Kerala. The fascinating depictions and illustrations allow for vivid insights into the Hindu culture of this region."--BOOK JACKET.
