Indus valley civilization V/s Vedic civilization: which one is older?
Description:-
Indus Valley Civilization & Hinduism: Threads Through Time
The Indus Valley Civilization, also known as the Harappan Civilization (3300-1300 BCE), flourished along the Indus River in what is now Pakistan and northwest India. While Hinduism is a well-established religion with a long history, the connection between these two is a topic of ongoing exploration and debate.
**Possible Links:**
* Chronology: The Indus Valley Civilization predates the commonly accepted origins of Hinduism (1500-500 BCE) by thousands of years. This raises the question of whether Indus Valley beliefs influenced the development of Hinduism.
* Archaeological Evidence: Indus Valley artifacts depict figures interpreted as potential deities, including a horned god and a mother goddess. These resonate with some Hindu deities, but the lack of deciphered script makes definitive connections difficult.
* Ritual Practices : The elaborate drainage systems and "Great Bath" at Mohenjo-daro suggest an emphasis on cleanliness, potentially a precursor to the importance of ritual bathing in Hinduism
:Uncertainties:
* Decipherment: The Indus Valley script remains undeciphered, making it challenging to understand their specific religious beliefs and practices.
* Continuity: There is a significant gap between the decline of the Indus Valley Civilization and the emergence of recognizable Hinduism. A clear link between the two cultures is yet to be established.
**Further Exploration:**
*John Marshall's Interpretations: In the 1930s, archaeologist John Marshall identified potential connections between Indus Valley artifacts and Hindu concepts like the Mother Goddess and the phallus (linga) symbol. These interpretations are still debated.
*Alternative Perspectives: Scholars like Wendy Doniger caution against drawing conclusive links without a deeper understanding of the Indus Valley culture.

বাংলার ঐতিহ্যবাহী বিষ্ণুপুর ঘরানার শাস্ত্রীয় সংগীত ও নৃত্যকলা আজ অন্তরালে
বিষ্ণুপুর ঘরানার সঙ্গীতের প্রধান বৈশিষ্ট্য হল এর মিষ্টি ও সুরেলা স্বর। এতে সাধারণ অলংকরণ প্রয়োগ করা হয়। এই ঘরানার সঙ্গীতের মধ্যে রাগ ও তালের সমন্বয় অত্যন্ত সুন্দর।
বিষ্ণুপুর ঘরানার দ্রুপদ সঙ্গীত অত্যন্ত জটিল ও কঠিন। এটি গাওয়ার জন্য গভীর তালিম ও দীর্ঘ অনুশীলন প্রয়োজন। বিষ্ণুপুর ঘরানার খেয়াল সঙ্গীতও অত্যন্ত সুন্দর ও পরিশীলিত। এতে রাগের বিভিন্ন সুরেলা উপস্থাপনা দেখা যায়।
বিষ্ণুপুর ঘরানার অঙ্গ গৌড়ীয় ঘরানার নৃত্যকলা ভারতীয় শাস্ত্রীয় নৃত্যের একটি ঘরানা। এই ঘরানার উৎপত্তি হয়েছিল পশ্চিমবঙ্গের বাঁকুড়া জেলার বিষ্ণুপুর শহরে। গৌড়ীয় ঘরানার নৃত্যকলা মূলত কৃষ্ণলীলার উপর ভিত্তি করে গড়ে উঠেছে। এই নৃত্যকলা প্রায়শই রাসলীলা বা কৃষ্ণপ্রেমের অন্যান্য ঘটনাকে উপস্থাপন করে।
এই নৃত্যকলা আজও বাংলার মানুষের মনে বিশেষ স্থান করে আছে।
