A Hindu temple reflects a synthesis of arts, the ideals of dharma, beliefs, values, and the way of life cherished under Hinduism. It is a link between man, deities, and the Universal Purusa in a sacred space.[19] It represents the triple-knowledge (trayi-vidya) of the Vedic vision by mapping the relationships between the cosmos (brahmanda) and the cell (pinda) by a unique plan that is based on astronomical numbers.
Hindu temples served as nuclei of important social, economic, artistic and intellectual functions in ancient and medieval India. Burton Stein states that South Indian temples managed regional development function, such as irrigation projects, land reclamation, post-disaster relief and recovery. The art of crafting toys out of wood is an ancient tradition. Manifesting in various forms across the Indian subcontinent, this handcrafted wooden truck is a product of the Kondapalli community of Andhra Pradesh. Around four centuries ago, the art that is now known as Kondapalli bommalu had come into existence.
Taking splendid Indian themes and elevating them to the status of praise, the ancient artisans of this craft were highly supported by the ruling kingdoms. India celebrates liveliness with a magnificent display of color in every aspect, from daily life to special festivities.
Kondapalli toys are excellent gifts due to the hours of specialized care that goes into the making of every single toy.
