TEMPLE ELEPHANT PROCESSION - PAINTING - 11

 

This Painting has been known as the best painting in the Kerala tradition of temple festivities. Here a male elephant walks ahead in front of the Dravidian style temple of South India. 

Here the mahot is absent ,however a golden nose ornament (of elephant) carrier of the elephant is present as in modern Kerala temple processions. Here I am indicating an unknown fact from the shadow of the elephant (in sunshine).The elephant is truly unaware of the surroundings which is vacant ,devoid of rush, and hence the trunk touches the ground.

Now we can see that the time is around afternoon from the sunshine and shadow formation. Elephant is in need of water as indicated by the trunk touching the ground. This position has been described as the Royal elephant pose among the elephants with high degree of intelligence.This elephant is classified as Heavenly type as per Gaja lakshana .

This elephant procession has been called as "Ulsavam" in Malayalam language,after which the royal bath known as "Araattu" happens in riverbed. The above procession has been called as Kerala temple elephant procession .However ,here the mahot doesn't present himself in front of the crowd. 

This shows that the elephant is pretty well behaved and its sexual prowness is well under control.The elephant is seen as deeply disturbed by the clouds in the sky as per the megha shastra science. This further indicates enemies following the procession in an unknown way to the crowd

This has been known as the worst case of temple practices as per megha lakshana. The final verdict is that the elephant misses its female friend which has been depicted as 'black cow' cloud form in the sky.This is resulting in elephant becoming thirsty and in need of river bath .However ,there are instances where elephant controls himself by calm surroundings of rush free crowd. 

The modern science of elephant raising has been described in the malayalam classic book 'Matanga leela' by kumaran ashan. The front leg of the elephant shows shadowy skin due to leg disease from mind imbalance.
