Similarly, the Kashmiri word tomul (rice) preserves the initial ‘t’ of the Sanskrit tanḍula.

In most other Indo-Aryan languages, this initial sound shifted to ‘ch’ as seen in Hindi chāwal, Bengali and Oriya chāul, Sindhi chāur and Nepali chāmal.

Take the word krāl (potter) in Kashmiri language. In almost all Modern Indo-Aryan languages except Nepali and Sinhalese the term for potter derives from the Sanskrit kumbhakāra.

Kashmiri, however, stands apart. It retains the older Vedic word 'kulāl'.

Such panels are commonly used in Jain temples and sacred spaces beside Tirthankar idols for their protective and auspicious significance.

This handcrafted brass or copper repoussé panel, likely inspired by traditional Indian folk art styles such as Pichwai, showcases the Eight Auspicious Symbols (Ashtamangala) from the Svetambara Jain tradition—

The technique involves hammering the metal from the reverse side to create raised relief, with an elaborate central tree at the top adorned by peacocks plucking its fruits, flanked by ornate floral vines below.

Today I got the opportunity to visit the wonderfully curated exhibition ‘Buddha - The Light and the Lotus: Relics of the Awakened One’ at the Raipithora Cultural Complex.
For the first time in history, the reunited Piprahwa gem relics are being displayed in the country through this exhibit.
Was heartening to see lots of people taking keen interest and visiting the exhibition.
India’s cultural and civilisational legacy is its biggest power and strength. Would urge people to definitely visit it. Thank you @shahfaesal and team for the detailed tour.
