Frank Lloyd Wright, a famous American Architect wrote "Architecture is that great living creative spirit which from generation to generation, from age to age, proceeds, persists, creates, according to the nature of man, and his circumstances as they change. That is really architecture. As one of the oldest civilisations in existence, our nation proudly flaunts its wonderful temples and historic monuments. It is matter of great pride that our country houses architectural marvels from centuries ago. Basically temples can be considered as a contact between man and God. The msot wonderful part is that the rituals and ceremonies performed carried in the temples can be scientifically related to the temple architecture. Its amazing that even centuries ago our architecture was so much developed. Temples built thousands of year ago have a design based on sacred geometric diagrams (Mandala) -- symbolized as a miniscule image of the universe with its coordinated organized structure Tamil Nadu is well known for its magnificient temples and is populary known as 'land of temples' for its grand temples that are architectural masterpieces.

In this article, Intuitionistic Triangular Neutrosophic Fuzzy Graph of Shortest Path Problem was Inaugurated, which is drew on triangular numbers and Intuitionistic Neutrosophic Fuzzy Graph. Real-world application is given as an illustrative model for Intuitionistic Triangular Neutrosophic Fuzzy Graph. Here we introduced famous chola period temples. These types of temples builted in various king of cholas. Here we assume only seven types of temples as vertices of Intuitionistic Triangular Neutrosophic Fuzzy Graph. Use of fuzzification method, edge weights of this Graph was calculated. Score function of Intuitionistic Triangular Neutrosophic Fuzzy Graph is inaugurated, with the help of this score function in the proposed algorithm, shortest way is determined.. This present Chola period temples Shortest Path Problem. Obtained shortest path is verified through Dijkstra’s Algorithm with the help of Python Jupyter Notebook (adaptation) programming.

This concise book portrays the vignettes of what I call ‘A Remarkable Political Movement’. It draws upon my experiences in social and political activism. This remarkable movement; anchored to Indian view of nationalism; captivated my imagination. Subsequently; it became the preoccupation of my life. While still young; I came across an extraordinary letter written by Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay to his maternal uncle. The letter succinctly explains why the ideologue of Jana Sangh wanted to dedicate his life for the cause of the nation. Pt. Upadhyay says; “Any individual may achieve a very high degree of progress; but that has no significance unless his motherland too; registers corresponding progress.... We are nowadays interested only in reaping the harvest and have forgotten to provide the field with manure. Can we not forego a few worthless ambitions for the protection and benefit of our own people?” The letter turned a refreshing chapter in my life. It was an exposition that ‘giving’ makes one nobler than ‘taking’. It was in 1951 that Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee launched the Bharatiya Jana Sangh. The BJP is continuing the work of the Jana Sangh with a missionary zeal to make Bharat the greatest country in the world. The book also contains some articles on India’s rich cultural; spiritual and literary life.
