Search Results - Temple

Type in a word or phrase to search, you can also type in Article ID's separated by commas:

A temple (from the Latin word templum) is a structure reserved for religious or spiritual activities, such as prayer and sacrifice, or analogous rites. A ‘’templum’’ constituted a sacred precinct as defined by a priest, or augur. It has the same root as the word “ template,’’ a plan in preparation of the building that was marked out on the ground by the augur. Though a templum[citation needed], technically speaking, is not a “house of the gods” but a diagram that for the Romans linked the geometries of heaven and earth, it was also indicative of a dwelling place of a god or gods. This tradition dates back to prehistoric times.[citation needed] For the ancient Egyptians, the word pr could refer not only to a house, but also to a sacred structure since it was believed that the gods resided in houses.[1] The word ‘temple’ (which dates to about the 6th century BCE[citation needed]), despite the specific set of meanings associated with the religion of the ancient Rome, has now become quite widely used to describe a house of worship for any number of religions and is even used for time periods prior to the Romans.

The oldest known temple seems to be that found at Göbekli Tepe in southeastern Turkey, dating from the 10th millennium BC.

In Judaism, the ancient Hebrew texts refer not to temples, the word having not existed yet, but to a "sanctuary", "palace" or "hall". Each of the two ancient Temples in Jerusalem was called Beit Hamikdash, which translates literally as "the Holy House".

The Temple Mount in Jerusalem is the site where the First Temple of Solomon and the Second Temple were built. At the center of the structure was the Holy of Holies where only the high priest could enter. The Temple Mount is now the site of the Islamic shrine, the Dome of the Rock (c. 690).

2. Omnislash Disc 1 - Cloud's Final Limit of Final Fantasy 7
November 10, 2008

Omnislash in Disc 1 is easiest to earn right after the Temple of the Ancients. I would recommend using Cloud for the Battle Arena since he is overall the best character between stats, weapons, and limits. Make sure to equip the Nail Bat and Ribbon on him. Note that the Nail Bat does not possess any Materia slots. Next equip Cloud with an Armor with the most Materia slots possible without losing Defense or Magic Defense. Cloud will now possess average-high Attacks, well rounded Defense/Magic Defense, and immunity to basically all status ailments (thanks to the Ribbon). Having his Level 3 L... (read more)

November 07, 2008

(Copyrighted) 10/20/08 Before I being telling you a very small portion of my recent incidents, allow me to share my belief. I am not a religious person, although I attend churches, temple and used to go to mosques (years ago). However, I believe in God. Everyday, my trust in Him increases. In simple words, there is not a day that I loudly do not announce, “God I Love you and my life is yours.” “God you gave me life and my existence. Every breath that I take, every move that I make, everything that I eat or drink and so much more, is either because you allow me to do so, you provide... (read more)

6. Tiger Cave Temple, Krabi
November 03, 2008

Krabi's Tiger Cave Temple At the 300th step I’m panting. It doesn’t help that some of the steps are so high I have to raise my knees into the air like a polevaulter. The high temperature and humidity add to the fun on my slog to the top of Tiger Cave Temple (Wat Thumsua) in Krabi, Southern Thailand’s so-called 'enchanted province'. I drink lots of water, grip the hand rail and, as gibbons weave past me, heave myself up the staircase built into a very steep wooded valley surrounded by cliffs. I’m beginning to have doubts about whether I will reach the top, take some pictures an... (read more)

8. Temple vs. Ohio
October 22, 2008

Owls -3 vs. Bobcats The absence of a World Series game tonight has opened the door for a rare Tuesday night college football showdown tonight in baseball-mad Philadelphia. Two struggling teams from the Mid-American Conference meet at Lincoln Financial Field tonight as the Ohio Bobcats travel east to take own their conference rival Temple Owls. Ohio (2-5, 1-2) looks to continue their season turnaround as they attempt to win their third game in four tries.

9. Hair Straighteners: Getting Straight to the Point
October 20, 2008

With so many innovations in technology in this day and age, many of us take things for granted. In terms of beauty, for some women it could be their simple easy-fix solution may well be the lip plumping lip gloss for that immediate pout; or that lash extending mascara for the doe-eyed look that is their ultimate beauty fix. For others it could be hair straighteners to achieve the ‘frizz to sleek’ look in a matter of seconds. However, women have long had a love-hate relationship with curls for many years – if you’ve got them you don’t want them, whereas if your hair is poker straight you’d... (read more)

Purple is the colour of Thailand Smelling the sweet fragrances of all things Thai; the orchids, the flowers and the subtle smells of incenses that smoulder from the Buddhist temples whilst self-indulging the sounds of those temple bells that chime to an ever degree of melancholy. I realized why the colour of Thailand must be purple. Purple delights in all flavours of attitude and existence, like my own existence; it holds the power to everything yet the power of nothing. A spiritual enlightenment-that will seek only those who seek it. So there I was on that late afternoon in Bangkok. I,... (read more)
