Temple in Tamil as Koyil and Ko means King Yil means home/dwelling place so so Koyil means home/dwelling place of King and the main duty of king is protection of his People so King means Protector thats why Tamils worship their Gods as Kings means Protector

I don't think there is a name called "Dravidian" in Indian scriptures.
It is actually called "AGAMA SASTRAS"

[@dilipnchaturvedichaturvedi9693]

Really well explained sir👍

[@Jojo-rl8qm]

Tysm sir😊😊😊😊

[@mohitsperspective9748]

Thanks

[@pm4306]

Hello sir--this is a good attempt so your effort is appreciated. If you are open i would like to point out that you should provide correct information--if correct information is not available then mention that correct information is not available and we are making a guess--this is important cause you are providing coaching class/sessions for UPSC.
Refer to Atharva vedas, and Agama Literature--where temple construction-styles, reasons, types, geometric layers, patterns, 3dimensional modeling, etc are described in great detail...nature worship, diety worship, person worship has been existing throught the world from time immemorial but only in vedic civilization these achievements peaked to create such lieterture and in physical form as proof--Grand Magnificient temples which have stood the test of time---but all is based on deeper vedic philosophies. Iam sure you can do more and deeper research into Temple Construction related information from our own cultural sources, plus all modern scientific dating, archeological, and reason for such elaborate construction without modern tools and techniques.

[@hemantparihar803]

beautifully explained ❤

[@ANUJKUMAR-sb1rr]

अभी भारत में लगभग 10 लाख छोटे बड़े मंदिर है 🚩 और अगर बात करें कयर मुगलों द्वारा तोड़े गए 4 लाख प्राचीन मंदिर तो यह संख्या कितनी होती और एक से बढ़कर एक प्राचीन मंदिरों को देख पाते 😍
जय श्री राम 🙏🚩 हर हर महादेव 🙏🚩

[@saiadarshpanda9448]

One fact that is very crucial and you had missed i don’t know why you missed but people from indus valley were too stone worshipers like Us
Archaeologists have discovered symbols and artwork that depicts a great father and mother figure that may have been their principal gods. These gods bear a resemblance to the Hindu gods Rudra and Shiva

[@lokeshmeenaindia]

Jay Shree Ram ji अखंड भारत🇮🇳👳
