Sri Krishna killed Kamsa (his maternal uncle) and made Ugrasen (his maternal grandfather) the king of Mathura. Enraged, the father-in-law of Kamsa, Jarasandha (king of Magadha) with his friend Kalayavan attacked Mathura 17 times. For the safety of the people, Krishna and Yadavas decided to move t ...

| | | | | Holy Place: Encyclopedia II - Holiness - Holiness in Protestantism In Protestantism, especially in American branches of Protestantism of the more Pentecostal variety, holiness has acquired the secondary meaning of the reshaping of a person through spiritual rebirth. This process is described in the Bible, in Paul's Epistle to the Romans, chapter 6, verses 19-22, among other places. The term owes its origin to John Wesley's concept of "scriptural holiness" or Christian perfection.
The Holiness movement began within Methodism in the United States, among those who thought the church had lost the ...

Holy Spirit - Pentecostalism.
The Christian movement called Pentecostalism derives its name from the event of Pentecost, the coming of the Holy Spirit when Jesus' disciples were gathered in Jerusalem.
The Pentecostal movement places special emphasis on the work of the Holy Spirit, and especially on the gifts mentioned above, believing that they are still given today. Many Pentecostals believe in a 'Baptism of the Holy Spirit', in which the Spirit's power is received by the Christian in a new way. In this the Christian can now be ...

| | | | | Holy Place: Encyclopedia II - Holy water - Eastern Orthodox holy water Holy water is used in Orthodox rites of blessing and exorcism, and is the water normally used for baptisms.
A quantity of holy water is typically kept in a small font placed near the entrance of the church where it is available for anyone who needs it. Orthodox Christians most often bless themselves with holy water by drinking it, and they normally keep some at home for this purpose. Holy water is also sometimes sprinkled on items or people when they are blessed, as part of the prayers of blessing. For instance, in Alaska, the fishing boats are sprinkled with holy water at the start of the fishing sea ...

In denying the legitimacy of the present Pope, sedevacantists also deny the authority of the decrees that he, and the Holy See in general, issue. If a sedevacantist group is headed by someone whom they call the true Pope, they may apply the term "Holy See" to their own group or part of it, instead of using it as ordinarily understood.

| | | | | Holy Place: Encyclopedia II - Ayyavazhi - The Utopian Formula Ayyavazhi proposes an emancipatory utopia under the banner of Dharma Yukam. The core of the proposal was that Ayya Vaikundar had come to establish and rule over the Dharma Yukam in the place of Kali Yukam by sentencing Kroni to hell by the final judgement to him. Since the concept of Dharma comes as a lynchpin around which the grand concept of Dharma Yukam revolves, an understanding of the latter needs to start with that of the former. The Dharma was taught 'to uplift the poor' and the result of that will be the Dharma Yukam. The preachings of Vaikundar and the ritual practices enunciated by ...

| | | | | Holy Place: Encyclopedia II - Ayyavazhi - New religious phenomenon It may be concluded that Ayyavazhi emerged as a 'new and singular' religious phenomenon. Amidst the various traditions — the sanskritic Hinduism, the newly-introduced Christianity, the not-so-prominent Islam, and the ubiquitous folk forms of worship — Ayyavazhi was developing as a distinctively alternative religio-cultural form in South India, its place of origin.
This fact had been recognized by the followers of Ayyavazhi. They addressed their religion with a new nomenclature, "Ayya Vazhi" ("the path or way of Ayya") and thereby ...

| | | | | Holy Place: Encyclopedia II - Ayyavazhi - Beliefs Adherents of Ayyavazhi believe in both reincarnation and the Dharma Yukam but condemn the caste system . They also reject the use of murti in worship, but Ayya Vaikundar recognized the human need for an image to focus on and introduced a non-anthropomorphic symbol (see Nizhal Thangal).
This practice is similar to that of other Hindu sects that use non-anthropomorphic symbols. Shaivism, for example, uses the linga as the symbol of God, while Vaishnavism uses the saligrama. Similarly, in Ayyavazhi, the Elunetru, which is placed i ...
