ARUNACHALA: The Mountain (1186 words) |
 | The mountain itself, a cone standing alone in the midst of the plain, appears on the boundary-slabs of lands dedicated to the Deity of Tiruvannamalai, in the form of a triangle covered with semi-circular incisions, set either above the dynastic emblem of gandabherunda the two-headed bird, or above the vase of plenty. |
| At first the opposition between the top and the bottom of the mountain seems to be absent, since there is not, as at certain sites a temple at the bottom for the deity with his consort, and a temple at the top for the deity in his yogic aspect. |
| The route of 14 kilometers around the mountain and centered on its vertical axis, is oriented to the cardinal points by the distribution of shrines consecrated to the lingas of the directions. |
| Holy Mountain Discography (3433 words) |
| Holy Mountain is beside itself with the limited edition reissue of Dust and Chimes by Six Organs of Admittance, Ben Chasny's second amazing, underground folk-psych project from behind California's Redwood curtain. |
| Holy Mountain released the first LP by Steven Wray Lobdell's Davis Redford Triad in the spring of 1997, following Lobdell's release from a mental institution and return to playing the guitar. |
| In addition, Holy Mountain is also pleased to announce an East Coast tour by the band to coincide with the reissue of this remarkable album. |
