Hugh Newman became a New Human in India! We examine the megalithic mystery of Mandagapattu temple. A strange cave temple built 1400 years ago, has some impossible features. Is this even humanly possible? What is a negative construction technique? What is the specialty of ’Tamil Rock Cutting Technology’?

Mandagapattu is a unique site, it uses a negative construction technique. Now, what do I mean by that? If you are building a house, or a temple or whatever, what would you do? You would start with nothing, and you build the structure by adding materials to it. This is what everybody does, right? But Mandagapattu temple was created using the opposite technique. It was created by literally removing the existing material. They have not added a single thing to this temple, the entire structure was created by scooping out the existing rock material.
So this is an extraordinary construction technique, especially because this was envisioned about 1400 years ago. This is not what I am claiming, this is the conservative estimate made by archeologists and historians and they are saying this was one of the very first sites in India created with this rock cutting technique. Some claim that this is the oldest monolithic temple in South India, and some say Badami Caves in Karnataka was built before it, but we are looking at a turning point in ancient Indian architecture.
But this site is extraordinary and it has strong evidence. An inscription carved in stone, 1400 years ago. Can you read this Hugh? Even Indians cannot read this, because this script is now extinct. Unless you studied epigraphy here, you won’t know what it says. Let me read this:
“Ethath Anishtakam Adrumamalo hama sudham Vichithra Thithena Nirmarpitham Nrupena Brahmeshwara Vishnu Lakshithayanam. “ It says this structure was built without bricks, wood or timber, metal or any binding materials. And the temple’s name was Lakshithaayanam dedicated to Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. Here is the key word: This was built by Vichitrachithan which was another name of King Mahendravarman who lived 1400 year ago.
But do you see the problem here? He has mentioned that this temple was dedicated to Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. But where are the statues of these Gods? Why are these chambers empty? Are they invisible? Look they have only carved a hole, and there is no lingam or cylinder inserted here. You cannot argue that there was a lingam present here and was later destroyed. Because there is no sign of destruction. You see my point?
So, if the architect created the entire temple without adding any other material, even the deities of the Gods should have been made from the original rock. For example in Kailasa temple, you can see the lingam carved, but it is a part of the bedrock itself. He should have done the same here, but we cannot see these statues. So, where are the Gods mentioned in the inscription? If we argue that they were added externally, for exampleif he made idols out of wood or metal and installed them here, again it goes against the inscription. Because he explicitly says no materials were added to create this entire temple.
But you know what’s crazier? Here take a look. These slots. You see these tool marks? For what? Doors. That’s right? Doors! Now, if the inscription is in fact true, if it was 100 percent made of this monolithic rock only, we should not see these slots, right? Because you cannot add wood or metal doors, that’s what the inscription says.
Now, I have failed to tell you something really important. There is another unique feature about this temple. Where are we right now? Are we at the ground level? Or are we at the Top? Neither right? Let’s go back outside, and I will show you why Mandagapattu should be recognized as a world wonder, right? Think about this, these steps are all new, made in the last 50 years or so, these are not monolithic, these are separate stone slabs added for convenience in recent times. This is the ground level, right?
