  • Als Jagati werden in der indischen Architektur die erhöht liegenden Plattformen bezeichnet, auf denen die meisten Tempel im Norden Indiens und später alle bedeutenden Grabbauten der Mogulzeit aufruhen. Die Plattformen buddhistischer Stupas werden hingegen zumeist medhi genannt. (de)
  • Jagati bat hindu edo budisten tenpluak eraikitzeko lurraz gainetik igotako gainazal bat da, plataforma edo terraza eran. Egitura hau tenplu isolatuetan ikusten da, adibidez Khajurahokoan, eta ez da arrunta harresiak dituzten tenpluetan. Jagatia gainean eraikitzen da, bere altuera osoari gehitzen zaiona. Adhiṣṭhānaren alboak normalki eskultura askorekin dekoratzen dira. Jagatiaren inguruan zirkunbalazioak egiten dira, hau da, tenpluaren inguruan erromesen ibilaldiak. Tenplu oso handietan zirkunbalazio hau posible da tenplu barruan dagoen paretan, izenekoa. (eu)
  • In Hindu temple architecture, the jagati is the raised surface of the platform or terrace upon which some Buddhist or Hindu temples are built. This feature is one of the five features that can be seen in temples of the Hoysalas. This feature is seen in temples such as the temples of Khajuraho. It is often not seen in temples enclosed by walls. The jagati lies on a platform or base called adhiṣṭhāna (among other terms from various languages) which adds to its height. The sides of the adhishthana are often ornamented with relief sculptures, or deep-cut mouldings. In English this may be called by terms from Western Greco-Roman classical architecture including base, plinth and socle. Not all adhisthana lead to a jagati platform; some just follow the walls of the temple buildings, except where there are steps up to the floor level of the temple. The jagati also allows for ritual circumambulation, i.e. the walking of devotees around the shrine, which is important in both Buddhism and Hinduism. In some large temples, this circumambulation is also possible inside the temple along a walled passage around the shrine sanctum named pradakshina. (en)
  • Une Jagati (IAST jagatī, la terre) est une plateforme sur laquelle certains temples hindouistes sont construits . Il s'agit de temples souvent isolés qui se séparent par leur hauteur (à l'inverse de ceux situés à l'intérieur d'enceintes) La jagati repose sur une base appelée Adhishthana (IAST adhiṣṭhāna) qui augmente cette impression de hauteur . Les côtés de l'adhisthana sont parfois couverts de sculptures. La jagati permet aussi la circumambulation (Pradakshina), c'est-à-dire la circulation des fidèles tournant autour du sanctuaire dans le sens des aiguilles d'une montre . Dans certains temples de grandes dimensions, cette circumambulation (IAST pradakṣiṇā) peut aussi être pratiquée dans un couloir entourant le cœur du sanctuaire. Un temple permettant la circumambulation intérieure est appelé sāndhāra (ceux où cela est impossible sont appelés nirandhāra). (fr)
