Thillai Nataraja Temple, also referred as the Chidambaram Nataraja Temple, is a Hindu temple dedicated to Nataraja, the form of Shiva as the lord of dance. This temple is located in Chidambaram, Tamil Nadu, India. This temple has ancient roots and a Shiva shrine existed at the site when the town was known as Thillai. Chidambaram, the name of the city literally means "stage of consciousness". The temple architecture symbolizes the connection between the arts and spirituality, creative activity and the divine. The temple wall carvings display all the 108 karanas from the Natya Shastra by Bharata Muni, and these postures form a foundation of Bharatanatyam, an Indian classical dance.

  • Der Nataraja-Tempel (auch Sabhanayaka-Tempel) ist ein Hindu-Tempel in der Stadt Chidambaram im südindischen Bundesstaat Tamil Nadu. Er ist Nataraja, einer Erscheinungsform des Gottes Shiva, geweiht. Als Ort, an welchem dem Mythos zufolge Shiva als „König des Tanzes“ seinen kosmischen Tanz vollführt haben soll, gehört der Nataraja-Tempel zu den wichtigsten shivaitischen Heiligtümern Indiens. Chidambaram scheint bereits früh ein religiöses Zentrum gewesen zu sein und wird ab dem 7. Jahrhundert in der Dichtung erwähnt. In seiner heutigen Form stammt der Nataraja-Tempel im Wesentlichen aus der Spätzeit der Chola-Dynastie (11.–13. Jahrhundert) mit einigen Zusätzen aus der Pandya- und Vijayanagar-Zeit (13.–16. Jahrhundert). (de)
