not chanted. Rig Veda in terms of sanctity and liturgical importance is an ancient Indian sacred

ARTS WEEK 1
Introducing the Arts of South Asia
ARTS of SOUTH ASIA

A. Indus Civilization Art

Little art survives from the Indus

civilization; most is small sculpture.
Perhaps the most famous aesthetic
remnants of the Indus civilization are
soapstone seals.

The two largest settlements

of the Indus civilization were
Mohenjo-Daro and Harappa.
While the ruins of these cities are
renowned for their carefully-
planned layouts, little survives of
their buildings. Ruins of Mohenjo Daro
B. Buddhist Architecture
India gave rise to three major religions: Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism. During the first half
of the Indian kingdom age (ca. 500 BC-1200 AD), Buddhism and Hinduism vied for religious
 dominance of India. Buddhism then fell into decline, leaving Hinduism the dominant faith of India by
far (which remains today). Meanwhile, Jainism has always flourished as a significant minority religion.

Most surviving architecture of the

Indian kingdom age is religious in nature.
Remarkably, many of these structures are
rock-cut architecture (they were carved out
of solid natural rock).

The Ajanta Caves are

approximately 30 rock-
cut Buddhist cave
monuments famous for
its mural paintings.

Paintings in the Ajanta Caves

C. Indian Sculptures
Sculpture is considered the primary traditional art
form of South Asia. The predominant subject of South
Asian sculpture is the human figure. In addition to
architectural carvings, South Asian sculptors produced
Shiva, the
many free-standing statues, primarily in stone (but also
Cosmic-dancer
bronze).
D. Indo-Islamic Art
With the rise of Islamic states as the dominant powers of South Asia, Indian art was subjected
to Islamic influence. The most brilliant manifestations could be seen in their architecture.
The primary form of Indo-Islamic architecture is the mosque. The exterior of an Indo-Islamic
mosque is often rich with sculpture, such that it resembles the exterior of a Hindu temple. Moreover,
the towers and domes of an Indo-Islamic mosque are often clearly based on the towers of Hindu
temples or the domes of Buddhist stupas.
The masterpiece of Indo-Islamic architecture is the Taj Mahal, a mausoleum with a mosque
design constructed from dazzling white marble. The mausoleum contrasts sharply with the smaller
flanking buildings, made primarily of red sandstone.

E. Diwali

Diwali, or Dipawali, (Festival of Lights) is India's biggest and most important holiday of the year.
The festival gets its name from the row (avali) of clay lamps (deepa/diya) that Indians light outside their
homes to symbolize the inner light that protects them from spiritual darkness.
 Hindus interpret the Diwali story based upon
where they live. But there's one common theme no
matter where people celebrate: the victory of good
over evil.

diyas

Diwali is celebrated for

three to five days. Aside from clay
lamps, people also decorate their
homes with patterns called
Rangoli on the floor using
colored powders or sand.
Rangoli
On the main day of the festival, families gather together for
Lakshmi Puja, a prayer to Goddess Lakshmi, followed by mouth-watering
feasts and firework festivities.

F. TRUCK ART
Truck art is a popular form of regional decoration in South Asia, with Pakistani and Indian
trucks featuring elaborate floral patterns and calligraphy.
Many trucks and buses are highly customized and decorated by
their owners. The decoration often contains elements that remind
the truck drivers of home. The art is a mode of expression for the
truck drivers. Decoration may include structural changes,
paintings, calligraphy and ornamental-decor like mirror work on
the front and back of vehicles and wooden carvings on the truck
doors. Depictions of various historical scenes and poetic verses
are also common.

Lesson 1
“Stages of Infection, Leading Causes of Morbidity and Mortality in the Philippines “

Definition of Terminologies
 Communicable or infectious disease- is any illness that you can “catch” or can be passed from one
person to another. An illness due to a specific infectious agent or its toxic products capable of being
directly or indirectly transmitted from man to man, animal to man or from the environment (air, dust,
soil, water, food).
 Infection- an invasion of microorganisms into the body that are capable of producing a disease.
 Contact or mode of transmission- is the most common form of transmitting diseases and virus.
There are “two types of contact or mode of transmission: direct and indirect”.
 Direct contact transmission- occurs when there is physical contact between an infected person and
a susceptible person.
 Indirect contact transmission- occurs when there is no direct human-to-human contact. Contact
occurs from a reservoir to contaminated surfaces or objects, or to vectors such as mosquitoes, flies,
mites, fleas, ticks, rodents or dogs.
 Chain of infection- more specifically, transmission occurs when the agent leaves its reservoir or host
through a portal of exit, is conveyed by some mode of transmission, and enters through an
appropriate portal of entry to infect a susceptible host.
Chain of Infection
There are six links in the chain of infection:
1. Pathogen- it is an organism with the ability to cause disease
2. Reservoir- it is a place within which microorganisms can thrive and produce.
3. Portal of exit- it provides a way for a microorganism to leave the reservoir.
4. Mode of transmission- it is the method by which the organism moves from one host to another.
5. Portal of entry- it is an opening allowing the microorganism to enter the host.
6. The susceptible host- it is a person who cannot resists a microorganism invading its body
Stages of infection:
There are 4 stages of infection.
1. Incubation stage- it is when a person acquires the pathogen until the appearance of the first sign.
(silent stage)
2. Prodromal stage- it is when there are non-specific signs and symptoms appearing. (headache,
runny nose, slight fever)
 3. Illness or clinical stage- it is the time when illness reaches its highest point of development. (severe
ache, vomiting, high fever, sore throat, sinus congestion)
4. Recovery or convalescence stage- this is the time when recovery seems complete although the
disease is still communicable. (pathogen has mostly eliminated)

A. Direction: Using the graphic organizer below, write your own discussion regarding the
four (4) stages of infection. Do this on your answer sheet.
