You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 100.27.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 11:06, 19 October 2026. Your current IP address is 100.27.44.182.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Siddhagiri Gramjivan Museum (Kaneri Math)''' at Kaneri, [[Kolhapur   district]], [[Maharashtra]], is a sculpture museum. The full name is '''Siddhagiri Gramjivan (Village life) Museum'''. It is situated at [[Kaadsiddheshwar#Siddhagiri Math (Kaneri Math)|Shri Kshetra Siddhagiri Math]], a campus built around the Moola-Kaadsiddheswar [[Shiva]] temple.<ref>[http://www.kolhapurtourism.org/kolhapur-siddhagiri-meseum.php Siddhagiri Gramjivan Museum]((webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130331072454/http://www.kolhapurtourism.org/kolhapur-siddhagiri-meseum.php |date=31 March 2013 |accessdate=21 December 2016))</ref>

==Museum description==
This museum showcases different aspects of ''Gramjivan'' (village life). ''Gram'' means ''village'' and ''jeevan'' means ''life'' in the [[Marathi language]]. This initiative was the dream of [[Mahatma Gandhi]], and was created through the vision and efforts of Siddhagiri Gurukul Foundation co. The history of self-sufficient village life in Maharshtra, before the invasion of the [[Mughal Empire|Mughals]], is depicted in the form of cement sculptures. Each sculpture is lifelike and represents activities performed in daily village life. There were 12 [[Bara Balutedar|Balutedars]] (essentially artisan castes), and 18 Alutedars who provided equipment to carry out domestic and professional tasks.

The museum is spread over ((convert|7|acre|m2)), and the surrounding countryside is beautiful, with lush greenery. Every aspect of village life has been depicted in almost 80 scenes that showcase more than 300 statues.

==Village scenes==
The scenes of village life include:
* Village priest’s abode. The first scene is the house of a highly educated village priest. He performs his duties, rites and rituals like weddings and thread ceremonies, and is tasked to find auspicious days and times for any major activity such as house-building and house-warming activities, digging wells, sowing seeds, piercing nose or ears. He earns his livelihood from ''[[Dakshina]]'' (donations) he receives. He consults the ''Panchaang'' (almanac) for finding auspicious dates.
* Goldsmith at work
* Ironsmith shoeing a bullock
* Barber shop
* Village well - villagers fetching water from the public well.
* Nursing an elder family member
* Grocer’s shop - a woman visiting the grocery shop with her son. The shop-keeper is weighing items in an old weighing machine. Items like jaggery, sugar, chillies, salt, wheat, and rice are stocked. The son is asking his mother to buy kites for him.
* Farmer’s ''[[Wada (house)|wada]]'' (house)
* House of ''[[Vaidya]]''
* Grandma stitching a ''godhadi'' (quilt)
* Farmers ploughing his farm using a bullock-drawn plow
* Shepherd boy with his herd of sheep
* Villagers performing [[Bhajan]] and [[Kirtan]] (singing Hindu devotional songs)

==Shiva temple==
The museum has an old [[Shiva]] temple on the grounds.<ref>((cite web|url=http://kolhapur.nic.in/Htmldocs/kanerimath.htm | title=Kaneri Math | publisher=kolhapur.nic.in | accessdate=7 October 2018 |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20160303231605/http://kolhapur.nic.in/Htmldocs/kanerimath.htm |archivedate=2016-03-03 |url-status=dead))</ref> It is related to the [[Inchegeri Sampradaya]], to which [[Nisargadatta Maharaj]] belongs. It is believed that a [[Shivling]] was installed by a [[Lingayatism|Lingayat Priest]] on a beautiful hill in the 14th century. About 500 years ago, a Lingayat Priest, Shree Kadsiddheshwar Maharaj, developed and renovated it, and hence the place is now known by his name. The temple includes a ((convert|125|ft|m))-deep well, a ((convert|42|ft|m)) Shiva idol, and a large [[Nandi bull]].<ref>((cite web |url=http://www.kolhapuronline.in/city-guide/siddhagiri-gramjivan-museum |title=Siddhagiri Gramjivan Museum in Kolhapur, Kanheri Mutt in Kolhapur |website=Kolhapuronline.in |accessdate=21 December 2016))</ref><ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20141129025336/http://www.touristsafari.com/museums/siddhagiri-gramjivan-museum-kaneri-math Siddhagiri Gramjivan Museum (Kaneri Math)]</ref>
