The Sacred Map
Begin with where each place is. Filter the checked geographic layer by region and tradition, choose a point and open its coordinates in a full map. The associated research pathways keep map facts, textual claims and living practice in separate labelled layers, so a coordinate is never presented as proof of significance.
This is a coordinate locator, not a road or walking map. Pin positions are calculated from latitude and longitude within the labelled bounds.

Geography and research pathways are both live
The map publishes checked names, regional grouping, tradition lenses and rounded coordinates. Editorial place lessons then require the learner to identify a source, distinguish tradition from geography, record current local guidance and mark uncertainty. They are research editions for review, not attributed commentary.
Place selection follows the Government of India's documented pilgrimage-development lists and official heritage records. Rounded coordinate checks use OpenStreetMap, the Ministry of Tourism PRASHAD site list and the UNESCO Temples of Kanchipuram record. Coordinates are rounded and are not navigation instructions.
