This lecture class are about Sacred and Profane. They seem very hard to understand and explain. I think I understand the word "Sacred" but I don't understand the word "Profane".
First, I will talk about the word "Sacred". I think about temple and something that people use for worship when I hear the word sacred. It gives us sense of holy. I mean something that very higher value than human. In fact, the sacred is from human beliefs. Mostly the sacred is for the god and and human who used to make a lot of profit to people such as every king in the past. Because of that value, the sacred should not be disparaged.

Next is about "Profane". The meaning of profane is difference form sacred. I think profane is equal with disparage [profane=disparage]. But how do we know what action is the profane.
Such as the Mandarin Racha Devi hotel at Chiang Mai. They use the temple appearance to be hotel so, this are profane and disparage the holy sense of the temple? In my opinion, It's not profane. They just want to use the aesthetic of the sacred for people. At this point, those people are not god and kings who made profit for other people so, this action is not suit for hotel. I think it depend on purpose and intention of people that can tell us what is sacred and what is profane but there are factors that are polite and respect to consider so, this topic very difficult and make me very confusing.
