Book Synopsis काण्वशतपथब्राह्मणम् by : Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts
Download or read book काण्वशतपथब्राह्मणम् written by Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publ.. This book was released on 1994 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book on Gupta Polity is a companion volume to the author`s earlier work The Mauryan Polity. The sources of information for a study of the subject are not as many as in the case of the later book. The author firmly believes that Kalidasa was not a protege of the Gupta Court but lived in second century b.c. and so his prolific works cannot be taken to throw any light on the Gupta empire. One has therefore to depend mainly on the Kamandakiya Nitisastra, the inscriptions and coins of the Gupta rulers and the accounts of the Chinese traveller Fa-hien for a knowledge of the Gupta Polity.

Download or read book Venom written by Brendan James Murray and published by Bonnier Zaffre Ltd.. This book was released on 2017-09-01 with total page 507 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early years of the twentieth century, an awareness was growing among European Australians of an unexpected threat, one that seemed the very embodiment of the dark, ominous power of the Australian bush. To the Indigenous people of the Guugu Yimithirr nation, it was nguman; to the whites it was the taipan, an eight foot, lightning fast venomous snake whose bite meant certain death. Venom is an examination of European settlers' troubled and often antagonistic relationship with the land, seen through the lens of the desperate scramble for an antivenom, and highlighted by the story of George Rosendale, a taipan bite victim of the Guugu Yimithirr nation.
Book Synopsis The Body of God by : D Dennis Hudson
Download or read book The Body of God written by D Dennis Hudson and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2008-09-25 with total page 608 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the crowning achievement of the remarkable scholar D. Dennis Hudson, bringing together the results of a lifetime of interdisciplinary study of south Indian Hinduism. The book is a finely detailed examination of a virtually unstudied Tamil Hindu temple, the Vaikuntha Perumal (ca. 770 C.E.). Hudson offers a sustained reading of the temple as a coherent, organized, minutely conceptualized mandala. Its iconography and structure can be understood in the light of a ten-stanza poem by the Alvar poet Tirumangai, and of the Bhagavata Purana and other major religious texts, even as it in turn illuminates the meanings of those texts. Hudson takes the reader step by step on a tour of the temple, telling the stories suggested by each of the 56 sculpted panels and showing how their relationship to one another brings out layers of meaning. He correlates the stories with stages in the spiritual growth of the king through the complex rituals that formed a crucial dimension of the religion. The result is a tapestry of interpretation that brings to life the richness of spiritual understanding embodied in the temple. Hudson's underlying assumption is that the temple itself constitutes a summa theologica for the Pancharatra doctrines in the Bhagavata tradition centered on Krishna as it had developed through the eighth century. This tradition was already ancient and had spread widely across South Asia and into Southeast Asia. By interweaving history with artistic, liturgical, and textual interpretation, Hudson makes a remarkable contribution to our understanding of an Indian religious and cultural tradition.

Book Synopsis A Fistful of Grass by : Russell Hatler
Download or read book A Fistful of Grass written by Russell Hatler and published by . This book was released on 2022-09-09 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In his debut novel, "Casino Hopping Through the Lower 48" Chuck Stevenson worked for IBM until his untimely encounter with an HR Reduction In Force lollapalooza. In order to come to terms with life he embarked on a 6,000-mile odyssey to "find himself." His estranged wife Bernie said he'd be better off trying to "find a job!" This book takes place three years later. Chuck and Bernie's kids, Tracy and Brandon, are twenty-six and twenty respectively although you'll seldom find the terms "Brandon" and "respect" in any manner, shape or form lurking in the same sentence. Chuck and Bernie are still on the civilized fringe of divorce. Chuck springs for a Labor Day weekend flight that takes him and the kids to Seattle in the great state of Washington where the rain falls daily and grass is everywhere. Yup. Grass. The smoking kind. The novel is all about stupid laws (marijuana and others), unconventional behavior (sexual as well as social), licit and illicit relationships (both private and professional) and how we as adults trapped within the system are compelled to cope. There are a great many bent and twisted characters in the book, some of whom get their comeuppance in the end and others who breeze through life unscathed by the random demands of Karma.
