Download or read book Bowing to Elephants written by Mag Dimond and published by She Writes Press. This book was released on 2019-09-17 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Bowing to Elephants, a woman seeking love and authenticity comes to understand herself as a citizen of the world through decades of wandering the globe. During her travels she sees herself more clearly as she gazes into the feathery eyes of a 14,000-pound African elephant and looks for answers to old questions in Vietnam and the tragically ravaged landscape of Cambodia. Bowing to Elephants is a travel memoir with a twist―the story of an unloved rich girl from San Francisco who becomes a travel junkie, searching for herself in the world to avoid the tragic fate of her narcissistic, alcoholic mother. Haunted by images of childhood loneliness and the need to learn about her world, Dimond journeys to far-flung places―into the perfumed chaos of India, the nostalgic, damp streets of Paris, the gray, watery world of Venice in the winter, the reverent and silent mountains of Bhutan, and the gold temples of Burma. In the end, she accepts the death of the mother she never really had―and finds peace and her authentic self in the refuge of Buddhist practice.

Book Synopsis The Elephant Lore of the Hindus by : F. Edgerton
Download or read book The Elephant Lore of the Hindus written by F. Edgerton and published by Motilal Banarsidass. This book was released on 1985-01-01 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is intended to serve as an introduction to the elephant lore of Hindus. It consists primarily of a translation of the "Elephant-Sport" (Matanga-Lila) of Nilakantha, with notes, introduction, and glossary. The Matanga-Lila is, without doubt, the best available Sanskrit work on elephantology. It is a brief and succinct treatise in 263 stanzas, divided into twelve chapters of uneven length. Nothing is known of the Nilakantha who is mentioned as its author. According to the editor, Ganapati Sastri, the three manuscripts he used are about two hundred years old. But the work is probably very much older. For aught, we know it may go back a thousand years or even to a much earlier date. This, however, is purely conjectural; all we can say is that there is no positive trace of modernity in the work. The elephant lore of our text is based on a genuine traditional knowledge that grew up among those whose business it was to deal with elephants, and that this tradition has persisted to modern times.
