Book Synopsis Body, History, Myth by : Anna Lise Seastrand
Download or read book Body, History, Myth written by Anna Lise Seastrand and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2024-07-16 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first major exploration of the mural tradition in early modern South India An astonishing variety of murals greet visitors to the temples and palaces of southern India. Beautiful in execution and extensive in scope, murals painted on walls and ceilings adorn the most important spaces of early modern religious and political performance. Scene by scene, histories of holy sites, portraits that incorporate historical figures into mythic landscapes, and Tamil and Telugu inscriptions that evoke the imagined topographies of devotional poetry unfold before the mobile spectator. Body, History, Myth reconceives the relationship between art and devotion in South India by describing how the extraordinary sensory experience of a viewing body in motion unfurls a sacred narrative exquisitely designed to teach, impress, and inspire. Anna Lise Seastrand offers new insights into the arts of early modern southern India, bringing to life one of the most culturally vibrant yet least understood periods in Indian art. She shows how temple visitors become active participants in the paintings through their somatic engagement with visual stories and devotional landscapes. Seastrand highlights the significance of textuality in early modern South Asia by examining the status of professional scribes and the prominence given to authorship of religious literature and art. Her insights are presented alongside new translations of the texts that accompany mural paintings. Featuring a wealth of stunning images published here for the first time, Body, History, Myth provides a multidimensional reading of temple art that fundamentally reframes the artistic, intellectual, religious, and political histories of early modern India.

Download or read book Viraha Bhakti written by Friedhelm Hardy and published by Motilal Banarsidass. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 716 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Lord Krsna abandoned his earthly mistresses who then spent their days of separation pining for his return. This powerful theme found expression not only in myth but also in the devotion and poetry of a religious culture that evolved in South India. From the fifth century A.D., the Tamils absorbed many elements from the classical traditions of the North, such as yoga, the temple worship and Krsna myths, and the results were unique blends of the two civilizations. Viraha-bhakti, as the author styles this type of Krsna religion, imbued the theme of separation with erotic and ecstatic features and evolved as one of the highlights of Indian religion and culture. The present work is a detailed study of the multifarious origins of Viraha-bhakti in South India and its developments up to the point at which it entered the pan-Indian scene. The study suggests a revision of the monolithic image of Indian religion implied in much scholarly literature. It differentiates a great variety of interacting traditions and milieux and demonstrates the dynamism of Indian culture. By identifying a specific type of religion and reflecting on its significance, the author attempts, at the same time, to go beyond purely textual and historical considerations. Thus the book will be of interest to any student of Indian religion and culture.

Book excerpt: Description: This book is an easy to understand definition of Hinduism written for the beginner. A section of this book is on this web site. Besides the basics of Hinduism, there are also sections on Vedic astrology, gemology and Vastu Sastra. Many of the important Hindu gods are described and there are some beautiful line drawings of many of the gods. Such important questions are answered such as: What is the meaning of OM and who are Krishna, Vishnu, Hanuman and Brahma? Some subjects described are yoga, temple worship, Indian festivals, karma, temple design, Buddhism, important temples, Vedic marriages, Siva-lingas, cows, important holy places, and how to act properly in a temple. At the end of the book is a glossary where many of the words used in Hinduism are defined. The astrological and gemology section are written in an easy to understand way, so it will be very useful to the beginner. In many cases when one goes to an astrologer various terms are often used and often a beginner may have no idea what the astrologer is talking about. Therefore many of the terms are described in easy to understand English. In the gemological section there are descriptions of the astrological uses of the gems, how they benefit a person, who should wear each particular gem, and what is a good or bad gem. There are also some useful terms described in reference to gemology. Vastu Sastra is the Vedic or Indian science of building. By building a house under the rules of Vastu Sastra it can influence the fortunes of the residents. This book gives some ideas how one should build a house in a way that will have a positive influence on the people living in it. It also describes how the things should be placed in the inside of the house. There is also a description of what decisions should be made before a house should be purchased.

Book Synopsis Sacred Plants of India by : Nanditha Krishna
Download or read book Sacred Plants of India written by Nanditha Krishna and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2014-05-15 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Plants personify the divine— The Rig Veda (X.97) Trees and plants have long been held sacred to communities the world over. In India, we have a whole variety of flora that feature in our myths, our epics, our rituals, our worship and our daily life. There is the pipal, under which the Buddha meditated on the path to enlightenment; the banyan, in whose branches hide spirits; the ashoka, in a grove of which Sita sheltered when she was Ravana’s prisoner; the tulsi, without which no Hindu house is considered complete; the bilva, with whose leaves it is possible to inadvertently worship Shiva. Before temples were constructed, trees were open-air shrines sheltering the deity, and many were symbolic of the Buddha himself. Sacred Plants of India systematically lays out the sociocultural roots of the various plants found in the Indian subcontinent, while also asserting their ecological importance to our survival. Informative, thought-provoking and meticulously researched, this book draws on mythology and botany and the ancient religious traditions of India to assemble a detailed and fascinating account of India’s flora.
