Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many of ancient India's religious traditions are alive in modern India, and many of these religious traditions are in conflict with one another regarding the future of India. Even the so-called "secular state" is deeply pervaded by religious sentiments growing out of the Neo-Hindu nationalist movement of Gandhi and Nehru. A careful analysis of the current religious scene when placed in its proper long-term historical perspective raises interesting questions about the nature and future of religion not only in India but elsewhere as well.

Book excerpt: "The volume is a sequel to "India's Agony Over Religion" (State University of New York Press, 1995, and Oxford University Press, Delhi, 1997) in the sense that it develops a theory of religion first set forth in the original volume but expands the horizon of the first volume to encompass the general history of religions [inclusive of the Indic traditions: Hindu, Buddhist, Jain; the Abrahamic traditions: Hebrew/Jewish, Christian, Islamic; and the East Asian traditions: Confucian, Daoist, Shinto].The central argument in the book is the assertion that the term "religion" is not primarily significant by its use as a noun, but is better understood in its adjectival sense, namely, "religious," in such expressions as "the religious referent," "the religious issue," or simply, "the religious question.""--Provided by publisher.

Download or read book Eight Lives written by Rajmohan Gandhi and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 1986-01-01 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was written by a Hindu, the grandson of Mohandas K. Gandhi. His intent, in writing on eight Muslims and their influence on India in the twentieth century, is to reduce the gulf between Hindu and Muslims. Focusing on figures viewed as heroes by sub-continent Muslims, he shows that they can be admired by Hindus as well--that they need not be frozen in Hindu minds as foes. Here is a fascinating account of twentieth-century India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh told through biographical sketches of eight men: Sayyid Ahmed Khan (1817-1898), Fazlul Huq (1873-1962), Muhammad Ali Jinnah (1876-1948), Muhammad Iqbal (1876-1938), Muhammad Ali (1878-1931), Abul Kalam Azad (1888-1958), Liaqat Ali Khan (1895-1951), and Zakir Husain (1897-1969).

Book Synopsis Religion and Personal Law in Secular India by : Gerald James Larson
Download or read book Religion and Personal Law in Secular India written by Gerald James Larson and published by Indiana University Press. This book was released on 2001-11-28 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though a directive principle of the constitution, a uniform civil code of law has never been written or instituted in India. As a result, in matters of personal law -- the segment of law concerning marriage, dowry, divorce, parentage, legitimacy, wills, and inheritance -- individuals of different backgrounds must appeal to their respective religious laws for guidance or rulings. But balancing the claims of religious communities with those of a modern secular state has caused some intractable problems for India as a nation. Religion and Personal Law in Secular India provides a comprehensive look into the issues and challenges that India faces as it tries to put a uniform civil code into practice. Contributors include Granville Austin, Robert D. Baird, Srimati Basu, Kevin Brown, Paul Courtright, Rajeev Dhavan, Marc Galanter, Namita Goswami, Laura Dudley Jenkins, Jayanth Krishnan, Gerald James Larson, John H. Mansfield, Ruma Pal, Kunal M.

Book Synopsis AGONY - The Pang of Death by : SHEETAL GUPTA
Download or read book AGONY - The Pang of Death written by SHEETAL GUPTA and published by GOOGLE PLAY BOOKS PUBLISHER. This book was released on 2021-09-05 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: † Introduction † This story belongs to an era about which we do not know anything, it is an untold aspect, a completely fictional narrative. Do not consider it another form of The Bible, it is a fictional and different form of the great scripture. The story of painful torture of a different, loving couple attempting to revive the negative character of The Bible - "Judas Iscariot" (the demonic spirit) and to reveal the miraculous powers of God the Son - "Jesus Christ". Judas Iscariot reveals his own being by his own powers and Jesus Christ by his miraculous powers from small and big events. This story is completely fictional. It has no relation to any living or dead person, religion, sect, event. But it shows the unique and supernatural love for the God of the Christian religion "Jesus Christ". It also shows the love sensation and disconnection of women and men. The woman sees her quality in beauty and a woman who does not have these qualities uses a variety of resources to achieve beauty. But the woman who is beautiful in the body and nature or says that God has beautified her with a boon of beauty a sign stain or say that a Wart is generated on her face, then she tries to remove it from her face. Because it is a useless sign for a beautiful woman. Whom every beautiful woman would like to remove, but this Wart on the face becomes a supernatural power synonymous with a divine boon so what would you call it ?........... † Supernatural Wart † † A G O N Y - The Pang of Death † Through this story, the fictional sub-religion of the Christian religion - "Allnessmaha" is introduced. Which are just a sign of awakening your religious feelings and consciousness. May your faith remain on the great religion - Christianity. There is no mention of "Allnessmaha" in any religious book. This is only imaginary thinking, do not consider it to be true. The request is from you moving away from criticisms read the story full of love story love devotion and supernatural powers rejoicing and devotion. This is an attempt to recognize love and devotion to God, If a positive response is received from you, then this story will be tried to carry on. In this story, no such incident has been mentioned that has hurt your religious sentiments, yet I apologize if there is any unnecessary error or mistake. † Request † The story is based on Christian Religion. Therefore, this story has been translated into English. The story features the Christian son of Christian Religion - "Jesus Christ" as a positive, true character. Who through miraculous, invisible powers, through events, reveal their own being. On the other hand, the negative character of The Bible and the disciple of Jesus Christ, due to which Jesus Christ was crucified. Attempts have been made to revive that negative character - "Judas Iscariot" who appears to be present by his own unseen events. The sketches of the Main page and Last page of the book are presented. As a writer, this is my first attempt. I am convinced that there is something new and unprecedented in this story. The purpose of this story is that you don't do things that God doesn't like. You should neither let any devil dominate your mind nor deceive any person just as Satan entered the mind of "Judas Iscariot" and acted in deceit that caused God the Son "Jesus Christ" to be subjected to atrocities and was forced to die after suffering torture. "Supernatural Wart - AGONY – The Pang of Death" In this story, the Christians of God - "Jesus Christ" and his disciple "Judas Iscariot", in whose mind Satan had entered, are spiritually resurrected centuries later. To know the basic form of the story, it will be necessary to read the entire story and make a readable assessment. Its interestingness lies in its original form. I hope that this first attempt of mine will be successful because of your publication and the immense love of all the readers. Indian Author Sheetal Gupta

Book Synopsis Gods in the Time of Democracy by : Kajri Jain
Download or read book Gods in the Time of Democracy written by Kajri Jain and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2021-01-08 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 2018 India's prime minister, Narendra Modi, inaugurated the world's tallest statue: a 597-foot figure of nationalist leader Sardar Patel. Twice the height of the Statue of Liberty, it is but one of many massive statues built following India's economic reforms of the 1990s. In Gods in the Time of Democracy Kajri Jain examines how monumental icons emerged as a religious and political form in contemporary India, mobilizing the concept of emergence toward a radical treatment of art historical objects as dynamic assemblages. Drawing on a decade of fieldwork at giant statue sites in India and its diaspora and interviews with sculptors, patrons, and visitors, Jain masterfully describes how public icons materialize the intersections between new image technologies, neospiritual religious movements, Hindu nationalist politics, globalization, and Dalit-Bahujan verifications of equality and presence. Centering the ex-colony in rethinking key concepts of the image, Jain demonstrates how these new aesthetic forms entail a simultaneously religious and political retooling of the “infrastructures of the sensible.”
