Book excerpt: Ancient Vedic India was a land where knowledge and wisdom were revered as the greatest wealth. There intellectual Brahmins, sagely Rishis, and equipoised Munis were honored for their incomparable knowledge. At a time when writing was not well developed, Smriti or memory was the main medium by which knowledge was recorded before transmitting it through Vak or the spoken word from a preceptor Guru to his disciples Shishyas. Mantras or hymns composed in ancient Sanskrit were used to remember complex knowledge along with Katha or thought-provoking tales. These tales besides being entertaining were also enlightening and promoted deeper Vichara or contemplation. In this first volume of Rishis Tales, U. Mahesh Prabhu presents 21 such stories translated from the ancient Sanskrit. Tales that continue to inspire millions of people towards the true understanding of Self, wisdom, peace, and prosperity.

His stories are short, poignant, and diverse, with multiple levels of meaning, like parables, conundrums, paradoxes and axioms (sutras). He has drawn these stories from many traditional sources in Sanskrit literature and reworked them in a concise and invocative manner. They feature the names and stories of famous sages, kings, places and the peoples of old India. Such exalted figures as King Bhartrihari or the Vedantic sage Ashtavakra visit these pages and come to life again through them.

N and published by StoryMirror Infotech Pvt Ltd. This book was released on 2024-03-27 with total page 239 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book: Questions: · Can we infer the chronology of our country from our literature while applying a scientific filter to discard the myths? · Is it possible to chronicle the kings, rishis, people’s lives, their scientific progress, and literary creations, “as-it-happened”? · Is it achievable to present this information in an engaging manner that captivates individuals from high school students to retired educators? Answer: Yes. This book chronologically organizes the Rishis, kings, literary evolution, people's lives, and scientific progress based on Sanskrit and Tamil literature. Through rigorous reconciliation, it aims to eliminate myths, confusions, interpolations, and exaggerations. The aim is to offer a clear, logical and captivating narrative, enriched with pictures. The chronology includes the ancient Rishis such as Bhrugu, Atri, Vaśishtha, Viśvāmitra, Paraśurāma, Bhāradvāja, Dīrgatamas, Agastya, Krishna Dvaipāyana, and more. Additionally, it accurately positions renowned kings like Purūravas, Yayāti, Śibi, Hariśchandra, Bhagīratha, Bharata, Raghu, Rāma, Kurū, Krishna, Yudhishthira, and others in their respective timelines. Top of Form Furthermore, this period encompasses significant events including the rendering of the Vedic mantras by the Rishis, the Aryan clan split towards Iran resulting in the formation of the Zōrōastrians, the atrocities and defeat of the Haihaya clan, fusion of Nāgās and other native tribes into the Vedic religion, Āryan colonization of South India, and the Bharata battle at Kurukshetra.

Book excerpt: What are the 5 characteristics of a short story? They are true masters at combining the five key elements that go into every great short story: character, setting, conflict, plot and theme. The basic steps of a plot are: conflict begins, things go right, things go WRONG, final victory (or defeat), and wrap-up. The right-wrong steps can repeat. A novel can have several conflicts, but a short story should have only one. While we selected these stories out of a huge pile of submissions, some pieces stood out and clearly deserve a seperate mention due to their excellence: 1. Wine and Blood 2. I hope you never know 3. Pigeon 4. The Money Order 5. Eclectic Shorts 6. Enough 7. Irene 8. The Beginning of the End 9. Love in the Line of Fire 10. The Last Blink 11. An Adopted Dream 12. Zombie Train 13. Was She? 14. Platonic Love 15. paanch patthar Some of the stories that we compiled were simply selected on the basis of the themes chosen by their respective authors.A theme is something important the story tries to tell us—something that might help us in our own lives. Not every story has a theme, but it’s best if it does. While some others were selected due toi the authors' style of writing. The strongest stories have well-developed themes, engaging plots, suitable structure, memorable characters, well-chosen settings, and attractive style. Now you might argue that good writers often break rules—but they know they’re doing it! So our biggest recommendation for aspiring writers is to read more, write often but most importantly self-edit ruthlessly. Owing to the fact that we as a team aim to provide a platform for new a nd aspiring writers across borders, we named this volume -Blooming Tales. And now without further ado, we present blooming tales from our very talented writers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reading The Untold Story of Seeta a journey through fields, palaces and forests, is like traversing the journey of Seetas life, the wife of Ram, the legendary king of Kosala. Although the story follows the chronology of events in the famous epic the Ramayana, it is not a retelling of the Ramayana. Neeraja Phatak brings Seeta to life as she - Seeta tells her own story and of her love for Ram. Nagging questions around Seetas personality are viewed from a fresh perspective. Was Seetas greatest quality her ability to suffer in silence? Is it possible that the daughter of the great Janak, and a pupil of the great sage Gargi, had no opinion of her own? How could Ram, considered the best among men, have permitted his wife to go through a trial by fire? Or has Seeta been smothered under a veil of convenience? Nuggets of philosophy woven into every day conversations compel the reader to go within and ponder. For example, when Neeraja writes, Ram said, Happiness is a state of mind, it is subjective, and differs from person to person and is relative to a context... This riveting novel holds the readers attention and curiosity till the very end.

Book excerpt: Mantriji was many things to many people but mostly he was a teacher and sage, someone people revered because of his life-changing words and insights. It was impossible to know Mantriji and not be his student. This anthology serves as a memorial of this legendary figure as told by Andrea Olivera and 25 others, including Robert Svoboda, Simon Chokoisky, Alan Annand, Marla Meenakshi Joy, Ananda Shakti, and Gregory Brozek.A mysterious astrologer from the east who can divine how we get to our dreams, Mantriji's reputation is huge because of the many stories about him, his sayings, his teachings, the magical occurrences that surrounded his life. Imagine someone so in touch with time that he can tell you what your issues are based on the relative position of the planets at that very moment. Mantriji was this magical man. And although he was very human, he was always somehow above the fray. Mantriji leaves behind a rich legacy, inspiring the world through his students who venerated him and who are now immortalizing him in this beautiful, colourful book titled A Rishi Among Us. This is a collection of short stories and testimonials that details how Mantriji changed lives. Of course, Mantriji was most famously an astrologer, or 'Jyotishi' in the literal sense, an interpreter of light, but he also taught the Bhagavad Gita, Yoga Sutras, Sanskrit, and many other works through his own brand of Samkhya philosophy. Known for his profound one-liners and parables, Mantriji delighted us all with his wisdom, sense of humour, depth of insight, fondness for good food, and genuine appreciation for all things spiritual. We were honoured by his presence, we were fed by his teachings, we were humbled by his unconditional love, and now this legendary astrologer lives on through his students and will continue to resound through the ages.

Book excerpt: In this sparkling collection, award-winning writer Rishi Reddi weaves a multigenerational tapestry of interconnected lives, depicting members of an Indian American community struggling to balance the demands of tradition with the allure of Western life. In "Lord Krishna," a teenager is offended when his evangelical history teacher likens the Hindu deity to Satan, but ultimately forgives the teacher against his father's wishes. In the title story, "Karma," an unemployed professor rescues birds in downtown Boston after his wealthy brother kicks him out of his home. In "Justice Shiva Ram Murthy," which appeared in The Best American Short Stories 2005, an irascible retired judge reconnects with a childhood friend while adjusting to a new life with his daughter and her American husband. In "Devadasi," a beautiful young woman raised in the United States travels back to India and challenges the sexual confines of her culture. And in "Bangles," a widow decides to return to her native village to flee her son's off-putting American ways. Set mostly in the Boston area, with side trips to an isolated immigrant community in Wichita, Kansas, and the characters' hometown of Hyderabad, India, Karma and Other Stories introduces a luminous new voice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the beautiful apsaras of Hindu myth to the swan maidens of European fairy tales, stories of flying women-some carried by wings, others by clouds, rainbows, floating scarves, and flying horses-reveal the perennial fascination with and ambivalence about female power and sexuality. In Women Who Fly, Serinity Young examines the motif of the flying woman as it appears in a wide variety of cultures and historical periods, in legends, myths, rituals, sacred narratives, and artistic productions. She considers supernatural women like the Valkyries of Norse legend, who transport men to immortality; winged deities like the Greek goddesses Iris and Nike; figures of terror like the Furies, witches, and succubi; airborne Christian mystics; and wayward, dangerous women like Lilith and Morgan le Fay. Looking beyond the supernatural, Young examines the modern mythology surrounding twentieth-century female aviators like Amelia Earhart and Hanna Reitsch. Throughout, Young demonstrates that female power has always been inextricably linked with female sexuality and that the desire to control it is a pervasive theme in these stories. This is vividly depicted, for example, in the twelfth-century Niebelungenlied, in which the proud warrior-queen Brünnhilde loses her great physical strength when she is tricked into surrendering her virginity. Even in the twentieth-century the same idea is reflected in the exploits of the comic book and film character Wonder Woman who, Young suggests, retains her physical strength only because her love for fellow aviator Steve Trevor goes unrequited. The first book to systematically chronicle the figure of the flying woman in myth, literature, art, and pop culture, Women Who Fly offers a fresh look at the ways in which women have both influenced and been understood by society and religious traditions throughout the ages and around the world.
