Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gods of God's Own Country is a reminder of a forgotten culture and the communities surrounding it. Theyyam is a Dravidian ritual art form of Kerala, India - God's own country. This book provides detailed information about Theyyam, beautiful images, and hundreds of stories. We dedicate this book to the Theyyam artists, the veritable gods "Of the People, by the People, for the People." The author had the amazing grace of chasing the light with his camera during his management consulting, and volunteer roles, embarking upon expeditions in and around twenty countries over the past three decades. However, he has yet to catch sight of a place where over 500 gods descend upon the earth during a single season. Sandwiched between the Western Ghats mountain range (a UNESCO World Heritage Site) and the queenly Arabian sea, carpeted by natural greenery, the hilly terrains of North Malabar open it's off-beat paths for the Theyyam Gods to embrace the gods-forsaken disciples. Thanks to those Theyyam Gods, the Malabar corner is that truly shining city on a hill. These gods double-up as costume designers, painters, musicians, artisans, drummers, and choreographers. They transcend the human realms and have burgeoned into a mystical form, where they endure blazing fires and carry hefty costumes effortlessly. The Gods of The God's Own Country takes you on a whirlwind ride into the dense history and astonishing versatility of Theyyam, the ritual dance of the glistening cities atop the Malabar Hills of God's Own Country – Kerala. It is rich in captivating images of Theyyam and storytelling. The book's second part embarks on the Herculean task of covering the centuries-old, mesmerizing 101 Theyyam stories. Like the Blues in the Mississippi Delta, using song and dance, the Thottam and Theyyam express the melancholy of the Dravida, natives of God's Own Country, submerged under the 5000-year-old Chaturvarnya caste system. A true divine rebellion against mighty, unjust systems, their stories and art pluck a string in our own hearts today.

Book excerpt: A Buddhist monk takes up arms to resist the Chinese invasion of Tibet - then spends the rest of his life trying to atone for the violence by hand printing the best prayer flags in India. A Jain nun tests her powers of detachment as she watches her best friend ritually starve herself to death. Nine people, nine lives; each one taking a different religious path, each one an unforgettable story. William Dalrymple delves deep into the heart of a nation torn between the relentless onslaught of modernity and the ancient traditions that endure to this day.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It’s halftime America! Ay Yi Yai Yi! We are in the middle of The New World Order! Empires rise, decline, and fall. History has witnessed this cycle with the Romans, the Ottomans, and the British. They have all toppled, and if we are not careful, the US will be the next. Many of today’s enterprises are a gaggle of debt-addicted extreme financial engineering frogs floundering in tepid snake oil. Unfortunately, many will find their demise in the clutches of IP vultures. If we don't play our trump cards right, the next voracious Empire - the Middle Kingdom of China - will consume us; sending their errand boys to collect bills from the US and over a hundred other countries that it has economically and digitally colonized since the Economic Tsunami of 2008, through “Belt and Road Initiative” (BRI) to its “Digital Silk Road” (DSR). “Make Enterprise Great Again” digs into the foundations of capitalism and traces the ideals, triumphs and zeitgeist of the Roosevelt years in order to “Build Back Better” – and to save us from the impending Fourth Reich. Yeah! It's halftime, America!

Book excerpt: One Woman, Two Lives is an Award Winning multigenerational saga set in late 18th Century Southern India. It follows the struggles of the women in one family as they fight to deal with the oppression of the caste system imposed on them, both by society at large as well as from within their own family. When a tragic betrayal results in the death of her sister, suicide of her mother and financial ruin of her father, young Bhavani will have to rise above the expectations and traditional role imposed upon her in order to take revenge and restore honor to her family's name. Nalinavilasom Bhavaniamma, Ajay's great-grandmother, inspired the creation of Bhavani in One Woman, Two Lives. Growing up hearing stories from Nalinavilasom Bhavaniamma about the "untouchable era" days sparked empathy in Ajay toward what earlier generations had experienced, as well as opened his eyes to what women were still fighting. Ajay, himself, witnessed many times where low-caste women and men were treated differently and he never understood why. The weight of Nalinavilasom Bhavaniamma's stories stayed with him as he grew older, and he knew he needed to share this story. Everything from Bhavani's fighting instinct to her deep love for family was inspired by Nalinavilasom Bhavaniamma.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entertaining and enthralling collection of myths, tales and traditions surrounding our trees, woodlands and forests from around the world. From the dark, gnarled woodlands of the north, to the humid jungles of the southern lands, trees have captured humanity's imagination for millennia. Filled with primal gods and goddesses, dryads and the fairy tales of old, the forests still beckon to us, offering sanctuary, mystery and more than a little mischievous trickery. From insatiable cannibalistic children hewn from logs, to lumberjack lore, and the spine-chilling legend of Bloody Mary, there is much to be found between the branches. Come into the trees; witches, seductive spirits and big, bad wolves await you. With this book, Folklore Thursday aim to encourage a sense of belonging across all cultures by showing how much we all have in common.
