Download or read book Myths and Legends of India Vol. 2 written by William Radice and published by Penguin UK. This book was released on 2016-05-08 with total page 499 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since time immemorial, India has been an ocean bed over which numerous stories have flowed and enriched the world. Storytellers from Tulsidas to Rohinton Mistry have added their magic to this magnificent repository. Inspired in part by Somadeva’s Kathasaritasagara, William Radice collects these timeless tales of India, and tells them anew through his unique idiom. Like itinerant storytellers, he fills these tales with emotion and wit, bringing them alive for the contemporary reader. In Volume 1, the first section begins with the creation myth of Prajapati, while the Mahabharata section starts with Sakuntala’s story, going up to the founding of Dvaraka by Krishna. In Volume 2, the first section begins with the Hindu myth about Brahma’s creation of bodies, while the Mahabharata section starts with the notorious dice-game and ends with the death of Abhimanyu. True to India’s diversity, the third section of both volumes comprises legends and folk tales from Hindu, Muslim, Buddhist, Jain, Christian and tribal sources. The volumes of Myths and Legends of India are a treasure to delight in and cherish.

Book Synopsis Living Ramayanas: Exploring the Plurality of the Epic in Wayanad and the World by : Azeez Tharuvana
Download or read book Living Ramayanas: Exploring the Plurality of the Epic in Wayanad and the World written by Azeez Tharuvana and published by Westland. This book was released on 2024-07-02 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: About the Book A FASCINATING BOOK ON THE MANY VERSIONS OF RAMAYANA AND THEIR ORIGIN The renowned scholar A.K. Ramanujan was of the view that there are thousands of Ramayanas. He maintained that they are not variant texts of the Valmiki Ramayana, but largely independent ‘tellings’. Even in our age, when printing has become wide-spread, Rama’s story lives on in the minds of the people through narration and performance. In Kerala itself, there are many unwritten Ramayanas. It is believed that the crucial events in the epic unfolded in Wayanad. The names of places and community consciousness corroborate this belief: the ashram at Ashramkolly near Pulpally is Valmiki’s ashram; Jadayattakavu is where Sita went down into the earth; locals recognise the scar left by the tail of Hanuman. But there are several Ramayanas in Wayanad, not just one. In their differences are reflected the social relations of each community. The Adiya Ramayana, Chetti Ramayana and Sitayana, collected and edited by Azeez Tharuvana are innovative tellings. In this fascinating book, Tharuvana talks about the many forms of the timeless epic that originated in Wayanad against the backdrop of the other Ramayanas popular in India and abroad. The stories, collected as part of this effort, provide insights into the traditional cultural consciousness and ideological world of communities in Wayanad. Brilliantly researched and simply written, The Wayanad Ramayanas presents a new perspective: this ode to Rama is a social text, not a religious one.

Book Synopsis Traditions of the Seven Rsis by : John E. Mitchiner
Download or read book Traditions of the Seven Rsis written by John E. Mitchiner and published by Motilal Banarsidass. This book was released on 2000-01-01 with total page 374 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ascetics and mystics have played a prominent role in the development of nearly all religious traditions. The particular importance of such figures within Hinduism is especially evident in the traditions recounted of the Seven Rsis - the seven archetypal sages or seers who are depicted as being more important and powerful than even the gods themselves indeed, through their asceticism the Rsis become the progenitors of the gods, as also of men, demons and all other orders of creation. Traditions of the Seven Rsis is the first systematic study of these traditions and consists of two separate but closely related parts. The first part is a text-historical examination of how and when different traditions were formulated, while the second part explores the various activities and ideas associated with the Seven Rsis. Basing his study on the Sanskrit sources, but making use also of Tamil, tribal and non-Indian sources, Dr Mitchiner sets out the main traditions associated with the Seven Rsis and traces the underlying themes in those traditions, particularly that of the creative role of these ascetic figures. The work encompasses a wealth of original literary material, much of it previously un-translated and is both a sourcebook of the Rsi traditions and a study of the historical development, symbolic meaning and interconnectedness of those traditions, illustrating above all the dynamically creative role of the ascetic and mystic within Hinduism.
