Book excerpt: Om, the handsome son of the head-priest of an almost unreachable hilltop Shiva temple, has been yearning to see the world below. The brief visit of the beautiful mountaineer, Anjali, sets his heart on fire, acting as a catalyst to his journey. One night, he runs away from the temple to catch up with Anjali in her city, but not before asking Shiva to forgive him. And Shiva smiles! Oms journey is eventful as he interacts with various performances on the world stage, experiencing every facet of human emotion. Om meets Anjali and the narrative unfolds into a melodramatic love triangle, where Girish, the over possessive lover is determined to keep them apart in every which way. Does Om find his true love in Anjali? Or, does the glamorous city life lure Om away from her, and even Shiva? Or, does all this bring him closer to his inner self? Shiva and Parvati make a few one-page appearances in the book, watching with interest the wanderings of their devotee. And smiling!

Book Synopsis Opening Kailasanatha by : Padma Kaimal
Download or read book Opening Kailasanatha written by Padma Kaimal and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2021-03-08 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Stone figures hardened by ascetic discipline and heroic effort face north in deep shadow. There they meet the gazes of the same gods and goddesses but with gentler bodies enacting grace, warmth, seduction, and marriage, drenched in sunlight, facing south. These figures adorn the eighth-century Kailasanatha temple complex in southeastern India, built by rulers who were both warriors and ascetics, engaged in the work of this world and in spiritual quests. They designed their temple as an exuberant visual feast to sustain both modes of being. In Opening Kailasanatha, Padma Kaimal deciphers the intentions of the monument’s makers, reaching back across centuries to illuminate worldviews of the ancient Indic south. She reveals how circling the complex in a clockwise direction focuses the mind and spirit on worldly engagement; in a counterclockwise direction, on renunciation and ascetic practice. This pairing of highly charged, complementary pathways enabled devotees to grasp these counterpoised opportunities in their own listening, gazing, moving bodies. By focusing on the material form of the complex—the architecture, inscriptions, and sculptures, along with the spaces they carve out that guide light, shadow, sound, and footsteps—Kaimal offers insights that complement what surviving texts tell us about Shaiva Siddhanta ideas and practices, providing a rare opportunity to walk in the distant past.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Shri Ramlila (The playful acts of Shri Ram) is a sequence of 24 one-act plays that depict his glory from birth to crowning. Readers can perform them as a complete epic, enact only one act, or use some dialogues as a short mono act. The book covers most stories of Shri Ramcharitmanas (written by Goswami Tulsidas Ji) and Valmiki Ramayan. Information from other holy books is also included. The details mentioned in the epics can overwhelm first-time readers. To help them, these are shown in summaries, lists, and pictographs. Hindi couplets (with meaning) and prayers translated into English aim to enrich the reading experience. Teachings and morals are in place to drive the religious and ethical messages. A list of characters, their personifications, backdrops, and props, will aid those who want to enact the plays. Scenes and dialogues have been written to cover the story in minimum acts. In short, the plays do cover most information written in the epic. Let's hope it inspires all to read the original masterpieces. Shri Ram, Jai Ram, Jai Jai Ram!

Book Synopsis Lilith: Angel of the Abyss by : Khalil altahhan
Download or read book Lilith: Angel of the Abyss written by Khalil altahhan and published by khalil altahhan. This book was released on with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel intertwines religions, spirituality, and philosophy. Dear reader, regardless of your belief, religion, culture, or even if you are secular, I promise you that you will be astonished by this novel, and your life will change after reading it. I promise that its details will remain etched in your memory for life. I also promise that the name Lilith will be forever engraved in your mind. Dear reader, Welcome to the pages of this novel, which represents a deep personal and intellectual journey for me. It is among the latest and finest work I have ever written. As you delve into the strange and mysterious realms of this story, I would like to share a secret that may seem unfamiliar but is profoundly meaningful to me. This novel was the result of mysterious flows of inspiration; it was not merely a product of my conscious mind, but rather ideas flowed into my mind as if sent from a supernatural world, from a hidden place whose source I do not know. During the writing process, I felt as though I was merely a conduit for visions and concepts that transcended the limits of my knowledge and understanding of the world. This hidden inspiration led me to construct parallel worlds where lost souls meet and nightmares become tangible realities. The worlds you will read about here may be more than mere fiction; they are a reflection of a truth that might exist within the folds of the universe, beyond the scope of our ordinary vision. I invite you to open your heart and mind as you read, to experience this spiritual and intellectual journey with me, and to allow yourself to question the source of creativity and whether there are hidden forces guiding us toward discovering deeper truths about our existence. Perhaps, within these pages, you too may find a glimmer of inspiration that transcends the boundaries of this world. I wish you an enjoyable journey filled with reflection and inquiry. With warm regards, Poet and Novelist: Khalil Altahhan

Book Synopsis Resisting Dispossession by : Ranjana Padhi
Download or read book Resisting Dispossession written by Ranjana Padhi and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-03-20 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book brings to the reader a set of political and social narratives woven around people’s resistance against big dams, mining and industrial projects, in short, displacement and dispossession in Odisha, India. This saga of dispossession abounds with stories and narratives of ordinary peasants, forest dwellers, fisher folk and landless wage laborers, which make the canvas of resistance history more complete. The book foregrounds these protagonists and the events that marked their lives; they live in the coastal plains as well as the hilly and forested areas of south and south-west Odisha. The authors have chronicled the development trajectory from the construction of the Hirakud Dam in the 1950s to the entry of corporations like POSCO and Vedanta in contemporary times. It thus covers extensive ground in interrogating the nature of industrialization being ushered into the state from post-independent India till today. The book depicts how and why people resist the development juggernaut in a state marked with endemic poverty. In unraveling this complex reality, the book conveys the world view of a vast section of people whose lives and livelihoods are tied up to land, forests, mountains, seas, rivers, lakes, ponds, trees, vines and bushes. These narratives fill a yawning gap in resistance literature in the context of Odisha. In doing so, they resonate with the current predicament of people in other mineral-rich states in Eastern India. The book is an endeavour to bring Odisha on the map of resistance politics and social movements in India and across the world.
