Adi Deo Arya Devata: A Panoramic View Of Tribal-Hindu Cultural Interface
Vanavasis Or Tribals have made an enormous contribution to India’s civilisation; all major gods of the Hindu tradition have tribal links. Shiva was worshipped by forest-dwelling communities in large parts of the country, as were Vishnu’s incarnations as Varaha (boar) and Narasimha (lion). Lord Ayyappam in Kerala and Mata Vaishno Devi in Jammu also appear to have tribal links. All these gods and temples, as also that of Jagannath in Puri, enjoy pre-eminent status in the classical Hindu pantheon.
India, Bharat And Pakistan : The Constitutional Journey Of A Sandwiched Civilization
India, Bharat and Pakistan is the second book of the Bharat Trilogy which examines, through a decolonial lens, the combined impact of European and Middle Eastern colonialities on Bharat’s civilisational consciousness and its constitutional journey.
RECOMMENDATION
The Hindu View Of Life
A timeless treatise on what constitutes the Hindu way of life.
Religion in India can appear to be a confusing tangle of myths, with many different gods and goddesses worshipped in countless forms.This complexity stems from a love of story-telling, as much as anything else, but it is only the surface expression of Indian faith. Beneath can be found a system of unifying beliefs that have guided the lives of ordinary families for generations. Here, one of the most profound philosophers of India explains these and other related concepts intrinsic to the Hindu philosophy of life.
The Lilas Of The Sons Of Shiva
In this book, Vanamali has given us a fascinating glimpse into the lilas of the three sons of Shiva. Shiva and his sons are all aspects of the great electromagnetic forces that control life. Shiva is the source of all energies. He is the nuclear energy underlying the subatomic particles. At the very core of matter Shiva whirls in this cosmic dance as Nataraja. Ganesha is the god of gravity which is the base of all ordinary existence. Kartikeya is the power of the electromagnetic field. His spear signifies the elemental forces of thunder and lightening. Ayyappa is the force of love as the supreme power which is capable of uniting humanity. Ganesha symbolises the ideas of the emergence of life from earth and the unfolding of consciousness from matter. His dual form of animal and human indicates a sublime theme, which points out to us that we too can aspire to a supramental level even though we have evolved from the animal. The stories of Ganesha, Kartikeya and Shasta are all part of Puranic literature and they cater to the multifaceted intellect of the human being who craves for different expressions of the godhead.
