        Hindu Myths

        From Ancient Cosmology to Gods and Demons

        by MARTIN J. DOUGHERTY

        There is no clear start point for Hinduism, no single prophet or messiah who taughtpeople how to worship and the forms to follow. Nor is there a single text containingthe universal truths; instead, there are many different practices and innumerablevariants of common myths and tales.From the ancient Sanskrit texts of the Upanishads, Vedas, Mahabharata and Ramayana, the characters, gods and narratives of Hinduism emerged to demonstratethe moral precepts, duties and correct behaviour of Hinduism. Learn about Vediccosmology, which is divided into four cyclical Yugas, or epochs, and which has nobeginning or end; or the creation myth of Varaha, a powerful boar who saved theearth from primordial waters; or the legend of Rama, who against great odds rescueshis love Sita from the demon-king Ravana; or Vishnu, the greatest god in the HinduTrimurti (triad), who takes the form of nine different avatars and stops the earth frombeing destroyed through preserving Atman, the unchanging ultimate reality.Illustrated with 120 photographs and artworks, Hindu Myths is an accessible,engaging and highly informative exploration of the complex mythology underlyingone of the world’s oldest and most influential religions.

        Five women who held court before the war

        by Shruti Hajirnis Gupte

        For the last time Draupadi throws a glance at her untied tresses; for the last time she looks into the eyes that have become bright with unshed tears. These eyes have been chasing vengeance like a hunter follows a spoor. She raises her index finger and points it towards her mirror image. She shouts – “I will ensure that a war must happen.”While the stars are growing dim in the pre-dawn sky, the matriarch of Kuru dynasty – Satyavati -- arrives on the battlefield of Kurukshetra to hold a discussion with Kunti, Gandhari, Draupadi and Rukmini. She is determined to bring a peaceful settlement to prevent the war in her dynasty. Draupadi, burning in the fire of revenge for last thirteen years desperately wants this war to happen. While the court is divided in two amongst the women of Kuru dynasty, Rukmini joins the discussion. Along with her, she brings a new perspective.Could the discussion between the five women change the course of Mahabharata?Mahabharatee : a story of five women who held the could before war."It makes a deeply engaging and interesting read, beyond doubt." — Vinay Sahasrabuddhe, President, Indian Council for Cultural Relations.

        Mrutyunjay

        by Shivaji Sawant

        The Mahabharata, the well known Indian epic, describes the power struggle between the Pandavas and the Kauravas. It is replete with stories of warriors of which Karna is one. He was born to Kunti, the mother of the Pandavas before her marriage. Scared of the stigma, she abandoned the new born who was brought up by a person whose standing in the social hierarchy was low. Karna was thus looked down upon and became a victim of circumstances. He failed to get education or enter a matrimonial alliance the way the children of the noble people did. He became a friend of Duryodhana, the prince of the Kauravas. However, when the battle for supremacy broke out between the two families, in spite of his valour, skill in archery, and deep knowledge of warfare, Karna was kept out of it due to his family status. He took over as the commander of the Kauravas when the force was depleted. He met his end without achieving neither victory for the Kauravas or fulfilling his personal desire of defeating Arjun, his arch enemy among the Pandavas.   Mrityanjaya is about the brave and generous Karna who fought against his misfortunes throughout his life. He never got his due. His is an example of how misjudgment can render all the finer qualities of an individual futile.

        Short Stories by Women Writers of Odisha

        by Edited by Valerie Henitiuk and Supriya Kar

        Spark of Light is a diverse collection of short stories by women writers from the Indian province of Odisha. Originally written in Odia and dating from the late nineteenth century to the present, these stories offer a multiplicity of voices—some sentimental and melodramatic, others rebellious and bold—and capture the predicament of characters who often live on the margins of society. From a spectrum of viewpoints, writing styles, and motifs, the stories included here provide examples of the great richness of Odishan literary culture. In the often shadowy and grim world depicted in this collection, themes of class, poverty, violence, and family are developed. Together they form a critique of social mores and illuminate the difficult lives of the subaltern in Odisha society. The work of these authors contributes to an ongoing dialogue concerning the challenges, hardships, joys, and successes experienced by women around the world. In these provocative explorations of the short-story form, we discover the voices of these rarely heard women. To learn more about this publisher, click here: http://bit.ly/1ZT7e56

        Beloved Delhi

        A Mughal City and her Greatest Poets

        by Saif Mahmood (Foreword by Rakhshanda Jalil; Preface by Sohail Hashmi)

        ‘A riveting resurrection of the city of poets, the city of history, Saif Mahmood’s learned and evocative book takes us to the heart of Delhi’s romance with Urdu verse and aesthetics.’—Namita Gokhale Urdu poetry rules the cultural and emotional landscape of India—especially northern India and much of the Deccan—and of Pakistan. And it was in the great, ancient city of Delhi that Urdu grew to become one of the world’s most beautiful languages. Through the 18th and 19th centuries, while the Mughal Empire was in decline, Delhi became the capital of a parallel kingdom—the kingdom of Urdu poetry—producing some of the greatest, most popular poets of all time. They wrote about the pleasure and pain of love, about the splendour of God and the villainy of preachers, about the seductions of wine, and about Delhi, their beloved home. This treasure of a book documents the life and work of the finest classical Urdu poets: Sauda, Dard, Mir, Ghalib, Momin, Zafar, Zauq and Daagh. Through their biographies and poetry—including their best-known ghazals—it also paints a compelling portrait of Mughal Delhi. This is a book for anyone who has ever been touched by Urdu or Delhi, by poetry or romance.
