Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Hindu Christian Relations written by Chad M. Bauman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2020-12-30 with total page 957 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The historical interplay of Hinduism as an ancient Indian religion and Christianity as a religion associated (in India, at least) with foreign power and colonialism, continues to animate Hindu–Christian relations today. On the one hand, The Routledge Handbook of Hindu–Christian Relations describes a rich history of amicable, productive, even sometimes syncretic Hindu–Christian encounters. On the other, this handbook equally attends to historical and contemporary moments of tension, conflict, and violence between Hindus and Christians. Comprising thirty-nine chapters by a team of international contributors, this handbook is divided into seven parts: Theoretical and methodological considerations Historical interactions Contemporary exchanges Sites of bodily and material interactions Significant figures Comparative theologies Responses The handbook explores: how the study of Hindu–Christian relations has been and ought to be done, the history of Hindu–Christian relations through key interactions, ethnographic reflections on current dynamics of Hindu–Christian exchange, important key thinkers, and topics in comparative theology, ultimately providing a framework for further debates in the area. The Routledge Handbook of Hindu-Christian Relations is essential reading for students and researchers in Hindu–Christian studies, Hindu traditions, Asian religions, and studies in Christianity. This handbook will also be very useful for those in related fields, such as anthropology, political science, theology, and history.
Download or read book The Death and Afterlife of Mahatma Gandhi written by Makarand R Paranjape and published by Random House India. This book was released on 2015-01-30 with total page 348 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Death and Afterlife of Mahatma Gandhi is an explosive and original analysis of the assassination of the ‘Father of the Nation’. Who is responsible for the Mahatma’s death? Just one determined zealot, the larger ideology that supported him, the Congress-led Government that failed to protect him, or a vast majority of Indians and their descendants who considered Gandhi irrelevant, and endorsed violence instead? Paranjape’s meticulous study culminates in his reading of Gandhi’s last six months in Delhi where, from the very edge of the grave, he wrought what was perhaps his greatest miracle – the saving of Delhi and thus of India itself from the internecine bloodshed of Partition. Paranjape, taking a cue from the Mahatma himself, also shows us a way to expiate our guilt and to heal the wounds of an ancient civilization torn into two. This is a brilliant, far-reaching and profound exploration of the meaning of the Mahatma’s death."

Download or read book Burning for Freedom written by Anurupa Cinar and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2012-06-13 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the story of one mansVinayak Damodar Savarkars sacrifice of his name, fame, comfort, and family life in the fifty years of his quest for the freedom of his beloved motherland, India. It is the story of politics and power plays. Exposed here is the reality that lies behind the mask of Truth; exposed are the shenanigans of Mahatma Gandhi in the Freedom Movement of India. The reality is a far cry from the rosy picture presented by what passes as history. Here, Savarkars life is creatively intertwined with a fictional character, Keshav Wadkar, taking the reader from the horrors of the Cellular Jail in 1913 to the assassination of Mahatma Gandhi in 1948. Savarkar fought to preserve the integrity of India, to reinstate the honor of his motherland without ripping her heart out. For the emancipation of his beloved country and people, he suffered agonies and gross injustices at the hands of the British government, Gandhi-Nehru-led Indian National Congress, and the successive Governments of free India. That his contribution to India should be negated to bolster the political aspirations of any political party is unacceptable. The truth cannotand shall notbe hidden!
Download or read book Partition written by Kamlesh Kapur and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2022-09-05 with total page 726 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the history of India’s struggle for freedom from circa 1915 to present day. Salient events from the 17th to 19th century are included to provide context to later events. The account narrated here is evidence-based, covering the four decades after M. K. Gandhi’s return from Africa. This is a historical narrative based on the facts and events that happened, backed by public domain records. These are further corroborated by Gandhi’s speeches, articles and letters written to the British authorities, with the ultimate aim of demystifying Gandhi’s Mahatmaship. The book highlights the series of missed opportunities and poor decisions made by the Indian leadership (primarily Gandhi and Nehru) during the course of independence and thereafter. These events and decisions have already affected the four generations of people. While there were several noteworthy freedom fighters who tried to steer things in more opportune directions, they were stymied by Gandhi’s authoritarian stance and his often-obstinate stand on social, economic, and political developments. This book looks critically at the decisions Gandhi made and their impact on modern-day India. Divided in seven sections, the first four sections discuss Gandhi’s leadership and his actions during the freedom struggle; the fifth section gives a detailed analysis of the 60 years of post-independence Congress regimes, during which Nehru and his dynasty’s policies destroyed the five pillars of democracy. Finally, the epilogue suggests a road map for the way forward.

Download or read book Geek Nation written by Angela Saini and published by Hodder & Stoughton. This book was released on 2011-03-03 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India: it's a nation of geeks, swots and nerds. Almost one in five of all medical and dental staff in the UK is of Indian origin, and one in six employed scientists with science or engineering doctorates in the US is Asian. By the turn of the millennium, there were even claims that a third of all engineers in Silicon Valley were of Indian origin, with Indians running 750 of its tech companies. At the dawn of this scientific revolution, Geek Nation is a journey to meet the inventors, engineers and young scientists helping to give birth to the world’s next scientific superpower – a nation built not on conquest, oil or minerals, but on the scientific ingenuity of its people. Angela Saini explains how ancient science is giving way to new, and how the technology of the wealthy are passing on to the poor. Delving inside the psyche of India’s science-hungry citizens, she explores the reason why the government of the most religious country on earth has put its faith in science and technology. Through witty first-hand reportage and penetrative analysis, Geek Nation explains what this means for the rest of the world, and how a spiritual nation squares its soul with hard rationality. Full of curious, colourful characters and gripping stories, it describes India through its people – a nation of geeks. curious, colourful characters and gripping stories, it describes India through its people – a nation of geeks.
Download or read book India Armenia written by Achal Malhotra and published by Notion Press. This book was released on 2018-09-07 with total page 106 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: India- Armenia: So Far Yet So Close, written by Achal Malhotra, who served as India's Ambassador to Armenia (2009-12), traces the origins of people to people contacts between Armenia and India to at least 2nd century B.C., and thereafter narrates the story of the glorious past of Armenians in India from medieval India up to India's independence in 1947. He finally highlights the emergence of a new quality of cooperation between the Indian and the Armenian people at the end of the 20th century, which came as a result of the establishment of official ties between the newly independent Republic of Armenia and India on August 31, 1992, and presents his own inspirational vision for the future of this cooperation, based on his insights as a key player in its development. The readers will be struck with the drastic contrast between the harmonious integration and prosperity of Armenians in Indian society in the past and the apparent absence of Armenians from the landscape of contemporary Indian culture, business and politics. The exodus of the erstwhile prosperous Armenian population from India was nothing but a misread of the situation and a miscalculation of the country’s future on the part of Indian-Armenians in the 20th century. India- Armenia: So Far Yet So Close is intended to trigger interest in its theme, help readers to visualize the distant past and introduce unfamiliar readers with the vibrant history shared between the two ancient people.

It also describes the lives of the students in the campus and its academic, intellectual, and cultural atmosphere. This book also considers the role and influence of the British in the development of Hindu education during the late colonial period and the importance of the university's location.
