This book was released on 2023-07-17 with total page 236 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Book Krishna and Mediation is a humble attempt by the author to go back into the history and look at the institution of mediation in India. The Book is not written as a legal treatise. It is written from the point of view of layman and to understand how meditation prevailed in India from ancient time to settle disputes and bring peace and harmony to the society. Though the institution of mediation could be traced back to Vedic period; and Treta Yuga, where it was invoked to avert war between Rama and Ravana, the focus however, has been made on Krishna doing mediation in Dwapar Yuga. The reason for doing so is that Krishna has been considered as Lord of the Universe; and when the Lord of Universe himself adopts a particular mode of dispute resolution, it motivates the entire society and encourages people to resolve their disputes and differences through that mode. The indigenous justice delivery system included Kulani, Sreni, Puga, Mahajan, Mediation and Panchayats. Mediation had always been one of the most important methods of resolving disputes and conflicts. Mediation was done by Angada between Rama and Ravana in Treta Yuga; by Lord Krishna between Kauravas and Pandavas in Dwapar Yuga; and by Supreme Court in Ram Janambhoomi case. Unfortunately, all the three mediations failed. Nevertheless, the community learnt its potential as a dispute settlement mode and invoked it in endless number of cases in the informal manner. The Book discusses conflict and dispute in detail. It also discusses many facets of Lord Krishna. Emphasis has been made on Lord Krishna as Mediator. The Book also discusses Mediation in India and at the international level in contemporary times. It also discusses about the pendency of cases which is going to touch the figure of 5 crores, which is more than the population of several countries taken together. The Book discusses how mediation may become game changer and bring down the pendency of cases. The references have been made to dharma, verses of Gita, stories, poem, etc. to exemplify certain facts. I sincerely hope that the Book will come to the expectations of the readers.

Download or read book Third Party Peacemakers in Judaism written by Daniel Roth and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2021-04-28 with total page 385 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the race to discover real solutions for the conflicts that plague contemporary society, it is essential that we look to precedent. Many of today's conflicts involve ethno-religious tensions that modern wisdom alone is ill-equipped to resolve. In Third-Party Peacemakers in Judaism, Rabbi Dr. Daniel Roth asks us to consider ancient religious and traditional cultural solutions to such present-day issues. Roth presents thirty-six case studies featuring third-party peacemakers drawn from Jewish classical, medieval, and early-modern rabbinic literature. Each case is explored through three layers of analysis - text, theory, and practice. The first layer offers historical and literary analysis of textual case studies, many of which are critically analyzed here for the first time. The second layer examines the theoretical model of third-party peacemaking imbedded within the selected cases and comparing them to other cultural and religious models of third-party peacemaking and conflict resolution. The final layer of analysis, based upon the author's personal experience of religious conflict resolution and peacemaking, looks at the practical implications of these case studies as models for modern peacemaking. Third-Party Peacemakers in Judaism serves as an inspiration for fostering indigenous practices of third-party peacemaking and mediation in the modern era.

Download or read book Dharmaraja written by Dr. M.K. Bharathiramanachar and published by Bharatha Samskruthi Prakashana. This book was released on 2019-03-02 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dharmaraja was true to his name- a person with fortitude, wisdom,courage, tolerance, kindness and righteousness. He was known to be a stickler to the dictates of dharma;thus, when he was invited to play a game of dice with the Kauravas, he didn’t refuse. Infact, he played until he lost everything he had – his kingdom, wealth, brothers and even Draupadi. He could conquer hatred as can be seen when he sent Arjuna and Bhima to battle against the Gandharvas for the release of the Kauravas. Jayadratha was spared at his behest even though the latter had dragged Draupadi in his chariot. Only after he answered all the questions posed by the deadly python, Nahusha, did the python release Bhima. He impressed the yaksha so much that instead of one, all his brothers were brought back to life. Later, when the Pandavas lived in cognito in Viratanagar he stopped his brothers from destroying Virata as he was grateful to him for giving them shelter and food. Before the start of the Mahabharatha war, he took the blessings of all the elders though they were on the Kauravas’ side. He was the chosen one to receive lessons in dharma and administration from Bhishma when he lay on his bed of arrows. Much against his wishes, he was forced to utter a lie to Drona , which he covered up by adding a truth though very softly. He was very moved by all the bloodshed and loss of life caused during the war. Sage Dwaipayana had to convince him to taking on the responsibility of becoming the King. He then systematized the administration and gave responsibilities to able men. Kunti, the Pandavas and Draupadi served and respected Dhritarashtra and Gandhari – they hadn’t received such treatment at their own children’s hands. Yudhistira’s reign as a king was a model one as he was virtue incarnate. Our other books here can be searched using #BharathaSamskruthiPrakashana

Download or read book Conciliation and Mediation in India written by Gracious Timothy Dunna and published by Kluwer Law International B.V.. This book was released on 2022-02-15 with total page 492 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Global Trends in Dispute Resolution Series, Volume 11 It can be said that negotiation is about what to do, whereas mediation is about how to do it—how to make sure control is in the hands of the disputants. Although mediation (as well as conciliation) is taking hold in dispute resolution worldwide, among the nations, India shows the strongest signs of interest in developing a pervasive legal mediation culture. In this invaluable book, more than 20 formidable thought leaders with global reputations in dispute resolution describe how mediation is used, and can be used, to resolve different types of disputes in India and international cases. With a focus throughout on the law and procedure applicable to conciliation and mediation in India—addressing the involvement of each of the stakeholders in the process (with relevant hints on practice)—the contributors examine such issues and topics as the following: mediator ethics; court-annexed mediation; institutional mediation; mediating commercial disputes; mediating company, insolvency, and bankruptcy disputes; mediating government disputes; mediating investor-state disputes; mediating family disputes; e-mediation; community mediation and citizen empowerment; mixed-mode dispute resolution; and cross-border enforcement of mediated settlements. Two practice-oriented chapters synthesize the process, techniques, and approaches that experienced mediators and mediation advocates have found to be most valuable in their preparation for a mediation. Included is a detailed commentary on Part III of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act 1996 and the 2018 Singapore Convention on Mediation. There is little doubt that mediation is the dispute resolution choice of the next-generation lawyer. Present-day lawyers, judges, and users are becoming increasingly convinced that early conflict resolution through facilitated negotiations avoids the pitfalls of adversarial modes of dispute resolution, especially in terms of user satisfaction. This book takes into account where India stands at present, covering statutes, international conventions, and academic literature, thus bequeathing a broad understanding of the subject for legal practitioners, judges, arbitrators, mediators and conciliators, users, and technical experts who wish to understand it.

Download or read book A Critique of Postcolonial Reason written by Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 1999-06-28 with total page 464 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are the “culture wars” over? When did they begin? What is their relationship to gender struggle and the dynamics of class? In her first full treatment of postcolonial studies, a field that she helped define, Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak, one of the world’s foremost literary theorists, poses these questions from within the postcolonial enclave. “We cannot merely continue to act out the part of Caliban,” Spivak writes; and her book is an attempt to understand and describe a more responsible role for the postcolonial critic. A Critique of Postcolonial Reason tracks the figure of the “native informant” through various cultural practices—philosophy, history, literature—to suggest that it emerges as the metropolitan hybrid. The book addresses feminists, philosophers, critics, and interventionist intellectuals, as they unite and divide. It ranges from Kant’s analytic of the sublime to child labor in Bangladesh. Throughout, the notion of a Third World interloper as the pure victim of a colonialist oppressor emerges as sharply suspect: the mud we sling at certain seemingly overbearing ancestors such as Marx and Kant may be the very ground we stand on. A major critical work, Spivak’s book redefines and repositions the postcolonial critic, leading her through transnational cultural studies into considerations of globality.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Mortal God is a study in intellectual history which uncovers how actors in colonial India imagined various figures of human, divine, and messianic rulers to battle over the nature and locus of sovereignty. It studies British and Indian political-intellectual elites as well as South Asian peasant activists, giving particular attention to Bengal, including the associated princely states of Cooch Behar and Tripura. Global intellectual history approaches are deployed to place India within wider trajectories of royal nationhood that unfolded across contemporaneous Europe and Asia. The book intervenes within theoretical debates about sovereignty and political theology, and offers novel arguments about decolonizing and subalternizing sovereignty.

Download or read book Bhima written by Dr. M.K. Bharathiramanachar and published by Bharatha Samskruthi Prakashana. This book was released on 2019-03-02 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bhima was the son of Vayudeva, born to Kunti when Pandu desired her to have a strong son who would help dharma thrive. As a baby, when he rolled on the ground once, the rocks broke into pieces but he remained unhurt. He was good at wrestling, riding and every game he played. Duryodhana who considered Bhima as one of his worst enemies, once pushed him into a deep pool but Bhima went into Nagaloka, where he received nectar from the king of snakes, and this made him even stronger. He saved the world from the clutches of a demon, Hidimba and married the demon’s sister, Hidimbi. He got rid of Bakasura with ease. During Draupadi’s swayamwara when all the disappointed kings and princes tried to attack Arjuna, it was Bhima who wrecked havoc on all. Bhima convinced the apprehensive Yudhistira to send him and Arjuna to kill Jarasandha so that a rajasuya yagna could be performed in order to send their father Pandu to heaven. He swore to break Duryodhana’s thigh because the latter had invited Draupadi to sit on it and be his queen. When Dushasana tugged hard at Draupadi’s sari, Bhima swore to rip open his heart and drink blood from it. Bhima was able to not only enter Saugandhikavana but was able to kill nearly one lakh demons and bring back the divine flowers to Draupadi. He killed Keechaka and 105 Upakeechakas in order to save Draupadi. During the Mahabharatha war, he killed all the Kaurava brothers. Even Drona’s chariot was not spared. Bhima was truly unequalled in strength, forbearance and courage. He discharged his duty as a kshatriya with courage and won Lord SriHari’s favour.
