Along with the Bhagavad-Gita, Srimad-Bhagavatam and Ramayana, the MAHABHARATA is a major work of Vedic literature. With over a hundred thousand verses, it is probably the world's largest epic. It was composed about 5000 years ago in Sanskrit by the great sage Vyasadeva, who also composed the four Vedas, the 18 Puranas, Vedanta-Sutra, Srimad-Bhagavatam and many other holy scriptures. The Mahabharata contains the entire history of the world from creation to destruction, as well as all the spiritual knowledge of the Vedas. The Mahabharata is called the fifth Veda. It paints a picture of a bygone culture that was wholly centred on the eternal values of the Vedas. The Mahābhārata is a multi-layered literary work of art. The exciting historical narrative of the lives of the five great Bharata heros, the Pāṇḍavas, constitutes its top level or framework of wisdom to be conveyed. It is told in the first part of this book. This Ebook comprises approx. 550 pages. It has Glossaries of Sanskrit Terms and Names and a Pronounciation Guide for the Sanskrit letters.

Download or read book Twilight in Delhi written by Ahmed Ali and published by New Directions Publishing. This book was released on 1994-05-17 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in nineteenth-century India between two revolutionary moments of change, Twilight in Delhi brings history alive, depicting most movingly the loss of an entire culture and way of life. As Bonamy Dobree said, "It releases us into a different and quite complete world. Mr. Ahmed Ali makes us hear and smell Delhi...hear the flutter of pigeons’ wings, the cries of itinerant vendors, the calls to prayer, the howls of mourners, the chants of qawwals, smell jasmine and sewage, frying ghee and burning wood." The detail, as E.M. Forster said, is "new and fascinating," poetic and brutal, delightful and callous. First published by the Hogarth Press in 1940. Twilight in Delhi was widely acclaimed by critics and hailed in India as a major literary event. Long since considered a landmark novel, it is now available in the U.S. as a New Directions Classic. Twilight in Delhi has also been translated into French, German, Portuguese, Spanish, and Urdu.
