Book excerpt: The present book entitled Rock Cut Temples of Western India is an exhaustive book that covers all the caves of Western India. The book is the need of the times as a more researched book, a more detailed book on Western Caves has not been published after James Burgess and James Fergusson. Modern view points and deeper under- Standing of the caves was essential. The study required huge travel around the caves it was difficult to access some caves. Since there are no facilities around, photography was extremely perplexing. However the book was completed within a span of three and a half years. Focus of the book is on the evolution of the chaitya and the vihara caves as well as an comprehensive documentation of all the caves. Each cave was carefully studied and their architectural, cultural details were documented. A comparative study too has been included as similarities and dissimilarities establish a more authentic dating in case of absence of inscriptions. The book also throws light on many unidentified sculptures. The special contribution of the book is the inclusion of practically all caves .even some caves that were not included by James Burgess and Fergusson like the unknown caves of Kol, Yerphal, Pohale, Nadsur and Nenavali. Some of these caves are simply in accessible. Besides all the documentation the book has also taken special pains to assess and evaluate the present conditions of all these monuments as after a gap of many years many cave groups are in an extremely bad condition. Those caves under ASI are in fairly good condition, though of course caves like Ajanta where the painting despite commendable development and conservation work being done are in a bad condition due to climatic and other geographical and man made reasons. In the study major scholars work has been referred to as their contribution is significant.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rock-Cut Temples of India During a lengthened residence in India it was my good fortune to be able to visit in succession all the principal groups of Rock-cut Temples which, were then known to exist in that country. In 1836 those of Cuttack were first examined. In 1838 an extended tour was made for the purpose of exploring those of Western India, and in 1841 the investigation was completed by a visit to those of Mahavellipore, in the Madras Presidency The intervals that elapsed between these several dates were useful for correcting the vagueness of first impressions, and in enabling me to fill up the gaps in my knowledge of Indian architecture, by examining contemporary structural buildings, and studying other cognate sources of information. The results of these investigations were embodied in a paper which was read to the Royal Asiatic Society in 1843, and published in the Eighth Volume of its Journal. This paper was afterwards republished in 1845, accompanied by nineteen lithographic plates, in folio, illustrating the principal types of Rock-cut Architecture in India.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word Vastu has become synonym for the intellectual degradation of Indian mind. Vastushastra which was in oblivion for thousands of years was salvaged to lime light a few decades ago. The Vastushastra which is descriminitive at its roots , obsolete in time and fraudulent in practice became contagious spreading from metropolitan cities to remote villages. It is very saddening that Vastushastra is thriving through the nurturing of the well educated class of India under the guise of ancient building science which was developed by great seers& sages to lead fruitful life on earth. Each and every success and failure , joys and pains of an individual are recognized through Vastu compliance of his/her house. The basic life experiences which provided the courage and inspiration to face the vagaries of one’s life are condemned and taken over by Vastu compliance. In this age of science Vastushastra has devoured both literate and illiterate , uraban and rural population without any difference. The print and electronic media have become the vehicles of pseudoscience of Vastushastra bringing the fear that Indians may be losing their rationality. At this if juncture if we do not bring back the rationality of thinking , the life of common man will be in hands of Vastu pandits and experts mocking the intellectual maturity of Indian mind. In this book Author has shown in detail how Vastushastra is discriminative through its interwoven Varna (caste) system in building houses and obsolete for modern living. The fraudulent way of using Vastu by conman by pseudoscientific explanations to fleece the gullible public is highlighted. The evolution of Indian temples independent of Vastuhastra , the contrast between modern Architecture , Civil engineering are discussed in elaborate in the book.
