Book excerpt: When India from the early part of the century was trying to reassert and carve out its own destiny, Nagas were trying to preserve their own identity. For centuries Nagas had lived secluded in their villages on hill tops. Nature's resources and their ancient traditions enabled them to lead a happy, healthy, contented life. Their world was their village, the limit of their vision, the village horizon. The early contacts with outsiders were disastrous. The British settled down to a non-interfering benevolent administration. The advent of Christianity filled a spiritual vacuum. India’s independence movement left them untouched. The dawn of independence increased their fear of the unknown. A violent movement for independence continued for a couple of decades. It would be useful to know how independent India tackled this problem. Shri B.K. Nehru in his Foreword to the Book said: ``It is good that Mr. Ramunny, whose knowledge of Nagaland is unrivalled, should have given us in this book, what is essentially the history of Nagaland since independence''.

Download or read book Progress and Its Impact on the Nagas written by Tezenlo Thong and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-23 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The term ’progress’ is a modern Western notion that life is always improving and advancing toward an ideal state. It is a vital modern concept which underlies geographic explorations and scientific and technological inventions as well as the desire to harness nature in order to increase human beings’ ease and comfort. With the advent of Western colonization and to the great detriment of the colonized, the notion of progress began to perniciously and pervasively permeate across cultures. This book details the impact of the notion of progress on the Nagas and their culture. The interaction between the Nagas and the West, beginning with British military conquest and followed by American missionary intrusion, has resulted in the gradual demise of Naga culture. It is almost a cliché to assert that since the colonial contact, the long evolved Naga traditional values are being replaced by Western values. Consequences are still being felt in the lack of sense of direction and confusion among the Nagas today. Just like other Indigenous Peoples, whose history is characterized by traumatic cultural turmoil because of colonial interference, the Nagas have long been engaged in self-shame, self-negation and self-sabotage.

Download or read book The Nagas written by Julian Jacobs and published by Thames & Hudson. This book was released on 1999-02-01 with total page 359 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Nagas of Northeast India, radically different in culture and beliefs from the better-known Hindu peoples of the plains, were renowned in the years before Indian independence for their fierce resistance to British rule and for their practice of head-hunting. Although sharing many social and cultural traits, the thousands of small Naga villages often vary greatly from one another, and the Nagas display both unity and diversity in their dress and ornament. Their vibrant material culture is generously illustrated here in color photographs that display textiles, basketry, jewelry, weapons, metalwork, and carvings. Drawing on a diverse range of historical materials, the authors examine how the notion of tribes came to be applied to the Nagas and point out its subsequent importance in the development of contemporary Naga nationalism.

Download or read book NAGAS written by Diego Antolini and published by TXP Publishing. This book was released on 2023-05-09 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The world in which we live, and what we perceive as physical reality, is a spectrum of frequencies within an infinite vibratory and multidimensional system. Our limit is the solidity of our conditioning, that is, the conviction that only what we touch and observe is the existing reality. Most if not all of the information about the Reptilians come from abductees, contactees, and government agents’ experiences with them. There is indeed an enormous amount of such reports, although the very existence of this race has been kept secret for millennia. In my extensive (and still ongoing) research, both on desk and on field, I have come across different versions about the origins, agenda, and features of the Reptilians, with some common points that corroborate the signs and symbols that Humans have carved in stones, or written in ancient texts, to signify how fearful and powerful these beings are. This book is based primarily on what the Ancient Texts of India told about the Nagas race, and it presents a visual evidence of that race across the millennia. A comparative analysis with other areas of the world, namely Sumeria and South America, is briefly added to give the reader an idea of how widespread the knowledge about the existence of the Reptilian race was among the cultures of the world. (From the Introduction by the author.)

Download or read book Naga Magick written by Denny Sargent and published by Original Falcon Press. This book was released on 2014-11 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Description: Serpents have always been both venerated and feared throughout the world, but perhaps none so much as the Naga in Hindu, Tantric and Buddhist traditions. What are the Naga? They are the Serpent Lords of ancient times, more akin to the Orishas of Santeria than to the remote gods of Olympus. And, like the Orishas, they are far more accessible. This is more than a mythic and historical account of the Naga. It is also a Naga 'Grimoire' of practical and spiritual rituals. Serpent spirits are seen everywhere in Asian iconography and practices, but because of the extremely ancient and 'grass roots' origin of their worship, they are only rarely mentioned in traditional religious texts. This parallels the prehistoric worship of similar serpent spirits across the ancient world in many places under many names. In most Eastern and Western animist or pantheist traditions, serpent-demigods are positive beings manifesting as spiritual guardians. Often these spirits are associated with springs, rivers, lakes and oceans as well as the numinous chthonian world below, as are the Naga. Naga wisdom has the power to enlighten us about the ancient, often forgotten serpent spirits, their magick rituals and their place in helping us to heal Nature. Whether you wish to learn the history and mythos of the Serpent Spirits, or if you wish to work directly with these luminous beings, the book provides unique access to the power and wisdom of the Naga Lords. Naga Magick includes many Illustrations and an extensive Glossary.
