Book excerpt: A post-apocalyptic world laid barren due to climate change - the earth is a wounded residue of nothingness and the skies worn out and threadbare. As meagre always gives rise to plunder and pillage, a fringe group rises to power. From broken pieces, devastating stories and ravaged ruins, heroes emerge and unite. Each one distinct in making, hell bent on exercising their claim to the land that was! When it appeared that survival wasn't going to last very long, and everything was wearing thin - both supplies and the will to fight - the foraging scientists discover a preserved future, untainted and unexplored - a rebirth. LOKA AWAKENS The dawn of a New Earth!

Download or read book Dying Death and Bereavement in a British Hindu Community written by Shirley Firth and published by Peeters Publishers. This book was released on 1997 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study is an exploration of the religious beliefs, attitudes, traditions and rituals of a British hindu community, with respect to dying, death and bereavement. The observations of this community are compared with material obtained during three months of fieldwork in India and ethnographic sources. The primary focus of this study is on individual Hindus, seen in the context of their family and community: their beliefs, experiences and perceptions about death, and their reactions to the changes that take place. It also examines the process of adaptation and change in the death rituals and the role of the pandits in maintaining continuity. The first part of this study sets the context, introducing the issues confronting Hindus facing death and bereavement in Britain. It discusses theoretical issues in a multicultural study as well as beliefs about death and life after death. In the second part, Hindu ritual practices around death are explored, using a model of nine stages from preparation for death to the final post-mortem and annual ancestral rituals. The third part explores the social and psychological dimensions of death, grief and mourning, the implications of death in hospital and the professional and bureaucratic issues which affect Hindu deaths in Britain. The social aspects of mourning are discussed, with reference to pollution, the role of the family and community, young people and widows. Finally, the author examines the implications of social changes for British Hindus and for those who are involved with them in the caring professions.
Download or read book Performative Reflections of Indian Traditions written by D. Venkat Rao and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-09-30 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on the cohering elements across various texts and traditions of India. It engages with several significant works from the Sanskrit tradition and emphasizes the need to move beyond colonial and postcolonial engagements with the enduring cultural pasts of India. The chapters are grouped in three main parts: accented rhythms, dispersed mnemoscapes and inventive iterations. It addresses questions such as: what enabled cultural communication across very divergent geographical, temporal, locational contexts and among different cultural formations of India over millennia? What is this shareable impulse that pulsates across the domains of dance, sculpture, painting, poetry, dharma, music, medicine, the lore of rivers and the epics? It explains how modern Indian languages and especially their creative and reflective nodes are unthinkable without the intricately woven textures of these interfaces and their responsive receptions. This book is of interest to philosophers, humanities students, researchers and professors as well as people interested in exploring alternatives to European traditions of thought without an alibi.

Download or read book Thinking the Re Thinking of the World written by Kai Kresse and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2022-12-19 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As far too many intellectual histories and theoretical contributions from the ‘global South’ remain under-explored, this volume works towards redressing such imbalance. Experienced authors, from the regions concerned, along different disciplinary lines, and with a focus on different historical timeframes, sketch out their perspectives of envisaged transformations. This includes specific case studies and reflexive accounts from African, South Asian, and Middle Eastern contexts. Taking a critical stance on the ongoing dominance of Eurocentrism in academia, the authors present their contributions in relation to current decolonial challenges. Hereby, they consider intellectual, practical and structural aspects and dimensions, to mark and build their respective positions. From their particular vantage points of (trans)disciplinary and transregional engagement, they sketch out potential pathways for addressing the unfinished business of conceptual decolonization. The specific individual positionalities of the contributors, which are shaped by location and regional perspective as much as in disciplinary, biographical, linguistic, religious, and other terms, are hereby kept in view. Drawing on their significant experiences and insights gained in both the global north and global south, the contributors offer original and innovative models of engagement and theorizing frames that seek to restore and critically engage with intellectual practices from particular regions and transregional contexts in Africa, South Asia, and the Middle East. This volume builds on a lecture series held at ZMO in the winter 2019-2020
Download or read book Creation of the Universe written by Srikanth s and published by Srikanth s. This book was released on with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Important modern scientific truths lie hidden in the highly colourful and symbolical language of the Vedas. Brahma does not mean the theological object of worship, but, it means ‘atomic state which pervades in 58 digits’. The ancients measured distances not even in astronomical light years that proved inadequate, but, in number of digits. ‘Hiranyaksha’ should not be taken as a demon. It indicates ‘gravitational power of the molten matter inside the earth’. Dhaataa or ‘Brahmaa’ is a star standing at a distance of 39 digits and Sarasvatee is its cosmic energy. The Universe as a whole is contracting. The Earth began to cool 1,000,000,000,000 (1 followed by 12-zeroes) years ago. Universe will go on contracting till it finally collapses in 33 digits of years according to our planet. “Om” is not a mere sound but an actual cosmic state which comes into being, when at the initial stage the three Gunas of Prakriti give rise by their interaction to the four states of matter called the charges, atomic, molecule and particle states, and consequently has dimensions like a concrete substance. Gods are stars with supernatural powers, such as the cosmic rays, attraction, repulsion etc. Shiva and Paarvattee are the names given to the spiritual and material aspects.

About Shree Rama Rajya Parishad: Shree Rama Rajya Parishad urges Hindu Jana to accept Bhagwan Mansha (wisdom) to have diversity and distribution of Guna (gifts and skills. It motivates Hindu Jana to grow up to be Shishu Praudha (adult children) of Bhagwan. As Praudha, they will not only take care of themselves but also help Muka (mute), Akantha (voiceless), and Vidhura (helpless). It supports a free-market economy. And accept inequality due to diversity and inequality of skills. Parishad believes in an elected civilian government with limited-term dictatorial powers. Their primary roles would be to maintain Dharma (law and order), Samanta (fairness), and act as managers of the public resources; passing new laws and regulations would be their secondary role.
