| vijayadasami: The Cult of Draupadi, Volume 2 Alf Hiltebeitel, 1988 This is the first volume of a projected three-volume work on the little-known South Indian folk cult of the goddess Draupadi and on the classical epic, the Mahabharata, that the cult brings to life in mythic, ritual, and dramatic forms. Draupadi, the chief heroine of the Sanskrit Mahabharata, takes on many unexpected guises in her Tamil cult, but her dimensions as a folk goddess remain rooted in a rich interpretive vision of the great epic. By examining the ways that the cult of Draupadi commingles traditions about the goddess and the epic, Alf Hiltebeitel shows the cult to be singularly representative of the inner tensions and working dynamics of popular devotional Hinduism. |

| vijayadasami: Gods, Heroes and their Story Tellers V. Hari Saravanan, 2014-01-01 We can hear Urumula Naganna’s drum roll during the rendition of the Sri Akammagaru Kaviya. An oral tradition which is as old as the hills is captured in the book Gods, Heroes and their Storytellers. Do you know the story of how the Madiga community came to inherit the right to skin cattle carcass and produce leather articles? How are contemporary Folk Oral Literatures connected to the Ramayana and the Mahabharata? There are many such stories and tradition bearers who doggedly go on in spite of the onslaught of the digital media. The author here has tried his best in keeping these traditions alive by not only telling the stories but also by living with the story tellers themselves. The rich details give us a window to a world which is not only very far away for our everyday mundane existence but also makes us retrospect on what we are missing out. Each of the tradition bearers are different and so are their stories and the region to which they belong. These are not merely stories but a way of life for these oral narrators who are fast disappearing in today’s consumerist landscape. The need of the hour is to keep alive these traditions and the tradition bearers. |
| vijayadasami: Classic Cuisine and Celebrations of the Thanjavur Maharashtrians Jaishri P. Rao, 2019-04-29 Did you know legends have it that sambhar originated in the Royal Kitchen of the Thanjavur Maharashtrian Kings? Did you know that poli, pitla, rasa vaangi and daangar were introduced to Thanjavur by a small diaspora of the Maharashtrian immigrants to this province? The Thanjavur Maharashtrian Desastha community, whose origins can be traced to the latter half of the 17th Century, are known for their immense contribution in fostering cuisine, arts, music and literature. Classic Cuisine and Celebrations of the Thanjavur Maharashtrians introduces the reader to the foods and festivities of this diaspora. It also provides an introduction to the pujas, when and how they are performed, with a lot of interesting trivia. Festivals and food go hand in hand. The first part of the book features recipes for the naivedyas, while the second part is devoted to the signature recipes of the Desasthas. It features more than a hundred and fifty recipes ranging from fluffy pooran polis and crunchy ambodes, to a medley of modaks, varieties of mixed rice, kheers, traditional sweets, snacks, chutneys, powders, curries, sambhars and rasams. They contain no onion or garlic and are sattvik in nature. This book is an effort to encourage young home makers to revive traditions they grew up with, to help them relive their festive experiences during their childhood and introduce their children to it. “…As a person in the 8th decade of my life, reading this book gave me happy memories of my own childhood and the various dishes which I enjoyed in my youth particularly cooked by my mother…” “…The book has been written in a very reader-friendly manner so that for every festival, the complete set of dishes are described and various options are so beautifully explained that the recipes themselves may act as a trigger for every person to try her/his own creativity on the culinary front…” “…The colourful photographs enhance the value of the book and literally can lead to mouth-watering anticipation...” – Padma Bhushan N. Vittal (Retd) Central Vigilance Commissioner |

| vijayadasami: Sivakami's Vow 4: Shattered Dream Kalki, 2023-09-18 To meditate lifelong at the feet of our lord-Kalki's choice of Thirunavukkarasar's words to end his magnum opus, Sivakami's Vow, is indicative of the shift from romance to reflection, from the mundane to the spiritual. Nine years have passed since Narasimha Varmar has ascended the throne to the Pallava kingdom ... nine years that the dancer Sivakami has spent as a captive of the Chalukya emperor, Pulikesi. In that time, the Pallava emperor has been preparing to wage a bloody war against the Chalukyas-to fulfil his promise to Sivakami and his father. But the duties of a sovereign have driven him to make difficult choices in his personal life. Will friendships and allegiances change on account of this? With the passage of so much time, does Sivakami still yearn for vengeance? And what have the last nine years meant for the Pallava commander-in-chief, Paranjyothi, and the conniving bikshu, Naganandi? As Kalki expertly weaves together various strands of honour, love and friendship in this fourth and final volume of Sivakami's Vow, he takes the reader through a gamut of emotions. It is no surprise that this novel is considered a classic. |

| vijayadasami: A Ved Mehta Reader Ved Mehta, 1998-01-01 Unsurpassed as a prose stylist, Ved Mehta is an acknowledged master of the essay form. In this book--the first special collection of Mehta`s outstanding writings--the distinguished author demonstrates a wide range of possibilities available to the narrative and descriptive writer today. Addressing subjects that range from religion to politics and on to education, and writing with eloquence and high style, Mehta here offers a sampling of his works. Mehta provides a splendid, insightful introduction on the craft of the essay, meditating on the long history and diverse purposes of the form and on the struggle of learning to write in it himself. In the eight reportorial, autobiographical, and reflective essays that follow--each a self-contained examination of cultural, intellectual, or personal themes--he writes on his experience of becoming an American citizen; on Christian theology, with a focus on Dietrich Bonhoeffer; on Calcutta and the poorest of the Indian poor; on the disastrous fates of three of Mehta`s brilliant Oxford contemporaries; and on a variety of other subjects. |
| vijayadasami: The Essential Ved Mehta Ved Mehta, 2014-12-01 This definitive collection of Ved Mehta’s work contains excerpts from nearly all his writings, many of which first appeared in the New Yorker. It begins with his first book, the classic autobiography highlighting his blindness, Face to Face, and features his iconic books about India and his family saga, Continents of Exile. Each entry comes with a reflection by Mehta. Authoritative and illuminating, the book is not just an introduction to this seminal author but also a passionate record of a writer looking back upon his own work. |

Rajavijayan is on the run for his physical freedom - he is wanted by the police in both Sri Lanka and India. CUTS goes through his life's radical changes working in the tea gardens of Nepal and his path to spiritual freedom under the guidance of a botanist-turned-sanyasi in the Himalayan foothills of Mount Kanchenjunga. |

| vijayadasami: The Oxford Handbook of Asian Philosophies in Music Education C. Victor Fung, Professor of Music Education C Victor Fung, Associate Professor of Music Leonard Tan, Leonard Tan, 2024-07-19 This volume focuses on the collective wisdom of Asian philosophies and their implications for music education. All twenty chapters are written by highly regarded philosophers and music educators steeped in various Asian traditions. These chapters will include an explanation of a prominent philosophical tradition, evidence in a contemporary music teaching and learning settings (including its inception and historical development along with an explanation of how the philosophical tradition works in contemporary music education), and suggestions for potential directions in the near and distant future. The book is organized into five sections. Section I is based on Chinese philosophical traditions, which have the longest history and are some of the most influential across Asia and beyond. Chapters in Section II present a snapshot of Japanese and Korean views, beginning with the musical practices in the Joseon Period (1392-1910) that are still being practiced in South Korea today to Western influences in 19th century Japan. A collection of philosophical traditions from South and Southeast Asia are contained in Section III, ranging from the insights of King Bhumibol Adulyadej, King Rama IX of Thailand, an accomplished jazz musician, to the Balinese notion of taksu, a form of supreme energy and divine power crucial for compelling performances in the performing arts. We venture into the Islamic and the Middle Eastern world in Section IV, where the dance practices of the Hadhrami Arabs in the Malay Archipelago to traditional sharah music are contextualized within Islamic philosophy. This section also describes the philosophical ideas of the 12th-century Persian philosopher and founder of the Illuminationist (Ishraq) philosophy, Shihab al-Din al-Suhrawardi, arguing that his ideas have much to recommend music education, as this approach requires students to listen in deeper ways, absorb more abundantly, and move beyond arts education to encompass the education of the whole person. Section V concludes with a metaphorical view on a New Silk Road in music education in the 21st century, where ideas are traded for mutual benefit and the development multicultural philosophies of music education. While there are numerous publications on the philosophy of music education rooted in the Western philosophical traditions of ancient Greece, the Asian philosophical voice is virtually silent outside of Asia, and this volume aims to begin the long process of redressing this imbalance. This volume will open readers to the richness of Asian philosophical sources and hopefully stimulate dialogues that could generate new insights and directions for further development, cross-pollination, and application of some of the world's earliest philosophical traditions. |
| vijayadasami: Living Banaras Bradley R. Hertel, Cynthia Ann Humes, 1993-03-24 By focusing on contemporary popular religious traditions, the book represents a substantial contribution to the study of modern religious practices in Banaras, holy city of India. This book offers in-depth, ethnographic views of many contemporary popular religious practices that have, for the most part, received little attention by scholars. Topics covered include the Ramlila celebrations, devotion to Hanuman, and goddess worship, and the way that Banarsi Boli, the local dialect of Banaras, supports its users in their identification with the sacred city. |

Biology’s prodigious endowment to life! Nature’s enduring gift to all living beings! How do we heal our wounds most of the time? And, why do we fail sometimes? In his book Full moons many more Subramoniam Rangaswami explores the many facets of healing – from its catastrophic breakdown to the most unexpected and miraculous expression – in several real-life stories narrated with style, humor and almost mystical fervor. Sure to keep the reader spellbound. How does the ‘uncertain art’ of Medicine wrestle with the staggering complexities of the three and a half billion year-old phenomenon? We learn from uncle Sankaran in the story (who has seen a thousand full moons!) that in the final analysis, it is our efforts to bring ‘cosmic wisdom’ in perfect alignment with ‘local fitness’ that help complete our journey of healing. |
| vijayadasami: Music of Existence Mohan Kambampati, 2020-02-03 This memoir unfolds human drama. It is a powerful and emotional story of one family's emigration from India to the United States. It depicts the cultural differences, lessons learned and current learnings, struggles and rewards and pleasures and pains, punctuated with some fascinating and amusing lifestyles in India. A reader will get a glimpse of Indian festivals, it's philosophy, it's traditions, and its ideals. This is also a story of human emotions, psyche, character, and integrity. This book reveals a husband's/father's struggles and successes, his copious optimism, his emotions and predicaments and him steering his life and the life of his wife and sons through many obstacles. Just as music conveys emotions like sadness, happiness, anger, tension and release of it, this memoir conveys the same emotion. Hence Music of Existence. ************************************** I liked that the author writes in straightforward manner. He includes his flaws and regrets along the way. The author opens up about many mistakes he made along the way in many areas of his life. His achievements shine though, yet it is through the revelation of his oversights that the work becomes realistic as his life experiences offer incredible learning points. I also appreciated the many instances in the memoir where the author includes information about the history and culture of the Indian people. The writer acknowledges the strengths of each culture and time period aspects. Music of Existence by Mohan Kambampati is an inspiring read that reveals the imperfection of its characters and also their fortitude as they face life's hurdles. --EmunahAn, On Line Bookclub Readers interested in memoirs that document life-affirming revelations and interactions will relish the broader scope and perspective of Music of Existence. --Diane Donovan, Midwest Book Review What is so special and unique of this memoir is unlike most of the other autobiographies this is not all about the author himself. He talks about his home country, India. Their travels in part of rural India and their disappointment at seeing the village life getting changed so much and the loss of old places. --Arpan Ghosh (Book Blogger) |

| vijayadasami: Rethinking India's Oral and Classical Epics Alf Hiltebeitel, 2009-02-15 Throughout India and Southeast Asia, ancient classical epics—the Mahabharata and the Ramayana—continue to exert considerable cultural influence. Rethinking India's Oral and Classical Epics offers an unprecedented exploration into South Asia's regional epic traditions. Using his own fieldwork as a starting point, Alf Hiltebeitel analyzes how the oral tradition of the south Indian cult of the goddess Draupadi and five regional martial oral epics compare with one another and tie in with the Sanskrit epics. Drawing on literary theory and cultural studies, he reveals the shared subtexts of the Draupadi cult Mahabharata and the five oral epics, and shows how the traditional plots are twisted and classical characters reshaped to reflect local history and religion. In doing so, Hiltebeitel sheds new light on the intertwining oral traditions of medieval Rajput military culture, Dalits (former Untouchables), and Muslims. Breathtaking in scope, this work is indispensable for those seeking a deeper understanding of South Asia's Hindu and Muslim traditions. This work is the third volume in Hiltebeitel's study of the Draupadi cult. Other volumes include Mythologies: From Gingee to Kuruksetra (Volume One), On Hindu Ritual and the Goddess (Volume Two), and Rethinking the Mahabharata (Volume Four). |

Temples have always been an integral part of the culture and tradition of Kerala. This small state has become famous for its efforts to preserve the ancient culture of the big temples as well as the small family shrines, keeping their rich variety and tradition intact. These temples play an important role in spreading the greatness of Kerala in countries all over the world. Temples of Kerala have never been mere places of worship; they have played a pivotal role in the social, financial, cultural and educational fields of the state. For the rehabilitation of the poor and the deprived many schemes have been implemented by the temples like providing food and shelter to the needy. Today, if there is a great progress in the field of tourism, the temples have certainly contributed much to it. A large number of foreigners come to the state to study and understand Kerala’s traditional temple arts like Kathakali, Chakiarkoothu, Ottamthullal etc. On the happy occasion of bringing out this book, we have endeavored to include details of the prominent Ayyappan temples outside Kerala, along with those of the great temples within the state.

| vijayadasami: Fiddler in the Zoo Chrysostom Arangaden, 2011-12-06 There is a celestial violinist playing to us; we need only listen to catch the tune and break free of the cage of ecclesiastical creeds and dogmas. In Fiddler in the Zoo author and theologian Chrysostom Arangaden reminds us that knowledge is our destiny and that its dissemination offers no barrier. He invites us to explore the traditional beliefs that bind us, as he inspires us to be reborn into the glorious liberty of the children of God. Arangadens work follows the words of Bengali poet Rabindranath Tagore in GitanjaliWhere the mind is without fear and where knowledge is free as the charter for humans everywhere. In the chapter Bible through the Looking Glass he journeys beyond the Scriptures as they are written, seeking deeper meaning and interpretation. In Revelation and Reason, he gently nudges us into a renewed search, not for happinessas happiness can only be a by-productbut for that elusive something that can encourage us to strive against and triumph over evil, both that within us and that beyond our control. Today, people in circumstances that are vastly different from ancient Galileewhether they are fishermen or physicists, artisans or astronomersare invited to listen to Jesus in joy or sorrow and to learn from Him. Arangaden shares his insight into the beauty of Christianity offering a guide to living and a call to the fullness of life. |
| vijayadasami: Hinduism and the Religious Arts Heather Elgood, 2000-04-01 The roots between the Hindu religion and the wider culture are deep and uniquely complex. No study of either ancient or contemporary Indian culture can be undertaken without a clear understanding of Hindu visual arts and their sources in religious belief and practice. Defining what is meant by religion - no such term exists in Sanskrit - and what is understood by Hindu ideals of beauty, Heather Elgood provides the best synthesis and critical study of recent scholarship on the topic. In addition, this book offers critical background information for anyone interested in the social and anthropological roots of artistic creativity, as well as the rites, practices and beliefs of the hundreds of millions of Hindus in the world today. |
