Thanks to current portrayals of Jesus of Nazareth, we are apt to think of him as having long hair and a short beard. But, the holy scriptures do not describe Christ’s physiognomy, and his representations are inconsistent in early Christian and medieval arts. How did this long-haired archetype come to be accepted in the late ninth century as the standard iconography of the Son of God? To answer this question, The Many Faces of Christ examines the complex historical and cultural dynamics underlying the making and final establishment of Christ’s image between late antiquity and the early Renaissance. Taking into account a broad spectrum of iconographic and textual sources, Michele Bacci describes the process of creating Christ’s image against the backdrop of ancient and biblical conceptions of beauty and physicality as indicators of moral, ascetic, or messianic qualities. He investigates the increasingly dominant role played by visual experience in Christian religious practice, which promoted belief in the existence of ancient documents depicting Christ’s appearance, and he shows how this resulted in the shaping of portrait-like images that were said to be true to life. With glances at analogous progressions in the Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, Hindu, Jain, and Taoist traditions, this beautifully illustrated book will be of interest to specialists of Late Antique, Byzantine, and medieval studies, as well as anyone interested in the shifting, controversial conceptions of the historical figure of Jesus Christ.

Started in 1958, Sanathana Sarathi is a monthly magazine devoted to Sathya (Truth), Dharma (Righteousness), Shanti (Peace) and Prema (Love) - the four cardinal principles of Bhagawan Baba's philosophy. It is published from Prasanthi Nilayam (the Abode of Highest Peace) and acts as a mouthpiece of Baba's Ashram as it speaks of the important events that take place in His sacred Abode, besides carrying Divine Messages conveyed through Divine Discourses of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. The word meaning of Sanathana Sarathi is the 'Eternal Charioteer'. It signifies the presence of the Lord in every being as the atma guiding their lives like a charioteer. It implies that he who places his life, the body being likened to a chariot, in an attitude of surrender in the hands of the Lord, will be taken care of by the Lord even as a charioteer would take the occupant of his chariot safely to its destination. The magazine is an instrument to disseminate spiritual knowledge for the moral, physical and mental uplift of humanity without any discrimination as the subject matter discussed therein is always of common interest and of universal appeal. The fifteen Vahinis - streams of sacredness - known as the Vahini Series comprising annotation and interpretation of the Upanishads and other scriptures, Itihasas like the Ramayana, the Bhagavatha and the Mahabharata, and authentic explanations on Dhyana, Dharma, Prema, etc., have been serially published in this magazine as and when they emanated from the Divine pen of Bhagawan Baba. This magazine is published in almost all Indian languages, English and Telugu from Prasanthi Nilayam and others from respective regions. Every year Sanathana Sarathi comes out with a special issue in November commemorating the Divine Birthday. The English and Telugu magazines are posted on the 10th and 23rd respectively, of every month, from Prasanthi Nilayam. This magazine has wide, ever increasing circulation in India as well as abroad, as the study of it brings the reader closer to the philosophy of the Avatar in simple understandable language THUS SPAKE SAI... Discoursing during the launch of Sanathana Sarathi... From this day, our Sanathana Sarathi will lead to victory the cohorts of truth - the Vedas, the Sastras and similar scriptures of all faiths, against the forces of the ego such as injustice, falsehood, immorality and cruelty. This is the reason why it has emerged. This Sarathi will fight in order to establish world prosperity. It is bound to sound the paean of triumph when universal Ananda is achieved.

To Believe or Not to Believe? You aren't the first to grapple with the question of belief in God. The vast number of different religions already tell us that humans have been grasping at the divine from the very beginning. This alone speaks to the existence of God. All humans have an innate desire for something, an emptiness that longs for fulfillment. Filling this void with worldly desires like riches, power, and sensual pleasures might distract you for a little while, but it's ultimately unfulfilling. It comes down to two choices. First, you can trust in human's limited knowledge of religions, philosophies, ‘isms,’ and many others that were made by humans looking for answers. But this reasoning can only go so far because it starts with itself and ends with itself. The second option is to lean not on your understanding but on God. Many skeptics equate trust in religion to a rejection of logic or reason. But belief in God doesn't mean you aren't using sense. Seeking God can open your eyes and grant you wisdom (Psalm 119:18, Proverbs 8 ). While there are many reasons to put your faith in God, here are some compelling reasons we must believe. God of Tactics VS. God of Ethics Focusing on the world’s third-largest religion, followed by a one billion-plus population. It brings forth stories, ideas, and philosophies, its societal formation, culture, and the main tenets of Hindu philosophies: Dharma, Kama, Karma, and Moksha. The author has not used this book to make a comparative study of other religions but rather focused on Sanatan ideas only. Para Brahma Tattva (God's Particle / Higgs Boson) Truth is found in his various manifestations that have been covered in simple Leelas (God’s stories). Shiva and Sri Krishna are the two Hindu Gods being discussed here. This book will help the younger generation across the globe to know their religion and heritage and is highly recommended for reading by them, their parents, families, and friends. To understand Space, Time, Matter, and Multiple Universes concepts in Sanatan Dharma, you must read this book. In this 75th year of India’s Independence, also called Amrit Kal, this is the author’s gift to the great nation of India, also called Bharat. Why so many Gods? Who is Supreme? Who should we pray to? Vedas define 33 koti (category) of Gods, which Sanskrit to English language translations made this ‘koti/ category’ to crore and started saying 33 crore devi and devtas; it should be 33 categories. The 33 categories of gods are calculated as eight Vasus, eleven Rudras (different forms of Shiva), twelve Adityas (different forms of Vishnu), one Indra, and one Prajapati (Brahma). This adds up to 33. The Prism Theory to Understand Why So Many Faiths and Gods Globally To make you understand better, the author has formed a theory named - The Prism Theory. This is Copyright of the author Sharad Mohan. His Interpretation of Para Brahma (One God Tattva) satisfying various distinct manifestations and incarnations is used as an analogy to understand why Sanatan Dharma (loosely referred to as Hinduism) has so many gods & goddesses and how they are all the same eventually. Para Brahma is like a White light falling on the Prism (Puranas) and then dividing it into Seven distinct lights: VIBGYOR. V = Vishnu (Krishna), I = Ishwar (Shiva), B = Brahma, G = Ganesh, Y = Youvanaakarayai (Adi- Shakti), O = Omkar-Pranav Guru (Karthikey) or even Others (Any Deity/Any Faith/No Faith), R = Ravi (Surya). These 7-colors represent not only 7 primary Deities as mentioned above, also 7-primary sects within Sanatan. (Vaishnavites, Shaivites, Saktas, Ganapatyas, Kumaras, Suryas, and Others (Cahrvakas, Jainism, Buddhism, Atheism, Rationalism Various Indigenous Tribals beliefs around the World, etc). Now, within these colors, only Three are Primary colors. 1. Red = Rudra (Arupa - Plasma Gaseous State - Sadashiv), 2. Yellow = Parvati (Rupaarupa – Liquid State - Adi Shakti), and 3. Blue = Nilesh (Swaarupa - Solid State -Sri Krishna / Sri Ram / Vishnu). Now, when the VIBGYOR is passed through another inverted Prism (Vedas), it again becomes a single White light (Para Brahma). Para Brahma is a particle very similar to God’s particle, and from this, Hindus believe that their multiple gods (manifestations/incarnations/Avatar come from. So, primarily the same Para Brahma element but for different names. The above theory can also apply to all the existing ‘ism,’ be it Atheism, Rationalism, Sanatan Dharma, Abrahamic religions, or Wokeism. In addition, it can fit into any other views that may come from the 8.4 million living organisms on this planet. This is a lovely book for students, non-Hindus, Sanatanis, Researchers, Politicians, and Business folks to know more about the “only” ancient living civilization country and its people: India, the emerging geo-political important democracy. Already 5th largest economy in GDP terms, the largest population of 1.45 billion folks, and still believes in Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam; meaning the entire world is one big family. Do read and share with friends and family. – Author Sharad Mohan, USA. X:@SharadAuthor

RECOVERY OF INDIA presents a holistic view of the country's unmatched tradition, its growth through centuries of chequered history vis-à-vis its present struggle to rediscover its incomparably rich legacy in a world of cut-throat competition and mind-boggling speed of rat race that seems to run from nowhere to nowhere. In the giddy tumble caused by IT Era gargantuan gadgetry and the confusion generated by disordered aimlessness, nobody has the time or inclination to reflect on the whys and wherefores of a world gone topsy-turvy. In this scenario of clouded wits and maverick ambition churned by illimitable lust for Mammonism, advanced nations are turning towards India in the fond hope of finding spiritual solace and the right direction for moving towards a higher order of civilization. The author intends to help non-Indians adopt what is healthy while urging his compatriots to restore India’s primeval psycho-spiritual health to its pristine glory.

From T.S. Eliot to Bede Griffiths, many a Christian thinker has found in the Bhagavad Gita a source of genuine spiritual insight and inspiration. As Christians continue to explore the text in a spirit of dialogue, new points of theological interest are discovered and new insights gained into the meaning and importance of the text for Christian thought and practice. In this collection of Christian commentaries on the Bhagavad Gita, Christian theologians and scholars of Hinduism offer a variety of different perspectives on the text using a diversity of commentarial approaches and styles, from close textual analysis and exegetical comparison to a more general theological reflection on the text, from comparison of the Gita with a particular Christian classic to a focus on specific religious categories such as detachment, incarnation and eschatology. While some contributions focus mainly on the similarities between Christian thought and the Gita, others also engage differences in a mutually critical and constructive way. Each of these commentaries thus offers a distinctive lens through which Christians may read the Bhagavad Gita, and points to the endless possibility and promise of inter-religious hermeneutics, or the religious reading of a sacred text from another religious tradition.

The reason for writing this book is because of God's irrefutable love for the people of India through His only Begotten son, Jesus Christ. This book explores the records of archeology, history of migration, language, and religion of Hinduism, and the findings are astonishing in that it is not what we normally expect. The author described the character and attributes of the six major Hindu deities: Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva, Indra, Krishna, and Rama as written in the ancient sacred Vedic Hindu texts: Rig Veda, Samaveda, Yajur (Black and White) Vedas, Atharva Veda, Upanishads, Bhagavad Gita, Ramayana, Mahabharata, and the Puranas, and they are definitely not as common beliefs or rumors passed down from generation to generation. A comparison is made with the character and attributes of God as described in the Christian Bible. Similarly, the author explores the origin of Hinduism's major doctrines: Krishna's claims, the Samsara cycle, Trimurti, avatars, dharma, self-realizations, renunciation of and freedom from attachments, yogic meditation, demonic possession, and minor doctrines like worship, idol worship, sin, death incarnation, castes, hell, curses, women, astrology, etc. as found in the ancient sacred Vedic texts as mentioned above and compared them with the theology, doctrines, and practices as found in the Christian Bible.
