"Tying the Knot", a western phrase for getting married, has been a standard part of the Hindu weddings for thousands of years. These rituals involve "binding" the couple with various knots; physically, mentally and spiritually. "Tying the Knot" may appear to be a simple procedure but getting there requires a lot of thorough planning and excellent management. The Hindu Weddings, especially in western countries, are a fusion of multiple cultures, religions, races, traditions and customs. Add to that the intergenerational differences! To make a beautiful Hindu wedding happen requires a great balancing of all those factors and bridging of different views and approaches between all the parties involved. In addition to the couple and the parents, it takes a tremendous number of dedicated people to conduct a successful wedding! In this book, the author, a pragmatic Hindu priest, discusses his unique perspectives of how to officiate a perfect wedding ceremony and plan other events suitable to modern demographics in a practical and in an all-inclusive way based on his more than 20 years of experience. In this book, the parents are first generation Indians, born and brought up in India but now settled in the US. The bride, groom, or both are second generation Indians, born and raised in the western culture. Their parents may come from different parts of the world, may have different cultures, different customs, traditions, and even different faiths. Unlike their parents who were most likely married by arranged marriage system, the present brides and the grooms have found their own partners with whom they want to tie the knot by traditional Hindu rituals but custom tailored to their views and their audience. Many Hindu priests, very proficient in wedding rituals, conduct the weddings in the traditional Hindu way. Those ceremonies may lack the formality or discipline required for the present day demographics in the western cultural setting. Although full of depth and spirituality, these ceremonies may be too regional, too long and yes, some times non-interesting, allowing socialization among the guests throughout the ceremony. That is why, the couple, the parents and the priests need a practical guide on how to work together to conduct the most beautiful Hindu wedding in any part of the world. This book offers exactly that guide with a systematic approach, from planning to completion, based on the author's experience of officiating more than 175 ceremonies in America and elsewhere and the feedback from the couples, parents, wedding planners and attending guests. The author's custom ceremonies still include all the authentic rituals but he delivers them in an interesting, logical, and meaningful way by creatively connecting with the attendees. This results in a pin-drop silence, serenity and sanctity that your wedding ceremony deserves. He focuses not just on the ceremony but also discusses the Hindu philosophy behind those rituals. This book should be helpful to the engaged couples, their parents, wedding planners, invited guests and anybody else who is interested in Hindu Weddings.

Showing how spiritual care is practiced in a variety of different contexts such as healthcare, detention and higher education, as well as settings that may not have formal chaplaincy arrangements, this book offers an original and unique resource for Hindu chaplains to understand and practice spiritual care in a way that is authentic to their own tradition and that meets the needs of Hindus. It offers a Hindu perspective for all chaplains to inform their caregiving to Hindus. The book explores the theological and metaphysical roots of Hindu chaplaincy and puts forward the case for Hindu chaplaincy as a valuable spiritual practice. It covers the issues that arise in specific locations, such as college, healthcare, prison, military and the corporate sector. Chapters also examine Hindu pastoral care offered in other, 'non-chaplaincy' settings, such as LGBT centres, social justice work and environmental activism. Made up of some 30 essays by chaplains, scholars and other important voices in the field, Hindu Approaches to Spiritual Care provides spiritual caregivers with a comprehensive theoretical and practical approach to the relationship of Hinduism and chaplaincy.

A ground-breaking look at the sexual revolution that is beginning to sweep through urban India. The National Bestseller India in Love: Marriage and Sexuality in the 21st Century is a ground-breaking look at the sexual revolution that is starting to sweep through urban India. Bestselling author Ira Trivedi travelled from Shilling in the northeast to Chennai in the south, Konark in the east to Mumbai in the west and over a dozen other cities and towns in order to gain unprecedented insights into changing sexual habits, marriage and love everywhere in the country. The book explores the mating habits of young Indians on college campuses and in offices, examines the new face of Indian pornography and prostitution, probes India's gay revolution and delves into history, economics and sociology to try and understand how the nation that gave the world the Kamasutra could have become a closed, repressed society with a shockingly high incidence of rape and violence against women the dark underside to the greater sexual freedom that men and women in our cities have begun to enjoy today. Trivedi goes deep into one of the most enduring institutions of Indian society marriage and investigates how it is faring in modern times. She interviews marriage brokers, astrologers, lawyers, relationship counsellors, 'love commandos', parents and nervous young brides and grooms, amongst others, to present a nuanced picture of the state of marriage in the country. She discovers that love marriages are skyrocketing and even the age-old arranged marriage is undergoing a transformation. Also on the rise are divorces, extra-marital affairs, open marriages, live-in-relationships and the like. Supporting her eye-opening reportage with hundreds of interviews, detailed research, authoritative published surveys and discussions with experts on various aspects of sexuality and marriage, Trivedi has written a book that is often startling, sometimes controversial, but is always entertaining and original.
