A taste for beauty and a love of adventure stories motivated us to work together on this book, somewhere between a travel guide, a picture album and a diary. 'The Rivers of the Mandala' tells of the discovery of Mount Kailas, Tibet’s sacred mountain, by two young travellers following in the footsteps of their forefathers - Sven Hedin, Giuseppe Tucci, Lama Govinda - all explorers of exotic lands and of the soul, travellers in body and in mind; but the death of Simon's brother Thomas in a car accident in Afghanistan would alter his perception of the mystical nature of the regions through which they had both travelled.

Have you ever wondered what is really inside Rgveda? Do you know that apart from the names of the Devatas, Rgveda mentions hundreds of kings and sages by name? Do you know that it mentions more than 30 rivers? You may be familiar with many events in Ramayana and Mahabharata, but do you know about any interesting events mentioned in Rgveda? Most of the impressions about Rgveda are shaped by secondary information, and they seldom delve deep into the Rgvedic verses. This book is a geographical journey into Rgveda with the Rgvedic rivers as our primary guides. The book will take you through the rivers like Ganga, Yamuna, Sarasvati, Sarayu and others. You will get familiarized with many Rgvedic events like the Dasarajna Battle, Varshagira Battle and so on and get a clear picture of the chronology of events mentioned in Rgveda and its connections with Ramayana and Mahabharata.

This book is primarily about the Rgveda, the avowed source text of all Hindu religious texts. It is a collection of 1028 mostly unrelated hymns. The language in which it is composed is known as ‘Vedic’, from which Sanskrit is believed to have evolved later. About a fifth of the poems are prayers addressed to what could be ‘Nature Gods’. Others cover a motley of subjects. About fifteen of these hymns relates to cosmogony, but differing in essentials. Vedic clearly belongs to the Indo-European language family. Apart from many cognate words that are common in all these languages, many of the stories mentioned in the Rgveda have a strong resemblance to mythologies in the other languages of the family; not just to the Zoroastrian ones, but also to those of Greek, Celtic, Nordic, Slavic, Hittite and others. Origin of Vedas also discusses a wide range of issues related to the origin and expansion of the Indo-European language family. The author has managed to collect together a lot of information about the Rgveda; some of which most would not have heard about earlier. Those interested in these may go through chapter 4 and 9.

About the Book: Questions: · Can we infer the chronology of our country from our literature while applying a scientific filter to discard the myths? · Is it possible to chronicle the kings, rishis, people’s lives, their scientific progress, and literary creations, “as-it-happened”? · Is it achievable to present this information in an engaging manner that captivates individuals from high school students to retired educators?

This stunning book will take us through an intellectual journey of "Human" and "Religion". "Bharat" has a rich history, unfortunately Bharat history was written under the influence of westerns. A must read for all. Quran and Bible from the incident of Prophet "Noah" justify yug systems of Sanatan. "God" is one but called by different names. "Vedas" was send by God lakhs of years ago. God send 124000 messengers across world to eradicate evils and establish humanity. The path of different religions are different but destination is one. "Islam" was in its height during first four centuries. Latter different kings high jacked the religion and experimented it to expand territories. These days few Bhartiye Muslims have gone astray, so Allah has withdrawn his blessing which accounts for pains, struggles and humiliations. After independence Muslims has been used as a tool kit by political parties. 99.9% people living in Bharat have a common "DNA", then why to fight in the name of "Rights" and "Religion"? Fight for your "Duties". The main objective of writing this book is to bring the attentions of people towards this important topic "Who are we?

The first broad study of Japanese mandalas to appear in a Western language, this volume interprets mandalas as sanctified realms where identification between the human and the sacred occurs. The author investigates eighth- to seventeenth-century paintings from three traditions: Esoteric Buddhism, Pure Land Buddhism, and the kami-worshipping (Shinto) tradition. It is generally recognized that many of these mandalas are connected with texts and images from India and the Himalayas. A pioneering theme of this study is that, in addition to the South Asian connections, certain paradigmatic Japanese mandalas reflect pre-Buddhist Chinese concepts, including geographical concepts. In convincing and lucid prose, ten Grotenhuis chronicles an intermingling of visual, doctrinal, ritual, and literary elements in these mandalas that has come to be seen as characteristic of the Japanese religious tradition as a whole. This beautifully illustrated work begins in the first millennium B.C.E. in China with an introduction to the Book of Documents and ends in present-day Japan at the sacred site of Kumano. Ten Grotenhuis focuses on the Diamond and Womb World mandalas of Esoteric Buddhist tradition, on the Taima mandala and other related mandalas from the Pure Land Buddhist tradition, and on mandalas associated with the kami-worshipping sites of Kasuga and Kumano. She identifies specific sacred places in Japan with sacred places in India and with Buddhist cosmic diagrams. Through these identifications, the realm of the buddhas is identified with the realms of the kami and of human beings, and Japanese geographical areas are identified with Buddhist sacred geography. Explaining why certain fundamental Japanese mandalas look the way they do and how certain visual forms came to embody the sacred, ten Grotenhuis presents works that show a complex mixture of Indian Buddhist elements, pre-Buddhist Chinese elements, Chinese Buddhist elements, and indigenous Japanese elements.
