The Temple Elephant is a novel meant for all those with a young heart,a vivid imagination and a thirst for divine love.Narrated from the viewpoint of an elephant, it may be called a bestiarywith a socio-political and spiritual message. The novel opens with aneloquent description of an ancient South Indian temple in which theaged elephant, Kesavan, is serving God. As he ambles along the streetsof a temple town with the silver image of Krishna on his back, Kesavanrecalls the events of his past life. His turbulent youth and manhood inthe jungle, his capture in a keddah operation, his sufferings at the handsof his tormentors, his revenge, and finally his willing submission to theMaharishi, his guru, who not only saves him from slavery and death,but also shows him a path of love and self-surrender that eventuallybrings him to serve in an ancient temple.Set against the backdrop of the British Raj, the novel takes its readers onan odyssey from the beautiful jungles of South India through the opulenceof palace life to the serene simplicity of an ashram.

From military camels and hunting cheetahs, to herding dogs and talking mynahs, animals have been living, working, playing and performing with humans in India for centuries. In this intimate book, John Lockwood Kipling writes about animals in daily Indian life, bringing alive the sights, sounds and smells of the nineteenth century. In these tales, forty restless elephants are hoisted into a steam ship and nearly sink it; a guilty goat gets the thrashing of its life; a cheetah-keeper wakes up every night to a feline bedfellow; and a dog follows a king to heaven. Kipling describes the animal kingdom with the authority of a naturalist, paired with a sympathetic engagement with Indian culture. He narrates religious myths, traditional folktales and incidents from day-to-day life with relish, peppered with local sayings--'The Indian lover can pay his sweetheart no higher compliment than to say that she runs like a partridge.' Lavishly illustrated with Kipling's own pen-and-ink drawings, and enhanced by his son, Rudyard Kipling's verse, The Elephant in the Temple offers a fascinating glimpse of a time when birds and animals used to 'come and go at their own pleasure, and rub shoulders with humanity.' This wittily written book is a delight for aficionados of Indian history and animal lovers everywhere.

Elephant Hued is a beautiful flight into a metaphysical yet realistic world, following the story of the distressed protagonist who has been inexplicably separated from their lovable companion, Kuttan. Whilst grieving and waiting for his return, they reminisce about the past, about the love and warmth they shared. Juxtaposed between the beauty of traditional Kerala, the urban high rises of Bangalore, and other scenic locations scattered throughout South India, Elephant Hued shifts continually between the bleak present and the nostalgic past. Day-to-day life is a struggle, a struggle outshone by moments of compassion, dissolving into nature, cryptic cathartic dreams and wholesome encounters with mystical animals. A crocodile that teaches you how to swim, a midnight ritual at a temple, an intimate meeting on an ocean of lily pads and a falling meteor. A gripping story with a playful informality woven in with subtle spiritual metaphors—exploring themes of love, separation and soul-searching.
