Poet, weaver, mystic, saint, Shah Hussein created a stir in sixteenth-century Punjab through his unconventional lifestyle and the subversive power of his poetry. Popularly known as Madho Lal Hussein, after he adopted the name of his young lover and disciple, he remains a beguiling, enigmatic figure: a firebrand whose growing fame was a cause of anxiety for the political elite, a Muslim who fell in love with a Hindu boy and won his heart and devotion, a rebel philosopher who found solace in ignominy. Deceptively simple and astonishingly relevant, the poems in this magnificent collection are charged with longing, and offer insight into the true nature of love and death, desire and sublimation. Naveed Alam’s lilting translation brings out the verve and allure of Hussein’s verses which continue to be sung and recited over 400 years after his death.

Shah Hussain also known as Madhu Lal Hussain is a gem of Punjabi literature He first time used classical genre of kafi- stanza having four lines in each poem . Born in 1539 A.D. in the Walled City of Lahore he was special in his love for Madhu a Brahmin lad .His intense and intimate love drew strong criticism from his contemporary intellectuals and historians of the undivided India- the likes of Lajwanti Ramkrishna. Male-to-male relation though viewed negatively yet it was usual and customary with Iranian mystics and Sufis. A renowned writer quote Shah Hussain as saying, " I am neither a Muslim nor a pagan". In fact he was a Muslim as he memorized Qur'an in his early age.He turned Mureed (follower )of Behlol Shah Daryal -a remowned Pir (spiritual leader)- for 26 years.His poetry and personality carries diversity and acceptance for Hindus, Sikhs and Dalits as his fervent love for Madhu lal showed.He possessed some miraculous powers as stories goes. He was spotted sleeping in the same bed with Madhu and his relative came to murder the both but fate turned them blind and they couldn't carry out the killing.His kafis are touching and moving like that of Baba Bulleh Shah, Baba Fareed Ganj Shakar and Dr Allama Iqbal .His poems are short in metre and ryhthmetic in pronouncing and strong in message and appeal.He touches upon important topics of Ishq e haqiqi (love for Allah), life, charkh, life anddeath, purpose of life etc.His standing and stature may be gauged from the fact that millions of people in Pakistan, India and other parts of the world love him and visit his tomb near Mughal garden Shalamar Bagh.His annual Urs (festival gattering) attract huge rush and crowed .There lies burried both the friends -Shah Hussain and Madhu Lal now infused in one collective name of Madhu Lal Hussain.

A compelling tale of mystery, passion and spiritual exploration seventy-year-old Shastri; A reciter of Harikatha, encounters an Ayyappa pilgrim on a train. Around the pilgrim's neck is a Sri chakra amulet which looks like one that belonged to Saroja, Shastri's first wife. But Shastri thought he had killed Saroja years before, believing she was pregnant by another man. If the amulet is Saroja's, then she might have survived, and the pilgrim (Dinakar, a television star) could be Shastri's son. A similar story is revealed when Dinakar visits his old friend Narayan: either could be the father of Prasad, A young man destined for spiritual attainment. The interwoven lives of three generations play out variations on the same themes. Whose son am I? Whose father am I? Where are my roots? These mysteries of the past and present are explored, but there are no clear answers. And while significant in daily being , such questions lose urgency in the flux of becoming (Bhava means both being and becoming). So we are led to consider that Samsara-the world of illusion and embodiment-may not be very different from Sunya , the emptiness from which everything arises. At times a drama of cruelty and lust, at times a lyrical meditation on love and transformation, Bhava is an exceptional novel by one of India's most celebrated writers. Translated from the Kannada by Judith Kroll with the author.

Bringing together disciplines across the arts, humanities and social sciences, this Handbook presents novel and lively examinations of the dynamic ways religion, gender and sexuality operate. Applying feminist, intersectional, and reflexive approaches, the volume aims to loosen imperialist and exclusionary figurations that have underwritten and tethered religion, gender, and sexuality together. While holding onto the field of inquiry, the Handbook offers contributions that interrogate and untie it from the terms and conditions that have formed it. The volume is organized into thematic sections: - Forces and Futures - Activisms and Labors - Agencies and Practices - Relationships and Institutions - Texts and Objects Chapters range across religious, geographical, historical, political, and social contexts and feature an array of case-studies, experiences, and topics that exemplify the reflexive intention of the volume, including explorations of race, whiteness, colonialism, and the institutional intolerance of minority groups. Contributors also advance new areas of research in religion including artificial intelligence, farming, migrant mothering, child sexual abuse, mediatization, national security, legal frameworks, addiction and recovery, decolonial hermeneutics, creative arts, sport, sexual practices, and academic friendship. This is an essential contribution to the fields of religious studies and gender and sexuality studies.

Borrowing from Sanghadasa's Jaina version of the Ramayana, Mandodari-one of the least known characters of the Hindu epic-is finally given a voice. Considered to be one of the most beautiful apsaras, she was married off to the mighty Ravana, the legendary king of Lanka. In her story, she speaks about her struggles after her marriage, her insecurities and her pious nature that challenged her husband's growing aspirations. She narrates the rise of Ravana's power and the blunders he made that ultimately caused the downfall of Lanka. Despite her husband's faults, Mandodari loved him and advised him to follow the path of righteousness. Ravana's defeat in a thirteen-day war turned him into a villain. But what if he were the real hero on his side of the war? What if his downfall was a result of scheming to push him out of power? This is Mandodari's story.
