Book Description
The book recounts the journey of Vivek ji and numerous others during the years 2022-23 along the revered banks of the Narmada river. The book is not just a travelogue of the author’s journey along the banks of the river, but also a documentation of the numerous ancient teerthas that are scattered along the holy banks of Narmada, which have been mostly forgotten by everyone. The teerthas are the starting point of the Narmada Parikrama, playing a crucial role in shaping this tradition. Vivek ji’s Narmada parikrama was a journey undertaken with the purpose of immersing oneself in the spiritual landscapes of the sacred Narmada river. However, it was the parikrama that ultimately uncovered and drew attention to the Teerthas.

Geological Currents : Decoding the Bhagavad Gita's Wisdom in Indian Rivers
Author: Yamini Malhotra
Publisher: kitab writing publication
ISBN: 9360927724
Category : Antiques & Collectibles
Languages : en
Pages : 239
Book Description
In the timeless verses of the Bhagavad Gita, a sacred scripture dating back thousands of years, one can find more than just spiritual guidance and philosophical insights. Nestled within the poetic expressions of wisdom, there are subtle clues and profound observations that beckon us to explore the intricate tapestry of the Earth itself. This preface serves as an invitation to embark on a journey into the geological mysteries of Indian rivers, as elucidated by the ancient verses of the Bhagavad Gita. The Gita, a philosophical dialogue between Lord Krishna and Arjuna, transcends the boundaries of time, offering a holistic perspective on life, existence, and the natural world. As we delve into its verses, we discover glimpses of geological understanding that echo across millennia. It is a testament to the nuanced observations and the keen sense of interconnectedness that the ancient seers possessed, showcasing an awareness of the Earth's processes that is as relevant today as it was in ancient times. This exploration seeks to unveil the geological clues embedded in the verses of the Bhagavad Gita, specifically focusing on the rivers that crisscross the vast and diverse landscape of India. These rivers, revered and celebrated in cultural and spiritual contexts, are not merely channels of water but bear witness to the geological tales inscribed in their ancient, rocky beds. As we traverse through the chapters of the Gita, we will draw attention to verses that hint at the dynamics of rivers, the cycles of erosion and sedimentation, and the profound connections between nature and human existence. The Gita's verses, often poetic and metaphorical, provide a unique lens through which we can perceive the geological processes that shape the land and sculpt its rivers. This journey into the geology of Indian rivers, guided by the wisdom of the Bhagavad Gita, is an endeavour to bridge the realms of spirituality and science, revealing a deeper understanding of the Earth's mysteries. It is an exploration of the ancient's comprehension of the natural world, a testament to the enduring relevance of their insights, and an ode to the rivers that have been witness to the ebb and flow of civilizations over the ages. So, let us embark on this expedition, guided by the verses of the Bhagavad Gita, to unravel the geological secrets woven into the fabric of India's rivers and to discover the profound interconnectedness between the spiritual and the scientific, the ancient and the modern.

This beautiful guidebook explores the medieval hill-fort of Mandu, 99 kms from Indore in Madhya Pradesh, described by emperors, historians and travellers as the City of Joy .

Pages : 578
Book Description
In India: A Sacred Geography, renowned Harvard scholar Diana Eck offers an extraordinary spiritual journey through the pilgrimage places of the world's most religiously vibrant culture and reveals that it is, in fact, through these sacred pilgrimages that India’s very sense of nation has emerged. No matter where one goes in India, one will find a landscape in which mountains, rivers, forests, and villages are elaborately linked to the stories of the gods and heroes of Indian culture. Every place in this vast landscape has its story, and conversely, every story of Hindu myth and legend has its place. Likewise, these places are inextricably tied to one another—not simply in the past, but in the present—through the local, regional, and transregional practices of pilgrimage. India: A Sacred Geography tells the story of the pilgrim’s India. In these pages, Diana Eck takes the reader on an extraordinary spiritual journey through the living landscape of this fascinating country –its mountains, rivers, and seacoasts, its ancient and powerful temples and shrines. Seeking to fully understand the sacred places of pilgrimage from the ground up, with their stories, connections and layers of meaning, she acutely examines Hindu religious ideas and narratives and shows how they have been deeply inscribed in the land itself. Ultimately, Eck shows us that from these networks of pilgrimage places, India’s very sense of region and nation has emerged. This is the astonishing and fascinating picture of a land linked for centuries not by the power of kings and governments, but by the footsteps of pilgrims. India: A Sacred Geography offers a unique perspective on India, both as a complex religious culture and as a nation. Based on her extensive knowledge and her many decades of wide-ranging travel and research, Eck's piercing insights and a sweeping grasp of history ensure that this work will be in demand for many years to come.
