Arya Samaj Movement in South Africa
Arya Samaj Movement in South Africa
Even though it is primarily a religious organisation, the Arya Samaj movement emerged as a significant player in India’s fight for social and cultural autonomy, which involved both religious and secular groups. It was established in 1875, foreshadowing the establishment of an independent India in 1947. This work makes no attempt to provide a detailed
investigation of the movement, but also presents a summary of its development and philosophy in the context of the contributions made by its founder, Swami Dayanand Sarasvati. There is a lot of reason to be proud of the Samaj’s complex of institutions and upliftment programmes that they started, as well as the major historical forces that played a role in shaping the movement.
The nineteenth century saw the beginning of a number of different socio-religious groups, one of which was the Arya Samaj. Despite this, it was responsible for the construction of many of the most prestigious educational institutions in northern India. Indian groups who had immigrated to other countries, such as Mauritius, South Africa, and Guyana, were among the first to feel the impact of these events. What was once a little religious group has now grown into a religious denomination that has significant weight in the world today. One of the Arya Pratinidhi Sabhas may be found in South Africa.

Tulasidasa’s Sri Ramacaritamanasa: The Holy Lake of the Acts of Rama (A Romanized Edition)
Tulasidasa’s Sri Ramacaritamanasa: The Holy Lake of the Acts of Rama (A Romanized Edition)
The SHRI RAMACHARITAMANASA by Tulasidasa is the single most popular book among Hindus. This book has a huge appeal to the affluent and the poor, the learned and the uneducated, the elderly and the young, and the scholar and the ordinary man. It has done so for over four centuries. This one-of-a-kind version of the Ramacharitamanasa, which also includes the original text written by Tulasidasa as well as verse-by-verse translations into Hindi and English, was created with the goal of satisfying the growing interest that people have in epic literature. The translation that was done by a skilled academic does the original work justice in terms of its inherent depth and complexity. It has been crafted with the intention of being of help to Indian brothers and sisters who now reside outside of India and for whom Tulasidasa’s original may have been written in a dialect that was difficult to understand. A regular and genuine copy of the Ramacharitamanasa has been in high demand among the enormous Indian population that has relocated outside of India for a significant amount of time. This particular version is distinguished by the incorporation of Lavakushakanda, Shri Hanumanchalisa, and Shri Ramashalaka Prashnavali as one of its key features. Special care has been taken for making it useful to the Indian brethren living abroad to whom the dialect of Tulsidasa’s original may be somewhat incomprehensible. There has been a long-standing demand from the vast Indian community settled abroad for a standard and authentic edition of the Ramacharitamanasa
This version is based on our very first publication of Shriramacharitamanasa, which came out in 1988 and received widespread praise.
The current edition, which has been produced to fulfil their need by using the most up-to-date printing and processing processes, has been created to conform to the worldwide standard for works of literature.
The manner in which it is to be recited is detailed in an appendix that is presented on its own. The fact that book has key sections written by Indian, European, and American experts is another factor that contributes to its one-of-a-kind character.

Shri Ramacharitamanasa: The Holy Lake Of The Acts Of Rama
Shri Ramacharitamanasa: The Holy Lake Of The Acts Of Rama
The SHRI RAMACHARITAMANASA by Tulasidasa is the single most popular book among Hindus. This book has a huge appeal to the affluent and the poor, the learned and the uneducated, the elderly and the young, as well as the scholar and the ordinary man. It has been around for more than four centuries.
Its popularity is neither exclusive to India, nor is it just read by Hindus, neither of which is true. Because it reaffirms man’s trust in the robustness of moral order that sustains the world, the message of the RAMACHARITAMANASA is more pertinent than ever in today’s world. Dark and wicked powers may and will sometimes pose a danger to disturb that order, but eventually, divine intervention will chasten and subjugate those forces and bring them under control.
This one-of-a-kind version of the RAMACHARITAMANASA has been developed with a verse-by-verse Hindi and English translation, in addition to Tulasidasa’s original text, bearing in mind the ever-increasing interest that people have shown in epic literature. The fundamental richness of the original has been preserved in the translation that was produced by an expert scholar. It has been constructed with the intention of being of assistance to Indian brothers and sisters who are now residing outside of India and for whom the dialect used in Tulasidasa’s original may be rather difficult to understand. The enormous Indian diaspora living in other countries has, for a very long time, voiced their desire for a standard and genuine copy of the RAMACHARITAMANASA. The current version was developed to fulfil their request by using the most cutting-edge printing and processing methods available in order to produce a product that conforms to international standards.
This version is distinguished in particular by the incorporation of Lavakushakanda, Shri Hanumanchalisa, and Shri Ramashalaka Prashnavali. The manner in which it is to be recited is detailed in a separate appendix. The significant portion that includes Indian, European, and American scholars’ critiques of Tulasidasa’s RAMACHARITAMANASA is another facet that contributes to the book’s one-of-a-kind character. The last section includes a dictionary that defines significant proper nouns as well as epithets.
Dr. R.C. Prasad translated SHRI RAMACHARITAMANASA into simple and lucid English and Hindi. He was a University Professor of English in Patna University where he taught for about three decades. He was an eminent author, translator and editor. He had a good number of books to his credit.

Origin and Growth of the Puranic Text Corpus: With Special Reference to the Skandapurana
Origin and Growth of the Puranic Text Corpus: With Special Reference to the Skandapurana
The Purana panel that was part of the 12th World Sanskrit Conference that was held in Helsinki in July 2003 was intended to investigate deviations from the original Purana texts, and the papers that were presented at that panel are gathered in this collection. They concentrate mostly on the original Skandapurana, which is an excellent resource for research on the beginnings, development, and growth of the Purana writings as well as the theological advancements that these works depict.
The order in which the chapters of this book are presented has a purpose, even if each chapter may be read independently of the others. The first portion of Bakker’s contribution might be seen as a kind of introduction to the topic being discussed. The second component of the analysis focuses on a portion of the text in which the distinction between recension and other categories does not have a significant impact. Torzsok and Harimoto’s contributions centre on the transmission of the Purana and its evolution into a variety of recensions during the course of their research.

Essays on the Mahabharata
Essays on the Mahabharata
This book is considered to be a classic analysis of a massive work known as the Mahabharata. It is maybe the longest epic in all of written history. It is an epic study of epics due to the voluminous size it has itself attained, the kaleidoscopic variety of the themes it covers, the great diversity of approaches it canvasses, the wide array of contributions it includes, and the high standard of scholarship it achieves. All of these factors combine to make it an epic study of epics. Students and academics specialising in Hinduism, comparative religion, comparative literature, comparative mythology, and classics are the target audience for this work.

The Hidden Wisdom of the Goddess
The Hidden Wisdom of the Goddess
The Hidden Wisdom of the Goddess is a long meditation presented in the form of a book. It follows the general pattern of the Devimahatmya, albeit it does so in a manner that is both imaginatively shortened and expanded in various places. In the Devimahatmya, the wise seer Medhas imparts knowledge by using the language of myth, which begs to be interpreted due to the fact that very little is explicated directly. The Secret Wisdom to the Goddess is an elegant, straightforward, and easy-to-understand presentation of the holy man’s teachings that reveal the hidden wisdom they contain.
The majority of the content of this book is comprised of scenarios, incidents, and dialogues that have been fabricated by the author and take place between Medhas and his two students, the king Suratha and the merchant Samadhi. The primary characters in the novel develop more and begin to take on a personality of their own as the story goes on. While all this is going on, the writer delves further and deeper into the mysteries of the human condition.

The Origins of Evil in Hindu Mythology
The Origins of Evil in Hindu Mythology
James Austin’s insights into the fundamental connections that exist between Zen Buddhism and brain science are continued in this volume, which is a follow-up to his extremely popular book Zen and the Brain. In Zen-Brain Reflections, Austin, a clinical neurologist, researcher, and Zen practitioner, investigates the growing psychological processes and brain alterations connected with the path of long-range contemplative training. Austin is also a researcher at the University of California, San Francisco. Not only does Austin draw from the most recent findings in neuroscience and new neuroimaging investigations, but he also pulls from Zen literature and his own experience with different states of consciousness. This book picks up exactly where the last one left off. Zen-Brain Reflections. It provides answers to issues such as “how exactly do placebos and acupuncture impact the brain?” Can scientists using neuroimaging pinpoint the locations in our brains where our concepts of self first take shape? How can the most cutting-edge brain imaging techniques be used to better effectively monitor meditators? How is it that extensive amounts of time spent meditating, along with fleeting experiences of enlightenment, may bring about fundamental changes in the physiological makeup of the brain? In a number of the chapters, there are theories that may be tested that indicate methods to associate normal brain processes and the practise of meditation with the occurrence of unusual states of consciousness. After making a quick introduction to the subject of Zen and discussing the most current findings from research into meditation, Austin discusses the most recent findings from research on the amygdala, frontotemporal connections, and paralimbic extensions of the limbic system. After that, he investigates the many states of consciousness, from the earliest, most shallow absorptions to the latter, most significant “peak experiences.” This discussion starts with the states known as kensho and satori and includes an updated study of the many ways in which these states convey “oneness.” He refers beyond the even more advanced phases toward that uncommon continuing degree of enlightenment that is characterised by the manifestation of “sage wisdom.” Last but not least, in

Gods Beyond Temples
Gods Beyond Temples
The holy is more of an experience than an idea in the Indian tradition, and it extends well beyond the confined spaces of an organised temple or even a shrine. The adherents of this religion, much like the gods of this tradition, are humble and unassuming, yet at the same time dignified and certain of themselves. Whether it be a tree that is revered or a naturally occurring stone that is revered, a river that is the embodiment of divinity itself, an ancestor that is worshipped, a fabric that is simply draped, a road side shrine on a busy street or a votive terracotta horse that was lovingly made and offered, a narrative scroll that holds its audience spell-bound; here is religion at work that is as spontaneous as it is intemperate. The rites and practises performed in honour of these deities are neither written nor canonised; nonetheless, whatever they may lack in grandeur, erudition, and formality, they more than make up for in the faith and passion that they inspire in those who participate in them. These sacred manifestations and expressions of the ordinary people have a tendency to be sidelined or dismissed by academics as well as the world at large, as minor or lesser gods worthy of curiosity but not of serious study. However, it is important to keep in mind that they have a beauty and presence of their own in the pluralistic Indian tradition.

Selections from the Mahabharata: Re-affirming Gita’s Call for the Good of All
The societal message that the Mahabharata is trying to convey is presented in this book in the form of a ten-point exhortation for the benefit of everyone. Since this message is principally presented, according to the terminology of loksamgraha, in the Bhagavad-Gita (which is the center-piece of the Mahabharata), the style of presentation that has been used here is Gita supporting, which means that it is indirect as well as selective. This book comes with a straightforward explanation of what it means in English, laid out in the form of eighteen chapters.

Loving Ganesa – Hinduism’s Endearing Elephant-Faced God: An illustrated resource on Dharma’s Benevolent Deity, remover of obstacles, Patron of art and science, Honored as first among the Celestials
There is no other novel about this well-loved deity who has an elephant’s face that is more emotionally moving. This brilliant work of art will bring the Lord of Dharma to life for you as you experience it. It makes contacting this merciful Lord simple and gives one motivation to do so.
“In this book, Satguru Subramuniyaswami demonstrates his extensive knowledge, as well as his profound intuition and wisdom, as well as his heartfelt devotion and love of Lord Genesa. Lord Genesa is known as the Protector of the Sanatana Dharma, the Remover of Obstacles, the Patron of Arts and Science, and the Mediator and Intercessor between Man and God. He is the God who is on our side, who is our friend and who actually protects and provides for us.
“The Great Genesa is presented to the reader in a language that is exemplary, unambiguous, and refined, using words that are easy to understand and with a sense of humour that is invigorating and subtle. Along with mantras, prayers, and pujas to show homage to the kind elephant-faced God, each and every facet, relation, symbol, and meaning of Lord Genesa has been expertly described and illustrated. Many people have the misconception that Lord Genesa is an obese, arrogant, elephant-headed deity who is connected to the Hindu pantheon in some way, despite the fact that he has never truly gotten to know any of the Hindu deities. In the event that this has been the case for you, then Loving Genesa has arrived at the perfect moment to provide you with the appropriate responses to all of your inquiries and to bring you closer to the magnificent and endearing Ganapati, who is the Keeper of All Knowledge and the Great Ruler of the Universe.
“My deepest gratitude goes out to Satguruji Subramuniyaswami for the gift of this magnificent book, which is a source of an inexhaustible supply of heavenly nectar, enlightenment, and happiness. I pray that all of you who read this may be blessed with pleasure, success, and the heavenly protection of the loving and compassionate Genesa.” (Sri Sri Paramhans Swami Maheshwarananda, International Sri Deep Madhavananda Ashram Fellowship; Vienna, Austria)
