It is located along the Western Railway’s Nadiad-Bhadran rail-line and is close to National Highway 8. History: In the 11th century, Rajputs established a settlement in this town. Later, different communities like Shahs, Rabaris, etc, came and settled in the township. At the time, the town was well to do and self sufficient according to historical recourses. Later, due to the demise of success, the settlers left and the town became deserted and was reduced to ruins. Archaeological finds of the town were discovered between Ghoghal Talavadi and Dudhia Talav (Both being lakes) during construction of Kasor road. Shree Vikabhai Kalyanji Patel of Kasor Town in 1269 A.D. (V.S. 1212) established the present Township of Sunav for settlement. The ceremony was performed in Sravan Nakhshatra, and therefore the town was called SRAVANAVYA. Later, it became Sunav. The 24th ancestor of Shree Vikabhai Patel namely Shree Ganeshji Patel build Vaijanath Mahadev Devalaya on Dev Talav, which is still present. After establishment of Shree Vikabhai Patel, the town became self sufficient and steady. Other communities also came for settlement, as the Patidar community grew in the town. At the 22nd generation, Vishram Patel and his three brothers are known to have existed. Vishram Patel stayed at Sunav while his three brothers left. Sunav, some 17Km. west of Anand, enjoys an important status among the settlement in Charotar despite having a population of only 9500. Sunav is always counted within the leading towns of Charotar Pradesh. Sunav had emerged as an ideal village. As a result, it was visited by dignitaries like Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Sarojini Naidu, Dr. Rajendra Prasad, the President of India and foreign reporters. Under the guidance of Shree Vallbhbhai B. Patel and Shree Kishorbhai L. Patel, there was the emergence of V.B. Vinay Mandir in 1919 as an educational institution, which allowed Sunav to become an educational center in the area. In 1920 when the non co-operation movement started in India against British Rule it became a National School. During the self- governing movement of 1930 and 1932, the teachers and students of the school participated 6 Computer Engineering Department with great passion and many of them went to prison. Since, Sunav has been a spotless town at a national levelSince independence the donation of Shree Somabhai V. Patel, Shree Govindbhai J. Patel, Shree Ambalal J. Patel and Shree Purshottam K. Patel for the overall progressive development of Sunav has been very helpful and remains very well remembered and respected even to the present time.

The growth, strength and inter- supportiveness of these four pillars are key to spreading of the Swaminarayan Faith. Lord Shree Swaminarayan has acknowledged these pillars and laid down the key responsibilities for each of the pillars. He instructed his Nand-Santos to write Shastras which helped the devotees to perform devotion (Bhakti), acquire true knowledge (Gnan), practice righteous living (Dharma) and develop non- attachment to every thing material except Supreme God, Lord Shree Swaminarayan (Vairagya). There are nine types of bhakti, of which, Lord Shree Swaminarayan has singled out Kirtan Bhakti as one of the most important and fundamental in our devotion to God.

Anthropology - Dissertations. 93. https://surface.syr.edu/ant_etd/93 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Anthropology - Dissertations by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Aghoreshwar Mahaprabhu Baba Bhagawan Ram Ji, a well-established saint of the holy city of Varanasi in north India, initiated many changes into the erstwhile Aghor tradition of ascetics in India. This tradition is regarded as an ancient system of spiritual or mystical knowledge by its practitioners and at least some of the practices followed in this tradition can certainly be traced back at least to the time of the Buddha. Over the course of the centuries practitioners of this tradition have interacted with groups of other mystical traditions, exchanging ideas and practices so that both parties in the exchange appear to have been influenced by the other. Naturally, such an interaction between groups can lead to difficulty in determining a clear course of development of the tradition. In this dissertation I bring together micro-history, hagiography, folklore, religious and comparative studies together in an attempt to understand how this modern day religious-spiritual tradition has been shaped by the past and the role religion has to play in modern life, if only with reference to a single case study.

  • Mudras of India
    “The art and science of hasta mudras in Classical Indian Dance and yoga is a complete language in itself. It has been handed down through the ages from seers and sages to those interested. Documenting these mudras at length, this book becomes a seminal compilation, with illustrations and text, and brings aesthetic and artistic sensibilities to an otherwise academic subject. Congrats!” —Professor Ashish Mohan Khokar, scholar on arts and culture of India and Chair of the Dance History Society of India “Neuroscience has shown that our touch-screen technology is depriving us of the evolutionary use of our hands as tools of the mind, putting us at risk for depression. This astonishingly beautiful and well-researched book offers the sacred art of hand gesture that, in connecting hand to mind and heart, can sustain our physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual well-being. Whether you come to Mudras of India with an interest in dance, yoga, meditation, or your own self-care, you will be well-served.” —Amy Weintraub, founder of the LifeForce Yoga Healing Institute and author of Yoga for Depression and Yoga Skills for Therapists “Mudras of India by Cain and Revital Carroll is a comprehensive, exhaustive study of ‘mudras,’ both in yoga and Classical Indian Dance. The text delves into mudras in various cultures and explicates their possible therapeutic uses.
