    NARRATING NORTH GUJARAT: A STUDY OF AMRUT PATEL’S CONTRIBUTION TO FOLK LITERATURE A MINOR RESEARCH PROJECT :: SUBMITTED TO :: UNIVERSITY GRANTS COMMISSION :: SUBMITTED BY :: DR.RAJESHKUMAR A. PATEL ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR SMT.R.R.H.PATEL MAHILA ARTS COLLEGE, VIJAPUR DIST.MEHSANA (GUJARAT) 2015 Preface Literature reflects human emotions, thoughts and expressions. It’s a record of activities and abstract ideas of human beings. The oral tradition of literature is the aspect of literature passing ideas and feelings mouth to mouth. I’ve enjoyed going through the precious and rare pieces of folk literature collected and edited by Amrut Patel. I congratulate and salute Amrut Patel for rendering valuable service to this untouchable, vanishing field of civilization. His efforts to preserve the vanishing forms of oral tradition stand as milestone for future generation and students of folk literature. I am indebted to UGC for sanctioning the project. The principal of my college, Dr.Sureshbhai Patel and collegues have inspired me morally and intellectually. I thank them. I feel gratitude to Nanabhai Nadoda for uploding my ideas and making my work easy. Shaileshbhai Paramar, the librarian has extended his time and help, I thank him. Shri Vishnubhai M.Patel, Shri R.R.Ravat, Shri.D.N.Patel, Shri S.M.Patel, Shri R.J.Brahmbhatt, Shri J.J.Rathod., Shri D.S.Kharadi, B.L.Bhangi and Maheshbhai Limbachiya have suppoted me morally.

Valpey The Palgrave Macmillan Animal Ethics Series Series Editors Andrew Linzey Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics Oxford, UK Priscilla N. Cohn Pennsylvania State University Villanova, PA, USA Associate Editor Clair Linzey Oxford Centre for Animal Ethics Oxford, UK In recent years, there has been a growing interest in the ethics of our treatment of animals. Philosophers have led the way, and now a range of other scholars have followed from historians to social scientists. From being a marginal issue, animals have become an emerging issue in ethics and in multidisciplinary inquiry. Tis series will explore the challenges that Animal Ethics poses, both conceptually and practically, to traditional understandings of human-animal relations. Specifcally, the Series will: • provide a range of key introductory and advanced texts that map out ethical positions on animals • publish pioneering work written by new, as well as accomplished, scholars; • produce texts from a variety of disciplines that are multidisciplinary in character or have multidisciplinary relevance.

  • Gandhi's Impact on the Tamil Psyche
    HINDUSTAN TIMES, NEW DELHI 10 hindustantimes THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 2019 YEARS ON In the south 1869 - 2019 N O T E S FROM THE FIELD ' binary of Ambedkar/Periyar before I came Commemorative stamps starting with to Madurai. In the course of my doctoral the- India Post’s 2018 set, and those issued sis on Iyothee Dasa Pandithar [also spelt around the globe over the years Thass; he was a 19th and early 20th century Tamil Dalit social reformer who converted to Buddhism], I realised the contribution of Gandhi and Gandhians in changing Tamil society. Irrespective of what Dravidian par- ties would have you believe, without Gandhi there would have been little social justice or reform in Tamil Nadu that the state prides itself on,” says Stalin Rajangam, a Dalit scholar and researcher who teaches Tamil literature in Madurai’s American College. MADURAI’S GANDHI MEMORY The Gandhi Memorial Museum in Madurai is one of six national Gandhi monuments in India and the only one in south India. It is housed in a magnificent palace built in 1700 1 by the brave Madurai regent queen, Rani Mangammal. To add to the tourist attrac- tions, there is a giant model of the Tyranno- saurus Rex in the campus. The museum, inaugurated in 1959, is in custody of the bloodstained shawl and loincloth worn by Gandhi when he was shot by Nathuram Godse in 1948. It is kept in display in an alcove with walls painted in black. 2 However, there are other pieces of Gan- dhi’s legacy scattered in the south.

  • The Life Ad Afterlife of the Mahatma
    Indi@logs Vol 1 2014, pp. 103-122, ISSN: 2339-8523 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ GADHI ISM VS . G ADHI GIRI : THE LIFE AD AFTERLIFE OF THE MAHATMA 1 MAKARAND R. P ARANJAPE Jawaharlal Nehru University [email protected] Received: 11-05-2013 Accepted: 01-10-2013 ABSTRACT This paper, which contrasts Rajkumar Hirani’s Lage Raho Munna Bhai (2006) with Richard Attenborough’s Gandhi (1982), is as much a celebration of Bollywood as of Gandhi. It is to the former that the credit for most effectively resurrecting the Mahatma should go, certainly much more so than to Gandhians or academics. For Bollywood literally revives the spirit of Gandhi by showing how irresistibly he continues to haunt India today. Not just in giving us Gandhigiri—a totally new way of doing Gandhi in the world—but in its perceptive representation of the threat that modernity poses to Gandhian thought is Lage Raho Munna Bhai remarkable. What is more, it also draws out the distinction between Gandhi as hallucination and the real afterlife of the Mahatma. The film’s enormous popularity at the box office—it grossed close to a billion rupees—is not just an index of its commercial success, but also proof of the responsive chord it struck in Indian audiences. But it is not just the genius and inventiveness of Bollywood cinema that is demonstrated in the film as much as the persistence and potency of Gandhi’s own ideas, which have the capacity to adapt themselves to unusual circumstances and times. Both Richard Attenborough’s Oscar-winning epic, and Rajkumar Hirani’s Lage Raho Munna Bhai show that Gandhi remains as media-savvy after his death as he was during his life.

  • Gandhi and Mani Bhavan
    73 Gandhi and Mani Bhavan Sandhya Mehta Volume 1 : Issue 07, November 2020 1 : Issue 07, November Volume Independent Researcher, Social Media Coordinator of Mani Bhavan, Mumbai, [email protected] Sambhāṣaṇ 74 Abstract: This narrative attempts to give a brief description of Gandhiji’s association with Mani Bhavan from 1917 to 1934. Mani Bhavan was the nerve centre in the city of Bombay (now Mumbai) for Gandhiji’s activities and movements. It was from here that Gandhiji launched the first nationwide satyagraha of Rowlett Act, started Khilafat and Non-operation movements. Today it stands as a memorial to Gandhiji’s life and teachings. _______ The most distinguished address in a quiet locality of Gamdevi in Mumbai is the historic building, Mani Bhavan - the house where Gandhiji stayed whenever he was in Mumbai from 1917 to 1934. Mani Bhavan belonged to Gandhiji’s friend Revashankar Jhaveri who was a jeweller by profession and elder brother of Dr Pranjivandas Mehta - Gandhiji’s friend from his student days in England. Gandhiji and Revashankarbhai shared the ideology of non-violence, truth and satyagraha and this was the bond of their empathetic friendship. Gandhiji respected Revashankarbhai as his elder brother as a result the latter was ever too happy to Volume 1 : Issue 07, November 2020 1 : Issue 07, November Volume host him at his house. I will be mentioning Mumbai as Bombay in my text as the city was then known. Sambhāṣaṇ Sambhāṣaṇ Volume 1 : Issue 07, November 2020 75 Mani Bhavan was converted into a Gandhi museum in 1955. Dr Rajendra Prasad, then The President of India did the honours of inaugurating the museum.

  • Rabindranath Tagore: a Social Thinker and an Activist a Review of Literature and a Bibliography Kumkum Chattopadhyay, Retd
    2018 Heritage Vol.-V Rabindranath Tagore: a Social Thinker and an Activist A Review of Literature and a Bibliography Kumkum Chattopadhyay, Retd. Associate Professor, Dept. of Political Science, Bethune College, Kolkata-6 Abstract: Rabindranath Tagore, although basically a poet, had a multifaceted personality. Among his various activities his sincerity as a social thinker and activist attract our attention. But this area is till now comparatively unexplored. Many scholars in this area have tried to study Tagore as a social thinker. But so far the findings are scattered and on the whole there is no comprehensive analysis in the strict sense of the term. Hence it is necessary to collect the different findings and to integrate and arrange them within a theoretical framework. This article is an attempt to make a review of literature of the existing books and to prepare a short but sharp bibliography to introduce the area. Key words: Rabindranath Tagore, society, social, political, history, education, Santiniketan, Visva-Bharati Rabindranath Tagore (1861 – 1941) was a prolific writer, a successful music composer, a painter, an actor, a drama director and what not. Besides these talents, he was also a social activist and contributed a lot to Indian social and political thought, although this area has not been very much explored till now. Tagore was emphatic upon society building. So he tried to develop all the component elements which were essential for developing the Indian society. He studied the history of India to follow the trend of its evolution. Next he prepared his programme of action – rural reconstruction and spread of education.

  • Chapter I Introduction
    CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Nonviolence is the pillar of Gandhi‘s life and work. His concept of nonviolence was based on cultivating a particular philosophical outlook and was integrally associated with truth. For him, nonviolence not just meant refraining from physical violence interpersonally and nationally but refraining from the inner violence of the heart as well. It meant the practice of active love towards one‘s oppressor and enemies in the pursuit of justice, truth and peace; ―Nonviolence cannot be preached‖ he insisted, ―It has to be practiced.‖ (Dear John, 2004). Non Violence is mightier than violence. Gandhi had studied very well the basic nature of man. To him, "Man as animal is violent, but in spirit he is non-violent.‖ The moment he awakes to the spirit within, he cannot remain violent". Thus, violence is artificial to him whereas non-violence has always an edge over violence. (Gandhi, M.K., 1935). Mahatma Gandhi‘s nonviolent struggle which helped in attaining independence is the biggest example. Ahimsa (nonviolence) has been part of Indian religious tradition for centuries. According to Mahatma Gandhi the concept of nonviolence has two dimensions i.e. nonviolence in action and nonviolence in thought. It is not a negative virtue rather it is positive state of love. The underlying principle of non- violence is "hate the sin, but not the sinner." Gandhi believes that man is a part of God, and the same divine spark resides in all men. Since the same spirit resides in all men, the possibility of reforming the meanest of men cannot be ruled out.

  • UHP in the Words of an Eminent Gandhian! Former Chancellor- Gujarat Vidyapeeth, Ahmedabad
    UHP in the words of an eminent Gandhian! former Chancellor- Gujarat Vidyapeeth, Ahmedabad Narayan Desai Narayan Desai, son of Mahatma Gandhi's personal secretary Mahadev Desai, was the Founder Member and Director of the World Peace Brigade. He won many awards that include UNESCO Award for Non-Violence and Tolerance. He writes about UHP: “When Gandhi says truth is God, he hints at the element pervading the entire universe. Gandhi’s field of action is entire human kind. Hence his search for harmony yields the ideology of equality of religions, removal of untouchability and elimination of class. Dr. Ramesh Kapadia’s field of action is human body. Hence his search for harmony yields tools such as Meditation and Shavasana. Spirituality is his path- finder and science the engine of progress. Their achievements may vary in terms of commitment and effort. But their direction is the same. They may be at different points on the path of progress. But both move towards the goal with faith and logical resources. Gandhi’s experiments were successful to the extent that they were people-friendly. The experiments of Dr. Kapadia and other researchers like him will prove socially useful to the extent that they are accessible to common people. Gandhiji’s experience suggests that such experiments prove as successful in achievement of their goal as the purity and selflessness underlying their pursuit.” Dr. Kapadia’s publications and the core part of Universal Healing Program (UHP) are available on his website www.universalhealing.org from which they can be downloaded free of cost. There is an App of universal healing program (UHP) which can be downloaded from play store in android & App store in IOS.

  • 1. Letter to Children of Bal Mandir
    1. LETTER TO CHILDREN OF BAL MANDIR KARACHI, February 4, 1929 CHILDREN OF BAL MANDIR, The children of the Bal Mandir1are too mischievous. What kind of mischief was this that led to Hari breaking his arm? Shouldn’t there be some limit to playing pranks? Let each child give his or her reply. QUESTION TWO: Does any child still eat spices? Will those who eat them stop doing so? Those of you who have given up spices, do you feel tempted to eat them? If so, why do you feel that way? QUESTION THREE: Does any of you now make noise in the class or the kitchen? Remember that all of you have promised me that you will make no noise. In Karachi it is not so cold as they tried to frighten me by saying it would be. I am writing this letter at 4 o’clock. The post is cleared early. Reading by mistake four instead of three, I got up at three. I didn’t then feel inclined to sleep for one hour. As a result, I had one hour more for writing letters to the Udyoga Mandir2. How nice ! Blessings from BAPU From a photostat of the Gujarati: G.N. 9222 1 An infant school in the Sabarmati Ashram 2 Since the new constitution published on June 14, 1928 the Ashram was renamed Udyoga Mandir.

I believe that no better arrangements could have been made than what has come about without any special planning.
