  • Guide to 275 SIVA STHALAMS Glorified by Thevaram Hymns (Pathigams) of Nayanmars

His book on “The Path of Ramanuja”, and “The Guide to 108 Divya Desams” in book form on the CD, has been well received in the religious circle. Preface: Tirth Yatras or pilgrimages have been an integral part of Hinduism. Pilgrimages are considered quite important by the ritualistic followers of Sanathana dharma. There are a few centers of sacredness, which are held at high esteem by the ardent devotees who dream to travel and worship God in these holy places. All these holy sites have some mythological significance attached to them. When people go to a temple, they say they go for Darsan – of the image of the presiding deity. The pinnacle act of Hindu worship is to stand in the presence of the deity and to look upon the image so as to see and be seen by the deity and to gain the blessings. There are thousands of Siva sthalams- pilgrimage sites - renowned for their divine images. And it is for the Darsan of these divine images as well the pilgrimage places themselves - which are believed to be the natural places where Gods have dwelled - the pilgrimage is made.

  • Stylesheet IJIE
    IRIE International Review of Information Ethics Vol. 9 (08/2008) Patheneni Sivaswaroop: The Internet and Hinduism – A Study Abstract: This paper discusses some results of a sample study on how Hindus are using the internet for religious pur- poses comparing their on-line and off-line religious activities. The behaviour is similar to those reported for different religions from different countries. But it is found that 74% of the sample pray daily, where only 16% go daily to a local temple. This seems to be a major difference between Western and the Hindu religions. In Hinduism going to temple is secondary, as each Hindu house has generally a pooja (room/corner). The survey reports and the uses of the internet by Hindus as well as whether the internet increases religious tolerance or hatred.

  • The Indian Wedding for Dummies Indiansamourai 27-03-2014 Http
    The Indian Wedding for Dummies The "Indian wedding" (I should say the Hindu wedding to be exact) has made the subject of numerous books, movies, visits to India. In short it’s an institution. I will try here to understand something to it! The Indian wedding for Dummies - 1. The arranged marriage Arranged marriage: and why not?! Let's make the distinction between arranged marriage and forced marriage. If I can de-dramatize arranged marriages (read below), it is impossible to do the same with forced marriages which are still widely practiced in India: 40% of women do not have a word in the choice of the husband, less than 20% of women (over 25) knew their husbands before the fateful day and worse, almost 50% of women have married before the legal age of 18 (source http://www.thehindu.com/news/national/many-women-have-no-say-in- marriage/article5801893.ece ). Which means that there are still thousands of people (Hindus) who, each year, follow the tradition and find out whom they are going spend the rest of their lives with only when they are already married: SURPRISE! As per the custom to groom arrives first, and his view is hidden with a bed sheet, which is removed once the bride is brought in by her maternal uncle and cousins and the consent of the parents exchanged. The bed sheet is simply a less sexy version (but more promising ;)) of the veil used in Catholic marriages, originally to hide the face of the bride (source http://www.le- mariage.com/traditions/ )).

    Proceeding of the Global Conference on Journalism and Mass Communication, Vol. 1, Issue 1, 2018, pp. 1-5 Copyright © 2018 TIIKM ISSN 2602-862X online DOI: https://doi.org/10.17501/globalmedia.2018.1101 IMPACT OF ADVANCEMENTS IN TECHNOLOGICAL AIDS IN COMMUNICATION MEDIA IN BRINGING ABOUT SOCIAL REFORMATION Keshav Patel* MGCGVV Chitrakoot (MP), India Abstract: Communication medium have evolved ever since the ancient times. Indian Hindu mythology provides examples of great communicators like Narad and Hanuman who provide the earliest glimpses of journalism. Interestingly, Hindu mythology and the modern communication media have not been connected, though the literature available brings about valid connections of transformation in this communication media for the purpose of social welfare. The present paper delves into presenting a developmental picture connecting ancient India to the modern India with respect to the communication media and its role in social reformation. Analysis of mythological identities and furthermore through a series of extensive reading done by the author made believe that the motive of journalism and social participation was to bring about a social change. This study is based on connections based on descriptions available on characters and identities from Hindu mythology. The path of development of communication media has been traced down with the technological advancements in the form of chronological development of the aids and their impact on social reformation. The mythological Indian characters have passed on through stories and Vedas which have scattered appearance in the form of concrete literature. It can be seen that communication media has been instrumental in impacting the social reformation at all times.
