  • Ramayan Ki Kathayen, Pandemic and the Hindu Way of Life and the Contribution of Hindu Women, Amongst Others
    Hindu Sevika Samiti (UK) Mahila Shibir 2020 East and South Midlands Vibhag FOREWORD INSPIRING AND UNPRECEDENTED INITIATIVE In an era of mass consumerism - not only of material goods - but of information, where society continues to be led by dominant and parochial ideas, the struggle to make our stories heard, has been limited. But the tides are slowly turning and is being led by the collaborative strength of empowered Hindu women from within our community. The Covid-19 pandemic has at once forced us to cancel our core programs - which for decades had brought us together to pursue our mission to develop value-based leaders - but also allowed us the opportunity to collaborate in other, more innovative ways. It gives me immense pride that Hindu Sevika Samiti (UK) have set a new precedent for the trajectory of our work. As a follow up to the successful Mahila Shibirs in seven vibhags attended by over 500 participants, 342 Mahila sevikas came together to write 411 articles on seven different topics which will be presented in the form of seven e-books. I am very delighted to launch this collection which explores topics such as: The uniqueness of Bharat, Ramayan ki Kathayen, Pandemic and the Hindu way of life and The contribution of Hindu women, amongst others. From writing to editing, content checking to proofreading, the entire project was conducted by our Sevikas. This project has revealed hidden talents of many mahilas in writing essays and articles. We hope that these skills are further encouraged and nurtured to become good writers which our community badly lacks.

  • Gautama One of the Saptarishis, Gautama Maharishi Was an Ancient Rigvedic Sage, Who Also Finds Mention in Buddhism and Jainism
    Newsletter Archives www.dollsofindia.com Ancient Rishis of India - Part 1 Copyright © 2019, DollsofIndia India is a highly spiritual land, which houses several Rishis, mendicants and Godmen. Hindu mythology prominently features Rishis, their wives and their families in several stories. In fact, many of these Rishis actually played the role of catalysts, helping Devas, Asuras, divine beings and earthlings release their karma, thus bringing good, joy and peace back into their lives. Even today, we can find rishis meditating in the secret crevices of the Himalayas and some hidden caves of the Gangotri and Yamunotri. These sages have chosen to move away from the maddening crowd of civilization and moved to those remote areas in order to attain ultimate peace, mukti and, finally, moksha or liberation, during this lifetime. In this month's article, we bring you a feature on some of the most ancient Rishis of India. While most of them are males, there are a few female yoginis and sages who are equally, if not more powerful. There are several hundreds of rishis that we can talk about. In this two-part series, we bring you the stories of some of the most important and most ancient sages of this land. Agastya Agastya was a much-revered Vedic sage, who was famous for his reclusive nature. He was a great scholar and was knowledgeable in multiple languages. He and his wife, Lopamudra, are the celebrated authors of hymns in the Rigveda and other Vedic literature. He is also venerated in Puranic literature of Shaktism and Vaishnavism. Agastya prominently features in several ancient Hindu scriptures and tales, such as the Ramayana and Mahabharata.

  • Crowned by Star and Sky, Vol. 1, Iss. 1, The
    BY STAR WNED AND SK CRO Y Descended from the Stars Vol. 1, Iss. 2 Editor'sNote irst and foremost, great thanks is in order. To all of you who helped us pull this together, F we are ever grateful. We hope that you’ll all stick with us as we muddle through the growing pangs, because truly it is you who make this zine what it is. Thank you. I feel a distinct connection between this quarter’s theme, Descended from the Stars, and the title of our zine. To be Crowned by Star and Sky is to be above the world, with the whole of the universe as a weight upon your brow. Descending from that ultimate height and divinity, from the stars that are the crown of the goddess, there we find the hosts of heaven rushing past. Descending from the Stars, we fall to earth and are reminded of the mortal realm. For me, that is what makes it a relatable tale and lends its divinity to our very human element. We may be made of stars, but it is still a journey from them to us. That concept is one we hear a lot within the pagan community, that we each are made of that which the stars are made. Sometimes it’s tossed out with a jest, in poetic frivolity, and at other moments it is spoken with soft reverence. It is a truth though, within the bounds of science, animism, and religion alike. For we each are created with a spark of divinity - for life itself is a divine thing - just as we are each molecularly tied to the minute functions of all the cosmos around us.
