It is not meant to be a study ofthe Mahabharat. That could be studied for an entire year or more. This booklet is limited to the important events which led up to the battle ofKurlLkshetra. We speak often in our classes ofKrishna and the Bhagavad Gita and the Battle ofKurukshetra. But for the new student, or student llnfamiliar with the history ofthe Pandavas, these topics don't have much significance ifthey fail to understand the reasons behind the Bhagavad Gita being spoken (on a battlefield, yet!). This session will provide the background needed for children to go on to explore the teachulgs ofBhagavad Gita. You may have a classroonl filled with childrel1 who know these events well. Or you may have a class who has never heard ofthe Pandavas. You will likely have some ofeach. The way you teach your class should be determined from what the children already know. Students familiar with Mahabharat can absorb many more details and adventures. Young children and children new to the subject should learn the basics well.

  • The Straight Path: Islam Interpreted by Muslims by Kenneth W. Morgan
    Islam -- The Straight Path: Islam Interpreted by Muslims return to religion-online 47 Islam -- The Straight Path: Islam Interpreted by Muslims by Kenneth W. Morgan Kenneth W. Morgan is Professor of history and comparative religions at Colgate University. Published by The Ronald Press Company, New York 1958. This material was prepared for Religion Online by Ted and Winnie Brock. (ENTIRE BOOK) A collection of essays written by Islamic leaders for Western readers. Chapters describe Islam's origin, ideas, movements and beliefs, and its different manifestations in Africa, Turkey, Pakistan, India, China and Indonesia. Preface The faith of Islam, and the consequences of that faith, are described in this book by devout Muslim scholars. This is not a comparative study, nor an attempt to defend Islam against what Muslims consider to be Western misunderstandings of their religion. It is simply a concise presentation of the history and spread of Islam and of the beliefs and obligations of Muslims as interpreted by outstanding Muslim scholars of our time. Chapter 1: The Origin of Islam by Mohammad Abd Allah Draz The straight path of Islam requires submission to the will of God as revealed in the Qur’an, and recognition of Muhammad as the Messenger of God who in his daily life interpreted and exemplified that divine revelation which was given through him. The believer who follows that straight path is a Muslim. Chapter 2: Ideas and Movements in Islamic History, by Shafik Ghorbal The author describes the history and problems of the Islamic society from the time of the prophet Mohammad as it matures to modern times.

  • The Great Indian Novel 60
    Q CHAPTER THREE THE GREAT INDIAN NOVEL 60 The Great Indian Novel published in 1989, derives its title from the ancient epic, the Mahabhamta. Shashi Tharoor has taken the Mahabharata as a blueprint and filled it with a contemporary cast for his witty rendering of pre-independent and post-independent India. The history of India's struggle against colonial rule and her postcolonial assignation with democracy is presented in an epic vein. Unlike the epic of Vyas, the novel is divided into eighteen books. Its narrative is presented in a multi-coloured style and digressive manner. It seems to take an alternative, specifically new historicist view, of the way modem India should be meditated. The novel indeed has some sterling qualities. The historical narrative follows the line of the Mahabharata to provide insight into current politics and the epic through Indo-nostalgic narration. A literal transplantation of the characters of the epic by actual men and women of history on a one-to-one formula tends on the one hand, to make a caricature of the historical events and on the other hand to ignore the borders between myth and history. In a seminar essay entitled 'Myth, History and Fiction' Tharoor (1991:384) states: The Great Indian Novel is an attempt to retell the political history of twentieth century India through a fictional recasting of events, episodes and characters from the Mahabharata. Further, he (1990:7) calls his novel as "An attempt of yoking of myth to history." As the novel advances, he gradually abandons the novelistic conventions and the characters become walking metaphors to project Indo-nostalgia.

  • Royal Image and Political Thinking in the Letters of Assurbanipal
    Royal Image and Political Thinking in the Letters of Assurbanipal SANAE ITO Academic dissertation to be publicly discussed, by due permission of the Faculty of Arts at the University of Helsinki, in Hall 5 on 15 April 2015 at 10 o’clock. University of Helsinki, Department of World Cultures Helsinki 2015 Sanae Ito Royal Image and Political Thinking in the Letters of Assurbanipal Copyright © Sanae Ito 2015 ISBN 978-951-51-0972-9 (Paperback) ISBN 978-951-51-0973-6 (PDF) UNIGRAFIA Helsinki University Print Helsinki 2015 To T. ABSTRACT Assurbanipal, the last great king of the Assyrian Empire (934-609 BC), ruled from 668 BC until at least 630 BC. He had to spend four years suppressing a revolt by Šamaš-šumu-ukīn, his older brother and the king of Babylon (667-648 BC), but his reign was much longer than his predecessors and he controlled almost all the area of the Ancient Near East. One of the essential bodies of research material on his reign is his correspondence, which has never before been studied in detail because much of it has been published in cuneiform copies only. His extant correspondence consists of 359 letters: 72 letters from him (the so-called royal letters) and 287 letters to him. Royal letters are particularly rare in the Assyrian correspondence and Assurbanipal’s royal letters outnumber those of his predecessors, hence this dissertation focuses on them. The letters deal with political, military, and diplomatic matters through the king’s point of view and in his words. The aim of this research has been to find out what image Assurbanipal tried to convey in his letters and how he utilized the image in order to further Assyrian policies.

  • Ganesh Chaturthi
    Weblog: http://phanikiran2informative.wordpress.com/ Ganesh Chaturthi Haritalika (Vrat) Teej ill-effects of Chandra darshan on Ganesh Chaturth Weblog: http://phanikiran2informative.wordpress.com/ This year Ganesh Chaturthi (Vinayak Chaturthi) falls on the Thursday, 1 September 2011 . It is extremely harmful to look at the Moon on Ganesh-Chaturthi. Therefore be very careful not to look at the moon on that night. If one happens to look at the Moon on the night of Ganesh-Chaturthi, then no matter how innocent one is, one will definitely be defamed. Even Lord Krishna was accused of having stolen the ‘Syamantak Mani’ because of looking at the Moon on this night. However, if you look at the Moon on the 3rd and 5th nights of that lunar month, the harmful effects caused by seeing the Moon on the 4th lunar night is countered. In any case, if by mistake you do happen to look at the Moon on this night, read or listen to the episode narrating the theft of the Syamantak Mani as described in the 56th and 57th chapters of the tenth Skanda of the Srimad Bhagawata . Ill Effects of Chandra Darshan & it’s Remedies Sri Ganesha (Vinayak) Chaturthi On the 4th day of the bright half of Bhadrapad (August-September), the great festival of Ganesh or Ganpati is celebrated. This festival marked the birthday of Lord Ganesh. Ganpati is one of the most popular deities. Both Shaivites and Vaishnavites worship him. Even Buddhists and Jains have respect for Ganpati. He is considered to be an avatar of both Shiva and Vishnu.
