While almost three-quarters of the avocado's calories come from fat, most of it is healthy fat. More specifically, the avocado contains monounsaturated fats that are known to reduce low-density lipoprotein (LDL) cholesterol and are believed to help increase the good kind of cholesterol, high- density lipoproteins (HDL's). The avocado also has 60 percent more potassium than a banana. In addition, the avocado’s nutritional composition includes a large amount of fiber. Almost three-quarters of that fiber is insoluble with the rest being soluble fiber. One-fifth of an avocado, typically considered a serving, contains: 50 calories, 4.5 g of fat, & nearly 20 nutrients including potassium, vitamins K, B & C & folate without cholesterol. PicTURE Ingredients Preparation Ingredients and method to make In a large bowl, mix together whole wheat flour, salt, red chili powder, Avocado Roti cumin powder , green chilies, finely chopped cilantro and keep aside. 2 cups whole wheat flour (atta) 1 1/4 tsp salt (or to taste) Peel an avocado, cut in half , remove the seed and mash the avocado 1/2 tsp red chili powder into a pulp. 1/2 tsp cumin powder 2 Indian or Thai variety green chilies Mix the mashed avocado into the flour, add water as required and slit lengthwise and cut fine knead to form a soft and non sticky dough. It took me almost 3/4 of a (optional) cup of water, but you may need a little less or more depending on the 1 large avocado peeled, deseeded size of your avocado and the type of flour you use. and mashed well. (yielded approximately 3/4 cup mashed) Cover the dough and let sit for at least 30 minutes or so. 2 tbsp finely chopped cilantro (coriander leaves) Divide dough into equal lemon sized balls. water as required (approximately 3/4 cup) Some other healthy substitutes in everyday life are: Avocado Chutney - Replace half of the quantity you have for coriander with same amount of avocado while making green chutney. Use guacamole instead of butter for sandwiches, grinders or paninis. BOT Corner Dear Members Jai Jinendra and Pranam!

  • Bovine Benefactories: an Examination of the Role of Religion in Cow Sanctuaries Across the United States
    BOVINE BENEFACTORIES: AN EXAMINATION OF THE ROLE OF RELIGION IN COW SANCTUARIES ACROSS THE UNITED STATES _______________________________________________________________ A Dissertation Submitted to the Temple University Graduate Board _______________________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY ________________________________________________________________ by Thomas Hellmuth Berendt August, 2018 Examing Committee Members: Sydney White, Advisory Chair, TU Department of Religion Terry Rey, TU Department of Religion Laura Levitt, TU Department of Religion Tom Waidzunas, External Member, TU Deparment of Sociology ABSTRACT This study examines the growing phenomenon to protect the bovine in the United States and will question to what extent religion plays a role in the formation of bovine sanctuaries. My research has unearthed that there are approximately 454 animal sanctuaries in the United States, of which 146 are dedicated to farm animals. However, of this 166 only 4 are dedicated to pigs, while 17 are specifically dedicated to the bovine. Furthermore, another 50, though not specifically dedicated to cows, do use the cow as the main symbol for their logo. Therefore the bovine is seemingly more represented and protected than any other farm animal in sanctuaries across the United States. The question is why the bovine, and how much has religion played a role in elevating this particular animal above all others. Furthermore, what constitutes a sanctuary? Does

  • A Tribute to Hinduism
    Quotes Basics Science History Social Other Search h o m e u n k n o w n h i n d u r e v i v a l i s t s c o n t e n t s Of the many nineteenth-century Indo-Western cultural confrontations, none was more troublesome than that of evangelical Christianity's challenge to indigenous religious beliefs and practices. The British conquest of most of the subcontinent had thrust aside the indigenous rulers and their pattern of rule, as well as an increasingly aggressive propagation of the Christian gospel by Western missionaries. The East India Company's initial policies toward Christian missionaries were at best ambivalent. Until pressure at home was created by the evangelical Christian interests, the British parliament eliminated these restrictions in the charter renewals of 1813 and 1833, opening British India to missionary endeavor. While some Britons admired the achievements of Indian civilization, others, including the evangelical Charles Grant, believed that India was a backward place, stagnated by Hindu beliefs and practices. If Britain was obligated to uplift India, then surely Hinduism, which Grant conceived as the ultimate source of India's many social evils, must be undermined. As early as the 1830's Christian representatives were visiting towns in the remote corners of the countryside. As these endeavors became more widespread, so too did popular antipathy and antagonism. It is generally accepted by most scholars on the subject that in many Asian countries political nationalism was preceded by religious awakenings that arose in response to Christian missionary activities.

They’re playing defense with verve and creativity—blocking ugly and destructive projects that wreck landscapes and lives. And defense is crucial. As generations of sports coaches have delighted in pointing out, defense wins games. But we’re very far behind in the global warming game, so we need some offense too. And here’s what offense looks like: going directly after the fossil fuel industry and holding it accountable for the rapid warming of the planet. It’s the richest and most arrogant industry the world has ever seen. Call it Powersandprincipalities, Inc. And where once it served a real social need—energy— it now stands squarely in the way of getting that energy from safe, renewable sources. Its business plan—sell more coal, gas and oil—is at odds with what every climate scientist now says is needed for planetary survival. If that sounds shocking, sorry: a lifetime of Exxon ads haven’t prepared us for the reality that Exxon is a first-class villain, any more than a lifetime of looking at the Marlboro Man prepared us to understand lung cancer.

  • Indology and Marxist Hermeneutics by Dr
    Indology and Marxist Hermeneutics By Dr. Pankaj Jain 1. Introduction Although Indian civilization has been one of the most extensively researched fields in the Western Humanities departments, it remains one of the most misinterpreted subjects. Scholars have applied various theories and methods to study this ancient field. However, often their analyses and interpretations fail to do justice to this complex tradition. In the name of “scientific objectivity”, they have often applied their own subjective bias. In this paper, I endeavor to demonstrate how the theories of Marx have misinterpreted Indian culture. 2. Foundations of Marxism Many of the earliest researchers to venture into Indology were Marxist historians. For instance, from the 1850s on, Karl Marx carefully studied India as a colonial country where diverse forms and methods of colonial rule had been practiced. He also took interest in India because she still retained, to a certain degree, relations peculiar to primitive communal society (Marx 2001). He also studied the freedom struggle of India (Marx 1986). The first major Indian scholar to apply the Marxist theories to Indology was D. D. Kosambi (Kosambi 1956). His study of Indian culture marked the first major application of Marxism among the Indian scholars (Kosambi 1962). He was one of the co-founders of the Mecca of Indian Marxists, Jawaharlal Nehru University. Let us examine how Marxist scholars have applied their ideology to Indology. Whereas the foundation of Marxism is materialism, in Indic traditions religion is a fundamental ideology of every sphere of life, sociology, culture, politics, economics and even family life. Therefore, any scholar based solely on Marxism can hardly study a tradition rooted in religion, especially if one does not take the Paul Ricoeur approach.

  • Exploring India: from Alex to Bill
    Exploring India: From Alex to Bill Class meetings: Xyzdays 00:00-00:00pm, classAddress Instructor: Pankaj Jain, [email protected], 402, Gilmore Hall Office hours: 10:00-12:00pm, Wednesdays or by appointment Course Description Journey into India’s “discovery” by the western world from the times of Alexander to the recent visits by Bill Clinton and Bill Gates. We will study how Indic traditions received and in turn influenced the non-Indic cultures of various culture. Our first milestone in this journey will be Alexander’s arrival in western India before the Common Era. Next in our time line will be the encounters of Indians with Middle-Easterners in the medieval periods, followed by European missionaries and other colonial powers. Our final destination will be contemporary western scholarship about India and Hinduism. Bon Voyage! Goals and Objectives Today, we live in a global economy. But economic interdependence is not by themselves sufficient to create a universal human community. For this we require a human consciousness of community, a sense of inter- cultural relationship. One of the ancient countries India has interacted with many different cultures over its history and this course traces some such examples. The objective is to develop an understanding of how cultural exchanges occurred in the past and what we can learn from such examples. Course Requirements Weekly postings Students will post to the course bulletin board (accessible through WebCT) a response to the weekly readings. Responses should be about one page in length. These submissions are a required part of the coursework. Content is more important than form; you should try to avoid spelling and grammar mistakes, but your postings are not expected to be polished essays.
