Absolutely Amazing Book !By GautamThis book is yet another classic piece of work from Devdutt. I have thoroughly enjoyed reading it and I love the way he has brought out the meaning of Gita in this book. In My Gita, acclaimed mythologist Devdutt Pattanaik demystifies The Bhagavad Gita for the contemporary reader. His unique approach-thematic rather than verse-by-verse-makes the ancient treatise eminently accessible, combined as it is with his trademark illustrations and simple diagrams. In a world that seems spellbound by argument over dialogue, vi-vaad over sam-vaad, Devdutt highlights how Krishna nudges Arjuna to understand rather than judge his relationships. This becomes relevant today when we are increasingly indulging and isolating the self (self- improvement, self-actualization, self-realization-even selfies!).We forget that we live in an ecosystem of others, where we can nourish each other with food, love and meaning, even when we fight. So let My Gita inform your Gita. About the AuthorDevdutt Pattanaik writes and lectures on the relevance of mythology in modern times. He has written over 500 articles in newspapers, and thirty books, which include Jaya: An Illustrated Retelling of the Mahabharata, Sita: An Illustrated Retelling of the Ramayana, 7 Secrets of Hindu Calendar Art, 7 Secrets of Shiva, 7 Secrets of Vishnu, 7 Secrets of the Goddess, The Book of Ram, 99 Thoughts on Ganesha, Shikhandi and Other Tales They Don't Tell You and Myth=Mithya: Decoding Hindu Mythology.

The Ramayana is vastly popular to this day despite having oral traditions beginning somewhere in the 2nd Century BCE which were later written, translated in several languages and much later retold, enacted and televised. Pattanaik’s work is a recent retelling of the Ramayana with the title of Sita and was published in the year 2013. There have been several studies on the Ramayana from several perspectives and on all its various genres. I chose Pattanaik’s retelling as the title ‘Sita’ held great promise for I expected a different interpretation. Instead I found a celebration of the conventional and typical Sita. Pattanaik’s treatment is dignified and magnanimous with Sita as a Goddess. His tone is formal and reverential and at the end of each chapter there are stories from various retellings with critical references. Despite all this the narrative, I believe is limited and does not the raise the societal arguments necessary.

Gayathry Sunil, 2. Vyshnavi V.U, 3. Indu A.S 1. P.G Student 2. P.G Student 3. Assistant Professor Department of English, Amrita Vishwa Vidyapeetham, Amritapuri, India Article History: Received: 10 January 2021; Revised: 12 February 2021; Accepted: 27 March 2021; Published online: 28 April 2021 Abstract Mythology plays an important role in the progression of society. It has a direct impact on the readers as well as civilization. Indian literature is diverse. It is a collectionof literature from otherlanguages such as Tamil, Marathi, Odiya, Bengali, Sanskrit, Hindi, Urdu, Malayalam, Gujarati, etc. All these writings somehow explore the merits and the demerits of a specific region’s decorum. Dr. Devdutt Pattanaik is a writer, illustrator, mythologist and lecturer, who is very much absorbed in transmitting the pertinence of past and mythology in the modern era. He uses mythology as a tool to estimate society. His work Shikhandi And Other Queer Tales They Don’t Tell You is a collection of short stories from different Indian mythologies that exposes queer elements. This paper attempts to make an analysis of queerness in today’s society with the support of Pattanaik’s this prominent work. Also, social issues like gender parity, feminism, patriarchy, queerness, etc. are vividly discussed with the aid of mythology. The book creates a broad spectrum for the reader with the kaleidoscopic eyes of Pattanaik.

Evaluating the Validity of Devdutt Pattanaik's Management
Interdisciplinary and Cultural Synergies 23 FICTIONALISING FACTS OR FACTUALISING FICTION: EVALUATING THE VALIDITY OF DEVDUTT PATTANAIK’S MANAGEMENT LESSONS DRAWN FROM MYTHOLOGY Minouti NAIK1 Abstract In India there has been a debate about whether the two primary epics of Hindu mythology – Ramayana and Mahabharata – are facts or fiction. In parallel, a body of nonfiction seeking inspiration from mythology has emerged from India and a new trend of drawing management lessons from Indian myths has become very popular. An author, who has resorted to this practice in his writing is Devdutt Pattanaik who has produced works in this genre for the past 20 years. By analysing Pattanaik’s five management related books and varied articles, this paper examines the feasibility of applying mythology to deriving management lessons, thus determining whether this has added value to the texts and the genre, or rather resulted in their devaluation. Keywords: mythology, nonfiction, management, frameworks. 1. Introduction Myths are, in fact...neither primitive nor untrue. They are, rather, a kind of poetry that helps us make sense of the world and our place in it. - Stephen H. Furrer Mythology holds a significant place within a culture. It colours stories we hear/read as children and makes its way into our life as adults, when we develop the faculty of appreciating art, where many a mythological tale is imagined and portrayed by artists, writers and poets. Mythology impacts language through phrases like ‘Pandora’s box’ or ‘Herculean effort’ that get coined not just through literature and poetry, but also through various metaphors, associated with characters from mythology.

Sita: an Illustrated Retelling of the Ramayana PDF Book
SITA: AN ILLUSTRATED RETELLING OF THE RAMAYANA PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Dr. Devdutt Pattanaik | 328 pages | 19 Feb 2014 | Penguin Books India Pvt Ltd | 9780143064329 | English | New Delhi, India Sita: An Illustrated Retelling of the Ramayana PDF Book The cycle goes on and on. Unlike Mahabharata, Ramayana is considered to be a much simpler tale with lesser diversions and sub-tales, but here in Sita, you get all that there is to read and understand about the story of Ram - the seventh incarnate of Lord Vishnu. Sep 28, Gorab Jain rated it really liked it Shelves: buddy-reads , indian , z , mythology. Their conversations make it easy for the readers to understand the personalities and thought process of various actors. This book just seems like it was written by someone else. The title appears to be picked to throw you off, give the impression that this is another point of view of the Ramayan. Dec 07, Ananya Vetaal rated it it was amazing. This seems a deliberate souring of an uplifting narrative. Devdutt Pattanaik. Her attitude is icing on the cake. The author is not trying to tell a compelling tale, he just tries to tell a complete tale. It is significant that the only character in Hindu mythology, a king at that, to be given the title of ekam-patni-vrata, devoted to a single wife, is associated with the most unjust act of abandoning her in the forest to protect family reputation. This book approaches Ram by speculating on Sita—her childhood with her father, Janak, who hosted sages mentioned in the Upanishads; her stay in the forest with her husband who had to be a celibate ascetic while she was in the prime of her youth; her interactions with the women of Lanka, recipes she exchanged, emotions they shared; her connection with the earth, her mother; her role as the Goddess, the untamed Kali as well as the demure Gauri, in transforming the stoic prince of Ayodhya into God.

Try it; you won't have to wade through alternating pages of Devanagari.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Stained glass in stoneBy Rick CrawfordWestern minds understand the usage of stained glass in the western churches. Pattananaik makes very clear the symbolism inherent in the ancient stone and bronzes of Bharata. This review is worlds away from conveying what a sincere reader might realize from his culture. Beautifully done!!! I look forward to reading more of his work.2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. EnlighteningBy ManishAs with all the other books of Mt Pattanaik, you learn so much about the philosophy of Hinduism. The book goes through various avataras of Vishnu and also what Vishnu signifies and how he differs from Shiva.I highly recommend this book to anyone trying to understand Hinduism philosophically. Many things in Hinduism which are ritualistic and lack sense actually make alot of sense after reading Devdutt Pattanaik's books.

Chapter One: Introduction: Definition of Myth and Myth in Indian Fiction In
Chapter One: Introduction: Definition of Myth and Myth in Indian Fiction in English Literature has always shown profound interest and fascination for mythology. From epics, to poetry, to novels, myths have pervaded every genre transgressing the boundaries of age, culture and language. Indian literature is no exception as it feeds the ardent desire of Indians to be enriched by myths, mythology, legends and folklore. From times immemorial, mythology with its thrilling twists, villainous evil acts, the final victory of goodness over evil along with its freed kingdoms, has been a perpetual source of inspiration to Indian writers. Despite the antiquity, Indian mythology continues to indelibly impress upon Indian writers in their choice of subjects, themes and plots. Definitions of Myth An in-depth analysis of how myth has been defined variedly is essential for a better understanding of the intricate relationship between myth and literature. Myths have been studied and explored, interpreted, and defined in various ways from time to time by critics and philosophers in political, social and cultural contexts. In his The Texture of Culture (2012), Aleksei Semenenko mentions that the beauty of myths lies in the fact that they do not “belong exclusively to the past and archaic cultures but constitutes an intrinsic part of modern culture as well” (40). The definition of myth in contemporary times has become very vague, loose and broad as myth operates universally and diversely. 1 Myths evade fix definitions and are beyond orderly classification because of the obscurity of its origin and ambiguity of its meaning. Myths are practically beyond analysis and scrutiny because of their diversity.
