  • Haridwar 2021 / Kumbh Mela
    Haridwar 2021 / Kumbh Mela “E’ meraviglioso il potere di una fede, cosa può fare quando moltitudini di vecchi e giovani entrano senza esitazione o lamentele in viaggi così incredibili e sopportare le miserie risultanti senza replicare. E’ fatto nell’amore o nella paura; non so quale sia. Non importa quale sia l’impulso; l’atto che ne deriva è oltre l’immaginazione, meravigliosa per il nostro genere di persone, bianchi senza calore” “Mark Twain dopo aver partecipato a Kumbh Mela nel 1895 Non c'è occasione migliore per visitare l'India durante Kumbh Mela, che non è solo il più grande festival indiano ma è anche il più grande raduno di persone per il beneficio spirituale. Milioni di devoti da ogni parte del mondo si radunano in uno dei luoghi più sacri per gli indù: Haridwar, letteralmente “Porta di Dio situata ai piedi dell'Himalaya”. Kumbh ha un significato diverso per ogni persona. Dipende da come lo si vuole percepire. Per coloro che cercano la spiritualità, è un luogo divino con tutti i guru spirituali intorno. Per i viaggiatori, è un'esperienza partecipare al più grande raduno di persone giunte non solo dall'India ma da tutto il mondo. Per i fotografi, offre l'opportunità di catturare immagini straordinarie, i vari stati d'animo, l’abbigliamento e la fede delle persone che non trovano riscontro in nessun'altra parte del pianeta. Per i ricercatori, rendersi conto e analizzare un progetto su come creare in così poco tempo un insediamento urbano di vasta dimensione, di organizzare e saper controllare una così grande moltitudine di persone.

  • Introduction of the Bodos
    Chapter 2 Introduction of the Bodos India is a meeting ground of diverse races, cultures, civilizations, religions, languages, ethnic groups and societies. Streams of different human races like Austro-Asiatic, Negritos, Dravidians, Alpines, Indo-Mongoloids, Tibeto-Burman and Aryans penetrated in India at different periods through different routes .They migrated and settled in different parts of India making their own history, culture and civilization. They had contributed to the structuring of the great Indian culture, history and civilization. The Tibeto-Burman people are predominant in whole North-Eastern region. The Bodos are one of the earliest settlers in Assam. The older generation of scholars used the term 'Bodo' to denote the earliest Indo- Mongoloid migrants to eastern India who subsequently spread over different regions of Bengal, Assam and Tripura. Grierson identifies the Bodos as a section of the Assam-Burma group of the Tibeto-Burman speakers belonging to the Sino-Tibetan speech family.1 S.K. Chatterjee subscribes to the same view. According to him these people migrated to eastern India in the second millennium B.C. and a large portion of them was absorbed within societies of plains-man at quite an early state.2 Isolation caused fragmentation of the original stock and ultimately the branches assumed independent tribal identities like the Tipra, the Bodo-Kachari, the Rabha, the Dimsasa, the Chutiya etc. Rev. Sydney Endle, in his monograph, The Kacharis, used 'The Kachari' in the same wider sense incorporating all these branches. In present day socio-political terminology 'the Bodo' means the plain tribes of the Brahmaputra Valley known earlier as 'the Bodo-Kachari'.

  • An Overview of Impact of Modern Technology on Assamese Culture, Language and Literature
    JOURNAL OF CRITICAL REVIEWS ISSN- 2394-5125 VOL 7, ISSUE 01, 2020 An overview of impact of modern technology on Assamese culture, language and literature Anurupa Chutia Assistant Professor, Department of Assamese,Dhemaji College,Assam, India Abstract It is an acknowledged and well known fact that Modern technology has a direct interference in every walk of human life in today’s world. Owing to the landmark developments that modern technology has achieved in recent decades, these technological revolutions have left their mark on almost everything, including language and literature. The recent scientific-technological revolutions of human civilization have had a significant impact on Assamese language and literature as well. In this paper, I will try to discuss how the modern technology has affected Assameseculture, language and literature in both negatively and positively on one hand, while on the other I would like to address its impact on literary forms of this rich language. Key words:- Assamese language, medium, education, mother tongue, regional language, Corresponding author:[email protected] 1.0 Introduction:- Assam is one of the Eight Sister states of northeastern India. Known for its rich culture and dive rse population, the culture of Assam is a fusion of Indo Burmese, Mongolian and Aryan influences. This beautiful land, known as the 'land of red rivers and blue hills' is a little paradise with untouched natural landscapes worth to be traversed for its pristine beauty. The people of the state are collectively called Axomiyas and the language Axomiya (Assamese) which is also the most widely spoken official state language. No doubt, Assam is the meeting ground of diverse cultures.
