We divide the period into two distinct periods: 1991-2000 and 2001-2010. The trends in the production of cereal crops, pulses and cash crops were observed using mean comparison t test and dummy variable regression model. The statistical and simple econometric exercises support the noticeable change occurred in the cropping pattern in the Yavatmal district during the period of economic reforms. The production of wheat was increased marginally during the period, but production of jowar crops drastically declined. The crops such as soybean and sunflower took overjowar during the study period. The trend showing decrease in overall production of cereals is a cause of concern for the government in particular and public in general. If the trend continues, it would be worrisome in terms of production of traditional crops. Keywords: Cropping pattern, trends, Maharashtra, economic reforms Maharashtra has more heterogeneity in crop consists of 16 Talukas. It is a major cotton producing production and cropping pattern arising from its district of Maharashtra. The district boundary varied agro-climatic conditions. Cropping pattern in touches five districts of Maharashtra namely the state varies from region to region.

Specifically, three main themes are explored: first, a theoretical engagement of the concept of death based on the (Western) philosophy of existentialism, second, a review of the historical origins and philosophy of the Aghori sect, and third, a depiction of the Aghoris as a living example of vigorously accepting death as an inevitability of life.

  • Shiva, the Destroyer and the Restorer
    Shiva, The Destroyer and the Restorer DR.RUPNATHJI( DR.RUPAK NATH ) 7 SHIV TATTVA In Me the universe had its origin, In Me alone the whole subsists; In Me it is lost-Siva, The Timeless, it is I Myself, Sivoham! Sivoham! Sivoham! Salutations to Lord Shiva, the vanquisher of Cupid, the bestower of eternal bliss and Immortality, the protector of all beings, destroyer of sins, the Lord of the gods, who wears a tiger-skin, the best among objects of worship, through whose matted hair the Ganga flows. Lord Shiva is the pure, changeless, attributeless, all-pervading transcendental consciousness. He is the inactive (Nishkriya) Purusha (Man). Prakriti is dancing on His breast and performing the creative, preservative and destructive processes. When there is neither light nor darkness, neither form nor energy, neither sound nor matter, when there is no manifestation of phenomenal existence, Shiva alone exists in Himself. He is timeless, spaceless, birthless, deathless, decayless. He is beyond the pairs of opposites. He is the Impersonal Absolute Brahman. He is untouched by pleasure and pain, good and evil. He cannot be seen by the eyes but He can be realised within the heart through devotion and meditation. Shiva is also the Supreme personal God when He is identified with His power. He is then omnipotent, omniscient active God. He dances in supreme joy and creates, sustains and destroys with the rhythm of His dancing movements. DR.RUPNATHJI( DR.RUPAK NATH ) He destroys all bondage, limitation and sorrow of His devotees. He is the giver of Mukti or the final emancipation.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Anthropology - Dissertations by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Aghoreshwar Mahaprabhu Baba Bhagawan Ram Ji, a well-established saint of the holy city of Varanasi in north India, initiated many changes into the erstwhile Aghor tradition of ascetics in India. This tradition is regarded as an ancient system of spiritual or mystical knowledge by its practitioners and at least some of the practices followed in this tradition can certainly be traced back at least to the time of the Buddha. Over the course of the centuries practitioners of this tradition have interacted with groups of other mystical traditions, exchanging ideas and practices so that both parties in the exchange appear to have been influenced by the other. Naturally, such an interaction between groups can lead to difficulty in determining a clear course of development of the tradition. In this dissertation I bring together micro-history, hagiography, folklore, religious and comparative studies together in an attempt to understand how this modern day religious-spiritual tradition has been shaped by the past and the role religion has to play in modern life, if only with reference to a single case study.
