  • In the Name of Krishna: the Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town
    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

  • Uttarakhand Flood Relief
    Uttarakhand Flood Relief By RAMAKRISHNA MISSION SEVASHRAMA (A Branch of Ramakrishna Mission, Belur Math, Howrah, WB) P.O. Kankhal—249408 Haridwar (Uttarakhand) Phone: (01334) 244176, 246141, 244984 Fax: (01334) 244985 Email: [email protected] Website: www.rkmkankhal.org In the wake of the unprecedented devastation caused by cloud-burst and flash floods in a major portion of Uttarakhand from 15 to 17 June 2013, the Disaster Management Cell of the Indian Government had requested the Ramakrishna Mission, Belur Math, Howrah, West Bengal, to take up relief work for the flood- affected people of Uttarakhand. Under the instructions of its headquarters at Belur Math, Ramakrishna Mission Sevashrama, Kankhal (Haridwar), undertook a massive relief work in the affected areas from 21 June to 4 August 2013. Besides their multifarious permanent constructive works, from their very inception, the Ramakrishna Math and the Ramakrishna Mission have been promptly organizing ameliorative and healing services whenever the nation has been faced with calamities caused by the freaks of nature, follies of men, or scourges of epidemic. The relief activities have also extended well beyond Indian borders. The history of the Ramakrishna Order’s relief services is as old as that of the Mission itself. Once, while going on a pilgrimage with Mathur Babu, Sri Ramakrishna came to Deoghar and saw many people suffering from hunger. He told Mathur Babu, “Give them a full meal at least for one day.” But that meant spending a large amount of money. Mathur Babu kept silent. Sri Ramakrishna then said, “Unless you feed them I won’t go any further with you,” and went and sat among those poor people.

  • India 2017 International Religious Freedom Report
    INDIA 2017 INTERNATIONAL RELIGIOUS FREEDOM REPORT Executive Summary The constitution provides for freedom of conscience and the right of all individuals to freely profess, practice, and propagate religion; mandates a secular state; requires the state to treat all religions impartially; and prohibits discrimination based on religion. It also states citizens must practice their faith in a way that does not adversely affect public order, morality, or health. Out of 29 states, eight have legislation restricting religious conversion, with laws in force in five of those states. Authorities often did not prosecute violence by vigilantes against persons, mostly Muslims, suspected of slaughtering or illegally transporting cows or trading in or consuming beef. Members of civil society and religious minorities stated that under the current government, religious minority communities felt increasingly vulnerable due to Hindu nationalist groups engaging in violence against non-Hindu individuals and their places of worship. Representatives of religious minority communities stated that, while the national government sometimes spoke out against incidents of violence, local political leaders often did not, and at times made public remarks individuals could interpret as condoning violence. On April 2, Chhattisgarh’s Chief Minister Raman Singh said anyone who killed a cow in his state would be hanged. Some longstanding legal cases involving religiously motivated violence and riots continued to advance slowly. In May the Kerala High Court annulled a marriage between a Hindu woman and a Muslim man based on third-party allegations the woman was forcibly converted to Islam, despite her denial she was forced; the Supreme Court’s review of the case continued at year’s end.
