    About the BookA DEEP-DIVE INTO THE FASCINATING WORLD OF THE MYTHOLOGICAL IMAGES THAT ARE FOUND IN ALL OUR HOMES AND THE STORIES BEHIND THEMHindu mythology abounds with fascinating gods, goddesses and characters whose visual representations - through calendar art - are equally colourful. Hindu calendar art may seem fantastic and kitsch, but it is in fact the most democratic expression of a mythic imagery that was once restricted to temple walls and palm leaf manuscripts. These portraits of the Hindu pantheon of gods and the stories that surround them can be found on the walls and puja rooms of almost every Hindu household in India. Rich in symbols, each image is a piece of an ancient metaphysical jigsaw puzzle. In this book, Dr Devdutt Pattanaik, India's renowned mythologist, decodes these symbols to reveal a wisdom that has nourished India for thousands of years.About the AuthorDevdutt Pattanaik is an Indian physician turned leadership consultant, mythologist and author whose works focus largely on the areas of myth, mythology and also management. He is former chief belief officer of Future Group, one of India's largest retailers. He writes a column for the newspaper Mid-Day.

    About the BookEXAMINING THE DIFFERENT MYTHS AND RITUALS ABOUT LORD VISHNU AND HIS AVATARS, THIS BOOK UNCOVERS THE ANCIENT WISDOM INHERITED OVER GENERATIONS WHICH STILL HOLD RELEVANCE TODAY.For Hindus, Vishnu is God who inspires man to discover humanity by engaging with the world. Artists have visualized him with as curly-haired, dark complexioned man with a smile on his lips and a sparkle in his eyes. Draped in yellow silk, garlanded with forest flowers, bedecked with dolphin-shaped earrings, anointed with sandal paste, he reclines on a thousand-hooded serpent that floats on the ocean of milk and rides a golden hawk bearing in his arms a conch-shell, a wheel, a mace and a lotus. Poets say that when he is awake, the world takes shape; when he is asleep, the world ceases to be. Lakshmi, the goddess of wealth, follows him wherever he goes. To him is made offerings of rich creamy butter. Sometimes, the upright Ram, he is worshipped across India as Balaji, Shreenathji, Jagannath, Ranganath and Badrinath. Locked in the stories, symbols and rituals of Vishnu is the wisdom of the ancestors, transmitted over hundreds of years. This book attempts to unlock seven secrets that are relevant even in modern times.About the AuthorDevdutt Pattanaik is an Indian physician turned leadership consultant, mythologist and author whose works focus largely on the areas of myth, mythology and also management.

    A DEEP AND PROFOUND INSIGHT INTO THE GARUDA PURANA AND THE HINDU CONCEPTS OF DEATH, REBIRTH AND IMMORTALITY.Why do Hindus feed their dead ancestors? And why do they prefer burning the dead to building tombs? Does Hinduism have no concept of Judgement Day? What is the impact of death on its notions of womanhood and caste? Is the Vedic approach to death different from the Tantric one? The idea of death and rebirth is embedded in the Hindu mind through ritual and story. Death is not just tragic, but ambiguous too. For instance, it is the end of one journey, but it is also the beginning of another. Similarly, while it is true that the ancestors are venerated and fed posthumously, death is also considered inauspicious, a source of impurity. There are a variety of rituals that seek to address these ambiguities, provide comfort to the living and deliverance to the dead. In Garuda Purana and Other Hindu Ideas on Death, Rebirth and Immortality, Devdutt Pattanaik explores the many concepts around death across the spectrum of Hindu puranas and mythology. Bhuta, pishacha, preta, pitr and vetala make their appearance in this study, as do Yama, Hanuman, Kaal-Bhairav, Ram and other gods as well as lesser beings. The book is a unique enquiry into the inevitability that is death-but equally it is a guide for the living on the choices we make.About the AuthorDevdutt Pattanaik is an Indian physician turned leadership consultant, mythologist and author whose works focus largely on the areas of myth, mythology and also management.

    हिंदू देवी-देवताओं के नयनाभिराम और सुंदर चित्र भक्तों को अपनी ओर आकर्षित करते हैं तथा उनमें आस्था एवं भक्तिभाव की अजस्र धारा प्रवाहित कर देते हैं। पर कम ही लोग इन चित्रों में प्रदर्शित विभिन्न स्वरूपों के बारे में ज्ञान रखते हैं। प्रस्तुत पुस्तक हिंदू कलेंडर कला के इन चित्रों के रहस्यों को सुलझाने का एक सुंदर प्रयास है। इसमें बताया गया है- गणेश सभी बाधाओं को दूर करनेवाले देवता हैं। शेर पर सवार चामुंडा प्रकृति पर अपने प्रभुत्व का संकेत करती है। अपनी हथेली को उठाकर देवी अपने भक्तों से कहती हैं कि डरने की जरूरत नहीं है। गणेश का एक टूटा हुआ दाँत संयम का प्रतीक है। भू-देवी, यानी गाय के रूप में पृथ्वी लक्ष्मी का दूसरा रूप है। हिंदुओं की आस्था के केंद्रबिंदु देवी-देवताओं के चित्रों के &
