This volume provides the first comprehensive analysis and chronology of the earliest known stone sculptures from the north Indian city of Mathura, dating prior to the famous Kushan period. It includes numerous new attributions of objects based primarily on epigraphic and visual analysis. The sculptures attributable to these pre-Kushan periods reveal new evidence for the reasons behind the emergence of the anthropomorphic image of the Buddha at Mathura, the predominance of a heterodox sect of Jainism, and the proliferation of cults of nature divinities. This book provides a wealth of reference material useful for historians of early Indian art, religion, and epigraphy. The book is illustrated with over three hundred photographs, and it includes epigraphic appendices with complete transcriptions and updated translations.
Krishna is a central figure in Hinduism, a religion that has been a fundamental force for thousands of years. This accessible encyclopedia covers texts, practices, scholarship, and arts related to Krishna from the earliest known sources on. As Eastern religions and related practices such as yoga become increasingly popular, there is a need for resources that explain where these practices come from and what they mean. This is one of those works. Krishna is central to Hindu philosophy, theology, art, architecture, and literature, and an understanding of Krishna will give students greater understanding of the role of Hinduism around the world. Yet this isn't just a book on religion. The encyclopedia also provides insights into Indian and world history and into contemporary concerns, fostering respect for religious and cultural diversity. Entries on a wide range of subjects related to Krishna cover India and other places where major Krishna religious centers and temples are established worldwide. Articles draw from classical Indian sources dating back as far as 1300 BCE and from folk and worldwide literature, including mythology from Jainism and Buddhism. The book's alphabetical organization, cross references in each entry that highlight related entries and further readings, and topical and thematic lists will facilitate in-depth research.

The early accounts describe Bundi as originally named Pariyatra and Vrindavati respectively. Its hinduly area was termed as Prakatpur. Over time, it came to be known as Bunda Ka Nal. Jaita the last Meena chieftain, ruled until Rao Deva conquered the territory on 24th June 1341 A.D. Rao Deva and his successors established the city of Bundi at the heart of Bunda Ka Nal, and renamed the region as Harauti, signifying the abode of Haras. Eventually, the Haras expanded their domain across the Chambal river, encompassing present-day districts of Kota and Baran. While the entire reign under Haras became known as Harauti, their rulers retained the title of Rao of Bundi. During their rule, Kota was established as a separate Hara state on 21st December 1631 A.D. Nevertheless, the combined region of Bundi and Kota continued to be referred to as Harauti. This work is a monograph to stratise the conseptulized and age old inter operative multipluralstic cultural and political crescendo which transidendet through ages. As Bundi zone irrupted in history as early as mesoprotozoic period (1.5 crore BC-1 crore BC), an elevating the Aravali hills, audiotizing the serene sound of fountains, rivers, streamlets, beautified with thick forestry, rich with wild animals and unified in religious based ideologicentric academia. Despite the existence of ample Hindi literature on Bundi, there was still a need for an English edition, especially in the era of globalization when Bundi has become a prominent tourist destination. We have diligently examined literary, archival, archealogical, spectacularly, geographical, geopolitical, numismatic, thermological, carbondatist and anthropological evidences to find the insightfulness of Bundi. This efforts presents Bundi as a cultural state having the profound implicit character to reflect doctor S. Radhakrishna’s definition “History is the memory of a Nations.” Conductively it combines it’s past with its present palladium of culture also.
Writing a book on travel is not easy as the writer need to experience the places through personally travelling or listening or reading the experiences. I have not yet been able to do anyone of that, so I am creating a guidebook of the places of India. It will help the travelers to find places in different states and tourist destinations near important cities. I have tried to create a table of hill stations of India in this guide, along with the religious tourist destinations. These will help travelers with different objectives to visit places of their interest. I am not adding any images in this guide, hoping traveler themselves to build it for them. I am asking to forgive me if I am wrong in explaining any place or destination or location. And would love to update the same when I bring out detailed travel experiences in future.
