The world of tribes in India is still undiscovered and it often appears mysterious to the common man. Their peculiar belief system, worship of myriad spirits, animals, plants, hills, rivers and mountains compound the mystery. Even today, their world view, lifestyle, ritual and value system remain beyond the grasp of the mainstream society.
Tribes are often dismissed as just animists, without a philosophy. Scholars so far have been dwelling mostly on the anthropological aspects of the tribes. This book is the first systematic effort to deal with the tribes from the point of view of philosophy. The work goes beyond what appears about the tribes on the surface level, and delves into their world of cosmology, metaphysics, aesthetics, epistemology and eschatology, man-animal-nature relations, gods, spirits, body and soul.
Though the book is a work of philosophy, it chooses to avoid dry and cumbersome _ philosophical process; but in the final analysis succeeds to bring forth the philosophy of the tribal community in a manner appealing even to the general readers. A large number of legends and folktales have been interpreted philosophically in order to give sensible meaning to them vis-a-vis Vedic philosophy and Christian philosophy; and it is therefore that the book promises to be an exotic journey into the world of the tribes.

My Take
- Author Name:
L.K. Advani
- Book Type:
- Description: L.K. Advani's blogs cut across generations: they have a recall value for his contemporaries. Advani's blogs provide a rare insight into history for the young Indian, restless to do his bit in shaping the future of his country. They take him through the turmoil and toil of leaders like Sardar Patel and their distinctive contribution to shaping today's India. Advani's blogs have a dual purpose: they mirror an era gone by and yet link its relevance to an India, raring to take on the world. The blogs, therefore, successfully merge two periods: one to which Advani himself belongs with another which sees him as a mentor. That Advani has been a consequential politician is a given. As a protagonist in the political playfield spanning decades, he, along with Atal Behari Vajpayee, not only formed the Bharatiya Janata Party but transformed it dramatically. If the BJP is nationally in the reckoning today, it is because of the Atal-Advani vision of bringing it centre-stage from the margins. It is through this journey that he redefined secularism. During his historic yatras, including the Ramjanambhoomi and Somnath to Ayodhya, the country was compelled to redefine secularism and distinguish it from the pseudo-secularism handed down by adversaries. But that is only one part. The other and more significant is Advani's contribution to setting and elevating standards in public life and hammering that they are followed. That he has led from the front is well known. The strength of Advani's blogs, like his persona, is that they are direct, candid and forthright. There are no soft-pedalling issues or minimising the blow, as it were. He has stated facts as they are and did not attempt to underplay or exaggerate any sequence. His writings are as clear as his mind. The blogs offer a wide range: history, politics, books and all else. To those who have a stake in India's political future, Advani's blogs are a practical guide; for others an exciting read.

Description:
‘उत्तरी भारत की सन्त-परम्परा’ कृति आचार्य परशुराम चतुर्वेदी की साहित्यिक साधना की वह अनन्यतम प्रस्तुति है, जिसके समानान्तर आज कई दशक बाद भी हिन्दी साहित्य के अन्तर्गत वैसी कोई दूसरी रचना सामने नहीं आ सकी है। सन्त साहित्य के उद्भव से जुड़े अनेक प्रक्षिप्त मतों का खंडन करते हुए उसके मूल प्रामाणिक प्रेरणास्रोतों को प्रकाश में लाकर चतुर्वेदी जी ने उसकी अखंडता का जो अपूर्व परिचय प्रस्तुत किया है, वह हमारी साहित्यिक मान्यताओं से जुड़ी शोध-परम्परा का सर्वमान्य ऐतिहासिक साक्ष्य है।
परवर्ती काल में यह सन्त साहित्य उत्तर भारत के बीच पर्याप्त रूप से समृद्ध हुआ, किन्तु इसके प्रेरणासूत्र समग्र भारतीयता से सम्बद्ध है। महाराष्ट्र, केरल, राजस्थान, गुजरात, मध्य प्रदेश, ओड़िसा, बंगाल, आसाम, पंजाब आदि राज्यों में फैले हुए इसके प्रारम्भिक तथा परवर्ती सूत्र इस तथ्य के प्रमाण हैं कि यह जन-आन्दोलन के रूप में समग्र भारतीय लोकजीवन से जुड़ा रहा है। सन्त नामदेव, ज्ञानदेव, नानक, विद्यापति, कबीरदास, दादू आदि सन्तों ने अपनी सन्तवाणी से समग्र भारत की एकता, अखंडता को जोड़ते हुए हमें अन्धविश्वासों एवं रूढ़ मान्यताओं से मुक्त किया है। आचार्य परशुराम चतुर्वेदी की यह कृति इन तथ्यों की प्रस्तुति का सबसे प्रामाणिक और सबसे सशक्त दस्तावे़ज़ है।
आचार्य चतुर्वेदी की इस ऐतिहासिक धरोहर को पुन: समक्ष रखते हुए हम गर्व का अनुभव करते हैं और आशा करते हैं कि पाठक समाज इसे पूर्ववत् निष्ठा के साथ स्वीकार करेगा।

Description:
साहित्य में ‘मंज़रनामा’ एक मुकम्मिल फ़ार्म है। यह एक ऐसी विधा है जिसे पाठक बिना किसी रुकावट के रचना का मूल आस्वाद लेते हुए पढ़ सकें। लेकिन मंज़रनामा का अन्दाज़े-बयाँ अमूमन मूल रचना से अलग हो जाता है या यूँ कहें कि वह मूल रचना का इंटरप्रेटेशन हो जाता है।
मंज़रनामा पेश करने का एक उद्देश्य तो यह है कि पाठक इस फ़ार्म से रू-ब-रू हो सकें और दूसरा यह कि टी.वी. और सिनेमा में दिलचस्पी रखनेवाले लोग यह देख-जान सकें कि किसी कृति को किस तरह मंज़रनामे की शक्ल दी जाती है। टी.वी. की आमद से मंज़रनामों की ज़रूरत में बहुत इज़ाफ़ा हो गया है।
अथाह प्रेम, प्रेम के गहरे सम्मान और शुद्ध-सुच्चे भारतीय मूल्यों में रसी-पगी गुलज़ार की इस फ़िल्म को न देखा हो ऐसे बहुत कम लोग होंगे। लेकिन मंज़रनामे की शक्ल में इसे पढ़ना बिलकुल भिन्न अनुभव है। इतने कसाव और कौशल के साथ लिखी हुई पटकथाएँ निश्चित रूप से सिद्ध करती हैं कि मंज़रनामा एक स्वतंत्र साहित्यिक विधा है। बार-बार देखने लायक़ फ़िल्म की बार-बार पठनीय पुस्तकीय प्रस्तुति!
The Life and Times of Birsa Munda
- Author Name:
Gopi Krishna Kunwar
- Book Type:
- Description: The Life and Times of Birsa Munda The year: 1890-92. It was a time of turmoil when several Adivasis in the Chhotanagpur region fell prey to the false preaching of the Christian churches and were forced to embrace Christianity. It was a ploy by the British to convert Adivasis to Christianity to stem protests. Birsa Munda and his family also believed in preaching initially and converted to Christianity. Soon, however, Birsa saw through the trickery and not merely did he convert to Hinduism again, but he also convinced several Adivasis. They had converted to Christianity to embrace Hinduism again. It was this Birsa Munda who later became the "God" of the Adivasis and came to be regarded as "Dharti-Aba" or "Father of the Universe." In an attempt to capture Birsa, the British administration was jolted and announced a reward of Rs 500 for his arrest. The British trick worked, and some greedy informers of the British caught Birsa when he was sleeping at night. This book, a biography of the great Adivasi leader, Birsa Munda, tries to capture some of the brave glimpses from the life of a daring revolutionary who gave up all he had to fight for the rights of his people and to ensure the freedom of his motherland.
