Banaras by 9696018|Diana L. Eck book cover

📘 Banaras
 by Diana L. Eck

One of the oldest living cities in the world, Banaras is the holy place of the Hindus, as significant to them as Jerusalem is to Jews and Christians and Mecca is to Muslims. Referred to by Hindus as Kashi (the Luminous), the city is visited by pilgrims from all over India, who come to bathe in the Ganges -- many, indeed, to die on its sacred banks. Basing her work on Sanskrit texts and on her experience of the city itself, Diana L. Eck analyzes the art and architecture, geography, history, and anthropology of Banaras and describes its elaborate and thriving rituals, its myths and literature, and its continuing importance to religious seekers. - Back cover.

📘 The idea of India
 by Sunil Khilnani

"Our appreciation of the importance of India can only increase in light of current events in Asia and after the revelations about India's nuclear capabilities. This study addresses the paradoxes and ironies of this the world's largest democracy. Do the old ideas, or idea, of India still hold true - especially now that the country is in the hands of a very different kind of leadership? Can the original idea of India survive its own successes?". "In his new introduction, Khilnani addresses these issues in the new perspectives afforded by events of the recent year in India and in the world."--BOOK JACKET.
