The book is an epoch-making work-a paradigm-shift in Vedic studies-which identifies soma as electrum (gold-silver metallic compound). Soma is referred to in the Rgveda as the soul of the yajna (atmayajnasya). The path-breaking identification is based on textual evidence and a penetrating analysis of the Indian alchemical tradition, spanning nearly five millennia. The author is also the discoverer of the integrating role played by the mighty Sarasvati river adored in the Rgveda as the best of mothers, best of rivers and best of goddesses. Sarasvati and soma are no longer mythology but relevant to present-day children, respectively, as the repository of groundwater sanctuaries in north-west India and the metallurgical tradition starting with the Bronze Age Civilization, c. 3000 BC. Sarasvati and soma are the symbols of the great Indian traditions of devi worship and personification and deification of natural, material phenomena. The tirthas along the rivers are reminders of the critical nature of water management problems all over India and soma as an integral part of the yajna process, is the embodiment of the scientific, technological and materialist temper of ancient India. Printed Pages: 346.

The beautiful brass figure depicts a very popular Indian animal, camel. Camel is the only mode of transport in the desert. Dhokra is an ancient style of crafting brass figures using the traditional lost wax method. It is created through a laborious lost wax process associated with the tribal groups of northern India. A model is sculpted of clay and dried in the sun; it is then covered with beeswax and more clay, forming a mold. The piece is cast, cleaned and again dried in the sun. Finally, it is heated in the ground for five days and polished.

Description

The beautiful brass image of Indian deity Bhairav (also called Shiva) is given a spectacular treatment. The figure is being chiselled out of brass with a greater degree of refinement and sculptural excellence. His companion the dog is also given a detail treatment. Hindu God Shiva is also called Bhairava “the horrifying one” which is doubtlessly the most violent and "impure" manifestation of Siva as it is closely linked to the myth of the decapitation of Brahma, the Creator in the divine Hindu triad (Trimurti).

A deep sense of gracefulness and accomplishment is manifest in the spectacular stone figure of the Lord of Wisdom. One of the most worshipped gods in Hinduism, Lord Ganesha is worshipped before undertaking any journey or before beginning any ritual. Minute treatment, excellent carvings is manifest in the beautiful stone figure.
