The Harappan dancing girl sculpture shows, how old is the tradition of Natya viz. dance, drama and music in India. Samaveda is dedicated primarily to music; this again shows the importance of performing arts in ancient India. With such a rich legacy of dance, drama and music, India has given various great scriptures of this tradition to the world. The Natya sastra is such a scripture only. This scripture had been accepted as fifth Veda, as the same is gist of Vedas. According to scripture itself, "The recitative (pathya) he took from the Rgveda, the song from the Samaveda, the Histrionic Representation (abhinaya) from the Yajurveda and Sentiments (rasa) from the Atharvaveda and thus was created the Natyaveda.

With thirty-six chapters and over six thousand verses, this is encyclopaedia of Natya Vidya (Vidya of dance, drama and music). This comprises of every single aspect of Natya viz. it talks about the issues related literary constructions, set up of stage, details related to musical scales and murcchas, analysis of dance forms which considers several body gestures or mudras and movements along with their impact on viewers, it also educates the viewers about the etiquettes to be followed while watching a performance and it deals with Rasas.

Bharata muni describes 15 types of drama ranging from one to ten acts. Individual chapters deal with aspects such as makeup, costume, acting and directing etc.

With detailed theory of drama, Natyasastra is comparable to the Poetics of Aristotle. Bharata Muni refers to bhavas, the imitations of emotions, as per him eight principal rasas are srngara rasa (love), karunya rasa (pity), Raudra rasa (fury), Vibhatsa rasa (disgust), Vira rasa (heroism), Adbhuta rasa (wond

The beautiful Madhubani painting depicts Goddess Durga in nine different forms. She is worshipped as the form of "Shakti" power. The evolution of Shri Maha Saraswati, Shri Maha Laxmi and Shri Mahakali (the 3 main forms of "Shakti") took place from Shri Brahma, Shri Vishnu and Shri Mahesh respectively. Each of these 3 deities gave rise to 3 more forms and hence in all, these 9 forms together are known as Nav-Durga. Durga is a composite goddess who incorporates different elements of many Gods and local Goddesses. Legend has it that once when all the gods had been kicked out of heaven by the evil demon Mahisha, the form of a buffalo. The gods turned to Shiva, who advised all of the gods to concentrate and release their shaktis that formed into the goddess Durga, the Invincible One, who had 10 arms and had a tiger as her vehicle. The gods armed her with their weapons and she went off to battle with Mahisha. While stunning in her beauty, the demon armies had no time to admire her radiance, as she attacked them on the battlefield. Army after army fought against her, and each army was destroyed during a massive battle. Troops on all sides swarmed into battle, and hordes of infantry wielding axes and spears attacked the goddess. Squadrons of demon-archers and thousands of charioteers and a cavalry of horses and elephants charged at her. Wielding her divine weapons, so many demons and elephants and horses were killed that a river of blood flowed across the battlefield. The ground was left littered with the broken limbs and body parts of the defeated demon army.

आधी सदी पहले सन 1937 में 'चकल्लस' चबूतरे पर यह 'नवाबी मसनद' आबाद हुई थी। गुलजार सड़के जिस मकान में मेरे 'चकल्लस' अख़बार का दफ्तर था, उसके नीचे ही खुदाबख्श तंबाकूवाले, मौला पहलवान और उनके साझेदार प्यारे साहब ड्राइवर की बर्फ की दुकान थी और कुछ सब्जी फरोश कुनबों की दुकानें भी थीं। खुदाबख्श के बेटे कादिर बक्श बड़ी रंगीन तबीयत के आदमी थे, कबाडिनो के कन्हैया। 'चकल्लस' दफ्तर के नीचे इन दुकानों और फुटपाथ की दुनिया। कादिर मियां की मस्ती से खुशरंग रहती थी। मौला पहलवान और प्यारे साहब भी मुजस्सिम याजूज़-माज़ूज़ की जोड़ी ही थे। एक कुश्तिया पहलवान तो दूसरे अक्ल के अखाड़े के खलीफा। 'अवध अखबार' की खबरों के परखचे उड़ाये जाते, आसपास की बातों पर होने वाली बहसों में लालबुझक्कडी लाजिक के ऐसे-ऐसे कमाल नजर आते कि दिल बाग-बाग हो हो जाता था। 'नवाबी मसनद' अपने समय में लोकप्रिय हुई। निराला जी इसके नियमित पाठक और प्रशंसक थे। आशा करता हूं कि पचास वर्षों के बाद आज भी पाठक इसे पसंद करेंगे। (भूमिका से)

DESCRIPTION:

Tales of the Nine Planets. Navagraha Purana chronicles in fascinating detail the birth, life and glory of the Nine Planets, the powerful astral deities who are the ultimate arbiters of man’s destiny. This compelling narrative paints a delightfully intimate portrait of the Navagrahas. Surya subdues his raging heat to please his beloved Samjna. Chandra lusts after his guru’s wife and is cursed to wane each month. Kuja emerges from a drop of perspiration on Shiva’s brow. Budha marries Ila, who is his wife for one month and a prince in the next. Brhaspati forgives his wife’s adultery and curses an amorous apsara to be born as a monkey. Usana becomes Sukra when he is swallowed by a furious Shiva. Sanaischara requests the Trimurti to ensure he inspire fear in all living beings. Rahu and Ketu wreak their vengeance on Surya and Chandra by swallowing them. In an irresistible medley of drama, romance, humour and devotion, Navagraha Purana entertains and informs as it asserts that no one is exempt from the implacable influence of the Nine Planets.

Navigating India is a non-preachy, non-prescriptive and unbiased account of the possibilities that define India amidst magnificent paradoxes. It provides an experiential compass through first-hand accounts and insights from some of India’s most respected names in business, public governance, diplomacy and intelligentsia. It lucidly explains the frequent and vital intersections between the government and business, culture and modernity, demographics and democracy—all of which are vital to understanding India. The book postulates the heights India might reach by harnessing technology and with a collaborative political, regulatory and business response to the rapidly evolving needs and aspirations of young, impatient Indians. Bharat Joshi offers a candid, accessible and objective guide to a complex, albeit compelling, economy.

The beautiful pendant contains navaratnas or nine pearls and a resplendent effect is manifest in the way the nine pearls have been knit together. The pearls have been knit together in a refine and royal manner creating an aura of devotion and gracefulness. Aum is considered a sacred and one of the most powerful words in Hinduism and is considered auspicious. Aum (OM) is the sound of the infinite, the essence of all mantras, the highest of all matras or divine word (shabda). Here, A stands for Creation; U stands for Preservation; M stands for Destruction or dissolution. This is representative of the Trinity of God in Hindu dharma (Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva). The three portions of AUM relate to the states of waking, dream and deep sleep and the three gunas (rajas, satva, tamas) All the words pronounced by the human vocal organ can be represented by AUM. A is produced by the throat, U and M by the lips. In the Vedas, AUM is the sound of the Sun, the sound of Light. It is the sound of assent (affirmation) and ascent (it has an upwards movement and uplifts the soul, as the sound of the divine eagle or falcon. The painting contains some exquisite designs and the method of waxing and dewaxing gives rise to a special effect in the painting.
