DESCRIPTION:

The Journey of Cricket's Ultimate Centurion, Introduction by Sachin Tendulkar. Includes four colour 70 rare photos. Sachin: Born to Bat by veteran journalist Khalid A.H. Ansari and edited by Clayton Murzello is a unique ode to contemporary cricket's finest batsman. In the words of the author: "This is an attempt to impartially probe the crucial mental, physical and emotional ingredients of a cricketing 'god'. I have tried to turn the laser on the maestro's persona - innumerable blemishes and all - to prevent the book from degenerating into a shabaash, wah-wah hagiography. For all his splendiferous achievements, Sachin has also shown that he is a mere mortal with feet of clay - witness his run-ins with authority, cricketing and civil". Despatches to Mid day, one of Asia's leading newspapers, from some of the world's most famous names in cricket writing Ayaz Memon, Harsha Bhogle, Ian Chappell, Mike Coward, Peter Roebuck and other luminaries grace the pages of this book. Tributes from cricket's most famous personalities including Tendulkar's Team India teammates and coaches make this publication invaluable in helping cricket enthusiasts understand what makes Sachin the peerless champion he is. The book also captures critical moments of Tendulkar's wondrous cricketing career from photographers who have followed him throughout his distinguished career.

Description

The beautiful Batik painting depicting a Christian Sacrarium is a nice combination of colour and patterns. The method of waxing and dewaxing gives rise to a special effect in the painting. A sacrarium is a shallow basin placed near the altar of a church, used for washing the communion vessels, often made of stone and fitted with a drain, and are in some cases used to dispose of materials used in the sacraments. They are found in Roman Catholic, Anglican, and Lutheran churches, and a similar vessel is used in Eastern Orthodox churches.

Sterling silver, glass and watercolors are smartly used to give rise to a special effect in the sparkling pendent. Here the pendent is crafted as a mandala. AUM as a Mandala consists of four components: the outer gates, the outer mandala petals, the inner mandala and the centre.

The outer Manadal petals are painted green in water colours. The Outer Gates are painted mustard. The inner mandalas are painted pink and the Aum is painted at the centre that is painted sharp red.

Each of the four directions are manifested as a specific element. The elements of Water, Earth, Fire and Air are the basic building blocks of our human lives and the lives of all living beings on the planet. Aum is the sacred mantra for any Hindu and it has special effect in our life.

Description:

An eminent Swiss metaphysician and scholar of oriental languages, Titus Burckhardt (1908-84) devoted his life to the timeless and universal wisdom present in Sufism, Vedanta, Taoism, Platonism and the other great esoteric and sapiential traditions. His book Sacred Art in East and West appeared in German and in French. Its scope is wide, covering Hindu, Christian, Islamic, Buddhist and Far-Eastern sacred art, and the author succeeds in a remarkable way in conveying the distinctive qualities characteristic of each, while at the same time emphasizing their unity of principle. Every sacred art is deeply rooted in the religion in which it originates, and it plays an indispensable part in preserving the character and continuity of the sacred civilization connected with that religion. This, however, does not imply that everything that could be called “religious art” is in fact sacred art properly so called, which is identifiable as such by its style and its methods rather than by its models.

Plants personify the divine — The Rig Veda (X.97) Trees and plants have long been held sacred to communities the world over. In India, we have a whole variety of flora that feature in our myths, our epics, our rituals, our worship and our daily life. There is the pipal, under which the Buddha meditated on the path to enlightenment; the banyan, in whose branches hide spirits; the ashoka, in a grove of which Sita sheltered when she was Ravana’s prisoner; the tulsi, without which no Hindu house is considered complete; the bilva, with whose leaves it is possible to inadvertently worship Shiva. Before temples were constructed, trees were open-air shrines sheltering the deity, and many were symbolic of the Buddha himself. Sacred Plants of India systematically lays out the sociocultural roots of the various plants found in the Indian subcontinent, while also asserting their ecological importance to our survival. Informative, thought-provoking and meticulously researched, this book draws on mythology and botany and the ancient religious traditions of India to assemble a detailed and fascinating account of India’s flora.
