DESCRIPTION:

Legend of Kartikeya: Champion of the Gods. The asura king snarled and launched an avalanche of arrows at his adversary. Kartikeya countered with his mystic spear, which emitted a flurry of sparks, incinerating the oncoming missiles with consummate ease. The champion of the gods then whirled his discus. The twirling orb of light danced lethally through the asura army, obliterating Surapadma’s hordes. Weapon less, armour shattered and flagstaff severed, Surapadma stood defenceless on the field. Son of Shiva is the gripping narrative of the warrior-god Kartikeya, commander-in-chief of the heavenly hosts and epitome of wisdom and valour. The book depicts in mesmerizing prose the monumental battle between the forces of good and evil, as embodied by the devas and asuras.

DESCRIPTION:

Introduction : As Prarthana and Prema Bhakti Candrika of Sri Narottama dasa Thakura are widely known, resepected, and relished by the Caudiya Vaisnavas, so are the songs of Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura. These songs are not only beneficial for the gross materalists and practitioners of devotional service. They are also relished by the exalted souls who have attained perfection. The songs composed by Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura are very instructive and practical for people of all ages, of all castes, and of all religions. The songs of Sri Narottamadasa Thakura are especially meant for devotees who are cultivating devotional service, but Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura has songs are intended for all classes of people. By means of these songs, he hopes to attract everyone to the path of devotional service. Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura has written countless songs. These songs are divided into four books called Kalyana Kalpataru, Saranagati, Gitavali and Gitamala.
Srila Bhaktivinoda Thakura's songs are proof of his cause-less mercy upon the fallen souls of the entire world. We pray that the faithful readers will relish these songs, attain spiritual realization, and ultimately go back to Godhead.

Soordas, the blind bard of Brij occupies a very eminent position in Hindi literature. He is considered the Valmiki of Brij (a dialect of Hindi), not only because he was the first poet to write in that dialect, but also because hes works have an epic stature.

Soordas was not only the poet, but also a great composer. His songs were so popular that he became a legend in his lifetime.If Brij is understood today from Rajasthan and Punjab in the West to Assam in the East, it is mainly due to Soordas songs. Many of these songs are even included in the Granth Sahab, the holy book of the Sikhs - a testimony to their popularity.

Though he is credited with the composition of 25 works, he probably wrote only seven. Of these, Soor-Sagar has a place fo pride, followed by Soor-Saravali and Sahitya Lahari. According to legend, Soor-Sagar consisted of a hundred thousand songs, though today only a few thousand of these are known and sung.

Soordas was a follower of the Pushti cult, founded by Vallabhacharya which considered Krishna as the supreme incarnation of God who could only be attained only through His grace. Like many other Vaishnavaite cults, the Pushtis also believed that all those who worship God belong to the same brotherhood, irrespective of their caste. Adoration for Krishna, Yashoda's and gopis'(the cowherd girls) The intense love of Radha for him, and the alliance of the latter with the gopis formed the theme of most of his songs.

Here 108 pearl beads are nicely put together to create the japa mala. A Japa mala is an essential ingredient for meditation. Basically it is a set of beads usually made from 108 beads, though other numbers are also used. Malas are used for keeping a tab on reciting, chanting, or mentally repeating a mantra or names of a deity.

Mantras are repeated hundreds or even thousands of times. The mala is used so that one can focus on the meaning or sound of the mantra. One repetition is usually said for each bead while turning the thumb clockwise around each bead. When arriving at the head bead, one turns the mala around and then goes back in the opposing direction. There are typically knots between each bead. This makes using the mala easier as the beads will not be so tight on the string when you use them.

There are numerous explanations as to why 108 beads are used in a japa mala.

Some suggest that there are 108 paths to God. Some say there are 108 feelings, with 36 related to the past, 36 related to the present, and 36 related to the future. There are said to be 108 earthly desires in mortals and also 108 lies that humans tell.

There are said to be 108 human delusions or forms of ignorance. Some say there are 108 Upanishads, texts of the wisdom of the ancient sages. In astrology, there are 12 houses and 9 planets. 12 times 9 equals 108.

There are said to be 108 Indian goddess names. In the Krishna tradition, there were said to be 108 gopis or maid servants of Krishna.

In doing a practice of counting the number of repetitions of the mala, 100 are counted as completed. The remaining are said to cover errors or omissions. The 8 are also said to be an offering to God and Guru. Some say there are 108 styles of meditation.

Tantra estimates the average number of breaths per day at 21,600, of which 10,800 are solar energy, and 10,800 are lunar energy. Multiplying 108 by 100 is 10,800. Multiplying 2 x 10,800 equals 21,600.

Some suggest that there are 108 paths to God and Atman, the human soul goes through 108 stages on the journey.

In case more than 108 repetitions are to be done, then sometimes in Tibetan traditions grains of rice are counted out before the chanting begins and one grain is placed in a bowl for each 108 repetitions.

The 109th bead on a mala is called the sumeru, bindu, stupa, or guru bead. Counting should always begin with a bead next to the sumeru. In the Hindu, Vedic tradition, if more than one mala of repetitions is to be done, one changes directions when reaching the sumeru rather than crossing it.

Some Hindu traditions hold that the correct way to use a mala is with the right hand, with the thumb flicking one bead to the next, and with the mala draped over the middle finger. The index finger represents ego, the greatest impediment to self-realization, so it is considered best avoided when chanting on a mala.

In northeast India, particularly those in the Shakta traditions in West Bengal and Assam, the mala is often draped on the ring finger of the right hand, with beads moved by the middle finger with aid of the thumb and avoiding the use of the index finger.

A number of materials are used to make mala beads. Beads made from the seeds of the rudraksha tree are considered sacred by Saivas, devotees of Siva, while beads made from the wood of the tulsi plant are used and revered by Vaishnavas, followers of Vishnu. Other common beads include wood or seeds from the sandalwood tree or the Bodhi tree, and seeds of the Lotus plant. Some Tibetan Buddhist traditions call for the use of animal bone (most commonly yak), but sometimes human bone is used, those of past Lamas being the most valuable. Semiprecious stones such as carnelian and amethyst may be used, as well. In Hindu Tantra, as well as Buddhist Tantra (or Vajrayana), materials and colors of the beads can relate to a specific practice.
