‘‘एक समर्थ उपन्यास के रूप में तापसी की गणना आज के गिने-चुने उपन्यासों में निश्चित की जाएगी। इसमें लेखिका ने जो प्रश्न उभार दिये हैं उनका महत्त्व रचना की कलात्मक गुणवत्ता से कहीं अधिक है।’’ - डा. महीप सिंह, वरिष्ठ लेखक ‘‘तापसी उपन्यास समाज को अपने ही गिरेबान में झाँकने के लिए प्रेरित करता है, तथाकथित धर्म के ठेकेदारों, दानदाताओं और समाजसेवा की आड़ में अपने स्वार्थ, अपनी वासना को पालने-पोसने वालों के चेहरों पर पड़ी भद्रता का नकाब नोचने का काम करता है। उपन्यास में कई सूत्र हैं, वाक्य हैं, जो लैम्प पोस्ट की तरह बहुत दूर रोशनी फैलाते हैं और चिंतन के मार्ग को प्रशस्त करते हैं।’’ श्रीराम दवे, कार्यकारी संपादक समावर्तन सुपरिचित लेखिका कुसुम अंसल के अब तक सात उपन्यास, पाँच कविता-संग्रह, पाँच कहानी-संग्रह, तीन यात्रा वृत्तान्त प्रकाशित हो चुके हैं। हिन्दी साहित्य में योगदान के लिए उन्हें ‘भारतीय भाषा परिषद् समग्र सम्मान’ (2019), ‘आचार्य विद्यानिवास मिश्र स्मृति सम्मान’ (2013), हिन्दी संस्थान का ‘साहित्य भूषण सम्मान’ (2005), हिन्दी अकादमी का ‘साहित्यकार सम्मान’ (2004-05), उत्तर प्रदेश हिन्दी संस्थान भारत भारती का ‘महादेवी पुरस्कार’ (2001) से सम्मानित किया जा चुका है।

‘ताई’ हिन्दी कहानियों में एक मील का पत्थर मानी जाती है। इसके कहानीकार विश्वम्भरनाथ शर्मा कौशिक की गणना प्रेमचंद, जयशंकर प्रसाद, गुलेरी के साथ आधुनिक हिन्दी कहानी के निर्माताओं में की जाती है। काल-क्रम की दृष्टि से ये सभी लेखक एक आध साल के अन्तर से आए और प्रत्येक ने अपनी विशिष्ट पहचान बनाई। जहां प्रेमचंद, जयशंकर प्रसाद का नाम हिन्दी साहित्य में आज भी बहुत लोकप्रिय है और उनका साहित्य आसानी से उपलब्ध है, वहीं कौशिक जी की रचनाएँ पाठक की नज़रों से कुछ ओझल-सी हो गई हैं। उनकी कहानियों का यह संकलन इस अभाव को पूरा करता है। विश्वम्भरनाथ शर्मा कौशिक की अधिकांश कहानियाँ उत्तर भारत के सामाजिक जीवन का चित्रण करती हैं। यादगार चरित्रों को पैदा करना कौशिक जी की विशेषता थी और वे अपने पात्रों को अपनी कहानियों के माध्यम से इस तरह जीवंत करते थे कि पाठक को वर्षों तक याद रहे।

Description:

The “commentary” on the Taittiriyopanishad is entitled Taittiriyaka-vidya-prakashah, that is “the exposition of the teaching of the Taittiriyopanishad” . It is to be seen that almost all Upanishads propound the unity of the Self with Brahman in two ways, first, by negation and second, by the mode of indicative descriptions. Both these methods are to be met with in the Taittiriyopanishad. Indeed this Upanishad is the fountainhead for both methods which converge to the same point in the famous declaration: brahmavidyapnotiparam (the knower of Brahman attains the supreme). What Vidyaranya has accomplished in this independent work is best described as a “meta-commentary”, being not a mere gloss on the existing commentary, but an independent exercise in interpretation of the Upanishads themselves guided at every step by the turns in the commentary of Sankaracharya. In sum it may be viewed as the medieval counterpart of modern academic interpretations of the Upanishads vis-a-vis the exegesis of Sankaracharya.
The prevalent view is that Vidyaranya and the Vedic commentator Sayana were brothers. It is further believed that “Vidyaranya” (lit. forest of learning) is the ascetic name of Madhavacharya, the very powerful minister in the Kingdom of Vijayanagar which came into existence under his aegis in ce1336. He renounced the world when yet at the height of his worldly powers and became an ascetic, who was the thirty-third occupant of the prestigious seat of Sankaracharya at Sringeri.

Description:

The Mughal dynasty of India began in the first half of the 16th century after the conquest of Delhi by Babar. After the death of Emperor Aurangzeb in 1707, the immense empire began to fall apart, while small hindu and muslim kingdoms came into ascendacy. Thus, speaking of the Mughals means speaking about that period of two scarce centuries that left a precious artistic and architectonic legacy for humanity, out of which the Taj Mahal stands out by its own right. Based on the history of the Mughal dynasty and the building of their most knowned monument, the Taj Mahal the imaginative artist Gol, specialist of historical comic and author of the comic book "A pilgrimage to Kashi" has created this great comic, mixing history and imagination. This comic book is not exclusively meant for children.

DESCRIPTION:

Life today can feel so fragmented, often we face enormous pressures both on the work front and at home. Irritable and drained at the end of a long day, we wonder what it was all about. But if we look at our choices through Easwaran's eyes, it's surprising how quickly we begin to discover patience, peace and meaning. In take your time, Easwaran shows us through his timeless stories that we could try something different next time we're feeling stressed.

According to India mythology. Hanuman, the mighty monkey deity, was said to be the son of the Wind God, Vayu, and Anjana. Hanuman is renowned for his strength and valour besides his steadfast love and loyalty to Lord Rama. He is the embodiment of devotion and power.

The three titles in this Amar Chitra Katha collection narrate the adventures of Hanuman.

‘Hanuman to the Rescue’ is based on krittivasa’s Ramayana. Hanuman’s exploits, particularly after he sets out to bring the herb vishalya karani from Mount Gandhamadana to save Lakshmana, have been beautifully embellished in the Bengali version of the Ramayana.

Hanuman’s unflinching devotion to Rama has made him one of the greatest bhaktas (devotees) ever known In fact, Hanuman is often referred to as Ramabhakta Hanuman. His singular worship of Rama made him compassionate. It helped him leap across 800 miles of ocean to Lanka and console Sita who was pining for Rama – forlorn and lonely in Ravana’s Ashoka garden. This story encapsulates the escapades of Hanuman.

The third tale in this special issue describes the encounter between Hanuman and Bheema, the mighty Pandava prince. Hanuman was the son of Vayu, the Wind God, and Bheema was the son of Kunti, born by the grace of Vayu, thus, the tow can be considered half-brother. Hanuman tests the strength and humility of the great Bheema in this charming anecdote. Hanuman is described as chiranjivi, and immortal. This explains how the meeting between the two was possible, although Bheema was born many centuries later.
