The Cursed Heaven by Balakumar Somu Pdf

"Rishi is thrilled to bag his dream job, that of an embryologist in Salem Genetics, one of the top genetics companies in the world. His dream of heading his own research team had materialised at last! But Rishi is unaware that he could be a pawn in a sinister corporate war on the social fabric of this great nation. Vinayak Seshadri is one of India's top Animal Rights Activists, revered as the messiah whose life’s mission is to alleviate the suffering of animals. He has been at the forefront of the struggle to bring to an end the 4,000-year-old human-animal contact sports – Jallikattu and Bailgada. In the same decade, India's beef and leather exports surge. India becomes the world's largest exporter of beef and the industry becomes one of the most-profitable, raking in billions of rupees. Are these events just a coincidence? Or are they a mischievous plot by cunning masterminds who will not hesitate to destroy the very backbone of the nation to satisfy their greed? "

The Cult of Draupadi, Volume 2 by Alf Hiltebeitel Pdf

This is the first volume of a projected three-volume work on the little-known South Indian folk cult of the goddess Draupadi and on the classical epic, the Mahabharata, that the cult brings to life in mythic, ritual, and dramatic forms. Draupadi, the chief heroine of the Sanskrit Mahabharata, takes on many unexpected guises in her Tamil cult, but her dimensions as a folk goddess remain rooted in a rich interpretive vision of the great epic. By examining the ways that the cult of Draupadi commingles traditions about the goddess and the epic, Alf Hiltebeitel shows the cult to be singularly representative of the inner tensions and working dynamics of popular devotional Hinduism.

DEOLALI DAYS by PARVATI MENON Pdf

Deolali was mesmerised by two exceptionally handsome young guys who rode in one fine day on their mean chugging machine. They were fresh recruits to be trained by Dad. Their sole ambition was to migrate to London for most Brits were heading home as the Empire’s rule was about to end. And the matrimonial route was not ruled out possibly via Col Browns toothy daughters! It was a period of migrations – the Muslims to a new nation being carved out for them, sometimes leaving behind loved and unloved ones; the white man to his homeland, not without trepidation at the impending loss of luxury and an influx of refugees to various parts of India, armed with their grit and dreams to succeed again. In all this melee, Deolali Days has a lot of comic characters who willy-nilly get involved with each other. To top it all, a dazzling yet intimidating woman entrepreneur, seemingly from a royal background, is ready to seize the moment. But adding the most colour is Poppat baba, a parrot whose predictions are mysteriously correct to the dot, driving the heroes nuts! Who is who in this utter chaotic confusion? What happens to them? Deolali Days is a bubbling narrative of those magical times.

Rahu & Kethu by Tirupur S. GopalaKrishnan (GK) Pdf

Astronomically, the intersection points of the sun and moon – on their movements in the celestial sphere – are called Rahu and Kethu. They are also called the north node and south node. Rahu and Kethu are unimaginably huge dark shadows in space. During their transit, when their shadow falls on any planet, that planet’s all-effects will be completely altered or diverted by Rahu and Kethu. Rahu and Kethu are solely responsible for a beggar to become a millionaire and a millionaire to become a beggar. This book elaborately discusses the effects of Rahu and Kethu. In the horoscope, how Rahu and Kethu are positioned, how the planets and the houses (Bhavas) are affected by them in the birth chart are all analysed in this book. How and when the natives will be affected? To what extent they will be affected? It is because of the birth chart, the transit movement and the Dhasa Bhukthi of Rahu and Kethu? They are all clearly explained in this book with many birth charts. Kindly read this book thoroughly, analyse it with your known people’s horoscope, and experience the result. It will surely give you goosebumps!

Onscreen/Offscreen by Constantine V. Nakassis Pdf

Based on over a decade of ethnographic fieldwork in the South Indian state of Tamil Nadu, Onscreen/Offscreen is an exploration of the politics and being of filmic images. The book examines contestations inside and outside the Tamil film industry over the question "what is an image?" Answers to this question may be found in the ontological politics that take place on film sets, in theatre halls, and in the social fabric of everyday life in South India, from populist electoral politics and the gendering of social space to caste uplift and domination. Bridging and synthesizing linguistic anthropology, film studies, visual studies, and media anthropology, Onscreen/Offscreen rethinks key issues across a number of fields concerned with the semiotic constitution of social life, from the performativity and ontology of images to questions of spectatorship, realism, and presence. In doing so, it offers both a challenge to any approach that would separate image from social context and a new vision for linguistic anthropology beyond the question of "language."
