Ram Lila-s in North India and Mauritius by Indrarani Rampersad Pdf

Ram Lila is the animated katha of Sri Ram as told by Sant Tulsidas in Ramcharitmanas and performed in LILA style and dramatic/theatrical style. It is a narrative that was seeded in North India but that sprouted huge trees across India and the diaspora, especially the indentured Indian diaspora countries like Trinidad, Guyana, Suriname, and Fiji. The Ramcharitmanas is sacred to millions and serves as a moral and ethical guide in personal, family, and national life, as well as political leadership. Ram Lila is a unique identity marker for communities that nurture and practice this tradition; it brings people together, across cultural and socio-economic differences. While providing community entertainment, the performative style of Ram Lila is a powerful tool for teaching and learning, agent of darshan, and opportunity for personal spiritual transformation.

My Twenty-one Years in the Fiji Islands ; And, The Story of the Haunted Line by Totaram Sanadhya Pdf

"Totaram Sanadhya came to Fiji as a ginnitiya, or indentured labourer, in 1893. In 1914, he returned to India and together with Benarsides Chaturvedi wrote this book, a powerful indictment of the indentured labour system and the treatment of Indians in Fiji. ... It was one of the most frequently used sources of information and argument during the public movement in Inmdia that led to the abolition of indenture in the 1910s; the movement Gandhi later called the first national sayagraba. ... [This] volume also includes an English translation of The story of the haunted line: a moving story of a man saved from fear and despair by Hindu devotion and the friendship of ethnic Fijians."--Back cover.
