No less than Narendra Modi, India’s erudite prime minister, had attributed the self-disparaging Indian character to its thousand years of slavery, that too on the floor of the Indian parliament. And it’s no wonder that Asaduddin Owaisi, the Islamist revivalist in the Indian remnant, promptly contested the said proposition. Needless to say, while Modi echoed the lament of the Hindu nationalists, albeit in a politically correct vocabulary, Owaisi sees the Muslim invasion of Hindustan through the prism of eight-hundred years of Islamic hukummat over the same. Whatever, a critical examination of India’s Islamic history, even the one dished out by its Muslim overlords, and an objective analysis of its socio-cultural construct therein would belie the supposition that Hindus were forced into slavery in any which way. No doubt, when the Islamic marauders eyed it for loot and rapine, India was long since the home to the Nalandas and the Takshasilas, the Ivys of yore, and it was also the world’s largest economy with some thirty-percent share of its gross domestic product. Thus, it’s as if India then was the crown of the creation, adorned with Hindu jewels, and that being the case, maybe the Hindus of that time were justified to feel top-of-the-world, like the Americans of the day do. So, that’s exactly what they felt like, and we have Aberuni’s testimony for that In his eponymous book on India of around 1030CE. “… the Hindus believe that there is no country but theirs, no nation like theirs, no kings like theirs, no religion like theirs, no science like theirs.” [mehr]

Whenever the word Hindu comes up for discussion, at the very outset, it is announced that the word has its origin in the word Sindhu, the Sanskrit term for the river Indus. That statement is taken for granted as an axiom and repeated by all. It is not seen in the public domain that anybody has ever raised any doubt on that explanation. The current explanation has gone ex silentio. Arguments may be put forward to expose many logical loopholes in the present explanation. This book tries to highlight the logical inconsistencies of the present explanation and at the same time tries to provide a more consistent alternative explanation of the origin of the word Hindu that has a traceable root to the core values of that way of life.

Im letzten Moment fliehen sie. Dann brennt ihr Dorf. Es geschieht, was der Hindu plant. Christen werden verprügelt, Kirchen brennen. Indien den Indern. Nationale und religiöse Interessen vermischen sich. Dann werden Tote gefunden, brutal ermordet. Inspektor Chidambaram und sein smarter Sekretär Babu ermitteln im Stammesgebiet entlang der Godavari. Überraschend schließt sich ihnen Kumari an, eine couragierte Christin und ehemalige Verlobte des Inspektors. Der Fall scheint zunächst klar - es geht um religiösen Fanatismus. Ein schillernder Swami heizt die Stimmung gegen Christen an, unterstützt von einem Journalisten. Dann detoniert ein Sprengsatz. Die Lage eskaliert. Was mit der Verfolgung religiöser Minderheiten beginnt, entpuppt sich als brisanter Politkrimi. Leserinnen und Leser dieses Kriminalromans werden nicht nur spannend unterhalten, sondern begegnen der zugleich faszinierenden wie fremden Welt Südindiens. Der Autor hat reale und aktuelle Themen des indischen Subkontinents aufgenommen: Religiöse Auseinandersetzungen zwischen Hindus und Christen, Bedrohung der Lebensräume von Ureinwohnern, Korruption und Vetternwirtschaft, Indien zwischen Tradition und Moderne. Was Sie hier lesen, ist ähnlich bereits geschehen und kann es jederzeit wieder. Nicht nur in Indien. [mehr]

The Hindu-Yogi Science Of Breath by Yogi Ramacharaka teaches advanced yoga techniques. For thousands of years, yogis have believed that breath is the essential link between body and mind, energizing a subtle body which connects the physical and mental aspects of our being. In this book, Swami Rama and two noted American physicians explore the science of breath as the missing key to both physical health and the attainment of higher states of consciousness. Basic yogic breathing techniques are explained so that one can immediately begin working with the ancient science of breath. [mehr]
