DOWNLOAD EBOOKKashmiri Pandits have a five thousand-year old history which is horrible, horrific and horrendous, but these people are wonderful, in the sense that they have maintained themselves in body and soul, have preserved their cultural identity to a large extent and mostly guarded their rituals and customs. This book highlights the atrocities inflicted on Kashmiri Pandits, the original inhabitants of the valley. No drama can rival the grandeur of their sufferings of the last seven centuries. The mass exodus of 1990 has left Kashmiri Pandits refugees in their own country for the last 30 years.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe names of Mirabai, Akka Mahadevi and Andal, are known to many, but innumerable women poets remain relatively unknown. When we hear of them, it is invariably as plaster saints or meek followers. It is time to smell the danger in their words again, to listen to their feral sensuality, their searing questions about custodians of gender and faith. It is time to tune into their brazenness, their heartbreaking longing. Not just for their sake but for ours too. In this anthology of sacred poetry that arrives after the much-loved book, Eating God, Arundhathi Subramaniam weaves together haunting voices of, by and for women across the Indian subcontinent. Here is a lineage of audacious woman-centred spirituality that traverses the poetry of ancient Buddhist nuns, Bhakti and Sufi mystics, tantrikas and Vedantins. There are women here, and men singing as women, and both raising their voices in praise of the sacred feminine. Brought to us through translation, these poems surprise with how intimately familiar their ravenous yearnings and ecstatic freedoms are. Wild Women invites us to reclaim an explosive inheritance of female power, rapture and wisdom.
