Krishna of the Bhagavata is adored as a poornavatara, not only because Krishnastu Bhagavan swayam, but also because of the vesture of finite-hood that God assumed as Devaki’s Son. He acted in every human role. Except when one thinks of the superhuman marvels that the Bhagavata associates with him, at other times the intensely human in Krishna annexes our heart to him making us kin to Him. This approach to Krishna, does not, however, detract from the sense of devout adoration.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eIn fact, it can be an interesting exercise of imagination to portray Krishna in human colours projecting into him the storms and stresses of our lives, our attitudes and aspirations; that is, to see Him as Devaki and Yesoda, as many a gopi and gopala, as Putana and Trivakra, as Kamsa and Sisupala did.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSri Munshi has treated Krishna in similar manner in his Krishnavatara.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSri Munshi has taken, as he himself confesses, ‘unforgivable liberties with the accepted image;’ and, as a pious Hindu, he trusts that ‘the devout will forgive’ him.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSri Munshi does not narrate the story of Krishna in the conventional style.

But one feels that devotional susceptibilities need to suffer no jolt and may not be outraged if the story is read as an exercise in realistic imagination if putting that way is not to indulge in a contradiction; that is, as a literary effort to bring the Puranic Krishna to the modern mind and make Him live and move among the Pandavas - a lovable man with a far-reaching vision, in whose personality and achievement we can trace the lineament of a divinity. The book has to be read and appreciated with this background.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSri Munshi is a wonderful storyteller and every page of this book bears evidence of his mastery of this art, blending tension and relief to hold the attention and sustain interest.

The book explores the political, cultural, and social aspects of Mughal rule, covering significant rulers like Babur, Akbar, Jahangir, Shah Jahan, and Aurangzeb. It also discusses the empire’s administration, military strategies, and the eventual weakening of central authority, leading to the empire's fragmentation and the rise of regional powers. Majumdar emphasizes both the grandeur and the challenges of Mughal governance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48328850014458,"sku":"ZOSX7PKYWIVB","price":1465.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/0473\/5226\/files\/ZOSX7PKYWIVB_1.jpg?v=1726068131"},{"product_id":"the-creative-art-of-life-k-m-munshi-bharatiya-vidya-bhavan","title":"The Creative Art of Life by K M Munshi [Paperback]","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003eBharatiya Vidya Bhavan\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e stands for an essentially Indian education.

In doing so, the theory and practice of creative education both in ancient and modern India as well as in the West were drawn upon. Education to be essentially Indian, must follow the lines of Indian culture. This culture is not only dance, music, and drama; not a mere matter of religious practices, social institutions, or philosophical doctrines. It is a way of life through which only we can be true to ourselves and fulfill our destiny. Education in India should be creative; while catering for the acquisition of the widest range of knowledge available in modern times, it should predominantly inculcate the fundamental values of Indian Culture. Education to be creative, has to form the outlook and character and develop a sense of essential values. The physical roots of human beings are as much in their land, as their psychological, moral, and spiritual roots are in its culture, Education to be creative has to draw its sustenance from the land and its culture; that is, in India it has to take its stand on India.

This anthology of more than forty pieces is a kaleidoscopic argument for the power and the glory of science.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBreathtaking, brilliant and passionate, these essays, journalism, lectures and letters make an unanswerable case for the wonder of scientific discovery and its power to stir the imagination; for the practical necessity of scientific endeavour to society; and for the importance of the scientific way of thinking – particularly in today’s ‘post-truth’ world.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWith an introduction and new commentary by the author, subjects range from evolution and Darwinian natural selection to the role of scientist as prophet, whether science is itself a religion, the probability of alien life in other worlds, and the beauties, cruelties and oddities of earthly life in this one. Alongside the explications, the celebrations and the controversies are wonderfully funny ventures into satire and parody, and moving personal reflections in memory and honour of others.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eScience in the Soul is a sparkling showcase for Professor Dawkins' rapier wit, the clarity, precision and vigour he brings to an argument, the beauty of his prose, the depth of his feeling and his capacity for joy.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e","brand":"Orient Blackswan Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48328844771578,"sku":"ZD7POKQYJG3S","price":489.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/0473\/5226\/files\/ZD7POKQYJG3S_Cover_1.jpg?v=1726150127"},{"product_id":"capital-letters-abc-write-and-practice-capital-letters-a-to-z-book-for-kids-writing-fun-wonder-house-books-wonder-house-books","title":"Capital Letters Abc: Write and Practice Capital Letters A to Z Book For Kids (Writing Fun) by Wonder House Books [Paperback]","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn excellent first step to prepare for school; this is a perfect early learning book to help your child identify and write individual capital letters of the English alphabet.
