This book represents the first attempt of its kind to present a detailed, systematic analysis of the upamana dharmas (Tertia comparationis) of the various objects of comparison found in the Mahabharata. An attempt is made here to present a detailed account of what we may call poetic expressions of the corpus. It is not a rhetorical discussion of the soul of the poetry of the Mahabharata. It rather aims at enumerating the symbolic, alliterative, paronomastic, or repetitive linguistic features that beautify the body of the Mahabharata. Chapter 1 deals with the similes (upama) of the corpus; the arrangement of the sections is based on the fields from which the objects of comparison (upamana) are collected. Chapters 2 throught 8 deal with the metaphors. Chapter 9 presents some specimens of popular idioms found in the corpus, arranged again according to the fields from which they are collected. Chapter 10 is the compilation of the passages representing typical figures of sound (sabdalamkaras). To complete the study, Chapter 11 analyzes passages representing the techniques of oral poetry.
Chakravarthi Ram-Prasad offers illuminating new perspectives on contemporary phenomenological theories of body and subjectivity, based on studies of classical Indian texts that deal with bodily subjectivity. Examining four texts from different genres - a medical handbook, epic dialogue, a manual of Buddhist practice, and erotic poetry - he argues for a 'phenomenological ecology' of bodily subjectivity in health, gender, contemplation, and lovemaking. An ecology is a continuous and dynamic system of interrelationships between elements, in which the salience accorded to some type of relationship clarifies how the elements it relates are to be identified. The paradigm of ecological phenomenology obviates the need to choose between apparently incompatible perspectives of the human. The delineation of body is arrived at by working back phenomenologically from the world of experience, with the acknowledgement that the point of arrival - a conception of what counts as bodiliness - is dependent upon the exact motivation for attending to experience, the areas of experience attended to, and the expressive tools available to the phenomenologist. Ecological phenomenology is pluralistic, yet integrates the ways experience is attended to and studied, permitting apparently inconsistent intuitions about bodiliness to be explored in novel ways. Rather than seeing particular framings of our experience as in tension with each other, we should see each such framing as playing its own role according to the local descriptive and analytic concern of a text.
· "LIFE OF A SOUL under the shadow of Gita,” is a powerful book, on the subjects of Spirituality, an underpinning of all religions and faiths. The book serves as a roadmap to direct our path and a moral code of conduct that holds together individuals, head and heart, intellect and emotions. · The human soul is “God miniaturized.” Souls’ conscious is to experience the Divine, and it is a part of you which never sleeps, never forgets and is eternal. The soul, in this profundity, has a likeliness and nearness to God. The soul is the energy of the universal love, wisdom, and compassion. Souls are an expression of beauty, imagination, and creativity. Rig Veda speaks of soul and God as two birds of beautiful wings, friends by nature who are perched on the same twigs of a tree. · A human being is neither body nor living being but Almighty Himself. We are spiritual being with human experience and not human beings with spiritual experience. Body and soul, although as real as God, are dependent on God. · If you see the moon, you see the beauty of God: if you see the sun, you see the power of God; If you see the mirror, you see the best creation of God. We are the best creation of God. The human body created by God, in His own image and likeliness, is the jewel of creation and has the capacity to deliver the soul from the cycle of birth and death to a higher level of existence. If you install God’s image in the temple of your heart to keep His company all the time, so He does not to have to wait to visit you at times of need.

This book unifies Science (Physics & Cosmology) with vedantic advait (monism) philosophies in a mutually consistent 'Science=Philosophy Symbiosis' with a paradigm shift in both. Science supports existence of all-composing and all-pervading chetan Paramatma God, Avishesh Brahm. Jagat (universe) is not unreal mithya like the snake in a rope during dark but very much real with all sorts of motions and changes mediated by three gunas (sat, raj, tam). It is created from the Vishesh Brahm, which generates from a fraction of the motionless, changeless, inactive Avishesh Brahm. Avishesh-Vishesh Advait presents a unique and novel science philosophy to review the Sankhya and Shankaracharya's philosophies. The book has a lot for the serious reader. By scientific definition an 'element', as our 'positrino' or 'negatrino' is itself non-composite but composes others. Every one of five 'elements': earth, water, agni, vayu, akash described in Shankaracharya's Tattwa Bodh is composed by all five hence none is an element.
