India And Japan

The present monograph deals with cultural interaction between India and Japan during 5th-14th cent. A.D. in the field of religion, languages and literature, art and painting. The story of the spread and dissemination of Buddhism and Brahmanism in the countries of Asia is really a thrilling story of Indian missionaries whose brilliant exploits in those far-off lands constitute a fascinating chapter in the cultural history of the world. Unfortunately the early Indian records have nothing to say about the activities of these noble sons of India. It is from the Chinese annals that we know how their selfless work had built up a common civilization for nearly three quarters of the Asiatic continent.

It was in the beginning of the fourth century A.D. that Buddhism entered Korea from northern Chinese countries and Korea's close contact with Japan paved the way for the spread of this religion in that country also. Although the substance of Japanese Buddhism was based on Chinese Buddhism it was always known that Buddhism was originally an Indian religion. However, it has been only in recent times that direct relations with India have been established. In this connection it is interesting to note that in the early periods when successive attempts of the Japanese monks to come to India to learn the language and the teaching of the Buddha failed, they devised another method to achieve their objective. They visited china one after another and made thorough and extensive study of the Sanskrit and Chinese languages to have a deep knowledge of the philosophy and teachings of Buddhism which were preserved in their languages in China. The history of the adventures of these Japanese and Indian monks is "a saga of extreme fortitude and endurance and of braving tremendous perils for the sake of religion". the dissemination of a synthesized variety of the Buddhist faith and ideology by the Japanese and the Indian monks and a study of language-manuals, art-objects, folklore and formal texts clearly reveals India's contribution to and transformation of the two heritages.

Art In Art

Position of the Creative Arts in Society raises certain questions in the minds of people, specially those who are concerned with them. Why art, and its need for human expression? How is art to be evaluated? What are the different levels on which expression through art takes place? What separates good art from bad art? How does art document and communicate? What is Beauty, and how do recent trends reflect its changing connotation? Difficult as these questions are, they need to be answered in a way which makes are more meaningful.

After wielding the brush, playing the sitar, interaction with other creative arts, administrating and teaching for decades, Omprakash Sharma has put together all his experiences to present a holistic view of the Arts. Thus the ideas expressed in this book are of someone who has himself been involved in the process of creating art - its ecstasies, trials and agonies. This lends the book a purposeful subjectivity. At the same time, the numerous references of observations mad by others in their creative journey impart to it a vital objectivity.

The Creative Arts have generated tremendous interest and dialogue in the past few decades. Therefore such a book was greatly needed and it is hoped that 'Art in Art will bring necessary perspective.

Indian Cricket - A Complete History

First-class cricket in India is over forty years old. During this period it has developed in various ways, in technique, personality and popularity.

For long years Indian cricket was unable to hold its own in international competition. It had to be satisfied with occasional victories. But it asserted itself in 1971. Though its record after 1973 has been chequered, it can no longer be despised.

This book traces the development of Indian cricket, confining itself to the first-class game, season by season according to the category of competition. It also pays some attention to the aesthetics of the game.

The Kamasastra (v. 1.0)

A South Indian Treatise on the Kamasastra

The Rati-Ratana-Pradipika, a minor text on erotica written in South India by a member of the Wadiyar royal family, is translated and annotated here with scholarly apparatus and academic understanding of sexual mechanics by a member of the Wadiyar royal family 350 years later. While the original text is incomplete, the treatment of the text by Sivapriyananda will make it a welcome contribution to India’s very popular ancient erotica. Sivapriyananda has made a distinct departure from the traditional material. The art work accompanying the text is by ‘Ganjifa’ Raghupati Bhatta, perhaps India’s foremost contemporary erotic artist and complements both the ancient text and the very modern annotations to the text.
