Book Description

We live in a world which is highly advanced in terms of science and technology. But there are several fascinating ancient legends, myths and mysteries, which are yet to be explained completely. Archaeologists, scientists as well as interested people travelled to investigate the pyramids of Egypt, the Bermuda Triangle, Eater Island, and several other places to find lost civilizations and other undiscovered treasures. As I came to know about the discovery of an ancient civilization, Dwaraavatii, under the seabed of Dwarka, I rushed to Dwarka to find out the truth of the legend. My mythological book, Last Days of Dwaraavatii, will try to reveal the truthfulness of Shrii Krishna’s reign based on myth, ancient treatise as well as archaeological findings. The reader will get a lot of information about different areas as well as the opportunity to cultivate an interest to learn more. Although the book doesn’t cover everything that’s going on in this world, it is a great reading experience, and it serves as a gateway and an inspiration for further reading.

Book Description

The three primeval qualities of nature are Sattva (mode of goodness), Rajah (mode of passion) and Tamah (mode of ignorance). All these three modes of qualities, produced by material nature, confine the immortal soul to the mortal body. Now, the mode of goodness being purest than others confines in the happiness. The mode of passion confines in the material fugitive activities and the mode of ignorance enveloping the wisdom is enamoured in misfortune. From the material nature is created six enemies of life at every moment: sex-passions (kaam), rage (krodh), greed (lobh), infatuation (moho), vanity (mada) and envy (matsarya). Superabundance and the influence of these six passions sometimes outpoured the emotion of human life and were sometimes devastated. Human life, as influenced by these six passions, was cast off to the earth like dried leaves. The reason for this short explanation is that the collection of six stories described how the human life is cast off like dried leaves, due to the influence of the six passions. The readers will get concrete indication about the six enemies of human life, which may help them to adjust their lives in a righteous way.

Book Description

A vivid journey back to the time of Krishna, his holy city, and the Mahabharata War • Recounts ecstatic celebrations, Krishna’s love for his wives and sons, and events surrounding the Mahabharata War • Offers potent spiritual lessons from Krishna’s teachings and stresses Krishna’s ability to contain all opposites and stand above duality • Provides a historical timeline and real dates for the Mahabharata War and the sinking of Krishna’s city beneath the sea Located on the west coast of India in the state of Gujarat, the city of Dwaraka is considered one of the seven holy cities of India. Archaeological discoveries of ruins and artifacts off the city’s coast have now conclusively proven what many have long believed: Modern Dwaraka is built on the same site as the famed city of the same name from the Puranas and the Mahabharata, the “Golden City” of Lord Krishna. Transporting us back five thousand years to the time of Krishnavatara, the age in which Krishna lived, Vanamali leads us on a journey alongside Lord Krishna as he reigns over the ancient port city of Dwaraka and helps the Pandavas through the Mahabharata War. Recounting ecstatic celebrations, Krishna’s love for his wives and sons, and events surrounding the epic war, the author stresses Krishna’s ability to contain all opposites and stand above duality like a lotus leaf floating on a running stream. Offering potent spiritual lessons throughout her story, she shows how the truly spiritual individual is able to unreservedly accept all dimensions of life and rise above all dualities of existence, war and peace, love and hate, sex and abstinence, action and meditation. She also provides a historical timeline for the Mahabharata War and the sinking of Krishna’s city beneath the sea--3126 BCE and 3090 BCE, respectively--and shows how the Mahabharata War occurred under circumstances quite similar to those of the present day, both politically and astrologically. Through her vivid tale and her personal connection with Krishna across many lifetimes, Vanamali shows how the magic and mystery of Krishna’s ancient holy city live on through his spiritual teachings.
