Cult of love. Select bibliography. Index. "This book chronicles the story of love which is considered an Indian creation. The first love story of the world was found in the Rig Veda and the first comprehensive work on love was written in India with Kamasutra becoming one of its offshoots. Love techniques were perfected over centuries and sculpted on the walls of temples of Khajuraho and Konark. Since ancient times, rishis in India have believed that it was love which came first and then followed the world. The origin and evolution of love in India is traced by the author in an elaborate manner, providing invaluable insights which make this book a rare treasury in itself. The book draws from concrete sources including cave paintings, ancient archaeological findings and a mass of literature belonging to the Vedic and Buddhist eras to give a complete portrayal of love. Through love lyrics, humorous plays and erotic descriptions, Love in Ancient India takes you through a timeless saga of royalty and grandeur, beauty and infidelity, all of which are interspersed with the concept of the world's most bewitching expression--love."

Varadpande, the first two being evocative works titled 'Mahabharata in Performance' and 'Epic Hinduism.' The present book reinvents stories and characters of the grand epic by Maharshi Vyasa with his erudite and innovative analysis and interpretation. Epic Dharma is most significant narration of the book which speaks of liberal tenets and culture of Dharma teachings of the epic. Mahabharata understands that Dharma cannot be fossilized, inflexible, rigid in its import but is governed by Desha-Kala-Paristhiti, place, time and circumstances. As it is product of intellect, Buddhi, the Buddhi, that is intelligent interpretation of Dharma injunctions, is supreme. The epic became popular through its narration and visual interpretation through dance, drama and music for centuries. The book traces the performative tradition of the epic. The book is an enlightened critique of the grand epic, the largest known literary scripture of the world and is treated by the author as a source of contemporary popular religion.
