Hardcover. Zustand: New. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar (14 April 1891 - 6 December 1956), popularly known as Babasaheb Ambedkar, was an Indian jurist, economist, politician and social reformer who inspired the Dalit Buddhist movement and campaigned against social discrimination towards the untouchables (Dalits), while also supporting the rights of women and labour. History, whether Indian or European, gives no unqualified support to this dogma. In Europe, the old traditions and superstitions which seemed to the eighteenth century to be the very root of injustice, have been eliminated. Who Were the Shudras? is a history book published by Indian social reformer and polymath B. R. Ambedkar in 1946. The book discusses the origin of the Shudra Varna.

They were a part of the Kshatriya Varna. Ambedkar also discusses Aryan race theory and rejects Indo-Aryan migration theory in the book. This comprehensive book throws a new light on Indian social history. Students and general readers will find this book valuable in their work.…

Hardcover. Zustand: New. Cultural development is a historical process. Our ancestors learnt many things from their predecessors. With the passage of time they also added to it from their own experience and gave up those which they did not consider useful. We in turn have learnt many things from our ancestors. As time goes we continue to add new thoughts, new ideas to those already existent and sometimes we give up some which we don't consider useful any more. This is how culture is transmitted and carried forward from generation to next generation. The culture we inherit from our predecessors is called our cultural heritage. This heritage exists at various levels. Humanity as a whole has inherited a culture which may be called human heritage. A nation also inherits a culture which may be termed as national cultural heritage. Indian culture and traditions are something which has now become renowned all across the world.

Hardcover. Zustand: New. The word Islamic identifies art and architecture created for people of Muslim faith. Historically, it also refers to works created in geographic areas ruled by Muslims. Islam as a religion began around 600 CE in what is today Saudi Arabia. By the end of the seventh century, it spread beyond the Arabian Peninsula and eventually covered large areas of Asia and the Middle East, as well as parts of Europe and North Africa. Islam was a religious and cultural force, and one important idea impacts almost all Islamic art and architecture. Out of respect for Allah, or God, no images of living creatures are depicted. The term for this is aniconism, the absence of direct representation of nature, especially animals or people, in art. Islamic art encompasses the visual arts produced in the Islamic world. Islamic architecture includes two important types of buildings. The first is a structure of worship, called a mosque. Typically, mosques had large central domes and entrances of semi-circular arches.

These eight-limbs of yoga represent the various branches of the philosophy of the yoga sutras that form the foundation in the Ashtanga Yoga School. The Ashtanga philosophy is to integrate all of the eight limbs of yoga, which include: Yama (moral codes), Niyama (self-discipline), Asana (posture), Pranayama (breath control), Pratyahara (sense withdrawal), Dharana (concentration), Dhyana (meditation), and Samadhi (oneness with the self).
