Kashmir the land of Rishis
-11%Akshaya Prakashan, English Books, Religious & Spiritual Literature, इतिहासKashmir the land of Rishis
Kashmir is called the Garden of Rishis (Reshiver). Kashyapa Rishi, considered the founder of Kashmir mandala, is one of the Saptrishis mentioned in the Rig Veda. He is considered to be the Prajapati or progenitor of mankind. The pristine nature of Kashmir nurtured a host of sages or rishis in its bosom like Bharat Muni, Utpaladeva, Panini and many others who carry the credit of making Kashmir the land of Vedic knowledge and the ancient centre of learning. The rishi tradition in Kashmir has been very powerful and continued to be inherited by the Hindus of the valley until the advent of Islam in the 14th century.
Rajatarangini, the celebrated history of ancient Kashmir brought down up to CE 1149, gives excellent account of the impact of Rishi teachings on the people of the land, the foremost of which was non-violence and peaceful coexistence. Rishi teachings and their lives were the role model for the people of ancient Kashmir to be tied down to the unwritten constitution of nature which means that their teachings had gone into the blood and become part of entire social structure. The fact is that the teachings of those rishis can be called the foundation on which the huge edifice of Kashmiriyat was raised.
The advent of the Islamic faith in Kashmir through the Muslim missionaries of Iran and Central Asia is a unique phenomenon in the history of mankind. Firstly, the entire basis of the religion brought from Arabia was in no way similar to those that had flourished in Kashmir for centuries. Secondly, the tribal culture which had shaped the religious construct of the Muhammadans was fully alien to the culture of the people in ancient Kashmir. Thirdly, and very significantly, the Iranian or Central Asian missionaries who brought the Islamic faith to Kashmir were the progeny of proselytised ancestors of Aryan stock and not of Semitic stock. Psychologists and anthropologists tell us that a society entirely converting to a new faith, for whatever reasons, generally panders to extremism in the new faith just because either it wants to convince the conqueror of its faithfulness to the new civilization or vies with the conqueror to prove that he is a better adherent to the new faith brought to him. This is exemplified by the animus and hatred which today’s Iran nurses against the Israelis.
This is a book in which, the author has inserted photographs of numerous temples, shrines (asthapans), viharas, stupas, ponds, water bodies, hillocks, structures etc. most of these in dilapidated condition owing to the vagaries of weather and eccentricities of human nature. The author has visited most of these places personally and described how arduous journeys he had to undertake to get their photographs and make a small note culled out from books of history or from the stories collected from the local elders who have inherited the stories from their elders. Being a retired military officer, he thankfully acknowledges the logistic support he received from his friends in the services and which helped him immensely in writing this account.SKU: n/a -

KASHMIRI PANDITS through Fire and Brimstone
-10%Akshaya Prakashan, इतिहास, राजनीति, पत्रकारिता और समाजशास्त्र, सही आख्यान (True narrative)KASHMIRI PANDITS through Fire and Brimstone
On 15 August 1947 India attained independence but the Hindus of the State of Jammu and Kashmir, particularly those in the valley lost it for two reasons. One was the Pakistan sponsored tribal attack on 22 October 1947, and the second was the incorporation of a clause of Special Status for J&K in the Indian Constitution. Incorporation of this clause was tantamount to writing the death warrant of the minuscule Kashmiri Hindu (Pandit) religious minority of the valley. New Delhi snatched J&K from the hands of a benign secular ruler and gave into the hands of a rabid despot, who, through dubious maneuvering and machinations established his dynastic rule over J&K with the patronage of the contemporary Sultans of Delhi.
The book in hand is a sordid saga of the atrocities, discrimination, blackmail and repression unleashed by fanatical and fundamentalist Kashmir Valley leadership moving about wearing a mask of “secular democracy” for seven long decades, of course with the sadistic patronage of New Delhi. Few communities in the world have suffered what the Kashmiri Hindus suffered viz. discrimination, suppression, ethnic cleansing, genocide and exile. They are refugees in their own country. And what is more, 73 years have gone by and no state or central government, no human rights organization, no NGO and no international organization ever demanded an impartial inquiry into this huge human tragedy that has resulted in the genocide of nearly two thousand people and the extirpation of the entire community of about five hundred thousand souls from their five thousand years old homes and hearths in Kashmir, The contents of this volume will make one understand what religious bigotry and persecution mean. The authors have been an eye witness to the entire saga, nay, they have been part of this sordid narrative and a such nothing can be more authentic than what they have recorded.

Akshaya Prakashan, सनातन हिंदू जीवन और दर्शन
MANDUKYA UPANISD and PRASNA UPANISAD
MANDUKYA, though it is the smallest UPANISD – it consists of only twelve short passages – it encompasses the entire range of human consciousness. It describes beautifully all the states of consciousness along with the discipline – Sadhna to raise our consciousness from the lowest to the highest, culminating in full attainment of the Self-Atman or Brahman.
The main subject discussed in the Prasna Upnisad that of Prasna (The Primal Energy) in the form of four questions. The fifth question is about Pranava. In it we get the indication about the Sadhana spiritual discipline to realise the ultimate Truth. The last question is about the Goal, about the Being whom we have to discover in ourselves.

इतिहास लेखन में तथ्यों को उनकी असली तसवीर के साथ प्रस्तुत करना ही इतिहास के साथ न्याय
होता हैै। स्वतंत्र भारत में भारत के विधाताओं ने आपसी सौहार्द की दुहाई देते हुऐ, भारत के इतिहास से
ऐसे प्रसंगों को निकाल दिया, जो रक्तरंजित थे या जिसमें अमानवीयता ने अपनी सारी हदें पार कर दी
थीं। ऐसे ही प्रसंगों में से एक प्रसंग मोपला विद्रोह भी था। इस विद्रोह को एक सामान्य भूस्वामी बनाम
ड्डषि-कर्मी के विवाद के रूप में कह कर उपेक्षित कर दिया गया जो कि इतिहास के साथ धोखा था।
मोपला विद्रोह मोपला उपद्रवियों द्वारा हिंदुओं के ऊपर किये गये अत्याचारों की दास्तान है।
वीभत्सता, संगठित हिंसा और नृशंसता को देखते हुऐ, विद्रोहियों के द्वारा किया गया यह हिंसक ड्डत्य
मालाबार के इतिहास में अभूतपर्व है।
लेखक स्वर्गीय सी. गोपालन नायर ने इस पुस्तक में मूलतः अखबारों में प्रकाशित खबरों तथा कुछ
सरकारी दस्तावेजों का हवाला दिया है, जो उन्हें उपलब्ध हो पाये। लेखक ने तथ्यों और साक्ष्यों को
सामने रख कर सत्य को उद्घाटित किया है, जो मोपला विद्रोह के यथार्थ को स्पष्ट कर देता है।“It would be well if Mr. Gandhi could be taken into Malabar to see with his own eyes the ghastly horrors which have been created by the preaching of himself and his “loved brothers” Muhammad and Shaukat Ali…How does Mr. Gandhi like the Mopla spirit as shown by one of the prisoners in the Hospital, who was dying from the results of asphyxiation? He asked the surgeon, if he was going to die, and the Surgeon answered that he feared he would not recover. “Well, I’m glad I killed fourteen infidels,” said the Brave, God-fearing Mopla, whom Gandhi so much admires, who “are fighting for what they consider as Religion, and in a manner, they consider as religious.”

अस्त्र-शस्त्र का उत्तर अस्त्र-शस्त्र से देना उचित है। लेकिन विचारों का उत्तर तो विचार ही हो सकता है। किसी विचार, किसी लेख-कविता या पुस्तक के उत्तर में तलवार निकालना मजबूती नहीं, कमजोरी की निशानी है। किन्तु अरब से लेकर यूरोप, एसिया, अफ्रीका तक, हर कहीं इस्लामी नेता और संगठन सरल, संयत, वैचारिक संघर्ष से बचते हैं। इसे सदैव हिंसा से दबाने की कोशिश करते हैं। सदियों से, बल्कि आरंभ से ही, इस में कोई बदलाव नहीं आया है। स्वयं प्रोफेट मुहम्मद ने अपने विचारों पर किसी के प्रतिवाद, संदेह का यही उत्तर दिया था।
तब क्या इस्लाम कागजी शेर नहीं है? एक दुर्बल, भयभीत मतवाद, जो केवल धमकी, हिंसा, छल-कपट, अनुचित रूप से उठाई जा रही विशेष सुविधाओं, अनुचित-असमान नियमों के बल से चल रहा है। ऐसा मत-विश्वास कितने दिन चलता रह सकता है? यह एक बुनियादी प्रश्न है, जिस से भारत और वर्तमान विश्व की कई समस्याएं जुड़ी हुई हैं।
इस समस्या का समाधान सैनिक तरीके से नहीं, बल्कि शिक्षा में है। ध्यान दें, कुरान में असंख्य बार कई प्रसंगों में ‘प्रमाण’, ‘स्पष्ट प्रमाण’, की बातें की गई है। अतः मुसलमान किसी विचार-बिन्दु, विषय में प्रमाण, सबूत, एविडेंस के महत्व से परिचित हैं। केवल उन्हें प्रमाण वाली कसौटी को उन विचारों, कानूनों, विवरणों, दलीलों पर भी लागू करके देखने की जरूरत है जिन्हें वे स्वतः-प्रमाणिक मानते रहे हैं। जैसे, मूर्तिपूजकों को घृणित समझना; इस्लाम से पहले या बाहर के मानव-समाजों को मूर्ख मानना; जीने के बदले मरने को अधिक अच्छा मानकर ‘जन्नत’ पाने के लिए हर तरह के चित्र-विचित्र काम करना; जिहाद को सब से बड़ा कर्तव्य समझना; मनुष्य को गुलाम बनाकर बेचना-खरीदना; स्त्रियों को वस्तु-संपत्ति मात्र भोग रूप में देखना; आदि मान्यताओं को विवेक से देखने की जरूरत है। ये मान्यताएं कोई ईश्वरीय देन या ‘सर्वकालिक सत्य’ नहीं हैं – इस की परीक्षा की जानी और शिक्षा दी जानी चाहिए। (पुस्तक अंश)

जो लोग इस्लाम की आड़ में ‘लॉ लेसनेस’ करते हैं, वे स्वयं इस्लाम के आधारभूत स्तंभों का पालन नहीं करते। अतः कुरान हदीस के अनुसार उन्हें मोमिन नहीं कहा जा सकता। ऐसे लोग तो वस्तुतः बनावटी मुसलमान है। इस्लाम इनके लिए अवैध आपराधिक कार्यों के लिए एक ढाल भर है, इनको इस्लाम में कोई आस्था नहीं है। कुरान के अनुसार, उन्हें इस्लाम के नाम पर मस्जिद, मदरसा, कब्रिस्तान, मजार, दरगाह आदि पर और उनके प्रबंध पर कोई भी हक नहीं है।

Unlike collection of essays on Indian language and cul ture this collection is ardently concentrated upon the most important language of the globe i.e. Sanskrit. In this collection eight essays are included.
The first essay is authored by Sir William Jones (1746-1794). He was an Anglo-Welsh philologist, a poise Judge on the Supreme Court of Judicature at Fort William in Bengal, and a scholar of ancient India, particularly known for his proposition of the existence of a relationship among European and Indo-Aryan languages, which he coined as Indo-European. In his essay he says that the Sanskrit language, whatever be its antiquity, is of a wonderful structure; more perfect than the Greek, more copious than the Latin and more exquisitely refined than either; yet learning to both of them a stronger affinity, both in the roots of verbs and in the forms of grammar, than could possibly have been produced by accident; so strong, indeed, that no philologer could examine them all three without believing them to have strong from some common source, which, perhaps, no longer exists.
