Hinduism Today’s latest issue is one of its richest yet. Here are a few highlights:
Is the question, “How can I improve the world?” impossibly difficult? It is not necessarily so, according to Publisher Bodhinatha who suggests practical approaches and application of some basic principles. He shows that raising our children to be spiritual, for instance, will have a cumulative effect down the road and eventually make a real difference. The advice and tips given here will be treasured by all who have good intentions and a positive turn of mind.
The major article of the issue consists of a visit to India’s exquisite Krishna artists. Their tradition is ancient, fully integrated with devotion and perpetuated via the guru-sishya relationship. Find out how they derive their amazing colors from nature, and how the tradition is meticulously preserved and efforts to create a contemporary expression of it.
A 5-page article takes us on another visit–to where no man had gone before: a plunge into the sea to behold the ancient holy city of Dvaraka, where Lord Krishna was prince. Long thought by many to be a myth, this submerged city may be Krishna’s Dvaraka. See photos of its remains, visible several meters under the sea off the coast of Gujarat. This inspiring article covers the history, lore and archeological details.
For those of us reaching our golden years, here is “Aging Gracefully,” a most relevant, practical and helpful 14-page article collecting all the wisdom and practical advice to make this time truly golden. Includes health and ayurveda tips. (The young may wish to preserve the article for future reference.)
There are several articles by youth and about youth, and–oh, yes–another magnificent temple by the BAPS people. This time in Toronto. Four pages will tell you how they do it.
