About the Book
Krishna in Indian Thought, Literature and Music by Mandira Ghosh is a distinct book on limitless presence of Lord Krishna in Indian minds and consciousness from time immemorial. Krishna, the eighth incarnation of Shri Vishnu, creator of unparalleled Spiritual text, the Gita, is the epitome of Dharma or righteousness. The book reflects on several aspects of the magnetic Divine, who influenced Indian literature and Music as no other. As the Ultimate source of all energies, realisation of Him arrives through Bhakti or devotion, nishkam karma, action without expecting fruits, through the path of gyan or knowledge and through sadhana to reach the transcendental state in attainment of bliss or ananda. From Sanskrit literati to modern English poet's verses on Krishna are included in the book. He is therefore is Changeless in Change. Radha as His Hldani Shakti and Rukmini with whom he enjoyed conjugal love depict shringara Ras as He is also embodiment of all rasa or essence. Krishna is thus a metaphor for Indian literature and inspiration for creative Indian minds as He is the Mover and is also in Motion. The Power within and Power without. The author thinks, He has inspired generations and will be the inspiration for future poets, musicians, sculptors, artists and above all scientific minds. This book is an evident to that as Power of Krishna is Anantham or limitless.
