Alain Danielou
The Hindu Temple
Inner Traditions 2001. First edition. Softcover. New. Danielou`s masterpiece on the erotic nature of the sacred symbolism of the Hindu temple. - Includes stunning photographs from the major temple complexes of India. - By Alain Danielou one of the greatest authorities on Hinduism. Ancient Indian architectural treatises state that a temple lacking erotic imagery would be ineffective and maleficent. The erotic statues and representations that cover the outer and inner walls of the Hindu temple serve both a magical and an instructional purpose. Through the power of the yantras--the magical diagrams created by the placement of the erotic imagery--the architect made the temple a faithful reflection of the divine. At the same time this imagery educated the faithful about the fundamental aspects of the Hindu religion wherein the union of opposites in the sexual act is the perfect image of the creative principle and erotic enjoyment is a reflection of divine bliss. Alain Danielou`s masterpiece on the Hindu temple now translated for the first time into English provides a stunningly illustrated tour of the major temple complexes of India. The erotic sculptures that cover the walls of these temples are not merely symbolic portrayals of voluptuous acts but serve as profound reminders that man is closest to the divine during the instant of sexual transcendence. Printed Pages: 130. Inner Traditions paperback

The Raga-s of Northern Indian Music
Munshiram Manoharlal Publishers Pvt. Ltd. 2014. 5th or later edition. Hardcover. New. 15 x 23 cm. The first part of the book traces the history of Indian music and the continuity of its theory and practice for more than two thousand years. It is based on many years` research into the vast ancient Sanskrit literature of music. These valuable technical treatises which lie in the form of scarcely catalogued manuscripts throughout the public and private libraries of India had hitherto remained unemplored. Part Two transcribes and studies in detail 50 typical Raga-s. Each is preceded by a Sanskrit poem in translation which depicts the atmosphere; then follows an analysis of the scale covering its intervals and expression a study of the theme with its characteristic motives and finally a typical development. The present work is based on the author`s two-volume Northern Indian Music published in London but not America some ten years ago but long out of print and much sought after by students. It was described by Colin Mason in the Manchester Guardian as ""of immense value to any practical musician"" and ""an invaluable addition to the very scanty literature of a fascinating and neglected subject"". This new version contains a number of additional Raga-s; the earlier text has been extensively revised and many music examples redrawn for greater clarity and accuracy. Some abridgement has taken place but only of material which appeared originally for the benefit of Indian readers unfamiliar with Western staff notation those able to read Sanskrit and specialists in Sanskrit literature. The book provides modern composers outside India with a source of new inspiration and enables practising musicians to play and study some of the endlessly variegated modes for which Indian music is unique.
