No Illustrations. As New in As New jacket. Book CONDITION: What makes this book "AS NEW? " 1 lightly bumped corner and on the DJ some light edge wear top spine and a small tanned area front at edge. UNREAD 1994 HarperCollins hardcover (maroon boards) & dust jacket, first American edition (paper standards cited), first printing. No illustrations. Bilingual-English/Hindi. CONTENT: Meera, they said, was mad. She is also the symbol Mahatma Gandhi chose to inspire his modern Indian renaissance, and the archetypal female saint, whose songs of love and devotion remain an integral part of Indian life and culture. Meera was a sixteenth century Rajput princess who renounced her privileged life and royal family to live as a mendicantwandering, dancing, and singing the praises of God. A devotee of Krishna, she was part of an influential religious movement (bhakti) that rejected distinctions of caste and creed, shunned the stultifying rituals and inaccessible scripture of conservative religion, and believed that direct union with God was possible for all-men and women, highborn and lowborn. Mystical, celebratory, and frankly feminine, the songs of Meera embrace and evoke all of life-the ordinary, lowly, and humble; the natural world and all its creatures; love and longing. They express a passionate faith that liberates and breaks down barriers, merging the human and the divine and challenging all notions of rank and hierarchy. Both poetry and prayer, these extraordinary songs reflect an all encompassing spirituality and ardent devotion that remains part of the living folk tradition of India.
