Anthropology of Ancient Hindu Kingdoms
The present volume on Anthropology of Ancient Hindu Kingdoms is based on an empirical field-work which continued for several years with gaps in between as well as the textual data collected through the library works carried out at Darbhanga, Patna, Calcutta, Ranchi, Nagpur, Raipur, Bilaspur etc. The study of the ancient Hindu Kingdoms reveals, firstly, that different Hindu Kingdoms were the seats of learning, and accelerated several cultural activities binding together the diverse faiths and traditions into one civilizational region.
Ruling Dynasty Of Mithila
Ruling Dynasty of Mithila is a book written by Amarkant Mishra. The author was the PA to His Highness, the late Dr. Sir Kameswar Singh, the Maharaja Dhiraja of Darbhanga. Mithila was the state territory of King Janak, where the King of Awadh Raja Dasharath had visited to marry his first son Lord Ram. Mithila was a state with its own culture, literature and different philosophy of life. Acharya Sankaracharya was defeated here. Darbhanga was the town where the last Maharaja Sir Kameswar Singh made his state capital and constructed a monumental palace named Nargauna Palace. Dr. Sir Kameswar Singh was the biggest landlord in independent India. His role in independence was a prominent one. He was a member of the constituent assembly. This book contains the entire scenario of the abolishment of the Zamindari system and all the changes that came during the change of reign from British to Indian rule. The book also contains the contribution of Maharaja Sir Kameswar Singh to the education, literature, and culture of Mithila at that time.
Siva Sutras
Siva Sutras are considered to be a revealed book of Yoga: the supreme identity of the individual self with the Divine. Here an English translation of the Siva Sutras has been provided, together with an abstract of each sutra, which throws a flood of light on the entire system of Saiva Yoga. A glossary of technical terms and index are appended for the convenience of the reader. Four commentaries on Siva Sutras are available at present, the Vimarsini commentary of Ksemaraja in prose, the Siva-sutra-vrtti by some anonymous author in prose, the Siva-sutra-varttikam by Varadaraja in verse. The Siva-Sutra-vrtti is so close to Vimarsini that it appears to be either a preliminary draft or a later abstract of the Vimarsini. There is a strong presumption that the author of the Vrtti was Ksemaraja himself. For more information, please head to www.mlbd.co.in

Bihar Days
Prior to 1947, the Maithil Brahmans dominated North Bihar culturally, politically, and economically. Darbhanga Raj, the richest zamindari estate in British India, was owned by a family of the elite sub-group of Brahmans, the Srotriyas. The high prestige of this elite was based on a lifestyle prescribed by ancient law codes involving simplicity of life, daily Vedic rites, and intermarriage within a small network of lineages 24 generations deep. It was a highly conservative, inward-looking, isolationist community. In 1980, anthropologist Carolyn Brown Heinz was privileged to see inside this elite community with a one-year grant from the Indo-US Subcommission and return trips over the next two ...
