Dasavathara
Have you ever contemplated the profound significance behind Lord Vishnu’s majestic form as Varaha, the colossal boar, who bears the Earth upon his tusks? Or have you been captivated by the fierce Narasimha, intrigued by the reasons that led to his remarkable incarnation? Varaha and Narasimha are not just captivating tales; they represent two of the ten principal incarnations of Vishnu, known as the Dasavathara. These divine avatars embody Lord Vishnu’s commitment to restoring cosmic order throughout history. Among their ranks are the astute Vaamana, the formidable Parshurama, the virtuous Rama, and the beloved Krishna, each with their unique lessons and attributes. Delve into the enchanting narratives of these avatars and uncover the rich, underlying meanings that resonate across ages, while understanding that the theories of science and mythology may not be as far apart as they seem after all. Treat your senses by embarking on an inspiring visual journey with the author, as he unveils the remarkable temples that honour Vishnu and his avatars, showcasing sacred sites like Badrinath, Dwarkadheesh, Muktinath, and Triyuginarayan. The Dasavathara is not merely a recounting of myths; it serves as a vital reminder of life’s cyclical nature, and challenges us to reflect deeply on our own journeys and the choices we make in adversity.

Inter-Asia in Motion
This book explores dance and choreography as sites for the articulation of new theoretical and historical paradigms in inter-Asia cultural studies. The chapters in this volume cover a wide range of dance works, artists, genres, and media, from Kathak to K-pop flash mob dance, from Cold War diplomacy to avant-garde dance collaborations, and from festival dance to dance on screen. Working against the Western-centric category of “Asian dance” and Western-centric theorizations of intercultural performance that foreground “East-West” relationships, each contribution shows how dances in Asia make one another as their key aesthetic references beyond Eurocentric influences, as well as how inter-Asia relations emerge from cultural, geographical, and aesthetic diversity within the region. This book is the first of its kind in both cultural studies and dance studies. It will contribute greatly to readers’ understanding of how performance shapes and transforms the cultural and political dynamics of inter-Asia, with a focus on dance circulations in and across East, South, and Southeast Asia. Inter-Asia in Motion: Dance as Method will be a key resource for academics, researchers, and advanced students of Dance Studies, Performance Studies, Cultural Studies, Asian Studies, International Relations and Politics, History, and Sociology. The chapters included in this book were originally published in Inter-Asia Cultural Studies.
