ISBN: 9798171290412 - hanuman: a pilgrim's practical guide: real routes, honest timings, and the truth behind 15 temples across 3 continents — from ayodhya to america (6 risultati)

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - Fifteen temples. Three continents. One question no other guide answers honestly: how do you actually get there, and what happens once you arrive This is the companion volume to HANUMAN: The Story of Fifteen Temples, from Ayodhya to America - and it exists because knowing a myth and knowing how to stand inside it turned out to be two different kinds of knowledge. The first book gave you the stories. This one gives you the roads, the timings, the rituals, and the truth. What makes this guide different from every other Hindu temple travel book on the market: Real routes, not vague directions. Custom hand-drawn route maps for every temple - how pilgrims actually travel there, whether that's a coracle crossing the Tungabhadra at Hampi, a 90-minute mountain trek to Anjaneri, or the exact sequence of stops through Ayodhya's Hanuman Garhi circuit. Honest sourcing, not recycled folklore. Every single chapter ends with a sourcing note naming exactly what's independently corroborated, what rests on tradition alone, and - unlike any comparable guide - what this book itself got wrong on a first pass and corrected in the open. A misattributed festival. An impossible founding date. A birthplace legend pinned to the wrong hill. If a claim couldn't be verified, this guide says so, rather than dressing tradition up as settled fact. Contested claims told fairly, not resolved for you. Two entire chapters are devoted to rival Hanuman birthplace traditions - Karnataka's Anjanadri and Maharashtra's Anjaneri - each told with full seriousness and zero favoritism, because that's what honest travel writing actually requires. The only guide that leaves India at all. Two full chapters travel where no competing Hanuman guide goes: to a Trinidad village where descendants of 19th-century indentured laborers built the tallest Hanuman statue outside India, and to a New Mexico ashram where a murti spent a full year parked on a trailer before anyone found it a permanent home. If your own devotion has ever crossed an ocean, this book already knows the feeling. Inside, temple by temple, you'll find: - Exact darshan timings, festival calendars, and how to avoid the worst crowds - What each ritual actually involves, so nothing catches you off guard - The real history behind founding claims - verified where possible, flagged honestly where not - Practical logistics: how to get there, what it costs, what to bring - The genuinely strange, rarely-told stories behind fifteen sacred sites - a saint's rod still touching foreheads two centuries later, a mountain flattened by a god simply sitting down, a statue that took ten months of carving to 'wake up' Read the myths first, in the companion volume. Come to this book when you're ready to actually go. Fifteen temples. Three continents. Every route mapped, every claim checked, every mistake corrected in the open.…
