About the Book: This book delves into the intriguing and complex subject of death in the context of Hindu mythology and Indian tradition. Yama, the god of death in Hinduism, is often perceived as a figure of dread. Despite this, death itself is not feared in the same manner, as it is viewed as a natural and inevitable part of life in Indian culture, akin to poverty, sickness, and old age.
Gian Giuseppe Filippi, in his work, explores the Indian perspective on mortality, from conception to death, and the journey to Yama's kingdom. Drawing from a wide array of Indian literature, customs, beliefs, rituals, and scriptures, the author presents a detailed account of how death has been perceived and dealt with in Hindu tradition for millennia. This book also combines scientific objectivity with the emotional and spiritual aspects of the theme of death.
The book is enriched by the author's extensive research, which includes studies of both classical and modern Indian literature, along with interviews with samnyasins (monks), brahmanas (priests), families of the deceased, and individuals living near cremation grounds.
With its mix of visual material, bibliographic references, and a glossary of non-English terms, the book caters to both general readers and specialists interested in understanding the philosophical and cultural aspects of death in India.
