Sinossi

Hindu Time explores the rich tradition of the Hindu calendar, a system deeply intertwined with religious life, cultural practices, and ancient Indian thought. This book unveils how timekeeping in Hinduism extends beyond mere measurement, serving as a holistic framework that integrates astronomy, astrology (Jyotisha), mythology, and religious observances. One intriguing aspect discussed is the concept of vast cycles of creation and destruction (kalpas), reflecting a unique perspective on time's eternal nature. Also highlighted is the calendar's critical role in determining the timing of Hindu festivals and rituals, thus shaping communal worship and individual spiritual practices.

 
The book progresses from introducing the fundamental units of time, the concept of yugas, and the astronomical basis of the calendar, to examining the influence of planetary positions and the calendar's application in determining the dates of major Hindu festivals. What sets Hindu Time apart is its comprehensive approach, blending historical, astronomical, astrological, and religious perspectives to offer an accessible understanding of this complex system. By contextualizing the calendar’s origins within Vedic cosmology and ancient Indian thought, the book reveals its multifaceted significance, making it valuable for students of religion, history, South Asian studies, and anyone interested in Hindu culture.

    Yuri Bezmenov (1939 - January 5, 1993), was a Soviet journalist for RIA Novosti and a former KGB informant who defected to Canada. After being assigned to a station in India, Bezmenov eventually grew to love the people and the culture of India. At the same time, he began to resent the KGB-sanctioned repression of intellectuals who dissented from Moscow's policies and he decided to defect to the West. Bezmenov is best remembered for his anti-communist lectures and books published in the 1980s under the alias of Tomas David Schuman.
