Epic India Blogs

EPIC INDIA BLOGS

CHRONICLES OF KANJISHEIK is medical student and whizkid Tapas Sadasivan Nair's blog on everything from Gandhi to blog-bans, the quota controversy to literature. We don't know how our 'sheikh' in Pondicherry manages to find time to max all his exams and travel, read, take part in protests, and sound off on so many issues so intelligently. Maybe he's enlisted the help of other quantum selves!

A LEAP IN THE DARK showcases Canadian Richard "Gypsyman" Marcus's incisive, bold thinking about the current state of politics, society, media, and of course, his excellent reviews of books, movies, music, etc.

WARRIORS OF DANDAKA is fan-fiction set in the 'world' of my Ramayana series between the end of the events described in Demons of Chitrakut and the starting of Armies of Hanuman. Written by US-based whizkid Pushpak Karnick, this online serial is fast gaining a fan following of its own!

EPIC INDIA IN JAPAN is a tribute site by Yutaka Ohshima, translator of the Japanese edition of the Ramayana novels and has news, views, and information related to the series, my other writings, as well as other topics of "epic Indian" interest. But please note: It's in Japanese!

SRIMAD BHAGAVATAM is Bangalorean Saravana Kumar's translation of Ved Vyasa's other seminal epic, a labour of love and devotion that is a pleasure to read. In my opinion, it's one of the most heartfelt translations ever attempted.

HEXAD OF LIGHT is Chennai-based Krishna Ramkumar's esoteric and often brilliant take on aspects of Indian myth. You have to read it to know what's it like. Check it out.

BLOKES BLOGIN is to blogging what open-heart surgery is to a hospital residency: Bangalorean Blogger "Blokes" expresses everything with a passionate sincerity that's rare to find in the blogosphere.
