VARṆA VIDYĀ

Books by Sinu Joseph

Did women in ancient Bhārat recite the Veda-s, perform agnihotra and wear the yajñopavīta? Who were Ṛṣika-s, Brahmavādini-s and Yoginī’s, and how did they attain that state? Why are the rules of religious practices similar for women and the śūdra varṇa? Can women and the śūdra varṇa officiate as temple arcaka-s, and how would this impact them and the temple?

Varṇa Vidyā provides answers to all those who wish to know the science beh

ऋतु विद्या मासिक धर्म से जुड़े सांस्कृतिक प्रथाओं के पीछे के विज्ञान का विवरण देता है। यह पुस्तक मासिक धर्म से संबंधित कई भारतीय महिलाओं द्वारा पूछे गए प्रश्नों के उत्तर देने का प्रयास करती है, जैसे कि, मासिक धर्म के समय कुछ खाद्य प्रतिबंध, शारीरिक परिश्रम न करना, दूसरों को छूने पर प्रतिबंध, खाना पकाने से परहेज, मंदिरों में न जाना, इत्यादि के कारण। यह पुस्तक भारत के प्राचीन विज्ञानों और स्वदेशी ज्ञान प्रणालियों में इन प्रथाओं की उत्पत्ति को दर्शाते हुए, किस प्रकार ये प्रथाएं मासिक धर्म सम्बन्धी अस्वस्थथाओं को रोकने का काम करते है, इन विषयों की व्याख्या करती है।

मासिक धर्म की प्रथाओं को समझने के प्रयास में, लेखिका ने एक दशक से अधिक समय तक भारत भर में यात्रा की और विभिन्न स्वदेशी ज्ञान प्रणालियों, जैसे कि षट्-दर्शन, आयुर्वेद, तंत्र, चक्र, योग, आगम शास्त्र, ज्योतिष शास्त्र और इनमें से कई उप-ग्रंथों का अध्ययन किया। फलस्वरूप, यह पुस्तक केवल सांस्कृतिक प्रथाओं का वर्णन करने से परे जाती है और इन प्रथाओं की उत्पत्ति के पीछे वैज्ञानिक और तार्किक तर्क को समझाने में विस्तृत विश्लेषण देता है।

मासिक धर्म के पीछे के विज्ञान की सही समझ, जैसा कि इस पुस्तक में दिया गया है, महिलाओं को मासिक धर्म की कठिनाइयों को रोकने में मदद करेगा, मासिक धर्म के प्रति सकारात्मक दृष्टिकोण विकसित करेगा और उन्हें प्राकृतिक चक्रों के साथ तालमेल में रहना सिखाएगा।

‘ऋतु’, यह मासिक धर्म का उल्लेख करने के लिए एक संस्कृत शब्द है, और ‘विद्या’ का अर्थ है ज्ञान। ऋतु विद्या, विभिन्न प्राचीन भारतीय ज्ञान प्रणालियों को एक साथ लाने का प्रयास है जो मासिक धर्म के विज्ञान के बारे में जानकारी प्रदान करती है, और आज भी प्रासंगिक है।

The book Ṛtu Vidyā emerged in search of answers to questions asked by adolescent girls and women in India during the author’s interactions with them as part of Menstrual Health workshops, conducted over a span of a decade across rural India. In an attempt to decode menstrual practices, the author undertook a journey across India and studied various indigenous knowledge systems such as Ṣaḍ-Darśana, Āyurved, Tantra, Cakra, Yōg, Āgama Śāstra, Jyotiṣa Śāstra, and several sub-texts from these categories. As a result, the book goes beyond just describing cultural practices and takes a deep dive into explaining the scientific and logical reasoning behind the origin of these practices.

This book is for all Indian women who have unanswered questions pertaining to menstrual practices, for menstrual researchers who will find a treasure trove of potential areas for research pertaining to menstrual health, for sportswomen to discover the ancient techniques that worked in sync with women’s periods and not against it, and also for the feminist who assumes that cultural practices around menstruation are a taboo that needs to be done away with.

The correct understanding of the science behind menstrual practices, as given in this book, will help women prevent menstrual difficulties, develop a positive attitude toward menstruation, and learn to work in sync with nature’s cycles.

Ṛtu (pronounced as ruthu) is one of the terms for menstruation in Sanskrit. Vidyā means knowledge. Ṛtu Vidyā is the author’s attempt to bring together various indigenous knowledge systems that provide information about the science of menstruation, which is relevant even to this day.
