Sports have always been an integral part of Indian culture. For centuries, Indians have enjoyed various traditional sports and games as a way to stay active, build relationships, and foster a sense of camaraderie. My goal for this book, The Indian Sports: An Insight into the History and Significance of Indian Traditional Sports, is to explore the history and significance of Indian traditional sports and the many ways in which they have shaped Indian culture and society.
This book is intended to serve as an introduction to the rich history and culture of Indian sports for readers who are new to the subject. It explores the evolution of Indian sports from its traditional roots to its modern-day forms. The book covers various topics, including the development of different sports and games, the influence of religion on Indian sports, and the impact of the Indian Olympic team. It also examines the economics of Indian sports and the legacy of Indian sports in modern-day India.
Dr. Jagadeesh Pillai
Dr. Jagadeesh Pillai is a renowned four-time Guinness World Record holder with a PhD in Vedic Science. Born in Varanasi, India, he is beloved by the people of the city for his selfless service to those in need. A multi-talented individual, Dr. Pillai has achieved many notable accomplishments. He is a regular researcher and passionate reader of all Indian Foundation scriptures such as the Vedas, Upanishads, Puranas, and Bhagavadgita, and is always seeking to uncover the logical essence of these texts to apply to real life.
Dr. Pillai is also an accomplished author, having written thousands of books. He spends the majority of his day reading, learning, and teaching the wisdom he has acquired through his more than 20 years of study on various subjects. Additionally, he is a great composer and singer, often performing Sanskrit bhajans. He has composed and sung the Ramcharit Manas, Bhagavadgita, and thousands of other Sanskrit mantras. His masterpiece is the Hanuman Chalisa in 108 distinct compositions. This remarkable work of art is a testament to his creativity and skill, showcasing his ability to craft a timeless classic in a variety of styles.
In 1998, Dr. Pillai was offered a job at Banaras Hindu University, but he left the position after only two months to pursue greater goals in life. He believed that in order to study Indian scriptures and engage in other creative endeavours, he needed to retire from the daily grind of working solely for money at a young age. He started an export business from scratch, using the knowledge he had gained from a previous job in the industry. His intelligence and unique approach to business led to great success in a short period of time, earning him more in just a decade and a half than he would have in a lifetime working in a government job. Upon the passing of Dr. APJ Abdul Kalam, Dr. Pillai decided to leave the business and dedicate himself to reading, studying, researching, and experimenting. During his tenure in the export business, Dr. Pillai traveled to over 16 countries, gaining valuable insight and experiencing the world and life in detail.
Dr. Pillai is also an efficient Tarot Card Reader, Astro, Vastu, and Gem Consultant, as well as a Pranic Healer. He has won numerous awards, including the Mahatma Gandhi Vishwa Shanti Puraskar, Kashi Ratna, and Motivational Person of the Year 2017 from both India and abroad.
