About This Item
MP3 Audio CD. ?Hitopadesha? is a combined two Sanskrit words, ?Hita? meaning advantage or abundance, and ?Upadesha? meaning guidance. As the word invokes, The Hitopadesha is a set of stories that provides the best guidance.Hitopadesa was believed to be scribed down by Narayan Pandit and is a free medical care of the Vishnu Sarman's Panchatantra during the 3rd century BC which it appears to be in structure. In Hitopadesha, Vishnu Sarman is denoted as a Sage who goes through to offer the best guidance to the sons of Sudarsana, the king of Pataliputra, by tales within tales incorporating animals that talk. The chronicling of Hitopadesha is open to doubt as no other writing by Narayan Pandit is certain. The first record of Hitopadesha was from 1373; it might be of East Indian inception through the Pala Empire from 8th to 12th centuries.Sir Edwin Arnold KCIE CSI was a British poet and journalist, who is utterly famous for his work The Light of Asia.He became a journalist of the Daily Telegraph, a publication with which he remained to be associated as editor for over 40 years, and of which he soon became editor-in-chief. It was he who, on the side of the owners of the Daily Telegraph in partnership with the New York Herald, prepared the trip of H.M. Stanley to Africa to explore the channel of the Congo River, and Stanley specified after him a very large hill to the north-east of Albert Edward Nyanza.Edwin should also be attributed with the first thought of a big highway crossing the whole Africa, and he first coined the remark "Cape to Cairo railway" at a later date made known by Cecil Rhodes.It was, as a poet that he was most popular to his fellow writers. The duty as a writer which he had before him was the translation in English poetry of the existence and theory of the East.
