This book is a compilation of inspiring quotes from spiritual teachers of the East, coupled with images showcasing the incredible sacred art of Nepal. The photographs, captured by Sean Starr and Jennifer Moore Starr during their time in Nepal in 2019 and 2020, coincide with the production of the documentary "Art Is Love: Nepal," they were shooting on location with filmmakers Daniel Driensky and Sarah Reyes of Exploredinary.For over 30 years, Sean Starr's original artwork has been displayed in dozens of exhibitions at galleries and institutions in New York, San Francisco, Los Angeles, Dallas, Houston, Napa Valley, Philadelphia, Chicago, San Antonio and Ireland.Jennifer Moore Starr is a photographer and studio manager at Starr Studios. In the spring of 2019, I embarked on my inaugural journey to Nepal, having been invited by a photojournalist friend following the last-minute withdrawal of one of his fellow photographers. Eagerly seizing the opportunity, I found myself captivated by Nepal's allure the moment I touched down in Kathmandu. As an artist, I was enthralled by the ancient culture's profound reverence for the arts and how deeply intertwined the artwork was with their spiritual beliefs.After spending several weeks immersing myself in the rich tapestry of Nepal, I returned home with the aspiration to revisit and document the remarkable things I had encountered. A subsequent conversation with friends and filmmakers Daniel Driensky and Sarah Reyesof Exploredinary in Dallas resulted in an agreement to collaboratively return and produce a documentary highlighting the traditional artists of Nepal.Fate played its part, swiftly aligning the pieces, and in early 2020, My wife Jennifer, Daniel and Sarah found ourselves back in Nepal, filming our recently completed feature-length documentary titled "Art Is Love: Nepal." Throughout our travels, we documented the stories of artists and the sacred art of Nepal.Our journey took us through the bustling streets of Kathmandu, the ancient city of Bhaktapur, Pashupatinath Temple, the iconic Boudhanath and Swayambhunath Stupas, the lakeside city of Pokhara, and some of the remote villages of the Himalayas. We sincerely hope you enjoy this collection of photos, captured by Jennifer and me during breaks between filming sessions and interviews with other artists. It seemed only fitting to complement these images with some of our favorite quotes from Eastern teachers, some of whom undoubtedly inspired the very artists responsible for the masterpieces adorning this beautiful country.

"Networked Bollywood provides the first interdisciplinary analysis of the role of stars in the transformation of Hindi cinema into a global entertainment industry. The first Indian film was made in 1913. However, filmmaking was recognized as an industry almost a hundred years later though Indian films have been circulating globally since their inception. This book unearths this oft-elided history of Bollywood's globalization through multilingual, transnational research and discursive cultural analysis. It illustrates how, over the decades, a handful of primarily male megastars, as the heads of the industry's most prominent productions and corporations, combined overwhelming charismatic affect with unparalleled business influence. Through their 'star switching power', theorized here as a deeply gendered phenomenon and manifesting broader social inequalities, India's most prominent stars instigated new flows of cinema and industrial collaborations, structured distinctive business models, and influenced state policy and diplomatic exchange, thereby defining the future of Bollywood's globalization"--

There's no dearth of references to a sense of kinship beyond one's familyor tribe in ancient Indian texts. We know from anecdotes in the Ramayanaand Mahabharata, the Upanishads and epigraphic sources like Ashoka's 12thMajor Rock Edict, that our ancestors were no strangers to an expansiveunderstanding of fraternity. Therefore, although the earliest adoption offraternity as state motto happened in 18th-century France, the West cannotclaim to have taught fraternity to India. Even so, it took our freedom struggleand the writing of the Constitution for it to become an integral valuegoverning our lives.While the idea of fraternity was implicit in the Motilal Nehru ConstitutionalDraft of 1928 and the 1931 Karachi Resolution of the Indian NationalCongress, the National Movement's commitment to it was questioned byleaders like Dr Babasaheb Ambedkar because the Movement appeared toprioritize the anti-colonial struggle over social reform to eliminate casteinequality. Dr Ambedkar, who had suffered caste oppression, knew that therecouldn't be a democratic future if caste wasn't done away with. However, hisantagonism with Mahatma Gandhi, the pre-eminent leader of the NationalMovement, is often amplified. This monograph argues, instead, that not onlydid both hold each other in high regard, it was due to Ambedkar's steadfastopposition to caste that, through Gandhi, modern Indian society learnt to takeits first steps towards embodying fraternity, even as it fought the Raj.Rajmohan Gandhi, one of India's leading and most admired thinkers, moveseasily from ancient India to modern Europe to an intimate portrait of the epicface-off between Gandhi and Ambedkar which led to the Poona Pact of 1932.This engaging monograph should be read by everyone invested in upholdingthe constitutional norm of fraternity in our increasingly divided country.
