Manus Jeva Dev Hoto / माणूस जेव्हा देव होतो  (Marathi, Paperback, Deore Sudhir Rajaram Dr)

Dr. Sudhir R. Deore is well-known as a committed researcher of languages - especially Ahirani - arts, literature, folk life and folk literature. Additionally, he has earned fame as an erudite writer-thinker, who, since childhood, has imbibed the social environment with an open, receptive mind, and has formed his firm philosophical foundation through his thorough study, reading, writing and research. Dr. Deore is not just a bookish, pedantic scholar, but since long, he has been a conscious and conscientious observer and commentator of social environments. He understands well that a biographer needs to analyze and explain the psyche of people through legends and mythology; and he does it well. I am sure that Dr. Deore's book will prove beneficial for the study of literature based on saints’ biographies. - Dr. Pradeep Karnik. ‘Manus Jeva Dev Hoto’ is a reference work authored with a view to honouring a Veergal. But that is not the sole purpose of the book. Through it, Dr. Deore makes an attempt to reach the roots of the Divine by way of the application of folk life, sentiment and faith. Crossing boundaries of time & space, the book aims at drawing inferences about religiosity, spirituality, metaphysics and folk life & culture. This reference book would prove to be a guiding beacon for the students exploring this field. This is the second edition of the book. - Notion Press, Chennai.
