About the Book
Ahimsa: Unraveling the Mysteries of the Harappan Civilization
In 1924, John Marshall’s groundbreaking discovery revealed the Indus (Harappan) civilization—a Bronze Age society as ancient as Mesopotamia and as sophisticated as Egypt. But how much of its legacy continues today?
In Ahimsa, Devdutt Pattanaik explores the unanswered questions surrounding this enigmatic civilization. Did Harappan beliefs shape later Vedic and Tantric traditions? Were their monastic ideals precursors to Buddhism and Jainism? Could their pictorial script have functioned like modern-day emojis?
Through a unique blend of mythology, archaeology, and illustration, Pattanaik examines why the Harappans left behind images of rivalry but not war or romance, and why their great cities vanished while villages endured. A century after their discovery, this book uncovers how the Harappans’ influence still lingers in our cultural memory today.
