Good bodily and mental health is a condition of well-being. We may keep our bodies in good health by embarking on a quest to explore the deepest corners of our minds. The practical and scientific approaches for comprehending the relationship between the mind and body are the main emphasis of the study. Through their writings, Deepak Chopra and Swami Vivekananda emphasize the vitality of the fountain known as consciousness as a prelude to awareness, focus, and purpose - all of which are subsequently incorporated into medical procedures like radiation, chemotherapy, and surgery. Both the writers’ literary works highlight and discuss ancient Indian life sciences like Yoga and Ayurveda as well as Western Medicine. Through the field of Medical Humanities, the intersection of Literature, Philosophy, and Medical Science, this research will engage significant elements required for the purpose. Thus, the research delves into both the physiological and psychological facets of preserving bodily health.

Radhakrishnan, as a visionary educationist in his writings, has been a chief votary of the ideal of Gyanam -Vigyanam sahitam, meaning wisdom and the sciences go together. This paper investigates the thoughts of S. Radhakrishnan on how literature and art give a second birth in the spirit through wisdom. He holds that great works of literature and art give a spiritual birth regarded as a second birth in Indian culture. Once born in the vision of the spirit, Buddhi, that is, intelligence, works on the light of spirit, spiritual value or truth, stabilizing the mind, a zone of thoughts and feelings. A stable mind thus becomes divine by spiritual insight and vision. Literary compositions and arts born out of this state lend a person in Shanti tranquillity, a clear and pure mind capable of spiritual vision. Thus, writers and artists create the minds of the people and the nation.

The paper is a critical exploration of the fluidity of becoming through the character of Robin in Claudia Morgado Escanilla’s short film No Bikini1 (2007). The paper further investigates the role of water in the dynamic configurations of the paradigms of gender expressions and highlights Robin’s relationship with water in their process of ‘becoming.’ An extensive focus on the stylistic construction of Robin’s character and the space of the swimming pool is analysed in rendering further possibilities of extending one’s self beyond the realms of the heteronormative world. Hence, this paper essays at understanding the positionality of children amidst the larger queer expressions predominantly constitutive of adult lives, and how children negotiate gender roles and a child’s casual manner of queering heteronormative structures, are further studied.

Mother Forest: The Unfinished Story of C.K Janu (2003) is an autobiography of C.K Janu, a tribal rights activist from Kerala. The paper examines how Janu narrates the essence of the tribal culture and its shared sense of mutuality with the environment. Describing the enriched experiences of the tribal society, achieved through ecological practices, Janu focuses on the fact that the tribal society maintains an inherent relationship with the forest. The indigenous philosophy of life and its impact on the sustenance of forest terrains, is highlighted in the narrative. The paper also examines the politics of power while analyzing Janu’s role as an activist for tribal land rights. The insensitivity of the system towards tribal culture and tribal land rights is critiqued against the backdrop of contemporary and contentious socio-political scenario.

Nigerian literature has been strewed with much political activism and ecological degradation. It has brought to the fore the connivance of oil companies, government agencies and a few members of the local communities in devouring the sacred land of Nigeria. The fictional literature of the Niger Delta takes into account the socio-cultural and political factors that revolve around the management of environmental problems in Nigeria. Rapid industrialization and excessive oil mining leave devastating ecological imprints on the flora, fauna and the landscape of the Delta. The fundamental issues of capitalism, globalisation, and exploitation of natural resources that cause the obliteration of Nigeria’s ecosystem are the themes of numerous literatures seeping out of the Niger Delta. Helon Habila’s Oil on Water works in the creative space to divert attention towards real-life issues that threaten the ecological sustenance of Niger Delta. The present paper analyses the novel by raising questions about the unethical practices being executed in the name of development. While being socio-ecologically intertwined, the novel also provides a postcolonial discourse on the corruption of moral order that plagues the fabric of Nigerian society.

The paper attempts to explore the women characters of Amish Tripathi in his Shiva Trilogy and Ram Chandra Series with a post-feminist perspective. In the recent trend of mythological fiction, women characters are given the roles of protagonists for voicing their emotions and decisions. From their shadowed existence to their new avatar of prominence and strength they have become role models for the young generation. Tripathi has subverted the characterization of women with extraordinary virtues. His Sita is the pride of Malayputras who confer on her the coveted title of ‘Vishnu’ for making her accountable for the welfare of the people by destroying evil. He very carefully associates masculine qualities with women to prove their wisdom and power. The paper focuses on Tripathi’s defiance of patriarchal society by presenting a world of women who possess masculine qualities along with utmost femininity.

Artificially created human beings are speculated to grapple with psychological struggles, including identity crisis, existential angst, societal discrimination, and complicated family dynamics resulting from their unorthodox genealogy, which is portrayed in posthuman narratives that feature genetically diversified society that integrates artificially created human beings with sexually reproduced individuals. Apart from cloning humans for procreation, the concept of cloning a historical figure who could make tremendous contributions to the world has intrigued the proponents of cloning. In a hypothetical space where cloning achieves rampant societal acceptance, addressing the moral, ethical, and legal rights of the clones becomes paramount to preserving the sanctity of human life. This article conducts a bioethical analysis of the possible psychological repercussions of human cloning that culminate into complexities in identity formation, individuation and family dynamics among human clones in Mildred Ames's Anna to the Infinite Power.

Ecological concerns demand recognition at this point of the Anthropocene epoch. There is a grave threat that European imperialism has caused what Rob Nixon calls ‘slow-violence’ to the environment. Kai Cheng Thom’s, Fierce Femmes and Notorious Liars: A Dangerous Trans Girl’s Confabulous Memoir (2016) is a work that intermingles elements of magical realism, ecocriticism, trans literature and postcolonialism. Using Postcolonial Ecocriticism as a critical lens, this paper aims to uncover the link between colonization and the ecological crises. The use of magical realism as a literary technique is analyzed to highlight the ways in which this tool helps transgress rigid binaries. The paper attempts to point out the impact of colonization in erasing cultures, communities and biodiversity in order to find a better way forward.

Long-standing taboos and conventions are a feature of Indian civilization, and they are closely related to education. Their relationship is quite complicated and has a "chicken or the egg" nature. These two allow people to express themselves. The taboos and rituals expose the people’s indigenous religious faith and vast unheard cultural heritage. The practice of these in the society plays a kind of educative purpose to nurture the newly sprung young minds and thus these taboos and conventions reshape as well as remold the society. These are prevalent in India's Northeastern tribal society. This tribal populated land is most diverse, the cultural cauldron of India. Within Northeast India, Naga life is fully submerged in the sea of taboos that includes taboo relating to birth, death, agriculture, marriage, war etc. Each and every activity of them is bound by taboo. In a nutshell, taboo acts as an authority to determine a person's course in life. It even defines their social and cultural life. The understanding of the taboos of the Naga world is the key to unlock the treasure of the Nagas’ knowledge reservoir. The researcher through the present article will try to highlight the everyday life of the Naga tribe and in addition will focus on the educative purpose of these in the society. The present paper is solely based on the Naga novel, The Sky is My Father.

In recent times, robots have become increasingly human like both in their behaviour and appearance. Undoubtedly, such technological developments are essentially useful when it comes to preserving and improving the quality of life either in the fields of healthcare or education. But significant body of studies also demonstrates that humans frequently have a negative sense of eeriness, danger, and menace when they are around robots. This research paper will analyse the short story, "I, Robot" by Cory Doctorow through the prism of posthumanism and look at the problem of state or governmental monopolisation of information technology while acting as a deep state by subjugating the common masses through policing. The study further examines the negative and positive aspect of Isaac Asimov's three laws of robots and the function that human consciousness plays in acceptance of robots that do not adhere to the three laws.
