ABOUT THE ART
In Andhra Pradesh, the puppets, called tholu bommalata (“the dance of leather dolls”), are fashioned of translucent, coloured leather. These are projected on a small screen, like colour photographic transparencies. Animals, birds, gods, and demons dominate the screen. The puppeteer manipulates them from behind with two sticks. Strong lamps are arranged so that the size, position, and angle of the puppets change with the distance of the light. The puppeteers comprise of various entertainers who perform all night and usually reenact various stories from Hindu epics such as the Ramayana and Mahabharata.

WHAT WE LEARN
We create the Tulabharam episode in a size of 27" x 36"

This is the beautiful story of Shri Krishna and his two wives Satyabhama and Rukmini, which underlines the importance of devotion. Sage Narada as usual, has played a role into this as well.

Satyabhama belonged to a royal lineage and was very proud of her origins. Rukmini was very humble, though she was the incarnation of Goddess Lakshmi. Her devotion was pure to Shri Krishna.

This story is about humbling of Satyabhama's pride.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Sh. Siva Sindhe belongs to a traditional puppeteers family of Tholu Bomalatta from Nimalakunta village of Andhra Pradesh. His family has been into the making of the traditional leather shadow puppet and conducting puppet shows for generations

Truly non-toxic but a little rough and uneven
I’m very impressed with the packaging of this. When I first opened the box I was shocked that there was a plastic wrapping around the boards when they promised to be non toxic but then I saw the sticker that the wrapping was not plastic and I was very happy. The boards themselves are pretty nice and a good thickness but the only thing is I feel like the board is a little rough and parts of the board come up and are not smooth.

Not Durable…Splintered….
Had to chuck these. I loved them at first but they are not durable. Scratched themselves up right away and then the mid sized one started to splinter. I didn’t even have it for very long before I had to get rid of them. Long enough to not be able to return. I prefer the bamboo as far as wood goes, but switched to an antibacterial. It’s crazy because I had the same cutting boards for years and in the past month I’ve had to replace them 3 times now. I was so disappointed because there were such amazing reviews. Sadly that was not the case for me. I give it a 3 because they are absolutely beautiful…..you get points for being beautiful I suppose in this world. But not durable. At least not for me.

Perfect cutting board set of 3
Very nice cutting boards, and I especially love the peace of mind knowing there is not harsh chemicals used to make these. Thank you!

This is Mike Wittmer at his finest
Format: Paperback
If you are at all familiar with Mike Wittmer's books and devotionals, you know he has a sharp wit and an engaging style. This book delivers both in abundance. With clarity and conciseness, Mike walks through 40 well-known theological concepts popular among Americans. Although he writes from an Evangelical perspective, Mike brings his trademark honest critique to each topic, admitting his own biases while still highlighting the validity of other viewpoints. His explanations, critiques, and examples will make you laugh and think, and I truly believe this book would make a great basis for a Sunday school or other church education series.

Fortunate to buy this book
Format: Kindle
Fantastic book, packed with well written information and interspersed with humor. Well worth the price, I will now have to look for more of Wittmer's works, and hope he has more coming in the fashion of this one. This is the 3rd Urban Legends of the bible Ive read in the series and also the best.
