Om. Peace! Peace! Peace! Katha Upanishad Part One Chapter I 1 Vajasravasa, desiring rewards, performed the Visvajit sacrifice, in which he gave away all his property. He had a son named Nachiketa. 2—3 When the gifts were being distributed, faith entered into the heart of Nachiketa, who was still a boy. He said to himself: Joyless, surely, are the worlds to which he goes who gives away cows no longer able to drink, to eat, to give milk, or to calve. 4 He said to his father: Father! To whom will you give me? He said this a second and a third time. Then his father replied: Unto death I will give you. 5 Among many I am the first; or among many I am the middlemost. But certainly I am never the last. What purpose of the King of Death will my father serve today by thus giving me away to him? 6 Nachiketa said: Look back and see how it was with those who came before us and observe how it is with those who are now with us.

  • The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa
    The Mahabharata of Krishna-Dwaipayana Vyasa Translated into English Prose from the Original Sanskrit Text. By Kisari Mohan Ganguli [1883-1896] TRANSLATOR'S PREFACE The object of a translator should ever be to hold the mirror upto his author. That being so, his chief duty is to represent so far as practicable the manner in which his author's ideas have been expressed, retaining if possible at the sacrifice of idiom and taste all the peculiarities of his author's imagery and of language as well. In regard to translations from the Sanskrit, nothing is easier than to dish up Hindu ideas, so as to make them agreeable to English taste. But the endeavour of the present translator has been to give in the following pages as literal a rendering as possible of the great work of Vyasa. To the purely English reader there is much in the following pages that will strike as ridiculous. Those unacquainted with any language but their own are generally very exclusive in matters of taste. Having no knowledge of models other than what they meet with in their own tongue, the standard they have formed of purity and taste in composition must necessarily be a narrow one. The translator, however, would ill-discharge his duty, if for the sake of avoiding ridicule, he sacrificed fidelity to the original. He must represent his author as he is, not as he should be to please the narrow taste of those entirely unacquainted with him. Mr. Pickford, in the preface to his English translation of the Mahavira Charita, ably defends a close adherence to the original even at the sacrifice of idiom and taste against the claims of what has been called 'Free Translation,' which means dressing the author in an outlandish garb to please those to whom he is introduced.

  • Defending Sufism, Defining Islam: Asserting Islamic Identity in India
    DEFENDING SUFISM, DEFINING ISLAM: ASSERTING ISLAMIC IDENTITY IN INDIA Rachana Rao Umashankar A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Anthropology. Chapel Hill 2012 Approved by: Dr. James L. Peacock Dr. Carl W. Ernst Dr. Margaret J. Wiener Dr. Lauren G. Leve Dr. Lorraine V. Aragon Dr. Katherine Pratt Ewing © 2012 Rachana Rao Umashankar ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT RACHANA RAO UMASHANKAR: Defending Sufism, Defining Islam: Asserting Islamic identity in India (Under the direction of Dr. James L. Peacock and Dr. Lauren G. Leve) Based on thirteen months of intensive fieldwork at two primary sites in India, this dissertation describes how adherents of shrine-based Sufism assert their identity as Indian Muslims in the contexts of public debates over religion and belonging in India, and of reformist critiques of their Islamic beliefs and practices. Faced with opposition to their mode of Islam from reformist Muslim groups, and the challenges to their sense of national identity as members of a religious minority in India, I argue that adherents of shrine-based Sufism claim the sacred space of the Sufi shrine as a venue where both the core values of Islam and of India are given form and reproduced. For these adherents, contemporary shrine-based Sufism is a dynamic and creative force that manifests essential aspects of Islam that are also fundamental Indian values, and which are critical to the health of the nation today. The dissertation reveals that contested identities and internal religious debates can only be understood and interpreted within the broader framework of national and global debates over Islam and over the place of Islam in the Indian polity that shape them.

  • Who Were the Shudras ? ______
    WHO WERE THE SHUDRAS ? __________________________________________________ ____________ Inscribed to the Memory of MAHATMA JOTIBA FULE (1827—1890) The Greatest Shudra of Modern India who made the lower classes of Hindus conscious of their slavery to the higher classes and who preached the gospel that for India social democracy was more vital than independence from foreign rule. WHO WERE THE SHUDRAS? How they came to be the Fourth Varna in the Indo-Aryan Society By B. R. Ambedkar __________________________________________________ ____________ CONTENTS Preface PART I 1. Chapter I - The Riddle of the Shudras 2. Chapter II - The Brahmanic Theory of the Origin of the Shudras 3. Chapter III - The Brahmanic Theory of the Status of the Shudras 4. Chapter IV - Shudras Versus Aryans 5. Chapter V - Aryans Against Aryans 6. Chapter VI - Shudras And Dasas PART II 7. Chapter VII - The Shudras were Kshatriyas 8. Chapter VIII - The Number of Varnas, Three or Four? 9. Chapter IX - Brahmins Versus Shudras 10. Chapter X - The Degradation of the Shudras 11. Chapter XI - The Story of Reconciliation 12. Chapter XII - The Theory in the Crucible APPENDICES PREFACE In the present stage of the literature on the subject, a book on the Shudras cannot be regarded as a superfluity. Nor can it be said to deal with a trivial problem. The general proposition that the social organization of the Indo-Aryans was based on the theory of Chaturvarnya and that Chaturvarnya means division of society into four classes—Brahmins (priests), Kshatriyas (soldiers),Vaishyas (traders) and Shudras (menials) does not convey any idea of the real nature of the problem of the Shudras nor of its magnitude.

  • The Age of Patanjali No
    Adyar Pamphlets The Age of Patanjali No. 57 The Age of Patanjali by N. Bhashyacharya Published in 1915 Theosophical Publishing House, Adyar, Chennai [Madras] India The Theosophist Office, Adyar, Madras. India [Page 1] IT is well known that Patanjali was the author of the Mahãbhãshya, the great commentary on Pãnini's grammar; and the author of the Yoga Sûtras is also called by that name. Some scholars are in doubt as to the identity of these two authors, and several Orientalists [ Such as Bohtlingk, Max Müller, Weber and Goldstüker] fix the date of the Mahãbhãshya, each from his own standpoint, and varying from 250 B. C. to 60 after Christ. The object of this paper is therefore to enquire into: — (a) the probable date of Patanjali, the author of the Mahãbhãshya, and (b) the supposed identity of the author of the Mahãbhãshya with that of the Yoga Sûtras. The name Patanjali is not of infrequent occurrence in Sanskrit literature. In Brihadãrãnyakõpanishad [5th Adhyãya, 3rd and 7th Brahmanas, or page 163 of the Madras Edition of 108 Upanishads] a Patanjala of Kapigõtra is mentioned: in Pãnini's Ganapãta [ 6th Adhyãya, under Vãrtika of Sûtra, I, i, 64: also II, iv, 69. Throughout the essay quotations like I, i, 64, refer to the Adhyãya, the Pãda and the number of the Sûtra – but never to Ânhikas — of the Mahãbbhãshya or the Ashtãdhyãyi of Pãnini, as the case may be] the names Patanjali and Patanjala occur: [Page 2] and the same name (Patanjali) is also found in Siddhãnta Kaumudi [page 8, Nirnaya Sãgara’s Edition (Bombay)] under the Vãrtika of Vararuchi, (also called Kãtyãyana).

  • Rishi Angirasa and His Contribution to Indian Literature
    Vol. 26 Veda -Vidyā July -December 2015 ISSN-2230-8962 Rishi Angirasa and his contribution to Indian Literature - Aditya Anguras It is interesting to note that the rsi's ( rishi's) of the Veda are brahmavit (knower's of Brahman). They are known as mantra-seers or mantra-drashtarah. What they see is within their own consciousness. They have been able to cognize the veda within the akshara ( from a= not + ksi = to destroy or perish) or the Absolute; others discuss this as avyakta (some write avakyartha - from a = not and vak =spoken) or the unmanifest, pure awareness, pure consciousness. What is of interest to me, is the names of the rishi's and the significance there of… just as a black smith, perhaps named Jim, came to be known as Jim Smith, like that the actions or qualities of person is then given to that person in name. Same with the rishi's we have been most fortunate to read. If I may let me offer a few names I find delightful and ask you to consider the rishi's, muni's, swami's you have read, and offer their names and root forms or origin of their names [if you choose to participate]. One of my favorites - Vishwamitra, the seer of gayatri in the Rk Ved ( Rig Veda) is from Vis or to enter or pervade, Visva some say is the SELF in the individual form, and others say Visva means universe + mitra or friend. Combined we have the friend that pervades all, friend of the universe. Valmilki - the author of the Ramayana, is from 'Valmika' meaning an ant- hill.

From my early boyhood I was quite acquainted with Baul philosophy and had a frequent in-depth discussion on Baul and Lalon‟s esoteric philosophy with my uncle Md. Chand Ali who encouraged me and his encourage seeded more inclination inside me to Lalon and his philosophy. From that inclination I started to learn about Lalon and finally decided to do something on Lalon Shah. So my first gratitude is to pledge to my uncle Md. Chand Ali. Besides this, persons to whom I must pay my debt are our family guru Rawsan Ali Khondaker (Tota Khondaker), Baul Guru Fakir Nahir, Aroj Ali Boyati, Saidur Rahman Bayati, Purna Das Baul (Inadia), Sanat Kumar Baul (India), Sanatan Das Baul (India).
