  • Compassion for Living Creatures in Indian Law Courts
    religions Article Compassion for Living Creatures in Indian Law Courts Gilles Tarabout Director of Research (Emeritus), National Centre for Scientific Research, 75016 Paris, France; [email protected] Received: 27 March 2019; Accepted: 10 June 2019; Published: 14 June 2019 Abstract: The Constitution of India through an amendment of 1976 prescribes a Fundamental Duty ‘to have compassion for living creatures’. The use of this notion in actual legal practice, gathered from various judgments, provides a glimpse of the current debates in India that address the relationships between humans and animals. Judgments explicitly mentioning ‘compassion’ cover diverse issues, concerning stray dogs, trespassing cattle, birds in cages, bull races, cart-horses, animal sacrifice, etc. They often juxtapose a discourse on compassion as an emotional and moral attitude, and a discourse about legal rights, essentially the right not to suffer unnecessary pain at the hands of humans (according to formulae that bear the imprint of British utilitarianism). In these judgments, various religious founding figures such as the Buddha, Mahavira, etc., are paid due tribute, perhaps not so much in reference to their religion, but rather as historical icons—on the same footing as Mahatma Gandhi—of an idealized intrinsic Indian compassion. Keywords: India; animal welfare; compassion; Buddhism; court cases In 1976, the 42nd Amendment to the Constitution of India introduced a new section detailing various Fundamental Duties1 that citizens were to observe. One of these duties is ‘to protect and improve the natural environment including forests, lakes, rivers and wild life, and to have compassion for living creatures’ (Constitution of India, Part IV-A, Art.

    INDIAN LITERATURE Stuart Blackburn, Ph.D. Study Guide Description This course covers the literature of south Asia, from early Vedic Ages, and through classical time, and the rise of various empires. It also explores the rise of different religions and convergences of them, and then the transition from colonial control to independence. Students will analyze primary texts covering the genres of poetry, drama, fiction and non-fiction, and will discuss them from different critical stances. They will demonstrate their knowledge and understanding of the works by responding to questions focusing on the works, movements, authors, themes, and motifs. In addition, they will discuss the historical, social, cultural, or biographical contexts of the works‘ production. This course is intended for students who already possess a bachelor‘s and, ideally, a master‘s degree, and who would like to develop interdisciplinary perspectives that integrate with their prior knowledge and experience. About the Professor This course was prepared by Stuart Blackburn, Ph.D., research associate / research fellow, University of London, School of Oriental and African Studies, Department of Languages and Cultures of South Asia. Contents Pre-classical Classical Early Post –classical Late Post-classical Early Modern 19th Century Early 20th Century Late 20th Century © 2017 by Humanities Institute PRE-CLASSICAL PERIOD POETRY Overview Pre-classical Indian literature contains two types of writing: poetry and commentary (which resembles the essay). These ancient texts (dating from about 1200 to 400 BCE) were composed, transmitted and recited in Sanskrit by Brahmin priests. It is poetry, however, that dominates the corpus of Vedic literature and is considered the more sacred style of expression.

  • The Emergence of Modern Hinduism
    1 Introduction Rethinking Religious Change in Nineteenth-Century South Asia For millennia, one of the most consistent characteristics of Hindu traditions has been variation. Scholarly work on contemporary Hinduism and its premodern antecedents ably captures this complexity, paying attention to a wide spectrum of ideologies, practices, and positions of authority. Studies of religion in ancient India stress doctrinal variation in the period, when ideas about personhood, liberation, the efficacy of ritual, and deities were all contested in a variety of texts and con- texts. Scholarship on contemporary Hinduism grapples with a vast array of rituals, styles of leadership, institutions, cultural settings, and social formations. However, when one turns to the crucial period of the nineteenth century, this complexity fades, with scholars overwhelmingly focusing their attention on leaders and move- ments that can be considered under the rubric “reform Hinduism.” The result has been an attenuated nineteenth-century historiography of Hinduism and a unilin- eal account of the emergence of modern Hinduism. Narratives about the emergence of modern Hinduism in the nineteenth century are consistent in their presumptions, form, and content. Important aspects of these narratives are familiar to students who have read introductory texts on Hinduism, and to scholars who write and teach those texts. At the risk of present- ing a caricature of these narratives, here are their most basic characteristics. The historical backdrop includes discussions of colonialism, Christian missions, and long- standing Hindu traditions. The cast of characters is largely the same in every account, beginning with Rammohan Roy and the Brahmo Samaj, moving on to Dayananda Saraswati and the Arya Samaj, and ending with Swami Vivekananda’s “muscular” Hinduism.

  • A Novel Approach to Harness Maximum Power from Solar PV Panel 10-16 G
    EDITORIAL Dear Members, Fellow Professionals, Friends and Well wishers, The Profession of ‘Electrical Installation Engineer’ revolves around Technology, Efficiency and Safety. Safety and Reliability are of utmost Concern with equal concern for Technology and Efficiency as they direct us to Better Controls and Conservation. 11th of May is marked as “National Technology Day” and let us remember that the Technological Inventions and Improvements have, in fact, been the cause for all our Galloping Developments over the past 150 years, but ;Challenges’ continue to remain. One of the important challenges is the “Storage of Electricity” and the solutions available at present are Storage Batteries of Lead Acid and other types with their limitations of capacities and weights and Life etc. Continuous researches are taking place all over the World and even as recently as April ’13, some land mark successes have been achieved. Announcement of successful design of low-cost, long-life battery that could enable solar and wind energy to become major suppliers to the electrical grid has come as a step forward. Currently the electrical grid cannot tolerate large and sudden power fluctuations caused by wide swings in sunlight and wind. As solar and wind’s combined contributions to an electrical grid approach 20 percent, energy storage systems must be available to smooth out the peaks and valleys of this “intermittent” power — storing excess energy and discharging when input drops. For solar and wind power to be used in a significant way, we need a battery made of economical materials that are easy to scale and still efficient, and it is believed that the new battery may be the best yet designed to regulate the natural fluctuations of these alternative energies.

  • Universalism, Dissent, and Canon in Tamil Śaivism, Ca. 1675-1994
    BEYOND THE WARRING SECTS: UNIVERSALISM, DISSENT, AND CANON IN TAMIL ŚAIVISM, CA. 1675-1994 by Eric Steinschneider A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department for the Study of Religion University of Toronto © Copyright by Eric Steinscheider 2016 Beyond the Warring Sects: Universalism, Dissent, and Canon in Tamil Śaivism, ca. 1675-1994 Eric Steinschneider Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department for the Study of Religion University of Toronto 2016 Abstract Scholarship on the formation of modern Hindu universalism in colonial South Asia has tended to focus on the Western-gazing and nationalist discourses of acculturated elites. Less attention, however, has been paid to comparable developments within the regionally situated vernacular religious traditions. The present dissertation addresses this issue by considering how several distinctly vernacular Śaiva traditions in Tamil-speaking Southern India transformed through the impact of the colonial encounter. At the center of this transformation, which produced “Tamil Śaivism” as a monolithic Tamil religion, was a shift in the way in which these sectarian traditions articulated and contested specific interpretations of Śaiva theology and sacred textuality. Chapter One contextualizes the thesis’ arguments by focusing on the internally diverse character of early-modern Tamil Śaiva intellectual culture, and more especially on the phenomenon of pan-sectarianism in two contemporary eclectic Tamil Vīraśaiva treatises. The next three chapters explore how such pan-sectarian claims were placed under enormous pressure in the nineteenth century. Chapter Two examines a low-caste commentary on a classic of Tamil Advaita Vedānta that attempts to critique the orthodox religious establishment and reinscribe Śaivism as a monism.

  • The Emergence of Modern Hinduism
    2 Giving to the Poor Ramalinga’s Transformation of Hindu Charity Gifts of food to the poor in India are commonplace today, often proceeding under the auspices of organizations that identify themselves in a general way as Hindu.1 In South India, groups that carry on Ramalinga’s legacy consider the distribution of food to the poor to be central to their public mission. These efforts appear to be nothing out of the ordinary in contemporary India, a fact that conceals the novelty of Ramalinga’s project to feed the poor in his own time. Ramalinga’s out- reach to the hungry poor, in acts of ritual giving that disregarded the caste purity of its recipients, was an important instance of modern innovation. I consider it to be modern because it departed from past practices; responded to contemporary challenges, in this case widespread hunger; sought to transform social and ritual practices; and presaged future developments in Hinduism. It is not that Hindu institutions did not make food gifts prior to the nineteenth century. The distribution of food by temples, monasteries, and other religious institutions has a long history in South Asia. Inscriptional and textual evidence indicates that gifts of food to specific groups—pilgrims, ascetics, eminent people, caste groups, sectarian groups, et cetera—have been central to ritual transactions in South Asia for at least a millennium. This food-gifting enhances the status of the receiver, and at the same time it enables temples to reestablish, consolidate, or extend social, economic, and political networks with specific groups of people. The giving of food in South Asia thus supports social, political, and ritual agendas.

  • The Modernity of Yoga Powers in Colonial India
    6 The Modernity of Yoga Powers in Colonial India If Ramalinga’s 1867 verses emphasized his place in a lineage of Shaiva bhakti poet- saints, poems published after his death led his followers and others to include him among the antinomian Tamil siddhas. The publication of the sixthTirumu ṟai in 1885, more than a decade after his death, was to significantly reconfigure his lit- erary corpus and his Shaiva legacy. These verses were explicitly critical of cor- nerstones of established Shaivism, such as ritual practices, caste hierarchies, and textual elitism. The critical spirit of these poems, along with Ramalinga’s claim to wield supernatural powers, contributed to his reputation as siddha, a poet who juxtaposed social critiques with miraculous claims. In these poems, Ramalinga was not seeking Shaiva respectability and, indeed, many aspects of their message is hardly recognizable as Shaiva. In this chapter I focus on these poems, and on this Ramalinga—Ramalinga the siddha. It is as siddha that Ramalinga’s status as a modern religious leader seems to be most ambiguous. In the poems of the sixth Tirumuṟai, Ramalinga ridicules the Vedas and Agamas; calls for the abolishing of caste; and promotes a commu- nity that is open to all, regardless of caste or class. He also speaks openly of his acquisition of supernatural powers, and he promises these powers and eternal life to anyone who joins him. If his egalitarianism appears to align with dominant conceptions of modernity, his promotion of the miraculous is contrary to those rationalizing processes that are central to those dominant conceptions.
