    The Peacock Cult in Asia By P. T h a n k a p p a n N a ir Contents Introduction ( 1 ) Origin of the first Peacock (2) Grand Moghul of the Bird Kingdom (3) How did the Peacock get hundred eye-designs (4) Peacock meat~a table delicacy (5) Peacock in Sculptures & Numismatics (6) Peacock’s place in history (7) Peacock in Sanskrit literature (8) Peacock in Aesthetics & Fine Art (9) Peacock’s place in Indian Folklore (10) Peacock worship in India (11) Peacock worship in Persia & other lands Conclusion Introduction Doubts were entertained about India’s wisdom when Peacock was adopted as her National Bird. There is no difference of opinion among scholars that the original habitat of the peacock is India，or more pre­ cisely Southern India. We have the authority of the Bible* to show that the peacock was one of the Commodities5 that India exported to the Holy Land in ancient times. This splendid bird had reached Athens by 450 B.C. and had been kept in the island of Samos earlier still. The peacock bridged the cultural gap between the Aryans who were * I Kings 10:22 For the king had at sea a navy of Thar，-shish with the navy of Hiram: once in three years came the navy of Thar’-shish bringing gold, and silver，ivory, and apes，and peacocks. II Chronicles 9: 21 For the King’s ships went to Tarshish with the servants of Hu，-ram: every three years once came the ships of Tarshish bringing gold, and silver，ivory，and apes，and peacocks.

The Publication of Bhagavān Vedaḥ in 1970 Borayin Larios | orcid: 0000-0001-7237-9089 Institut für Südasien-, Tibet- und Buddhismuskunde, Universität Wien, Vienna, Austria [email protected] Abstract This article discusses the first Indian compilation of the four Vedic Saṃhitās into a printed book in the year 1971 entitled “Bhagavān Vedaḥ.” This endeavor was the life’s mission of an udāsīn ascetic called Guru Gaṅgeśvarānand Mahārāj (1881–1992) who in the year 1968 founded the “Gaṅgeśvar Caturved Sansthān” in Bombay and appointed one of his main disciples, Svāmī Ānand Bhāskarānand, to oversee the publication of the book. His main motivation was to have a physical representation of the Vedas for Hindus to be able to have the darśana (auspicious sight) of the Vedas and wor- ship them in book form. This contribution explores the institutions and individuals involved in the editorial work and its dissemination, and zooms into the processes that allowed for the transition from orality to print culture, and ultimately what it means when the Vedas are materialized into “the book of the Hindus.” Keywords Vedas – bibliolatry – materiality – modern Hinduism – darśana – holy book … “Hey Amritasya Putra—O sons of the Immortal.

  • Śaivism After the Śaiva
    religions Article Saivism´ after the Saiva´ Age: Continuities in the Scriptural Corpus of the Vıram¯ ahe´svaras¯ Elaine M. Fisher Religious Studies, Stanford University, Stanford, CA 94305, USA; [email protected] Abstract: This article makes the case that V¯ıra´saivismemerged in direct textual continuity with the tantric traditions of the Saiva´ Age. In academic practice up through the present day, the study of Saivism,´ through Sanskrit sources, and bhakti Hinduism, through the vernacular, are gener- ally treated as distinct disciplines and objects of study. As a result, V¯ıra´saivismhas yet to be systematically approached through a philological analysis of its precursors from earlier Saiva´ tra- ditions. With this aim in mind, I begin by documenting for the first time that a thirteenth-century Sanskrit work of what I have called the V¯ıramahe´svaratextual¯ corpus, the Somanathabh¯ a¯s.ya or V¯ıramahe´svar¯ ac¯ aras¯ aroddh¯ arabh¯ a¯s.ya, was most likely authored by Palkurik¯ e˘ Somanatha,¯ best known for his vernacular Telugu V¯ıra´saivaliterature. Second, I outline the indebtedness of the early Sanskrit and Telugu V¯ıramahe´svaracorpus¯ to a popular work of early lay Saivism,´ the Sivadharma´s´ astra¯ , with particular attention to the concepts of the jangama˙ and the is..talinga˙ . That the V¯ıramahe´svaras¯ ´ borrowed many of their formative concepts and practices directly from the Sivadharma´sastra¯ and other works of the Saiva´ Age, I argue, belies the common assumption that V¯ıra´saivismoriginated as Citation: Fisher, Elaine M.. 2021. a social and religious revolution.

  • Shaivism: Confusion of Identity
    Shaivism: Confusion of Identity Shivo Bhokta, Shiva Bhojya Shivo Karta, Shivah Karma Shivah Karanatmakah Shiva is the experiencer and the highest object of experience. Shiva is the goal of sadhana. There is nothing apart from Shiva. There is nothing other than Shiva. Whatever there is, is Shiva. There is nothing which is not Shiva. There is no place which is not Shiva. There is no time which is not Shiva. To be aware of this is to be aware of Shiva. — Shiva Dhun Mantra Shaivism is a very ancient path that is said to have existed even before the Vedas, and its followers claim independence from Vedic religious rules and regulations. While Shaivism has developed into a variety of schools, all of them view lord Shiva as the supreme reality. For them, Shiva is the lord of all manifestation and the supreme ruler of all gods. He is beyond the visible and the known, dwelling timelessly in the perfection of his unfathomable consciousness and yet lives in the totality of creation through the light of his countless souls. He is source of our spiritual light and the bestower of grace and emancipation. He is the lord of five powers: creation, preservation, dissolution, concealment (self-oblivion or ignorance), and revelation (salvation, self-recognition or enlightenment). It is difficult to give a unified interpretation of the philosophy of Shaivism because of its numerous schools and tendency toward high intellectualism. In the West, it is a relatively unknown path that has recently been revived and brought to the attention of Western seekers through a prominent scholar of Kashmir Shaivism, Swami Lakshmanjoo.

In fact there are numerous genuine texts from the Indian tradition that contain data on this subject: the problem is that such texts are often incorrectly or inaccurately quoted by some authors to support theories that are opposite to the teachings explicitly presented in those same original texts.
