In this context, research into the religious and worldview paradigms of Hinduism presented in its literary heritage as one of the sources is highly relevant, especially considering the fact that Hinduism is, in fact, an umbrella term denoting a vast array of faiths practiced by over 800 million people in the world, 96% of whom are Indian. The article analyzes the role of the Puranas in the Hindu tradition, provides an overview of the Puranic literature and its main specific features and summarizes the characteristics of the Vayu Purana as a monument of Puranic literature. The authors draw a conclusion that the Vayu Purana can be considered one of the

Dissertation Advisor: Parimal G. Patil Benjamin Luke Williams ABHINAVAGUPTA’S PORTRAIT OF GURU: REVELATION AND RELIGIOUS AUTHORITY IN KASHMIR ABSTRACT This dissertation aims to recover a model of religious authority that placed great importance upon individual gurus who were seen to be indispensable to the process of revelation. This person-centered style of religious authority is implicit in the teachings and identity of the scriptural sources of the Kulam!rga, a complex of traditions that developed out of more esoteric branches of tantric "aivism. For convenience sake, we name this model of religious authority a “Kaula idiom.” The Kaula idiom is contrasted with a highly influential notion of revelation as eternal and authorless, advanced by orthodox interpreters of the Veda, and other Indian traditions that invested the words of sages and seers with great authority.

  • In the Name of Krishna: the Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town
    In the Name of Krishna: The Cultural Landscape of a North Indian Pilgrimage Town A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Sugata Ray IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Frederick M. Asher, Advisor April 2012 © Sugata Ray 2012 Acknowledgements They say writing a dissertation is a lonely and arduous task. But, I am fortunate to have found friends, colleagues, and mentors who have inspired me to make this laborious task far from arduous. It was Frederick M. Asher, my advisor, who inspired me to turn to places where art historians do not usually venture. The temple city of Khajuraho is not just the exquisite 11th-century temples at the site. Rather, the 11th-century temples are part of a larger visuality that extends to contemporary civic monuments in the city center, Rick suggested in the first class that I took with him. I learnt to move across time and space. To understand modern Vrindavan, one would have to look at its Mughal past; to understand temple architecture, one would have to look for rebellions in the colonial archive. Catherine B. Asher gave me the gift of the Mughal world – a world that I only barely knew before I met her. Today, I speak of the Islamicate world of colonial Vrindavan. Cathy walked me through Mughal mosques, tombs, and gardens on many cold wintry days in Minneapolis and on a hot summer day in Sasaram, Bihar. The Islamicate Krishna in my dissertation thus came into being.

  • A CRITICAL STUDY of the ^ of UNMAADA ^ *M. G. Ramu, **B. S
    123 .A CRITICAL STUDY OF THE ^ OF UNMAADA ^ *M. G. Ramu, **B. S. Venkataram Ayurvedic Research Unit, A.I.I.M.H., Bangalore Attempts to study mind in its scientific perspective have been existing for ages. Yajurveda, one of the oldest literary records has tried to give the picture of mind as * Divine Light' and the ' Via Media' of perception, memory, etc.i Unmada has been, recorded in Atharva Veda with its stages and treatment for the first time.* The word has been used as UNMADA. Gradually towards Samhita period (800 B.C. to 600 B.C.) UNMADA seems to have become UNMAADA. In Taittariya Samhita it is said that Pishacha (Manohana) a kind of krimi, impairs mind and Gandharvas and Apsaxas cause unmaada in man ', *„ *a. In premier Ayurvedic classics like Charaka Samhita. Susfrrata Samhita and Astangahridaya, Unmada has been defined with different view points, 5 to 9. Out of these, Charaka's definition appears to be more appealing on account of being easily understandable. He Mates that Unmaada has to be understood as the unsettled condition of the Manas (mind), Buddhi (understanding), Samjna (consciousness), Gnana (perception), Smriti (memory), Bhakti (inclination), Sheela (character), Chesta (behaviour), and Achara (conduct). Considering various aspects of the aesease, Unmada has been classified by ancient Ayurvedic savants. Charaka records Unmaada as of five kinds at one place and two viz.j Nija and Agantu at the other in the chapter he has devoted for " Unmada Nidana " (pathology of unmada).io Shushruta and Vagbhata, the former being known as a contemporary of Agnivesha, the author of Charaka Samhita (500 to 300 B.C.) and the latter who flourished during 7 A.D., recognize unmada as of six types.u Thus we come across varities of opinion about the classification.

  • Bhagavata Purana
    Bhagavata Purana The Bh āgavata Pur āṇa (Devanagari : भागवतपुराण ; also Śrīmad Bh āgavata Mah ā Pur āṇa, Śrīmad Bh āgavatam or Bh āgavata ) is one of Hinduism 's eighteen great Puranas (Mahapuranas , great histories).[1][2] Composed in Sanskrit and available in almost all Indian languages,[3] it promotes bhakti (devotion) to Krishna [4][5][6] integrating themes from the Advaita (monism) philosophy of Adi Shankara .[5][7][8] The Bhagavata Purana , like other puranas, discusses a wide range of topics including cosmology, genealogy, geography, mythology, legend, music, dance, yoga and culture.[5][9] As it begins, the forces of evil have won a war between the benevolent devas (deities) and evil asuras (demons) and now rule the universe. Truth re-emerges as Krishna, (called " Hari " and " Vasudeva " in the text) – first makes peace with the demons, understands them and then creatively defeats them, bringing back hope, justice, freedom and good – a cyclic theme that appears in many legends.[10] The Bhagavata Purana is a revered text in Vaishnavism , a Hindu tradition that reveres Vishnu.[11] The text presents a form of religion ( dharma ) that competes with that of the Vedas , wherein bhakti ultimately leads to self-knowledge, liberation ( moksha ) and bliss.[12] However the Bhagavata Purana asserts that the inner nature and outer form of Krishna is identical to the Vedas and that this is what rescues the world from the forces of evil.[13] An oft-quoted verse is used by some Krishna sects to assert that the text itself is Krishna in literary

  • Narsinh Mehta - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Narsinh Mehta - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Narsinh Mehta(1414? – 1481?) Narsinh Mehta (Gujarati:?????? ?????)also known as Narsi Mehta or Narsi Bhagat was a poet-saint of Gujarat, India, and a member of the Nagar Brahmins community, notable as a bhakta, an exponent of Vaishnava poetry. He is especially revered in Gujarati literature, where he is acclaimed as its Adi Kavi (Sanskrit for "first among poets"). His bhajan, Vaishnav Jan To is Mahatma Gandhi's favorite and has become synonymous to him. <b> Biography </b> Narsinh Mehta was born in the ancient town of Talaja and then shifted to Jirndurg now known as Junagadh in the District of Saurashtra, in Vaishnava Brahmin community. He lost his mother and his father when he was 5 years old. He could not speak until the age of 8 and after his parents expired his care was taken by his grand mother Jaygauri. Narsinh married Manekbai probably in the year 1429. Narsinh Mehta and his wife stayed at his brother Bansidhar’s place in Junagadh. However, his cousin's wife (Sister-in-law or bhabhi) did not welcome Narsinh very well. She was an ill- tempered woman, always taunting and insulting Narsinh mehta for his worship (Bhakti). One day, when Narasinh mehta had enough of these taunts and insults, he left the house and went to a nearby forest in search of some peace, where he fasted and meditated for seven days by a secluded Shiva lingam until Shiva appeared before him in person.
