Date: 3 December 2019 Student number: u12083802 __________________________ 2 Foreword I started my MTh and was unsure of a topic to cover. I knew that Hinduism was the religion I was interested in. Dr. Sukdaven suggested that I embark on the study of the concept of Maya. Although this concept provided a challenge for me and my faith, I wish to thank Dr. Sukdaven for giving me the opportunity to cover such a deep philosophical concept in Hinduism. This concept Maya is deeper than one expects and has broaden and enlightened my mind. Even though this was a difficult theme to cover it did however, give me a clearer understanding of how the world is seen in Hinduism. 3 List of Abbreviations AD Anno Domini BC Before Christ BCE Before Common Era BS Brahmasutra Upanishad BSB Brahmasutra Upanishad with commentary of Sankara BU Brhadaranyaka Upanishad with commentary of Sankara CE Common Era EW Emperical World GB Gitabhasya of Shankara GK Gaudapada Karikas Rg Rig Veda SBH Sribhasya of Ramanuja Svet.

  • SRI 1008 VIDYAMANYA TIRTHA of PALIMARU MATHA UDUPI ( D Prahladacharya)
    BRIEF INTRODUCTION of THE LIFE AND ACHIEVEMENTS OF (the Late) SRI 1008 VIDYAMANYA TIRTHA Of PALIMARU MATHA UDUPI ( D Prahladacharya) Since the age of Sri Jayatirtha, the illustrious grand disciple of Sri Madhva, nearly every generation had had the fortune of having in their midst several great saint-philosophers who had dedicated their entire life for the propagation of Sri Madhva-Shastra. Sri Rajendra Tirtha, Sri Vyasatirtha, Sri Vadirajatirtha, Sri Vijayendra Tirtha, Sri Vidyadhisha Tirtha, Sri Raghavendra Tirtha, Sri Satyanatha Tirtha, Sri Satyadhyana Tirtha are a few such names. These great saints not only composed the well known Dvaita Vedanta classics, which stand today as an impenetrable fortress protecting the Madhwa Siddhanta from the attacks by the other philosophical schools, but also created an indelible impression on the community by their exemplary way of life. In the first half of the last century Sri Satyadhyana Tirtha was such a legendary Madhwa Pithadhipati, while in the second half, Sri Vidyamanya Tirtha, who was his disciple, was. Born on the 27 th of July, 1913 to a pious couple Sri Kuppana Tantry and Smt. Radhamma in the village Ermalu of South Canara District of Karnataka Sri Vidyamanya Tirtha, (Narayana in his poorvashrama), had his initiation to upanayana samskara, in the holy presence of Sri Sudhindra Tirtha Swamiji of Sri Puttige Mutt, who had lived more than hundred years. Sri Kuppanna Tantry, who was held in high esteem for his knowledge in Dharma Shastras and Sampradaya , taught his son in home, all that a vatu should learn. Later, Narayana studied in Sri M.S.P.

Ltd, Ahmedabad Dedicated to • My Parents Shri Jaydevbhai Vyas & Shrimati Dakshaben Vyas Preface This work is an attempt to discuss a scientific perspective in International Relations Theory which exists since ages but never discussed at length. It is an interdisciplinary work to establish relationship between Indian Advait Philosophy and International Relations Theory. When I was writing my doctoral thesis, I was reading some works of Maharishi Ved Vyas and commentaries based on his work in Advait philosophy. Whatever, I read there, I felt it is something that has not been worked on in International Relations and there is a scope to write in interdisciplinary theory in International Relations. Above all, after reading the theories of International Relations I realized that I cannot relate my thoughts and actions with any of the existing perspectives and the extremes observed everywhere around. So it led me to write about this parity vision. I see its relevance in contemporary times as some of the actions and events that occur in the world can be viewed and analyzed with parity vision.

  • The Tulasi Devi Handbook
    8/3/2019 The Tulasi Devi Handbook The Tulasi Devi Handbook Guidelines and Instructions on the Importance, Care and Worship of the Tulasi Tree Compiled from various sources by Stephen Knapp (Sri Nandanandana dasa) Contents 1. Quotes From Srila Prabhupada 2. Prayers and Mantras for Tulasi 3. How to Offer Tulasi Devi Worship (Puja) 4. Tulasi Devi: The Importance of the Sacred Tree 5. The Marriage of Tulasi and the Significance of Shalagrama-shilas 6. How to Care for Tulasi 7. Caring for Tulasi Devi From Seedlings 8. Picture Pages Preface This consists mostly of the old Iskcon Tulasi Handbook (possibly going back to the early 1970s) that we used to have at the temples long ago. It was the first compilation of instructions that most temples had about Tulasi. I had collected a lot of these kinds of books and information, so I pulled my copy out, typed it up, along with doing some editing and rearrangement for ease of use, then added the additional research on who is Tulasi and some of her main pastimes from various Vedic texts. That is is how this edition came together. I’m not sure who the author or authors were of the original handbook, but many devotees are most grateful for what has been done. It is a very descriptive and instructive booklet on the ways to take care of Tulasi, and this will help preserve some of the early knowledge and information on growing Tulasi that we had from years ago. Additional information and experience may be available now, but there is nothing like reviewing the original ways we used to do things.
