I did not make use of another student’s previous work and I submit this as my own words. 4. I did not allow anyone to copy this work with the intention of presenting it as their own work. I, John Derrick Whitehead hereby declare that the following Dissertation is my own work and that I duly recognized and listed all sources for this study. 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.

  • Srimath Vedanta Desika and His Land of Glory
    SRIMATH VEDANTA DESIKA AND HIS LAND OF GLORY [C.R. DESIKAN, B. Sc., Tiruvaheendirapuram] On this 701st birth - year of Srimad Vedanta Desika, the greatest of gurus after Sri Bhagavad Ramanuja, the entire religious world of vaishnavism, has a right to rejoice and celebrate. Why? The cause is not unknown. For any doubt in sri bashya or any scripture text. We can find the answers in one of the several treatises of this great acharya. During the marriage ritual, the kanya dana mantra is repeated thus: "for the benefit of seven generations before, seven generations after me and me included, I am performing this gift." the life of an individual as given in Vedas is hundred years. On that basis one hundred years will be equal to one generation. Thus we have seen that this year heralds the eighth generation of the great preceptor. [Seven generations are over now.] Born at kancheepuram, this acharya learnt all his religious teachings from his uncle "Appullar". In his "sankalpa suryodaya", this acharya speaks of himself as "one who has recited the Sri Bhashya of Sri Ramanuja thirty times over." This piece of information is significant. His ability to master all the subjects taught so early in life, shows him as a prodigy. Having learnt, he wanted to acquire grace and spiritual powers. For this, he undertook a penance at the top of the small hill at Thiruvaheendrapuram. After some period of penance, the acharya was blessed with a "darsan" Sri Garuda Bhagawan, who in turn, have upadesam of Sri Hayagriva mantra and also presented him with an idol of this manifestation of god.

  • Principles of the New Evangelization: Analysis and Directions
    PRINCIPLES OF THE NEW EVANGELIZATION: ANALYSIS AND DIRECTIONS By Richard M. Rymarz, B.Sc (Hons), M.Sc, M.Ed.Studies, Grad Dip Ed, Ed.D, M.A (Theol). A thesis submitted as full requirement for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Australian Catholic University. School of Theology Faculty of Philosophy and Theology Australian Catholic University Date of Submission: 25th of May 2010 University Research Services Office Melbourne Campus Locked Bag 4115 Fitzroy VIC 3065 1 STATEMENT OF AUTHORSHIP AND SOURCES This thesis contains no material published elsewhere or extracted in whole or in part from a thesis by which I have qualified for or been awarded another degree or diploma. No part of this thesis has been submitted towards the award of any other degree or diploma in any other tertiary institution. No other person’s work has been used without due acknowledgement in the main text of the thesis. Richard M. Rymarz 2 ABSTRACT This thesis, after appropriate analysis, proposes a number of principles, which guide both an understanding of the new evangelization as formulated by Pope John Paul II and how the new evangelization can be applied. The key insight of the new evangelization is that growing numbers of people, especially in Western countries such as Australia, whilst retaining what can be termed a “loose” form of Christian affiliation, can no longer be described as having a living sense of the Gospel. This makes these people distinct from the classical focus of missionary activity, namely, those who have never heard the Gospel proclaimed. Pope John Paul II’s exposition of the new evangelization arose from his understanding of key conciliar and post-conciliar documents.

Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Theology and Religious Studies Theology and Religious Studies School of Critical Studies College of Arts University of Glasgow July 2019 1 Abstract The thesis evolved out of an experience of working for, or being involved with, Catholic agencies devoted to implementing humanitarian and long-term development programmes over three decades (‘Roman Catholic Faith-based Organisations’, RCFBOs). In the encyclical Populorum Progressio (1967), Pope Paul VI called for an ‘authentic development’ which would result in a shift for the poor from living in inhuman conditions to more human ones within their culture.
