  • 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.

Secondly, we present data from ethnographic research conducted with South American devotees on pilgrimage to the ceremonial center ISCKON in Mayapur, West Bengal, during the year 1996, for a resumption of those initial considerations. The article seeks to demonstrate that the ritual injunction characteristic of Hindu sects, only makes sense from the individual experience of each devotee. Keywords: religion, Hinduism, New Age, Hare Krishna, ritual process Resumo Este artigo trata de revisitar o conceito consagrado de Victor Turner Estrutura – Communitas , tendo, como ponto de partida, uma análise de seus estudos de caso do Leste da Índia , em particular, entre os Gaudiya Vaishnavas – adoradores de Radha e Krishna, seguidores de Chaitanya Mahaprabhu.

Rosenthal: What Makes Religion THE DENISON JOURNAL OF RELIGION What “Makes” a Religion?: Interactions of Orthodoxy and Orthopraxy in Hinduism Eva Rosenthal Abstract This paper explores the complexities of the following question: In being Hindu, in what ways does one “practice” and in what ways does one “believe?” To what extent are ancient texts considered an un-debatable “source” for faith in divine presence? Gaining an understanding of what these texts are and how exactly they relate to both ritual and belief (because, as we will come to find, both ritual and belief are present in every facet of Hindu worship; what we are looking at is their interaction with one another and which seems to be of more importance in each given circumstance) will be instrumental to exploration of the “bigger question.” Those who have grown up within any given religious tradition often grapple with the question of what makes them a “good” Christian, Muslim, Jew, or what- ever their religion might be.

    CHAPTER THREE DHARMA Having discussed the intellectual and textual background to general conceptual area denoted by Zpad and related terms in chapter two, this chapter explores the other half of our key term, dharma, one of the more complicated concepts in the history of Indian ideas. The notion of dharma was deeply implicated in the intellectual struggles of the post-vedic to early classical period in ancient India, a period which sees the composition of the epics, the decline of the rauta sacrifice, the rise of the heterodox religions of Buddhism, Jainism and j- vikism, the beginnings of the various bhakti traditions, and the transi- tion from ‘Brhmaõism’ to something closer to what we understand today as ‘Hinduism’. Perhaps most intriguingly, it also sees the begin- ning and rapid growth of the dharma literature, an enormously sig- nificant event in the history of brhmaõic scholasticism. This chapter investigates the history of the word dharma in order to gauge the meaning and significance of the term through its develop- ment into one of the most important concepts in the brhmaõic and Hindu traditions. This analysis provides, firstly, a context in which to explain Yudhiùñhira’s conflict over dharma, especially as it manifests in the opening chapters of the P. This conflict, which is explored in chapter four, forms the narrative frame of the DhP. Secondly, it pro- vides a context in which to explain two related matters: the signifi- cance of the term dharma in the compound paddharma, and the sig- nificance behind the collecting together of a group of texts under the rubric ‘paddharmaparvan’.

  • A Comparative Study Between Yoga and Indian Buddhism
    《禪與人類文明研究》第三期（2018） International Journal for the Study of Chan Buddhism and Human Civilization Issue 3 (2018), 107–123 A Comparative Study Between Yoga and Indian Buddhism Li Jianxin Abstract There is an intimate relationship between the concepts of samadhi and dhyana in both traditions that demonstrates a parallelism, if not an identity, between the two systems. The foundation for this assertion is a range of common terminology and common descriptions of meditative states seen as the foundation of meditation practice in both traditions. Most notable in this context is the relationship between the samprajnata samadhi states of Classical Yoga and the system of four Buddhist dhyana states (Pali jhana). This is further complicated by the attempt to reconcile this comparison with the development of the Buddhist the arupya-dhyanas, or the series of “formless meditations,” found in Indian Buddhist explications of meditation. This issue becomes even more relevant as we turn toward the conception of nirodha found in both the context of Classical Yoga and in the Buddhist systems, where the relationship between yoga and soteriology becomes an important issue. In particular, we will examine notions of nirodhasamapatti found in Buddhism and the relationship of this state to the identification in Yoga of cittavrttinirodha with kaivalya. Keywords: Yoga, Indian Buddhism, samadhi, dhyanas Li Jianxin is Professor of Institute of World Religions of Chinese Academy of Social Sciences. 108 Li Jianxin I. Introduction This paper centers on the comparative research between the Patanjali’s Classical Yoga and the early Buddhism. More specifically, the focus of this study is on the structural comparison between Samadhis in the Classical Yoga and Dhyanas in the early Buddhism.
