Table of Contents TABLE OF CONTENTS Assembled by the Gurdjieff Foundation of Illinois with permission from The Society for the Study of Myth and Tradition, Inc. INSTRUCTIONS BACKGROUND Four times a year, since 1976, Parabola Magazine has brought us essays, fiction, reviews, interviews and artwork from around the world. Each issue has focused on one topic or theme to be explored from a variety of perspectives. We believe that Parabola Magazine issues from 40 years ago continue to be highly relevant to today’s seekers of truth. Recognizing that the many treasures buried in Parabola Magazine were indeed buried, we offer this searchable electronic index of every issue published by the Society for the Study of Myth and Tradition, Inc. It is our intent to continually update this file as new issues are released. THE PRODUCT The Topical Index lists each issue of Parabola Magazine with the topical description (assigned by Parabola), date, and volume/issue number. The Tables of Content have been enhanced to include significant items that were not identified on the printed Table of Contents pages including many book reviews which are often fascinating essays. SPECIAL FEATURES 1. If you click on a topic name in the Topical Index you will be taken instantly to the corresponding Table of Contents page. Simply scroll up to return to the Topical Index. 2. At the top of each Table of Contents page, you may click this icon: In a few seconds, you will be taken to the page on Parabola’s website where, with a few clicks, you may buy a hard copy or digital version of that issue. 3. Using your browser’s “Find” feature, you can locate authors, titles, or any word or phrase throughout all of the Table of Contents pages. So, for example, if you entered Needleman, you will quickly receive a list of Table of Contents pages referencing Jacob Needleman including articles and book review from 1985, and another article from 2015. By clicking on any of the items on the list, you will go to the appropriate Table of Contents page. A. How to get to the “Find” feature depends on your operating system. You may need to click on a 3-dot or 3- parallel-line symbol in the upper right corner of your screen and then click “Find.” B. Experiment with your search criteria for the best results. For example, if you were to enter the word pain, you would find several instances of painting! Hitting your space bar after pain will eliminate some unwanted “hits.” Topical Index Topic Volume/ DATE Topic Volume/ DATE Number Number The Hero 1/1 Winter 1976 The Knight and the Hermit 12/1 Spring 1987 Magic 1/2 Spring 1976 Addiction 12/2 Summer 1987 Initiation 1/3 Summer 1976 Forgiveness 12/3 Fall 1987 Rites of Passage 1/4 Fall 1976 The Sense of Humor 12/4 Winter 1987 Death 2/1 Winter 1977 The Creative Response 13/1 Spring 1988 Creation 2/2 Spring 1977 Repetition and Renewal 13/2 Summer 1988 Cosmology 2/3 Summer 1977 Questions 13/3 Fall 1988 Relationships 2/4 Fall 1977 The Mountain 13/4 Winter 1988 Sacred Space 3/1 Spring 1978 Disciples and Discipline 14/1 Spring 1989 Sacrifice and 3/2 Summer 1978 Tradition and Transmission 14/2 Summer 1989 Transformation Inner Alchemy 3/3 Fall 1978 The Tree of Life 14/3 Fall 1989 Androgyny 3/4 Winter 1978 Triad 14/4 Winter 1989 The Trickster 4/1 Spring 1979 Time and Presence 15/1 Spring 1990 Sacred Dance 4/2 Summer 1979 Attention 15/2 Summer 1990 The Child 4/3 Fall 1979 Liberation 15/3 Fall 1990 Storytelling and 4/4 Winter 1979 Hospitality 15/4 Winter 1990 Education The Old Ones 5/1 Spring 1980 Money 16/1 Spring 1991 Music, Sound, Silence 5/2 Summer 1980 The Hunter 16/2 Summer 1991 Obstacles 5/3 Fall 1980 Craft 16/3 Fall 1991 Woman 5/4 Winter 1980 The Golden Mean 16/4 Winter 1991 Earth and Spirit 6/1 Spring 1981 Solitude and Community 17/1 Spring 1992 The Dream of Progress 6/2 Summer 1981 Labyrinth 17/2 Summer 1992 Mask & Metaphor 6/3 Fall 1981 The Oral Tradition 17/3 Fall 1992 Demons 6/4 Winter 1981 Power and Energy 17/4 Winter 1992 Sleep 7/1 Spring 1982 Healing 18/1 Spring 1993 Dreams and Seeing 7/2 Summer 1982 Place and Space 18/2 Summer 1993 Ceremonies 7/3 Fall 1982 Crossroads 18/3 Fall 1993 Holy War 7/4 Winter 1982 The City 18/4 Winter 1993 Guilt 8/1 Spring 1983 The Call 19/1 Spring 1994 Animals 8/2 Summer 1983 Twins 19/2 Summer 1994 Words of Power 8/3 Fall 1983 Clothing 19/3 Fall 1994 Sun and Moon 8/4 Winter 1983 Hidden Treasure 19/4 Winter 1994 Hierarchy 9/1 Spring 1984 Earth, Air, Fire, Water 20/1 Spring 1995 Theft 9/2 Summer 1984 The Stranger 20/2 Summer 1995 Pilgrimage 9/3 Fall 1984 Language and Meaning 20/3 Fall 1995 Food 9/4 Winter 1984 Eros 20/4 Winter 1995 Wholeness 10/1 Spring 1985 Prophets and Prophecy 21/1 Spring 1996 Exile 10/2 Summer 1985 The Soul 21/2 Summer 1996 The Body 10/3 Fall 1985 Peace 21/3 Fall 1996 The Seven Deadly Sins 10/4 Winter 1985 Play and Work 21/4 Winter 1996 The Witness 11/1 Spring 1986 Ways of Knowing 22/1 Spring 1997 Mirrors 11/2 Summer 1986 The Shadow 22/2 Summer 1997 Sadness 11/3 Fall 1986 Conscience and Consciousness 22/3 Fall 1997 Memory and Forgetting 11/4 Winter 1986 Miracles 22/4 Winter 1997 2.

The Englishman Isherwood, on the other hand, who had come to Berlin in 1929 principally because of the sexual freedom it offered him as a homosexual, remained an outsider in Germany,2 despite living in Berlin for over three years and enjoying a wide range of contacts with various social groups.' At first sight the authorial positions could hardly be more different.

    OUP UNCORRECTED PROOF – FIRSTPROOFS, Mon Dec 07 2015, NEWGEN 3 Vajrayāna Traditions in Nepal Todd Lewis and Naresh Man Bajracarya Introduction The existence of tantric traditions in the Kathmandu Valley dates back at least a thousand years and has been integral to the Hindu– Buddhist civi- lization of the Newars, its indigenous people, until the present day. This chapter introduces what is known about the history of the tantric Buddhist tradition there, then presents an analysis of its development in the pre- modern era during the Malla period (1200–1768 ce), and then charts changes under Shah rule (1769–2007). We then sketch Newar Vajrayāna Buddhism’s current characteristics, its leading tantric masters,1 and efforts in recent decades to revitalize it among Newar practitioners. This portrait,2 especially its history of Newar Buddhism, cannot yet be more than tentative in many places, since scholarship has not even adequately documented the textual and epigraphic sources, much less analyzed them systematically.3 The epigraphic record includes over a thousand inscrip- tions, the earliest dating back to 464 ce, tens of thousands of manuscripts, the earliest dating back to 998 ce, as well as the myriad cultural traditions related to them, from art and architecture, to music and ritual. The religious traditions still practiced by the Newars of the Kathmandu Valley represent a unique, continuing survival of Indic religions, including Mahāyāna- Vajrayāna forms of Buddhism (Lienhard 1984; Gellner 1992). Rivaling in historical importance the Sanskrit texts in Nepal’s libraries that informed the Western “discovery” of Buddhism in the nineteenth century (Hodgson 1868; Levi 1905– 1908; Locke 1980, 1985), Newar Vajrayāna acprof-9780199763689.indd 872C28B.1F1 Master Template has been finalized on 19- 02- 2015 12/7/2015 6:28:54 PM OUP UNCORRECTED PROOF – FIRSTPROOFS, Mon Dec 07 2015, NEWGEN 88 TanTric TradiTions in Transmission and TranslaTion tradition in the Kathmandu Valley preserves a rich legacy of vernacular texts, rituals, and institutions.
