Words fail me to express my sincere and grateful thanks to him. *** There are so many others who made it possible for me to continue my effort fulfilled, starting from my younger grandson who was just gifted to our family in May 2005 and with whom I used to spend most of my writing. The other grandson who is only 8 years and has great love and devotion for Bhagavan used to share his feelings with me whenever possible and thus indirectly became a part of the Supreme Splendours. I reciprocate his love with all my heart. My son, Tumuluru Kumar and my daughter- in- law Dr Satya Prabha with whom I stayed in Addis Ababa, Africa, gave great love in going through the manuscript, typing and taking print outs, formatting and designing up to pre- printing stage and I offer my heart (iv) (v) felt love to them... Like on previous occasions when I brought PRAYER out my other writings, my two daughters Dr. Gowri and D.S.S. Lakshmi and my husband Sri Tumuluru Krishna “I asked for Prosperity Murty gave yeoman loving service, labour for Love as I say, And God gave me brawn and brains to work in all respects and words fail to express my gratitude and I asked for Love love to them. And God gave me troubled people to help. I asked for Favours Last but not least I offer my respectful thanks to my brother- And God gave me opportunities to grab in-law Sri T.S.S. Anjaneyulu and Sri B. V. Satya Murty for I asked for Strength drawing and designing the ‘Universal Consciousness’ And God gave me difficulties to make me strong Likewise there are many who have contributed their love and I asked for Wisdom help, I can only offer my love to all those innumerable ones. And God gave me problems to solve I asked for Courage My Prayerful Pranams at the Lotus Feet of our Lord once And God gave me dangers to overcome again. I received nothing I wanted I got everything I needed”. Tumuluru Prabha Krishna Murty ‘If the blue mountains be the ink and 27TH June 2006 If the Ocean be the ink pot, If the biggest branch of heavenly tree be pen and If the earth be the writing leaf; And taking these, If the Goddess of Learning writes for Eternity, Even then, The limit of Thy Virtues will not be reached.’ (‘Asitagiri saman Syat Kajjalam Sindhupatra, Surataru carasakha lekhani Patrmurvi, Likhat yadi grihitwa Sarada sarvakalam, Tadapi tava gunamisa Param na Yati.’) *** (vi) (vii) PROLOGUE share my Love of the Lord whenever, wherever and whatsoever form possible. In 1974 I found God in Human Form. Prior to 1974, as the eldest in a family of seven children and with no other elder to Luckily, I found my God in flesh and blood in 1974, as look after the youngsters except my loving parents, I was like mentioned earlier. That year I saw the “Solidified Divine” in shadow to them through thick and thin, and learnt many human form, walking on two feet amidst us as Bhagavan Sri lessons of my life. My parents being very religious and God Sathya Sai Baba, whereas the seers and saints of the fearing used to do puja in the house, observe and celebrate previous Yugas (Ages) did strenuous Penance (Tapas) to most of the festivals at home and visit the important temples have a glimpse of God. Later on, I heard Bhagavan Himself like Sri Venugopala Swamy, Kunti Madhava Swamy and declare, “I am not a man of flesh and blood; I am not the heap Kukkuteswara (Iswara) Swamy in the vicinity of our house. I of delusion ; I am the Origin and End.” So let us, believe His used to enjoy the Supreme Splendour through those religious words, realise the Truth and experience the Supreme and His ritualistic observances and idol worship. Splendour(s). Thus my parents were and had been my ideal gurus singing I am one of the fortunate few to have been drawn into the glories of the Deities they believed and creating that holy Baba’s fold to see, hear and experience some of the rare and pious atmosphere for the children. During Sankranthi, Sivaratri unique facets of the Divine. With that enthusiasm and , Rama Navami, Krishna Janmastami and Navaratri festivals happiness – Ananda (Bliss), I venture to attempt this work – when Saptaha (7 days festivities)

  • Bab Vii Perlunya Memahami Perbedaan Prosedur Epistemologi Teologi Setiap Agama
    BAB VII PERLUNYA MEMAHAMI PERBEDAAN PROSEDUR EPISTEMOLOGI TEOLOGI SETIAP AGAMA 7.1 Prosedur Epistemologi Hindu 7.1.1 Kritik Terhadap Epistemologi Teologi “Theologi” dalam pengertian umum yang dapat diterima oleh semua kalangan, adalah pengetahuan tentang Tuhan. Namun dalam pengertian yang lain (pengertian yang tersebung), teologi diasumsikan sebagai ilmu pengetahuan tentang Tuhan perspektif Kristen, perspektif gereja atau perspektif Injil. Oleh sebab itu setiap pembicaraan mengenai teologi mau tidak mau harus merujuk pemikiran gereja. Paradigma seperti itu memang diciptakan dan diupayakan serta dipopulerkan oleh gereja. Salah satu contoh; dalam penelitian teologi, pendekatan yang digunakan adalah hermeunitik, suatu pendekatan yang berasal dari pendekatan gereja atau Kristen. Contoh lain lagi, jika berbicara tentang konsep monoteisme, maka pembenarannya hanya dapat diterima jika Tuhan dipandang dalam perspektif “personal God” yang bertempat tinggal di langit atau “di sorga”. Dalam teologi Kristen, pada awalnya Tuhan dipandang tidak memiliki personifikasi, namun setelah Yesus dikemudian hari dianggap Mesias, maka konstruksi teologi monoteisme Kristen lalu berubah menjadi trinitas. Struktur teologi Kristen sesungguhnya sangat labil oleh sebab itu satu-satunya cara ia menggunakan strategi klaim dan apologi. Tentu apapun bentuk struktur teologi Kristen itu merupakan hak dan tanggung jawab dari para teolog Kristen. Namun para teolog juga seharusnya mengakui bahwa terdapat banyak kerancuan dan kekacauan konsep yang terdapat dalam teologi Kristen yang tidak dapat dipahami dengan akal. Hal itu akhirnya hanya dapat diterima sebagai dogma yang dicari-cari padanannya dalam logika bernalar. Walaupun penilaian ini merupakan pendapat yang datangnya dari luar kekristenan, namun penilaian ini juga adalah syah. Memang seharusnya konsep agama dan konsep pemahaman agama harus terus berkembang. Oleh sebab itu ke-Kristenan juga tidak boleh mencela terhadap perkembangan konsep ataupun pemahaman di luar gereja atau Kristen.

  • An Assessment of Jotirao Phule's Approach to Hindu Social Reform
    CONFRONTING CASTE AND BRAHMANISM: AN ASSESSMENT OF JOTIRAO PHULE’S APPROACH TO HINDU SOCIAL REFORM S.K. Chahal Abstract This paper examines the approach of Jotirao Govindrao Phule (1827- 1890), the foremost social reformer and thinker as well as one of the nation-builders of modern India, with regard to the issue of Hindu social reform in India. A radical social reformer of 19th-century Maharashtra, Phule visualized Hindu society free from all social inequalities based on caste, class and gender. He showed extreme concern for the suppressed and the marginalized sections of Hindu society, and started a crusade against the orthodoxy and the “slavery” it imposed upon the downtrodden sections of Hindu community for centuries. The paper is based on the proposition that Phule’s framework of Hindu social reform was radical and his movement was a sort of Hindu reformation movement. His approach to Hindu social reform appears to be altogether different from that of the “revivalist” reformers of 19th century who represented the so-called mainstream tradition of Hindu social reform in modern India. Phule came out with his own idea of the religion, i.e. Sarvajanik Satya Dharma (Universal Religion of Truth). In order to materialize his concept of “true religion”, he and his colleagues founded in 1873 Satyashodhak Samaj (society of truth seekers) in Pune. The set of principles the Samaj drew up shortly after its formation included belief in equality of all human beings, restoration of whose natural/human rights was one of its aims. Phule was more of a social revolutionary than a social reformer.

The process of change, in order to qualify as 'deve- lopment', must be assessed in terms of some pre-existing or external 27 ends. Thus to discuss development we have to discuss values. This has been called the 'value-relative' nature of the concept of development.

Besides, a culture or a tradition is like a living organism, an on-going and Sen thing, never a static or frozen piece. It seems also to be 'self-conscious': it considers, decides and rejects. Hence a rational criticism can very well be internalto it. For a change to count as development, we need some sort of evaluation of values. Many substantive issues arises here. As development can be a self- conscious choice should we let ourselves be blown off our feet by the stormy wind of technological development?
