It also administers the donors' funds efficiently passing on every rupee of the donation to the scholar. BREAD Society has adopted its present methodology to identify the bright underprivileged students in 2003-04. Our experience over the past five years has made us refine our systems to ensure that we reach out to the most deserving students even in the most remote areas of the state. Our latest initiative in this regard is to try to get the BREAD Poster displayed in the Notice Boards of all the 1450 government and government aided institutions of higher education in Andhra Pradesh by mailing A-4 size colour posters to all the Principals. The abundant human resource wealth lying dormant, mostly in the remote rural areas of the countryside, can be unearthed to create a real knowledge based society at a nominal cost. BREAD Society spends an estimated average amount of Rs.10,000 on each scholar spread over a period of three years. On completion of their education and on securing employment, BREAD scholars' families experience qualitative improvement in their lives since they get out of the poverty spiral. What we are doing is a miniscule of what needs to be done. Our aim is to cover all those with distinction marks for which we need much larger volume of funds. Incidentally, this model can be replicated in any other state of the country. Some of the ways in which you can help us in this task are listed below: 1. Guide eligible students to apply for BREAD Scholarships. 2. Join BREAD Society as a Life Member or a Volunteer, participate in our activities and spread the good word around. 3. Inform friends, relatives and associates interested in education / charity. 4. Sponsor scholar(s) by sending in your donation. 5. If you are already doing work in the field of education, we can, perhaps, explore possibilities to work together.

As a biologist, I have been acutely aware that the distribution of talent in this four-fifth of our deprived population is no different from that in the privileged one-fifth. A proof is that even from this highly unprivileged group we have students doing extremely well in the high school examination – and I mean “extremely well" from the standards of the privileged one-fifth. The BREAD Society has set up a system to identify such young persons and support their higher education. The credibility of BREAD is demonstrated by the fact that, earlier this year, a single donor gave BREAD well over Rs.1 crore to support its activities. I believe that every responsible citizen must recognize the above naked truth and work towards ensuring that every child in the country receives the same high quality education up to class XII, as is the case in all civilized countries of the world. This can only happen in our country if we de-commercialaise school education, and adopt a common school system. Till then, we all, individually and collectively, need to support, morally and financially, organizations such as BREAD. The record of BREAD, as would be evident from the contents of this review for 2007-2008, should justify your placing trust in it. May I share another point of concern? As it turns out, in the world of tomorrow, academic accomplishments alone will not be enough for one to make a mark. One would also need life skills. BREAD is working hard also towards setting up systems that would provide the necessary life skills to its scholars. We need your suggestions and support also in this regard.

Introduction: The year 2007-08 has been a landmark year for BREAD Society. The Society has all along been soliciting donations in an indirect manner by distributing literature of its activities among known circles of friends and associates and by circulating the E-Newsletter besides requesting the regular donors/sponsors to send in their annual donations and to spread the good word among their associates and friends. One such initiative by a donor in inviting the attention of an associate to the activities of the Society has led the noble and unassuming couple to make a massive donation of Rs.1.25 crore through a single cheque. The Society had just then completed the award of nearly a thousand new and renewal scholarships on the basis of the norms prescribed by the Governing Body, as per details given below. 2. Selection Norms for Scholars: BREAD Scholars were selected in the first round in October/November based on the following eligibility criteria. ❖Education up to SSC in a government or fully aided high school. ❖Present education in a government or fully aided college. ❖To have cleared all qualifying tests in the current year in the first attempt. ❖For Intermediate Scholarship: Minimum 85 % marks in SSC. ❖For B.Sc. Scholarship: (a) Minimum 85% marks in SSC & Intermediate or (b) not less than 85% marks in Intermediate, if the course was pursued in government or fully aided junior college. ❖For B.A/B.Com Scholarship: Minimum 85% marks in SSC and 80% marks with Arts group or 85% marks with Science group in Intermediate. ❖For Polytechnic Scholarship: (a) CEEP Rank within 3000 or a Rank beyond 3000 with the same CET score as that of 3000th Rank or (b) CEEP Rank within 4000 or a Rank beyond 4000 with the same CET score as that of 4000th Rank, but securing 90% marks in SSC. 4 earc es h, E R d ic u s c a a t B i o n A BREAD n d y t D e e i v c BREAD REVIEW 2007-08 e o l S o t p m n e ❖For D.Ed.

These Sivalingas are formed out of one single Sivalinga. As per the legend, this five Sivalingas were one which was owned by the Rakshasa King Tarakasura. None could win over him due to the power of this Sivalinga. In a war between deities and Tarakasura, Kumara Swamy and Tarakasura were face to face. Kumara Swamy used his Sakthi aayudha to kíll Taraka. By the power of Sakti aayudha the body of Taraka was torn into pieces. But to the astonishment of Lord Kumara Swamy all the pieces reunited to give rise to Taraka. Kumara Swamy repeatedly broke the body into pieces and it was re-unified again and again. This confused Lord Kumara Swamy and was in an embarrassed state then Lord Sriman-Narayana appeared before him and said “Kumara! Don’t get depressed, without breaking the Shiva lingham worn by the asura you can’t kíll him” you should first break the Shiva lingam into pieces, then only you can kíll Taraka Lord Vishnu also said that after breaking, the shiva lingha it will try to unite. To prevent the Linga from uniting, all the pieces should be fixed in the place where they are fallen by worshiping them and erecting temples on them. By taking the word of Lord Vishnu, Lord Kumara Swamy used his Aagneasthra (weapon of fire) to break the Shiva lingha worn by Taraka, Once the Shiva lingha broke into five pieces and was trying to unite by making Omkara nada (Chanting Om).
  • Lord Shiva in Varanasi Visual Processes and the Representation

    Lord Shiva in Varanasi Visual Processes and the Representation

    OWE WIKSTRÖM Darsan (to See) Lord Shiva in Varanasi Visual Processes and the Representation of God by Seven Ricksha-Drivers Introduction In spite of its effort to be transculturally relevant, the psychology of relig- ion is quite ethno- or rather Western-centric. This becomes very clear when one tries to "translate" Indian folk religiosity into concepts taken from mainline theories; i.e. social, cognitive or psychoanalytical psychology of religion. Not only do the norms and values differ, but the very ontological assumptions underlying the categories in which the researcher understand differs fundamentally from the internal Hindu anthropological and epis- temiological apriori. For example, their words of the psyche include contex- tuality, from time to space, to ethics to groups. The subtle interrelatedness of the divine, spiritual and the mundane is obvious (Geertz 1973). It in- cludes the flows and exchanges of substances within and between persons with minimal outer bondaries. The psychological makeup of persons in societies so civilizationally dif- ferent as India is embedded in fundamentally distinct principles of these cultures and the social patterns and child rearing that these principles shape (Marsella et al 1985). Therefore it is clear that a western scholar and an Indian devotee are quite different, not only simply that they see things differently, coming from varied cultures, but that the very inner emotional- cognitive makeup is culturally constructed in different ways (Roland 1989). Of course this will "disturb" the interaction between interviewer and in- terviewee, the scholar and the pious man. In order to understand the psy- chological dynamics in folk religiosity, I think that the researcher has to re- examine and be aware of the way he uses the theoretical models in cross- cultural psychological hermeneutics.

  • Is the Gaudiya Vaishnava Sampradaya Connected to the Madhva Line?

    Is the Gaudiya Vaishnava Sampradaya Connected to the Madhva Line?

    Is the Gaudiya Vaishnava sampradaya connected to the Madhva line? Is the Gaudiya Vaishnava sampradaya connected to the Madhva line? – Jagadananda Das – The relationship of the Madhva-sampradaya to the Gaudiya Vaishnavas is one that has been sensitive for more than 200 years. Not only did it rear its head in the time of Baladeva Vidyabhushan, when the legitimacy of the Gaudiyas was challenged in Jaipur, but repeatedly since then. Bhaktivinoda Thakur wrote in his 1892 work Mahaprabhura siksha that those who reject this connection are “the greatest enemies of Sri Krishna Chaitanya’s family of followers.” In subsequent years, nearly every scholar of Bengal Vaishnavism has cast his doubts on this connection including S. K. De, Surendranath Dasgupta, Sundarananda Vidyavinoda, Friedhelm Hardy and others. The degree to which these various authors reject this connection is different. According to Gaudiya tradition, Madhavendra Puri appeared in the 14th century. He was a guru of the Brahma or Madhva-sampradaya, one of the four (Brahma, Sri, Rudra and Sanaka) legitimate Vaishnava lineages of the Kali Yuga. Madhavendra’s disciple Isvara Puri took Sri Krishna Chaitanya as his disciple. The followers of Sri Chaitanya are thus members of the Madhva line. The authoritative sources for this identification with the Madhva lineage are principally four: Kavi Karnapura’s Gaura-ganoddesa-dipika (1576), the writings of Gopala Guru Goswami from around the same time, Baladeva’s Prameya-ratnavali from the late 18th century, and anothe late 18th century work, Narahari’s

    Sri Nisargadatta Kettősség Nélküli Tanításai a Guru Kegyelme

    Sri Nisargadatta kettősség nélküli tanításai (Sri Nisargadatta a teljesen felébredett mahatma, iskolázatlan, felébredését megelőzően spirituális tudással nem rendelkező, műveletlen, alacsony kasztba tartozó családapa volt, utcai árus, aki cigaretta készítő- és árusítóként tengette életét Bombay nyomornegyedében álló bódéjában. Felébredését követően egy, a boltja közelében lévő nyilvános vizelde fölötti padlásszobában tanított. E világból az 1980-as évek elején, 80-as éveiben távozott. Az alábbi írás az utolsó években Nisargadatta látogatóinak kérdéseire adott válaszaiból született kiadott és magán forrásokból származik, különösebb sorrend, vagy időbeli elrendezés nélkül.) Al Drucker fordítása, Prashanti Nilayam, 1987. június magyarítás: nisargadattin A Guru kegyelme A guru szavaiba vetett hited intenzitása a legfontosabb; ennek megléte esetén a kegyelem áradása automatikus. A guru iránti hit alapja a belső tudatosság, az Önvalódban való hit. Gurummal való kapcsolatom alig két és fél évig tartott. A számomra átadott üzenete nagyon mélyen megérintett. Egyetlen dologban időztem csak: „Te az Abszolút vagy, te a Parabrahman vagy”. Ezt követően nem kételkedtem többé, és nem voltak kérdéseim többé. Amint gurum átadta számomra, amit mondania kellett, soha többé semmi mással nem törődtem – a guru szavain csüngtem. Pontosan tudom, hogy mennyire átmeneti a jelen dolgok állapota, és az örökkévaló állapotot szintén ismerem. Semmire sem megyek ezzel a mulandó állapottal. A hamisat hamisnak ismertem fel. Mióta megtaláltam valódi maradandó állapotomat, nincs szükségem ebből semmire; magától jött, és magától fog elmenni. Abban a teljességben nincs szükség semmire. Elértem a teljesség állapotát, a gurummal való talákozásom után; ha nem találkoztunk volna, úgy éltem és haltam volna meg, mint átlagember. A mély, sötétkék állapot, az árnyék, amelyben megpihenhetsz, az a guru kegyelme. A sötétség, amit akkor látsz, amikor behúnyod a szemed, a guru kegyelmének az árnyéka.
