Where information has been derived from other sources I confirm that this has been indicated the thesis. ABSTRACT Following twenty-five years of civil war between the Sri Lankan government troops and the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam (LTTE), a ceasefire was called in February 2002. This truce is now on the point of collapse, due to a break down in talks over the post-war administration of the northern and eastern provinces. These instabilities have lead to conflicts within the insurgent ranks as well as political and religious factions in the south. This thesis centres on how the anguish of war and its unresolved aftermath is being communicated among Tamils living in the northern reaches of Sri Lanka.

  • The Sacred Presence of the Guru: the Velala Lineages of Tiruvavatuturai, Dharmapuram, and Tiruppanantal
    THE SACRED PRESENCE OF THE GURU THE SACRED PRESENCE OF THE GURU: THE VELALA LINEAGES OF TIRUVAVATUTURAI, DHARMAPURAM, AND TIRUPPANANTAL By KATHLEEN IVA KOPPEDRAYER, B.A., M.A. A thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy McMaster University (c) Copyright by Kathleen Iva Koppedrayer, May 1990 DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY (1990) McMASTER UNIVERSITY (Religious Studies) Hamilton, Ontario TITLE: The Sacred Presence of the Guru: The Velala Lineages of Tiruvavatuturai, Dharmapuram, and Tiruppanantal AUTHOR: K. I. Koppedrayer, B.A. (McGill University) M.A. (McMaster University) SUPERVISOR: Professor Paul Younger NUMBER OF PAGES: xi, 363 ii ABSTRACT This thesis examines a set of Saiva religious institutions, the Tiruvavatuturai Adhinam, the Dharmapuram Adhinam, and the Kasi Matha of Tiruppanantal, all located in Tamilnadu, India. Preliminary research indicated that models of monastic retreat and seminary yield incomplete and sometimes distorted pictures of the institutions in their social setting. Mindful of the dynamic character of these institutions, this thesis endeavours to construct a better model of understanding the institutions' basic structure. This work used a variety of sources to gauge the institutions' scope of activity. These sources ranged from classical material, inscriptions, hagiographies, doctrinal and ritual writings, to contemporary records, first-person observation and interviews. In addressing the question of basic structure, the thesis argues that though these three institutions are conveniently called Saiva matas, the matam and the religious institution represent two different abstract entities. The work suggests that the religious institution is structured around the concept of lineage. The institution is above all an aggregate of religious individuals tied together by "fictive kin" ties.

  • KAUAI's HINDU MONASTERY 107 Kaholalele Road, Kapaa, HI 96746
    KAUAI’S HINDU MONASTERY 107 Kaholalele Road, Kapaa, HI 96746 Phone: 808-822-3012 Email: [email protected] Website: http://www.himalayanacademy.com/monastery/about Kauai's Hindu Monastery, or Kauai Aadheenam, is a traditional South Indian style monastery/temple complex on the island of Kauai. It was founded in 1970 by our Gurudeva, Satguru Sivaya Subramuniyaswami (1927-2001), 162nd Jagadacharya of the Nandinatha Sampradaya’s Kailasa Parampara, which extends back 2,200 years and beyond, to Maharishi Nandinatha and his eight disciples—Sanatkumara, Sanakar, Sanadanar, Sananthanar, Sivayogamuni, Patanjali, Vyaghrapada and Tirumular. In recent times the power of this lineage was passed through Siddha Kadaitswami (1804-1891) to Satguru Chellappaswami (1840-1915) and then to Siva Yogaswami (1872-1964), who ordained Gurudeva as his successor in 1949 with a tremendous slap on the back. Yogaswami instructed Gurudeva to “go ‘round the world and roar like a lion” and “build a bridge between East and West.” Gurudeva’s Kauai monastery, in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, has become a powerful pillar supporting a robust spiritual bridge joining India and America. From this small monastery Gurudeva did indeed roar like a lion—in his travels worldwide, his legacy Master Course Trilogy, his acclaimed international quarterly magazine Hinduism Today and the many other extensive outreach efforts of Himalayan Academy, the teaching and publishing branch of his organization. The echoes of his roaring become ever stronger as time passes. AIMS, IDEALS, LEADERSHIP The mission of Kauai’s Hindu Monastery is to protect, preserve and promote the Saivite Hindu religion as embodied in the Tamil culture, traditions and scriptures of South India and Sri Lanka.

  • Historical Timeline of Hinduism in America 1780'S Trade Between
    3/3/16, 11:23 AM Historical Timeline of Hinduism in America 1780's Trade between India and America. Trade started between India and America in the late 1700's. In 1784, a ship called "United States" arrived in Pondicherry. Its captain was Elias Hasket Derby of Salem. In the decades that followed Indian goods became available in Salem, Boston and Providence. A handful of Indian servant boys, perhaps the first Asian Indian residents, could be found in these towns, brought home by the sea captains.[1] 1801 First writings on Hinduism In 1801, New England writer Hannah Adams published A View of Religions, with a chapter discussing Hinduism. Joseph Priestly, founder of English Utilitarianism and isolater of oxygen, emigrated to America and published A Comparison of the Institutions of Moses with those of the Hindoos and other Ancient Nations in 1804. 1810-20 Unitarian interest in Hindu reform movements The American Unitarians became interested in Indian thought through the work of Hindu reformer Rammohun Roy (1772-1833) in India. Roy founded the Brahmo Samaj which tried to reform Hinduism by affirming monotheism and rejecting idolotry. The Brahmo Samaj with its universalist ideas became closely allied to the Unitarians in England and America. 1820-40 Emerson's discovery of India Ralph Waldo Emerson discovered Indian thought as an undergraduate at Harvard, in part through the Unitarian connection with Rammohun Roy. He wrote his poem "Indian Superstition" for the Harvard College Exhibition of April 24, 1821. In the 1830's, Emerson had copies of the Rig-Veda, the Upanishads, the Laws of Manu, the Bhagavata Purana, and his favorite Indian text the Bhagavad-Gita.

  • Lesson 36, What Is Our Heritage of Gurus?
    Lesson 36 Enlightened Beings… Since the beginning of time, the power, or shakti, of God Siva has been carried forth by enlightened beings, satgurus. Parampara or chains of gurus… Many of these masters trained other great souls and passed on their power to them. As this happened again and again for thousands of years, many chains of gurus, called parampara, were formed. The Kailasa Parampara Our lineage is called the Kailasa Parampara. It means the lineage from Siva’s Himalayan mountain, Kailas. It began thousands of years ago. The first master that history records is Maha rishi Nandinatha (ca 250 bce). Rishi Tirumular wrote the Tirumantiram He passed his power to Rishi Tirumular, a sage who wrote a yoga text called Tirumantiram. After him, over 150 rishis carried the shakti of Siva forward, their names lost to history. Himalayan rishi to Kadaitswami In the 19th century, a nameless Himalayan rishi of this lineage traveled to Bengaluru in South India. There he passed the thread of power to Kadaitswami (1804–1891) and sent him to Sri Lanka to strengthen Saivism there. Chelappaswami to Satguru Yogaswami … Kadaitswami passed his power to Sage Chellappaswami (1840–1915). Chelappaswami to Satguru Yogaswami … He, in turn, initiated Satguru Yogaswami (1872–1964). In 1949, Yogaswami ordained our Gurudeva, Sivaya Subramuniyaswami (1927–2001). Gurudeva Sıvaya Subramuniyaswami Gurudeva brought Saivism to the West and established Kauai Aadheenam, his monastery, on the Hawaiian island of Kauai in 1970. Gurudeva to Satguru Bodhinatha Veylanswami In 2001 he initiated Bodhinatha Veylanswami as his successor. The power from all previous gurus and the blessings of the devas that assist them abide in the current preceptor.
