ISBN 81-208-2027-4, Rs 295.00 Reviewed by Kazimieras Seibutis Sri Aurobindo Cultural Center, Vilnius Any book about such a challenging matter as Advaita Vedanta is fascinating, therefore it is no wonder that reading a short introduction on the subject by Arvind Sharrna is an exciting experience indeed, not only because the author manages to avoid getting involved in conflicting aspects of different schools of classical intellectual trend of India that is not yet widely known in the West, but also because the subject matter is presented in a condensed and very succinct manner. Sharrna, Birks Professor of Comparative Religion at McGill University, attempts to over­ come this challenge by consistently relying on three approaches: scriptural, rational and experiential. Sharma says that he "tries to accord an independent status to each of these approaches without losing sight of their interconnectedness". In a short preface prior to the analysis, Sharma calls the readers' attention to a fundamental fact that in the West philosophy represents an intellectual movement which has achieved an independent status by shaking off constrains of theology. Meanwhile, within the framework of Indian culture such a divergence between philosophy and religion did not occur, and according to Sharma "the two, even when they become dual, remain undivided." Sharrna also draws attention to the concept of jfvanmukti and the pivotal idea, which supports the concept of jfvanmukti, that the results of one's faith can be attained while still living in this world.

In all the six philosophies, four Vedas, one hundred and eight Upanishads, eighteen Puranas and two epics, nowhere is it written that a female cannot wear the sacred thread.” —Swami Satyananda Saraswati Bhakti Yoga Sagar, p. 25 “Women, by and large, have more viveka or discrimination than men, not only in India but also in the West and everywhere in the world.

  • 'Liberty': Swami Vivekanand's Idea Of
    Volume : 4 | Issue : 6 | June2015 ISSN - 2250-1991 Research Paper Philosophy Reimagining the Concept of ‘Liberty’: Swami Vivekanand’s Idea of ‘Inclusive Freedom’ Assistant Professor, Department of Political Science, Dyal Singh Nishant Kumar College, University of Delhi The idea of ‘freedom’ as advocated by Swami Vivekanand can only be understood by looking at the broader aspects of his understanding regarding human ‘self’ and its integral relation with society. In this paper I argue that it is not possible to compartmentalize his idea under the veil of ‘positive or negative’ liberty (the categories explicitly used by Berlin to categorize Western notion of ‘Freedom’), also it is important to move beyond the category of spiritual freedom, which I believe, does not capture the real intention of Vivekanand and though an integral part of his thought, fails to bring out the idea in totality. ABSTRACT I propose to call his idea of freedom as ‘inclusive freedom’. KEYWORDS inclusive freedom, Vivekanand, karmayoga, Advaita The idea of freedom in Swami Vivekanand’s thought can be primary tenets of ‘Advaita’ Vedanta. deciphered by looking at the broader aspects of his under- standing regarding human self and its integral relation with Even within an individual the three aspects of mind, body and community.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Religion - Dissertations by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. ABSTRACT “She’s an All-in-One Guru”: Devotion to a 21st century Mystic Anandmurti Gurumaa is a multi-lingual teacher of meditation and “spirituality” situated at the intersection of Hindu, Buddhist, Sufi and Sikh mystical traditions. This dissertation, employing inter-disciplinary methodology, provides an in-depth study of Gurumaa and her rapidly developing, disciple-driven transnational spiritual movement. I introduce Gurumaa and her circle of devotees within the cultural context of globetrotting Indian gurus and examine issues of tradition and innovation in her mission. Through ethnographic writing, I specifically turn to examples of Gurumaa’s pluralism, gender activism and embrace of new media to discuss continuity and change within the tradition of guru-bhakti (devotion to the guru). Because Gurumaa embraces rhetoric of “female empowerment,” and points to her own “enlightened” female body as evidence that women can and do reach the highest spiritual states, her leadership offers an ideal context in which to consider emerging gendered re-interpretations of “tradition” in the new global religious milieu.
