  • You Wrote: Q1: I'm Confused on the Subject of Yuga Avatars in This Cycle of Kali
    You wrote: Q1: I'm confused on the subject of yuga avatars in this cycle of Kali. Gaudiya Vaisnavas claim Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu as the avatar for this particular cycle of Kali yuga. Since he has already appeared, will this kali yuga end without the appearance of the Kalki avatar? This seems to contradict the Vishnu Purana. Also, it is cited in Caitanya Caritamrita (Madhya 6.99) that there is no lila avatar in this age of kali, but it does acknowledge Mahaprabhu as an avatara in this cycle, although hidden. This seems to contradict the Vishnu Purana and the Bhagavata Purana as well. The word hidden isn't used, or as far as I can see, implied in the Bhagavatam verse 11.5.32. Is there any Vedic literature outside of the Gaudiya tradition that support these conclusions? Q2; The description of the appearance of Krsna for this age is cited Srimad Bhagavatam 11.5.32. It is also cited in the Vishnu Purana "will be born in the family of Vishnuyas'as, an eminent Brahman of Sambhala village, as Kalki, endowed with the eight superhuman faculties." Vishnu Purana 4:24. Can it be argued that the two descriptions are of the Kalki avatar? Gaudiya Vaisnavas point to this verse, particularly the word akrsnam, as proof that this means golden or yellow. But, the appearance of Kalki seems to fit the translation of the word, as well as the other descriptions (particularly weapons) in the 11.5.32 Srimad Bhagavatam verse. I will answer these questions together as there is some degree of overlap because of the nature of the topic.

II.—Essays on the Purdnas. I. By Professor HORACE HAYMAN WILSON, Director of the Royal Asiatic Society. Read \6th of April, 1836. INTRODUCTORY REMARKS. THE earliest inquiries into the religion, chronology, and history of the Hindus, ascertained that there existed a body of writings especially devoted to those subjects, from which it was sanguinely anticipated much valuable and authentic information would be derived. These were the Puranas of Sanscrit literature, collections which, according to the definition of a Purana agreeably to Sanscrit writers, should treat of the creation and renovation of the universe, the division of time, the institutes of law and religion, the genealogies of the patriarchal families, and the dynasties of kings; and they, therefore, offered a prospect of our penetrating the obscurity in which the origin and progress of the Hindu social system had so long been enveloped.

  • Of Hemadri's (13Th Century CE) 'Chaturvarga Chintamani' Vol.2
    1 The ‘Vrata kaaNDa’ (section on vows and observances) of Hemadri’s (13th Century CE) ‘Chaturvarga Chintamani’ Vol.2, Part 1, contains hundreds of vrata-s that the author has found fit to be listed for the use of the followers of sanatana dharma. A perusal of the list throws light on the practices of the vaidika-s of the author’s period and before. We can see that vaidika-s had no narrow views about the worshiping of various deities of the sanatana dharma. That shows that maintaining such narrow views as to ‘only these deities are fit to be worshiped and not others’ is an unvedic one, not to the approval of Shankaracharya and his followers. Images from Chaturvarga Chintamani Vol 2, Part 1: Pdf p 121: The speciality of this listing by Hemadri is, the names given in the margin/header for various verses is reminiscent of the Taittiriya Aranyaka mantra: वामदेवाय नमो 煍येष्ठाय नमः श्रेष्ठाय नमो 셁द्राय नमः कालाय नमः कलविकरणाय नमो बलविकरणाय नमो बलाय नमो बलप्रमथनाय नमः सिभव तू दमनाय नमो मनोन्मनाय नमः ॥ ५॥ occurring in the Mahanarayanopanishat. This mantra is famous as it is chanted with other mantras like ‘sadyo jaatam….aghorebhyo….’ during the abhisheka for Shiva. The verses given by Hemadri are grouped under the various names and forms of ‘Katyayani’, the consort of Shiva. In fact Shankaracharya, in his Prapanchasara, in a particular chapter (number 25) on Shiva upasana, has paraphrased these mantras thereby confirming that these mantras are addressed to Shiva only as the vedic tradition holds, and not any other deity.

    Social Social Information Science ,Vo l. 3,175-187 , 1997 Hinduism (Siva and Visnu): God as Superhero 輸 the Finite , Infinite Dialectic 剛 Martin L ucas * ヒンズー教(シバとビシュヌ) スーパーヒーローとしての神一有限と無限の弁証法一 M. ルーカスホ The theme of this paper is the dual nature of the Hindu divinities , as por- trayed trayed in the mythology. There are presented as human characters , with human weaknesses , but at the same time divine reveal attributes. These attributes jus- tify tify the devotion they receive , yet that devotion is perhaps more likely to be ir ト spired spired by the more comprehensible human aspect of their being. 1 deal firstly with the fallibility of Brahma , Visnu and Siva , as presented in a story from the Bh αvisy αPuran α. 1 proceed to an account of the relationship between between Siva and Parvati in the Sα ur αand Sk αnd αPur αnαs ,and how the God and Goddess are self 網 conscious of their unity of human and divine attributes. My next section deals with the figure of Krisna in the Bh αgαuαtα Puran αthe love love and devotion inspired by the child and youth , contrasted with the fear and trembling trembling associated with the occasional theophanic revelation. The supreme example of this contrast occurs in the Bh αgα vαd Git α. Here , the divine form of Krisna Krisna is incomprehensible to Arjuna in the text ,and unimaginable to readers. For God to be represented at all in a way which we can appreciate we require some form of mythical or literary context , to locate our imaginations. 1 end with a postscript discussing O'Flaherty's dichotomy of Order and Chaos ,and her association of myth with the chaotic realm.
