  • Guide to 275 SIVA STHALAMS Glorified by Thevaram Hymns (Pathigams) of Nayanmars

Preface: Tirth Yatras or pilgrimages have been an integral part of Hinduism. Pilgrimages are considered quite important by the ritualistic followers of Sanathana dharma. There are a few centers of sacredness, which are held at high esteem by the ardent devotees who dream to travel and worship God in these holy places. All these holy sites have some mythological significance attached to them. When people go to a temple, they say they go for Darsan – of the image of the presiding deity. The pinnacle act of Hindu worship is to stand in the presence of the deity and to look upon the image so as to see and be seen by the deity and to gain the blessings. There are thousands of Siva sthalams- pilgrimage sites - renowned for their divine images. And it is for the Darsan of these divine images as well the pilgrimage places themselves - which are believed to be the natural places where Gods have dwelled - the pilgrimage is made.

Primarily Hindu societal concept Class /= caste. Is a set of social relations within a system of production (financial). Caste, conversely, is something you‟re born into. * as caste barriers are breaking down in modern India, class barriers are becoming more prominent. * first mention of caste differences are in the Rig Veda, which may have referred to main divisions of ancient Aryan society * the Rig Veda mentions a creation myth “Hymn of the Primeval Man” which refers to the creation of the universe and the division of man into four groups of body parts (below under section 3) * outsiders consider caste to the be the defining aspect of indian society. Megasthenes and Alberuni both focus on that when they analyze the culture. Jati or jat – subcaste. these have distinct names like “Gaud Saraswat Brahmins”.

  • Moksa in Jainism -With Special Reference to Haribhadra Suri
    ( 14 ) Journal of Indian and Buddhist Studies Vol. 54, No.3, March 2006 Moksa in Jainism -with special reference to Haribhadra Suri - Yasunori HARADA 0. Introduction In ancient India, how people could eliminate the suffering of samsara and obtain liberation (moksa) was a serious issue. This was also the case for the Jains. They developed an original theory of karma since the time of Mahavira. Umasvati (ca. 5- 6c) systematized a theory of liberation in his work, the TAAS. Within that text he describes the Jaina view of the world and karma. In the 10th chapter he explains in particular the Jaina theory of liberation. Haribhadra Suri (ca. 8c), a Jaina Svetambara monk and scholar, also discusses a theory of liberation in the 5th chapter of the Anekantavadapravesa.l)However, instead of developingUmasvati's theory of libera- tion, he criticizes the Buddhist view of momentariness (ksanikatva),in particular that of Dharmakirti (ca. 600-660AD). The present article examines the AVP, especially concerning the way in which Haribhadra Suri refutes the ksanikatva theory. In ad- dition, it compares Haribhadra Suri with his predecessor, the Digambara scholar Samantabhadra(ca. 600 AD),who takes the same view, i. e. the anekantavada. Thus this paper will shed new light on an aspect of the Jaina theory of liberation in the post-Agamic "logico-epistemological"tradition that has not as yet been studied in detail. 1. The Liberation Theory of Umasvati First, I would like to confirm the theoretical role of liberation in the TAAS. Umasvati enumerates 7 tattvas: jiva, ajiva, asrava, bandha, samvara, nirjara and moksa.2)This world, according to the TAAS, consists of jivas and ajivas.

(i) sadasTvamueti and mahasadasivamueti. he idea implied in the positing of the two T gods, the Sadasivamurti and the Maha- sadasivamurti contains within it the whole philo- sophy of the Suddha-Saiva school of Saivaism, with- out an adequate understanding of which it is not possible to appreciate why Sadasiva is held in the highest estimation by the Saivas. It is therefore unavoidable to give a very short summary of the philosophical aspect of these two deities as gathered from the Vatulasuddhagama. According to the Saiva-siddhantins there are three tatvas (realities) called Siva, Sadasiva and Mahesa and these are said to be respectively the nishJcald, the saJcald-nishJcald and the saJcaW^^ aspects of god the word kald is often used in philosophy to imply the idea of limbs, members or form ; we have to understand, for instance, the term nishkald to mean (1) Also iukshma, sthula-sukshma and sthula, and tatva, prabhdva and murti. 361 46 HINDU ICONOGEAPHY. has foroa that which do or Imbs ; in other words, an undifferentiated formless entity.

JAN 9 1986 EDITORIAL PREFACE THE writers of this series of volumes on the variant forms of religious life in India are governed in their work by two impelling motives. I. They endeavour to work in the sincere and sympathetic spirit of science. They desire to understand the perplexingly involved developments of thought and life in India and dis passionately to estimate their value. They recognize the futility of any such attempt to understand and evaluate, unless it is grounded in a thorough historical study of the phenomena investigated. In recognizing this fact they do no more than share what is common ground among all modern students of religion of any repute.

  • Jain Tattvas and Philosophy of Karma - by Pravin K
    Read part 1 here Jain Tattvas and Philosophy of Karma - By Pravin K. Shah Asrava (Cause of the influx of karma) Asrava is the cause, which leads to the influx of good and evil karma which leads to the bondage of the soul. Asrava may be described as an attraction in the soul toward sense objects. The following are causes of Asrava or influx of good and evil karma: Mithyatva - Ignorance Avirati - Lack of self-restraint Pramada* - Unawareness or unmindfulness Kasaya - Passions like anger, conceit, deceit, and lust Yoga - Activities of mind, speech, and body *Some Jain literature mention only four causes of Asrava. They include Pramad in the category of Kasaya. Bandha (Bondage of karma) Bandha is the attachment of karmic matter (karma pudgala) to the soul. The soul has had this karmic matter bondage from eternity because of its own ignorance. This karmic body is known as the karmana body or causal body or karma. The karmic matter is a particular type of matter which is attracted to the soul because of soul's ignorance, lack of self-restraint, passions, unmindfulness, activities of body, mind, and speech. The soul, which is covered by karmic matter, continues acquiring new karma from the universe and exhausting old karma into the universe through the above-mentioned actions at every moment. Because of this continual process of acquiring and exhausting karma particles, the soul has to pass through the cycles of births and deaths and experiencing pleasure and pain. So under normal circumstances, the soul can not attain freedom from karma and hence liberation.

  • Sri Vidya Sai Srinivasa Shodasha Darshanam
    Sri Vidya Sai Srinivasa Shodasha Darshanam Sai Venkatesh Introduction What is the ultimate goal of human life? What is the ultimate truth of all existence? The answers to both of these lie in a single source, which is the highest point human thinking and consciousness has ever reached: This source is called Advaita Vedanta. This is the universal truth for all of humanity. For various reasons, recorded and compiled literature of Vedanta is available presently in India, and in the same language, Sanskrit. This does not make Vedanta Indian or Hindu. Vedanta is Global. It is Universal. It is Truth. Vedanta is the end wisdom of the vast collection known as Vedas. It is condensed in Upanishads. Kanchi Mahaperiyava has said that there are records of Vedanta existing in the entire world, divided into 32 geographic regions. By its nature of Truth, Vedanta is called non-dual or Advaita. The appearance of entire world, as distinct objects, is illusion or Maya. It is all just creation in a dream. The Self is in reality the dreamer, not this human with body and mind, which is just one of many characters in the dream. God is that highest character who is beyond the universe, creating and destroying it. Since the Self creates the universe of illusion like in a dream, the Self is God, or Parabrahma. The objects in universe is not distinct. It is all one consciousness, just as dream with all its characters is one unit. Sarvam Brahmamayam. Characters in your dream are essentially you. Since the Self is the origin of the world, the Self, which is God or Truth, is the Mother.
