Dr. Sukdaven suggested that I embark on the study of the concept of Maya. Although this concept provided a challenge for me and my faith, I wish to thank Dr. Sukdaven for giving me the opportunity to cover such a deep philosophical concept in Hinduism. This concept Maya is deeper than one expects and has broaden and enlightened my mind. Even though this was a difficult theme to cover it did however, give me a clearer understanding of how the world is seen in Hinduism. 3 List of Abbreviations AD Anno Domini BC Before Christ BCE Before Common Era BS Brahmasutra Upanishad BSB Brahmasutra Upanishad with commentary of Sankara BU Brhadaranyaka Upanishad with commentary of Sankara CE Common Era EW Emperical World GB Gitabhasya of Shankara GK Gaudapada Karikas Rg Rig Veda SBH Sribhasya of Ramanuja Svet.

Lecture 2: Vivekananda and Vedanta Philosophy the Meaning of “Vedanta”
Lecture 2: Vivekananda and Vedanta Philosophy The meaning of “vedanta” The word vedanta can be split into two: veda and anta and literally means “end of the Vedas”. Veda is derived from the root word vid which means “to know”. ‘Vedanta’ should be taken to mean the distilling of the philosophy of the Vedas and the Upanishads into its essential components. The Himalayan range of Upanishadic thought must be catalogued and classified so that we can comprehend it. Vivekananda’s view of Vedanta Just as the word ‘science’ does not refer to a specific subject, but rather to a method of understanding the physical world, Vivekananda views Vedanta as a method to understand both the internal world of the mind and consciousness and the external world of matter. Thus, Vedanta includes science and all forms of human creative endeavor that represent attempts to comprehend infinity in its manifold forms. Six systems of philosophy Nyaya, vaisesika, Samkhya, yoga, purva mimamsa and Vedanta. These translate as: logical realism, realistic pluralism, evolutionary dualism, disciplined meditation, preliminary interpretation of the Vedas, and synthesis of the Vedas, respectively. The systems correspond to the sutra period ranging from 200 CE to 600 CE. Early 19th century translations by European Indologists such as Max Muller had a Judeo- Christian coloring. The three schools of Vedanta Vedanta itself is divided into three schools: dvaita, visistadvaita, and advaita, corresponding to dualism, qualified dualism and non-dualism. The expansion of these schools belongs to the scholarly period: 600 CE to 1700 CE. The principal exponents of these schools were Shankara (advaita), Ramanuja (visistadvaita), and Madhva (dvaita).

This image is very unique. Here, one can see Ramanuja with the gnyAna mudra (the sign of a teacher; see his right/left hands); usually, Swami Ramanuja’s images always present him in the anjali mudra (offering worship, both hands together in obeisance). Our elders say that Swami Ramanuja’s image at Thirumala shows the gnyAna mudra, because it is here that Swami Ramanuja gave his lectures on Vedarta Sangraha, his insightful, profound treatise on the meaning of the Upanishads. It is also said that Swami Ramanuja here is considered an Acharya to Lord Srinivasa Himself, and that is why the hundi is located right in front of swami Ramanuja at the temple (as a mark of respect to an Acharya). In Thirumala, other than Lord Srinivasa, Varaha, Narasimha and A VEDICS JOURNAL Varadaraja, the only other accepted shrine is that of Swami Ramanuja.

SHANKARA: A HINDU REVIVALIST OR A CRYPTO BUDDHIST? by KENCHO TENZIN Under The Direction of Kathryn McClymond ABSTRACT Shankara, the great Indian thinker, was known as the accurate expounder of the Upanishads. He is seen as a towering figure in the history of Indian philosophy and is credited with restoring the teachings of the Vedas to their pristine form. However, there are others who do not see such contributions from Shankara. They criticize his philosophy by calling it “crypto-Buddhism.” It is his unique philosophy of Advaita Vedanta that puts him at odds with other Hindu orthodox schools. Ironically, he is also criticized by Buddhists as a “born enemy of Buddhism” due to his relentless attacks on their tradition. This thesis, therefore, probes the question of how Shankara should best be regarded, “a Hindu Revivalist or a Crypto-Buddhist?” To address this question, this thesis reviews the historical setting for Shakara’s work, the state of Indian philosophy as a dynamic conversation involving Hindu and Buddhist thinkers, and finally Shankara’s intellectual genealogy.

Sri Vaishnava Sampradaya Saara Nidhi(In Tamil) by Sri P.B.Annangarachariar Swamy
Sri VaishNaVa Sampradaya Saara Nidhi(in Tamil) By Sri P.B.Annangarachariar Swamy (The quintessence of of VaishNaVa Tradition) English Translation by Vengrai Parthasarathy Many are the ‘Living Creatures’ created by Brahma, the Lord of Creation (who is himself a creation of Sri Narayana). To be born a Human is a special privilege. And, to be born as a Hindu, that too a Sri VaishNaVa is a matchless blessing, because it is the cumulative effect or fruit of generational virtuous deeds (Karma). At the same time this privileged position carries with it many an obligation. To enhance its value, a true VaishNaVa has to know what the tradition is about and follow certain daily duties (dinacharya) or guide-lines. Lord Maha Vishnu, (known also as Narayana and Vasudeva among a thousand other names) manifested Himself in many AvatArs on earth to animate house-holders who may have lost their spiritual moorings and to crush evil doers and protect the virtuous (ParitharANAya SadhunAm, vinAashAya dushskruthAm). Archa-s are consecrated idols in the Divya Desam-s (108) the most prominent of which are Tirumalai, Srirangam, KAnchipuram, and TirunArayanapuram (Melkote) shrines. To bring home these truths the Lord has deputed Azhvar-s and Acharyas in human form. VaishNaVas are expected to follow sincerely the daily observances' (anushtAnam-s). We shall now follow through the highlights, by citing important things that Sri VaishnavA-s should know and do.. The Bhakthi cult was propagated by the Azhvar-s and the shrines cited by them are known as DIVYA DESAMs. The word ‘Divya’ has been employed by our ancestors very elegantly.Of all the religious literature on the Supreme Being, Sriman Narayana, the most important are the Sastra-s (in Sanskrit ) and –of equal importance--the Tamil Veda known as DIVYA PRABHANDHAM.

During this .period Advaita was Vedanta. Thomism is the tradition .of Christian routinely depicted as the high point of Hindu thought which is based on the work of the thought, while theistic Vedantic traditions were scholastic and Dominican friar, Thomas Aquinas held to be inferior, both by European indologists (1225-74 CE) and which was the norm for and neo-Hindus, such as Swami Vivekananda Catholic theological formation for most of the (1863-1902) and Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan 20th century.

Ramanuja's Concept of the Individual Soul and Human Freedom
RAMANUJA'S CONCEPT OF THE INDIVIDUAL SOUL AND HUMAN FREEDOM Cyril VELIATH S.]. THE INDIVIDUAL SOUL Ramanuja declares that the individual soul is a representation of the power of the Brahman ( vibhuti). He does this on the basis of several scriptural texts. Just as the souls and matter form a part (arrt~a), body (tanu), or form (ropa) of the Brahman, in the same way they also constitute his vibhuti. These souls exist in their own essential nature, and also through their association with matter, as inhabitants of bodies (kSetrajiia). The essential nature of these individual souls is knowledge, but this nature is clouded by nescience in the form of good and evil actions, and consequently the souls do not recognize their true nature, but consider themselves simply as material entities. We know that it is nescience that differentiates the individual souls into the souls of gods, men, and other creatures from the Brahman, because such distinctions are not due to the essential nature of the souls themselves. The world we see around us has been created by Brahman as an object of fruition for the individual souls, in coordination with their good and evil deserts. Brahman is the Self of these souls, who being attributes or modes of Brahman are also infinite like him, but this qualification of infinity excludes all those souls whose essential nature and attributes are limited, and who are distinct from the Released souls and the souls in Sarrtstira. The souls are not identical with each other since they inhabit different bodies, and the term individual soul or Jlva, can also denote Brahman, in as much as he is the Self of these intelligent entities which constitute his body.

This idol is very special to all VaishNavas. It is said that sometime before Ramanuja left this earth for SriVaikuNTam (the abode of the Supreme Lord, where all souls are in a state of permanent bliss serving the Lord), his devotees wanted to install an image of him at his birthplace. So, they approached Ramanuja, and sought permission. Ramanuja gave permission, and the idol was made. This idol is said to be an exact image of how Ramanuja was during his life. When the idol was shown to him, Ramanuja embraced the image. Ramanuja’s devotees believe that Sri Ramanuja in Sri Perumbudur through this process, he transferred Himself onto this idol. This idol was then installed at SriperumbUdUr.
