Book Synopsis Hindu-Christian Dialogue by : Mariasusai Dhavamony
Download or read book Hindu-Christian Dialogue written by Mariasusai Dhavamony and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2021-11-15 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dialogue is an integral part of the mission of the Christian church. The immensity of the ocean of Hindu doctrine and thought presents a significant obstacle to Christians who have been invited by the Roman Catholic Church to “scrutinize the divine Mystery” present in other religions. Many, fascinated by Hindu mysticism, confuse permanent Hindu beliefs with certain current Western religious movements. India’s quest for the divine embodies multiple forms. Its millennia-old methods of meditation and varieties of asceticism often confuse those who are less inclined to experience of an inner spiritual nature. This book attempts to address some of these difficulties and questions. It is the author’s belief that in the Hindu-Christian encounter the Christian believer will also rediscover the originality and newness of the Christian revelation, viz. the intervention of God in the history of salvation whereby God reveals his salvific love in Jesus Christ. Possessing expert knowledge of both Hinduism and Christianity, the author approaches the Hindu-Christian dialogue with sympathy and discernment.
Book Synopsis Between Hindu and Christian by : Kerry P. C. San Chirico
Download or read book Between Hindu and Christian written by Kerry P. C. San Chirico and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2023-01-13 with total page 361 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Between Hindu and Christian examines a movement of low caste and Dalit devotees worshipping Jesus in Catholic spaces in Varanasi, the purported heart of Hindu civilization. Through thick description and analysis, the author examines the worldview and ways of life of these devotees, along with the Catholic priests and nuns who mediate Jesus, Mary and other members of the Catholic pantheon in a place never associated with Christianity. The author places this movement within the context of the devotional history of Varanasi, the history of Indian Christianity, the rise of low caste and Dalit emancipatory struggles, and the ascendance of Hindu nationalism to demonstrate, among other things, that religious categories are not nearly as self-evident as they often seem"--

Book Synopsis Seeing Krishna by : Margaret H. Case
Download or read book Seeing Krishna written by Margaret H. Case and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2000-04-20 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book offers a close-up view of the religious world of one of the most influential families in Vrinbadan, India's premier place of pilgrimage for worshipers of Krishna. This priestly family has arguably been the most creative force in this important town. Their influence also radiates well beyond India's borders both because of their tireless work in fostering scholarship and performance about Krishna and because the scion of the family, Shrivatsa Goswami, has become an international spokesman for Hindu ways and concerns. Case, who has been an occasional resident in the family ashram, gives the reader a real sense of the atmosphere of daily life there, and the complete devotion of the residents to the service and worship of Krishna.
Book Synopsis Christ and Krishna by : Steven Rosen
Download or read book Christ and Krishna written by Steven Rosen and published by . This book was released on 2011-09-16 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book focuses on the mystical aspect of the religious journey. Its mandate is to highlight the harmony of spiritual truth, not the divisiveness that separates the various religious traditions. This is accomplished in the form of a story -- a dialogue between two friends, both born and raised in India. One is a wandering mendicant in the Vaishnava-Hindu tradition and the other a Jesuit theologian. While the interaction in this book is fictitious, it is based on decades of my own interreligious conversations with numerous rabbis, priests, and other clerics of assorted faiths" -- author's website.
Book Synopsis Vrindavan's Encounter with Modernity by : Samrat S. Kumar
Download or read book Vrindavan's Encounter with Modernity written by Samrat S. Kumar and published by LIT Verlag Münster. This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 211 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade traditional Indian temple towns have transformed into centres for urban lifestyles and tourist activities. One of these is the historic temple town Vrindavan in North India, on which this study focuses. Exploring the multiple socio-cultural realities present in the town, the author engages with the narratives of the residents as they respond to the socio-environmental changes against the backdrop of national and regional modernisation processes. Here the imaginaries of a mythic Vrindavan, with its pristine and sacred environment, are evoked in narrations on contemporary modernity.
Book Synopsis Krishna’s Playground by : John Stratton Hawley
Download or read book Krishna’s Playground written by John Stratton Hawley and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-11-30 with total page 456 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about a deeply beloved place—many call it the spiritual capital of India. Located at a dramatic bend in the River Yamuna, a hundred miles from the center of Delhi, Vrindavan is the spot where the god Krishna is believed to have spent his childhood and youth. For Hindus it has always stood for youth writ large—a realm of love and beauty that enables one to retreat from the weight and harshness of the world. Now, though, the world is gobbling up Vrindavan. Delhi’s megalopolitan sprawl inches closer day by day—half the town is a vast real-estate development—and the waters of the Yamuna are too polluted to drink or even bathe in. Temples now style themselves as theme parks, and the world’s tallest religious building is under construction in Krishna’s pastoral paradise. What happens when the Anthropocene Age makes everything virtual? What happens when heaven gets plowed under? Like our age as a whole, Vrindavan throbs with feisty energy, but is it the religious canary in our collective coal mine?

Book Synopsis The Truth, the Way, the Life by : Francis Xavier Clooney
Download or read book The Truth, the Way, the Life written by Francis Xavier Clooney and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Truth, the Way, the Life offers a careful reading of the three holy mantras of Srivaisnavism, a south Indian Hindu tradition dedicated to Narayana, Lord of the universe, and Sri, his eternal spouse. The mantras, short prayers rich in theological and devotional meaning, explain and encourage a way of life dedicated to praise and service, surrender and dependence on divine grace - and so introduce key topics that Christian readers will find familiar and still central to the spiritual life today. Francis Clooney's commentary is explicitly Christian and yet deeply indebted to the classic reading of the mantras by the 14th century theologian Vedanta Desika; it thus exemplifies an interreligious learning appropriate to the 21st century and yet, in the end, still deeply Christian.
