Download or read book Ritual in an Oscillating Universe written by Richard H. Davis and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2014-07-14 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saiva liturgy is performed in a world that oscillates: a world permeated by the presence of Siva, where humans live in a condition of bondage and where the highest aim of the soul is to attain liberation from its fetters. In this account of Indian temple ritual, Richard Davis uses medieval Hindu texts to describe the world as it is envisioned by Saiva siddhanta and the way daily worship reflects and acts within that world. He argues that this worship is not simply a set of ritualized gestures, but rather a daily catechism in which the worshiper puts into action all the major themes of Saiva philosophy: the cyclic pattern of cosmic emission and reabsorption, the human path of attaining liberation, the manifestation of divinity in the world, and the proper interrelationship of humanity and god. In re-creating the convictions and intentions of a well-versed worshiper of the twelfth century, Davis moves back and forth between philosophical and ritual texts, demonstrating the fundamental Saiva belief that the capacities of humans to know about the world and to act within it are two inter-related modalities of the unitary power of consciousness. Originally published in 1991.

Download or read book Framing cosmologies written by Allen Abramson and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2016-05-16 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How might the anthropological study of cosmologies – the ways in which the horizons of human worlds are imagined and engaged – illuminate understandings of the contemporary world? This book addresses this question by bringing together anthropologists whose research is informed by a concern with cosmological dimensions of social life in different ethnographic settings. Its overall aim is to reaffirm the value of the cosmological frame as a continuing source of analytical insight. Attending to the novel cosmological formations that emerge in such fields as modern markets, political landscapes, digital media and popular cinema, the book’s key task is to explore how modern circumstances are constituted within the variable imagination of worlds and their horizons. It will be of interest to all students and researchers in anthropology, as well as scholars in fields as diverse as film studies, cultural studies, comparative religion, science and technology studies, and broader social theory.

Download or read book Sacred Sound and Language in Classical Śaiva SiddhĀnta written by Mikael Stamm and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-04 with total page 302 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book attempts to reveal the full implication of the theory of language propounded by the tradition of Indian classical dualist Śaiva Siddhānta. The first part of the study draws an outline of dualist Śaiva Siddhānta withing the contextual setting of Tantric cults. The second part explores the field of theories of language through the discussion between three classical Indian traditions: Mīmāṁsā, Nyāyā, and the school of Bhartṛhari. The third part focuses on the important Śaiva Siddhānta text Nādakārikā by Rāmakaṇṭha, which is translated, analyzed and interpreted in the light of the classical traditions. In the fourth part the findings are further connected to the crucial initiation ritual, the dīkṣā, which shows the theory of nāda (subtle sound) 'in action', not unlike the role of eternal sounds within the orthodox Mīmāṁsā tradition. In the fifth part the dualist Śaiva Siddhānta is presented as a theory of language and sound which points to a radical concept of a (non)existent Self, as a pre-conceptual absolute 'Other' behind the pervasive matter. Thus, liberation is seen as an absolute event, manifested in speech as holding both a revealing and concealing potential; a tension or a strife which ultimately, in Heidegger's terms, conditions the fate of possibility of the (re)appearing of gods."--Back cover.
