Book excerpt: Tantravarttika is the magnum opus of Kumarila Bhatta, a seventh century thinker and greatest exponent of the Purva Mimamsa system. Founder of the Bhatta school of Mimamsa, he was a native of South India. This work is a commentary on a part of Kumarila's commentary on Purvamimamsa Sutra of Jaimini and Sabara-svamin's Bhasya, mainly in prose, running from Adhyaya I, Pada II to the end of Adhyaya III. This is a unique work showing the deep scholarship of the author. Here Kumarila has shown his mastery over other schools of thought as well. His other works are Slokavartika, a commentary on I. 1 of the Purvamimamsa Sutra of Jaimini. This great work was translated for the first time into English by Dr. Ganganatha Jha and published in Bibliotheca Indica Series, of which this is a reprint.The translator, Dr. Ganganatha Jha. (1871) was a versatile scholar. He was a Professor of Sanskrit in the old Muir Central College Allahabad, then the Principal of the government Sanskrit College, Banaras and then the vice-Chancellor of the Allahabad University for nine years. Though engaged in all these multifarious duties he was able to write more than fifty works on different Indian philosophical systems. In addition to the tantravarttika, he also translated Kumarila's Slokavarttika and Sabara's Bhasya into English. He was the first scholar to write a thesis on 'The Prabhakara School of Purvamimamsa'IntroductionThe Introduction to a book like the Tantra-Vartika is expected to contain (1) an account of the Author and (2) a brief account of the contents of the work. As regards (1), I have secured a contribution from my esteemed friend, Pandit Gopinath Kaviraj of the Sanskrit College, Benares, which is given below. As regards (2), I have nothing very much to add to what I have already said in my work on the Prabhakara School of Purva Mimansa. I have how

Download or read book Puspika: Tracing Ancient India Through Texts and Traditions written by Nina Mirnig and published by Oxbow Books. This book was released on 2013-12-23 with total page 489 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is perhaps commonplace to say that India is one of the world's richest and most enticing cultures. One thousand years have passed since Albiruni, arguably the first "Indologist", wrote his outsider's account of the subcontinent and two hundred years have passed since the inception of Western Indology. And yet, what this monumental scholarship has achieved is still outweighed by the huge tracts of terra incognita: thousands of works lacking scholarly attention and even more manuscripts which still await careful study whilst decaying in the unforgiving Indian climate. In September 2009 young researchers and graduate students in this field came together to present their cutting-edge work at the first International Indology Graduate Research Symposium, which was held at Oxford University. This volume, the first in a new series which will publish the proceedings of the Symposium, will make important contributions to the study of the classical civilisation of the Indian sub-continent. The series, edited by Nina Mirnig, Péter-Dániel Szántó and Michael Williams, will strive to cover a wide range of subjects reaching from literature, religion, philosophy, ritual and grammar to social history, with the aim that the research published will not only enrich the field of classical Indology but eventually also contribute to the studies of history and anthropology of India and Indianised Central and South-East Asia.

This book was released on 2019-04-09 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first complete, critical English translation of the Cakrasamvara Tantra, also known as the Sriherukabhidhana and Laghusamvara. This is the first complete, critical English translation of the Cakrasamvara Tantra. Composed in India during the eighth century, it is a foundational scripture of one of the most important Indian Buddhist tantric traditions. The translator’s introductory essay provides an analysis of the historical and intellectual contexts in which the Cakrasamvara Tantra was composed. The heavily annotated translation was made on the basis of the surviving Sanskrit manuscripts of the tantra and its commentaries, parallel passages in related explanatory tantras (vyakhyatantra), two different Tibetan translations of the root text, and several Tibetan commentaries. Includes a trilingual glossary and index. The author has also translated the commentary on this tantra by the great Tibetan scholar Tsong Khapa (1357–1419), Illumination of the Hidden Meaning, now published in two companion volumes. Taken together, these three volumes provide the reader with the first full study in English of this pivotal tantra. Composed in India during the late eighth or early ninth century, the Cakrasamvara Tantra is a foundational scripture of one of the most important Indian Buddhist tantric traditions, as evidenced by the vast number of commentaries and ritual literature associated with it. Along with the Hevajra Tantra, it is one of the earliest and most influential of the yogini tantras, a genre of tantric Buddhist scripture that emphasizes female deities, particularly the often fiercely depicted yoginis and ?akinis.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Hindu India both orality and sonality have enjoyed great cultural significance since earliest times. They have a distinct influence on how people approach texts. The importance of sound and its perception has led to rites, models of cosmic order, and abstract formulas. Sound serves both to stimulate religious feelings and to give them a sensory form. Starting from the perception and interpretation of sound, the authors chart an unorthodox cultural history of India, turning their attention to an important, but often neglected aspect of daily religious life. They provide a stimulating contribution to the study of cultural systems of perception that also adds new aspects to the debate on orality and literality.

Download or read book Vijnanabhairava Tantra written by V. Ravi and published by MANBLUNDER. This book was released on 2012-11-17 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vijnanabhairava is a Trika and tantra Scripture, wherein Shiva teaches His Consort Shakti, one hundred and twelve methods of contemplations to realize Him. As far as Trika Philosophy is concerned, it uses many complicated Sanskrit words and unless one understands the meaning of technical Sanskrit words in detail, it could be difficult to understand the full glory of this great Scripture. A sincere attempt has been made in this book to avoid all complicated words and make the teachings of Shiva as simple as possible. The main idea of this book is to discuss about one hundred and twelve contemplations in very simple terms, without loosing sight on the focus of this sacred Scripture. All these contemplations can be easily practiced at home. The entire text is in the form of divine conversation between Shiva and Shakti. Shakti asks Her Lord Shiva and gets clarifications on some of Her doubts and that is how this ancient Scripture has come into existence. The text has one hundred and sixty three aphorisms. Mind is the only factor in God realization. When a practitioner is able to dissolve his mind into the supreme consciousness of Bhairava, he becomes Bhairava himself. Tantra is based on the principle of accepting one as himself. In yoga one has to dissolve himself into That. The aim of both tantra and yoga are the same, realising the Self within, but the path taken by both are different. For practicing tantra, one need not have extensive knowledge. Understanding certain technical terms are necessary to achieve rapid progress. In yoga one has to fight against the principles of nature but in tantra one continues to remain with the nature. However, practice is important in both.As far as possible, Sanskrit alphabets have been avoided and are used only in a very few places. However, IAST (International Alphabet for Sanskrit Transliteration) format is used through out the book, so that original glory of Sanskrit pronunciation is not lost. The basic idea of the book is to explain the teachings of Shiva in simplest terms possible and the book does not dwell at length about Trika Philosophy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The papers published in this volume were originally read and discussed at a three day seminar sponsored by the Canadian Society for the Study of Religion/Societie Canadienne des Sciences Religieuses at Laval University, Quebec City, Quebec, May 28th to 30th, 1976. This seminar served the important function of bringing together the majority of the Canadian scholars who specialize in Indian Philosophy and Religion. The topic, Language was chosen a year earlier so that advance study on a common theme could be undertaken by all who participated. Some thirty professors, as well as a few senior graduate students, engaged in the discussion. An additional and important feature of the seminar was that since it was held during the Learned Societies meetings, a number of Western scholars with an interest in language were able to listen in to the thinking of their Eastern colleagues. This provided the basis for some interesting and informed dialogue.

Book excerpt: Tantra means techniques. It also means procedure for law of attraction. Our Ancient Masters were aware how we create our life experiences. They were also aware that if we follow our mind and our actions in a set structure, we can attract desired results in every aspect of our life.There are two paths to Tantra. Vama Marg the left path which combines sexual life with Tantra practices. Dakshin Marg that is the right path of Tantra without sexual enactment. In the processes through this book, we are learning the Dakshin Marg of Tantra by using our own inner power for manifesting desired results.These processes of Tantra will incudes mantra, yantra and meditation practices. These methods of Tantra are divined in to six types. 1) Shanti Tantra 2) Vashikaran Tantra 3) Sthambhan Tantra 4) Ucchatan Tantra 5) Vidhveshan Tantra 6) Maran Tantra. Out of these, this book will teach first five types of Tantra. We don't teach Maran Tantra.In this modern-day society, the methods of Tantra are considered as very mystical, secretive or harmful. This book will clear all your misconceptions about Tantra. Tantra is very pure and divine. There is no negativity or negative effects for the practitioner. Tantra is the most positive blessing in our life. It is given as a gift of the divine through Indian Spiritual Masters for the benefits of mankind.Those people who have knowingly or unknowingly used these methods of Tantra are those people who are higher in positions, in Government, in business, in movies, in politics. They are a lot of powerful people, who are using these techniques for growth in life.What is Mantra: Mantra means the intentions in your mind. Mantra is not necessarily words of Sanskrit, Mantra is the thought that we hold in our consciousness while thinking, talking, desiring, feeling, asking or working. In every moment of time there is something going on endlessly in our mind. Abundance and lack, pain and pleasure, joy or sorrow is created by what is happening within us all the time.Tantra alters our inner world in such a way that we create only positive aspects in our mind. Outer world is a mirror reflection of inner world. By making positive changes inside, we create positive results outside.Mantra is also sound that we create. Shiva explains in Vigyan Bhairav Tantra that whenever I want to create anything in this universe, I send my energy through sound vibrations and it gets created in physical reality. Based on this principle, if we also create specific sound vibrations. We can also create desired results in physical life.Mantra means repetition. Uttering mantra with repetition enables desired creations in short period of time. The only condition that is applied on us is that mantra with intentions manifests. If the mantra is chanted with negative intension, more negativity will be attracted. Chanting mantra with positive intension is the secret to creating abundance, love, joy and health.Mantra should be chanted joyfully. If you enjoy the process of chanting mantra, you will create only positive results.What is Yantra: Yantra means the machine or tools to invoke positive power from the universe. Yantra is combination of geometry, shapes, symbols and numbers. Based on our interest and purpose we can either use the standard yantra suggested by master's or we can design as per our needs.Various types of Yantra are given for various types of desires. There are techniques to energize the Yantra. When we energize the Yantra, it will draw or pull cosmic energy in our environment. This energy is enabling us to attract and manifest powerful results.Four pillars of Tantra: As per Tantra there are four powers of attraction within us. The final process of Tantra integrates all four powers in attraction.Our four powers are 1) Power of focused concentration 2) Power of words (Sound) 3) Power of emotions 4) Power of Kundalini (Energy). We will learn to enhance all four powers for attracti

Download or read book Principles of Tantra written by Sir John Woodroffe and published by Motilal Banarsidass. This book was released on 2014-01-01 with total page 967 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work is a defense of the Tantra, of which Sastra the author is an adherent and a polemic, undertaken in the interests of Hindu orthodoxy in its Sakta and Tantrika form against secularism on the one hand, and on the other the religious eclecticism and various reforming movements, of which, when the book was first written, the Brahmasamaj was a leading type. In fact, in parts the book reads like an orthodox Catholic protest against modernism and is thus interesting as showing how many fundamental principles are common to all orthdox forms of belief, whether of West or of East. The author of the Tantratattva (on which this translation is based)is a well-known Tantrik Pandit, preacher, and secretary of the Sarvamgalasabha of Benares, who knew no English. His work, which is written in Bengali, may therefore be taken to be an accurate popular statement of modern orthodox views on the subject treated by him. The word Tattva is a very comprehensive one, which is by no means always easy to translate. The author has rendered the title of the book as Principles of Tantra, though, may be, it should be Subjects of Tantra. The work deals with chosen topics of Tantra. This, however, also involves a statement of certain fundamental principles which govern Sastrik teaching on the subjects dealt with, and this as well as the contents of possible future volumes must be the justification for giving the book ambitious title.
