Book excerpt: ‘Look, my feet measure beyond earth and sky!’ he said and touched the sky. I have surrendered to my lord who glanced at me with his large radiant eyes. The Tiruviruttam is an iconic poem by Nammāḻvār (c. ninth century CE), the greatest of the āḻvār poet-saints of the Tamil Śrīvaiṣṇava tradition. Its hundred interlinked verses celebrate the love between an anonymous heroine and hero, who come to be identified with Nammāḻvār and his beloved deity, Viṣṇu. The poet masterfully weaves the erotic and esoteric to reveal both the contours of love and the never-ending cycles of separation and union, of birth and death, from which only Viṣṇu can offer release. In A Hundred Measures of Time, Archana Venkatesan has crafted a sonorous free-verse rendering and an accompanying far-ranging essay to delight poetry lovers and scholars alike.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A lucid, thorough and fresh exploration of the material. This is an exceedingly helpful study and may be the best single textbook on the subject. Previously, there was little of note in between inadequate introductions to Hindu thought and the more specialized primary or secondary materials. Organ is a competent philosopher and presents the 'Hindu quest' in a scholarly and readable form...it is a key book for undergraduate libraries and would be an invaluable asset in a course which dealt seriously and at any length with the Hindu tradition. Excellent bibliography." --Choice "This is not just another book on Hinduism, but a source of systematic information..." --Bibliography of Philosophy "This scholarly and perceptive account makes Hindu beliefs and practices intelligible by showing how the contradictions which have puzzled Westerners are rooted in Human Diversity." --The Review of Metaphysics

This book was released on 2019-10-28 with total page 323 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We live in an era of unprecedented growth in knowledge. Never before has there been so great an availability of and access to information in both print and online. Yet as opportunities to educate ourselves have greatly increased, our time for reading has significantly diminished. And when we do read, we rarely have the patience to read in the slow, sustained fashion that great books require if we are to be truly transformed by them. In Reading the Hindu and Christian Classics, renowned Harvard Divinity School professor Francis Clooney argues that our increasing inability to read in a concerted manner is particularly notable in the realm of religion, where the proliferation of information detracts from the learning of practices that require slow and patient reading. Although awareness of the world’s many religions is at an all-time high, deep knowledge of the various traditions has suffered. Clooney challenges this trend by considering six classic Hindu and Christian texts dealing with ritual and law, catechesis and doctrine, and devotion and religious participation, showing how, in distinctive ways, such texts instruct, teach truth, and draw willing readers to participate in the realities they are learning. Through readings of these seminal scriptural and theological texts, he reveals the rewards of a more spiritually transformative mode of reading—and how individuals and communities can achieve it.

This book was released on 2013-06-13 with total page 1000 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The envisioned volume is a collection of recent essays about the philosophical exploration, critique and comparison of (a) the major philosophical models of God, gods and other ultimate realities implicit in the world’s philosophical schools and religions, and of (b) the ideas of such models and doing such modeling per se. The aim is to identify exactly what a model of ultimate reality is; create a comprehensive and accessible collection of extant models; and determine how best, philosophically, to model ultimate reality, if possible and desirable.

Download or read book Hinduism and Buddhism (Vol. 1-3) written by Charles Eliot and published by Good Press. This book was released on 2023-12-18 with total page 867 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Charles Eliot's monumental work, 'Hinduism and Buddhism (Vol. 1-3)', is a comprehensive exploration of Eastern spiritual traditions. Through detailed analysis and precise scholarship, Eliot delves into the historical, philosophical, and cultural aspects of Hinduism and Buddhism, providing readers with a deep understanding of these ancient belief systems. His writing is clear and concise, making complex ideas accessible to a wide audience. The book is a valuable resource for students of religion and philosophy, as well as anyone interested in the intersection of spirituality and culture. Eliot's meticulous research and insightful commentary offer a nuanced perspective on the evolution and significance of Hinduism and Buddhism in the global context. This seminal work remains a foundational text in the study of Eastern religions. Charles Eliot, a renowned scholar and diplomat, drew on his extensive knowledge of Asian cultures and languages to write 'Hinduism and Buddhism'. His experiences living in Asia and interacting with practitioners of these faiths informed his nuanced understanding of their teachings and practices. Eliot's background as a colonial administrator in India lent him a unique perspective on the intersections between Eastern spirituality and Western imperialism. I recommend 'Hinduism and Buddhism (Vol. 1-3)' to readers seeking a comprehensive and insightful exploration of Eastern religions. Eliot's meticulous research and engaging writing style make this work a must-read for anyone interested in deepening their understanding of Hinduism, Buddhism, and the broader spiritual traditions of Asia.

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.
