Book Synopsis Vedanta without Maya? by : Godabarisha Mishra
Download or read book Vedanta without Maya? written by Godabarisha Mishra and published by Motilal Banarsidass. This book was released on 2015-01-01 with total page 378 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Saptavidha-anupapatti represents a live-debate in the traditions of Vedanta initiated by Ramanujacarya. The central issue of this debate is to examine whether maya-avidya, postulated by Advaita-vedant, is philosophically sustainable, logically viable, and experientially reliable. While Sankara builds up the superstructure of Advaita on the basis of this concept, Ramanuja vociferously reacts to its philosophical ingenuity. This dispute between the Advaita and Visistadvaita schools with seven objections, which forms the manor theme of this book, has been going on for more than a millennium and is alive even today among Vedanta scholars. The volume contains, besides historical as well as philosophical explorations of the concept of maya-avidya, the arguments and counter arguments, formulation and counter-formulation to accommodate and reject the corresponding philosophical predilections of both the above schools by some of the preeminent philosophical minds of Indian philosophy of our times.

Book Synopsis The Doctrine of Maya by : Prabhu Dutt Shastri
Download or read book The Doctrine of Maya written by Prabhu Dutt Shastri and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-12 with total page 154 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Doctrine of Maya: In the Philosophy of the Vedanta is author Prabhu Dutt Shastri's work examining the Upanishads. A particularly talented writer, Shastri was a religious scholar who taught at universities across the world and was a research scholar with the Government of India. The book opens with a brief preface from the author before diving into the subject matter. Chapter one is the author's introduction to the concept of Maya. Shastri begins at the most obvious starting point, which is laying out at definitive definition of the word Maya, a term that is frequently misunderstood. Having established this definition, the author proceeds to an examination of the concept of the doctrine of Maya. The author's central thesis is that the idea of Maya far predates the naming of the doctrine. Shastri examines the text of the Rig Veda and the Upanishads to build this argument. The final chapter of the book is devoted to responding to objections to the doctrine of Maya. The author selects several prominent arguments opposing the doctrine and attempts to correct the misunderstandings present in these disagreements. The Doctrine of Maya is a relatively brief and surprisingly readable treatment of the subject matter. Shastri's prose is simple and elegant. He writes with a definitive voice that guides the reader to a deeper understanding of the subject matter. Religious studies students and scholars, as well as anybody interested in Vedic philosophy, will likely find this to be an illuminating and educational read. Prabhu Dutt Shastri's The Doctrine of Maya: In the Philosophy of the Vedanta is a tremendous addition to anybody's library of religious, spiritual, and philosophical texts. It is a concise examination of Maya that will only serve to expand the reader's knowledge of the subject while providing some potentially unexpected entertainment.

Download or read book Advaita Vedānta written by Eliot Deutsch and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advaita Vedānta is the most important philosophical system in India. It involves a discipline of spiritual experience as well as a technical philosophy, and since the time of Samkara in the ninth century some of the greatest intellects in India have contributed to its development. In his reconstruction of Advaita Vedānta, Eliot Deutsch has lifted the system out of its historical/cultural context and has concentrated attention on those ideas which have enduring philosophical value. He has sought to formulate systematically one's understanding of what is of universal philosophical interest in Vedantic thought. Professor Deutsch's work covers the basic metaphysical, epistemological, and ethical ideas of Vedānta. Students and scholars of Western as well as of Indian philosophy will be interested in the lucid, organized manner in which the material is presented and in the fresh interpretations given. The book is written in a critical rather than simply "pious" spirit and should thus also be of interest to anyone interested in deepening his or her appreciation and understanding of the richness of Indian thought.

Book Synopsis Infinite Paths to Infinite Reality by : Ayon Maharaj
Download or read book Infinite Paths to Infinite Reality written by Ayon Maharaj and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2018-10-08 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sri Ramakrishna is widely known as a nineteenth-century Indian mystic who affirmed the harmony of all religions on the basis of his richly varied spiritual experiences and eclectic religious practices, both Hindu and non-Hindu. In Infinite Paths to Infinite Reality, Ayon Maharaj argues that Sri Ramakrishna was also a sophisticated philosopher of great contemporary relevance. Through a careful study of Sri Ramakrishna's recorded oral teachings in the original Bengali, Maharaj reconstructs his philosophical positions and analyzes them from a cross-cultural perspective. Sri Ramakrishna's spiritual journey culminated in the exalted state of "vijñana," his term for the "intimate knowledge" of God as the Infinite Reality that is both personal and impersonal, with and without form, immanent in the universe and beyond it. This expansive spiritual standpoint of vijñana, Maharaj contends, opens up a new paradigm for addressing central issues in cross-cultural philosophy of religion, including divine infinitude, religious pluralism, mystical experience, and the problem of evil. Sri Ramakrishna's vijñana-based religious pluralism--when grasped in all its subtlety--proves to have major philosophical advantages over dominant Western models. Moreover, his mystical testimony and teachings not only cut across long-standing debates about the nature of mystical experience but also bolster recent defenses of its epistemic value. Maharaj further demonstrates that Sri Ramakrishna's unique response to the problem of evil resonates strongly with Western "soul-making" theodicies and contemporary theories of skeptical theism. A pioneering interdisciplinary study of one of India's most important philosopher-mystics, Maharaj's book is essential reading for scholars and students in philosophy of religion, theology, religious studies, and Hindu studies.
