Book Synopsis Worshipping Shiva by : Anand Ramachandran
Download or read book Worshipping Shiva written by Anand Ramachandran and published by . This book was released on 2020-10-29 with total page 408 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hindu pantheon of Gods, comprising of Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva, is canonically considered as the foundation to the study of Sanathana Dharma. Worshipping Shiva demystifies the various practices that are observed in the veneration of Lord Shiva through a compilation of Puranic tales dedicated around these three Gods focussed on themes of Creation, Preservation and Destruction. Among them, Shiva with Parvati stands out as the most enigmatic God, represented by the iconic Shivalingam. The awe-inspiring and enchanting divinities of Kartikeya, Ganesha and Sastha to bring a serene world-order has made them household deities. Shiva has taken various manifestations such as Kirathamoorthy, Kaal Bhairav, Ardhanarishwar, Gangadharan, Sharabeshwaran, Gajasamharamoorthy and Kaalasamharamoorthy to protect his devotees. Jyotirlingam and the Panchabootha Lingam Temples, with their grand austere shrines and ornate edifices, provide the devotee a forum to seek the divine blessings of Lord Shiva. These divine temples, Kailash Manasarovar and Amarnath Cave yatra are extensively detailed in the book. Performing puja is the source of peace and an integral part of faith for a devout Hindu. The book contains the detailed procedure to perform Rudrabhishekam Puja.
Book Synopsis Worshiping Siva and Buddha by : Ann R. Kinney
Download or read book Worshiping Siva and Buddha written by Ann R. Kinney and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 664 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Temple Art of East Java, a study of the temples created in East Java between the tenth and sixteenth centuries, fills an important scholarly lacuna. The arts of Central Java, home of the great Buddhist monument, Borobudur, and Hindu Prambanan, have been given thorough scholarly attention. The architectural and sculptural treasures of the East Javanese kingdoms of Kadiri, Singasari, and Majapahit, are little known in comparison, yet beautiful and significant in Indonesian history. The author presents the major sites of these three historical periods, and discusses their architecture and sculpture. The many narrative reliefs illustrating sacred and secular literature have been painstakingly identified. The reader is thus able to follow their stories and understand where, why, and how they fit into the visual program planned for each temple and their relation to historical events and the wayang theater. These descriptions are augmented by extensive site summaries. Superb color photography supports the text throughout and is a major contribution in itself. The book contains a wealth of information that is not available all together in any other publication. Not only are the descriptions of the monuments valuable but the author identifies numerous sculptures in collections around the world that were once associated with the East Javanese temples discussed. The attempted reconstruction of sculptural programs at the sites is extremely important. To understand an ancient Javanese stone sculpture, knowledge of its original cultural context is required rather than its current location on a stand in some museum. Today, with the number of fakes appearing on the art market, such associations are invaluable for dating and authenticating stone sculpture said to come from unidentified East Javanese sites. The Temple Art of East Java is a welcome and significant addition not only to Javanese studies but also to architecture, art history, comparative religion, Buddhist, Hindu, and Southeast Asian studies generally.

Book Synopsis Worshiping Śiva in Medieval India by : Richard H. Davis
Download or read book Worshiping Śiva in Medieval India written by Richard H. Davis and published by Motilal Banarsidass Publ.. This book was released on 2000 with total page 230 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 that world and acts within it. 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 cosmic Saiva philosophy the cyclic pattern of 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 interrelated modalities of the unitary power of consciousness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lord Shiva, the most mystical and enigmatic deity of the Vedic pantheon, remains the most popular and yet, the least understood personality. From being the destroyer to the most compassionate, being the personification of anger to the one who is easily pleased, living a life of complete detachment from the material to blessing his worshipers with material opulence, he remains a perfect puzzle to most. Lord Shiva is often depicted in deep meditation, symbolizing transcendence and inner peace. With his third eye, he represents wisdom and insight, capable of both annihilating ignorance and bestowing enlightenment. As the lord of renunciation, he challenges devotees to transcend worldly attachments and embrace spiritual ascension. Yet, he is also the benevolent protector, offering solace and guidance to those in need. This book explores the side of Shiva that is completely hidden from us, giving us a deeper insight into the unexplored personality that he is.
