Download or read book Critical Studies in Indian Grammarians I written by Madhav Deshpande and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2020-08-06 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the historical study of the Indian grammarian tradition, a line of demarcation can often be drawn between the conformity of a system with the well-known grammar of Pāṇini and the explanatory effectiveness of that system. One element of Pāṇini’s grammar that scholars have sometimes struggled to bring across this line of demarcation is the theory of homogeneity, or sāvarṇya, which concerns the final consonants in Pāṇini’s reference catalog, as well as phonetic similarities between sounds. While modern Sanskrit scholars understand how to interpret and apply Pāṇini’s homogeneity, they still find it necessary to unravel the history of varying interpretations of the theory in subsequent grammars. Madhav Deshpande’s The Theory of Homogeneity provides a thorough account of the historical development of the theory. Proceeding first to study this conception in the Pāṇinian tradition, Deshpande then passes on to other grammatical systems. Deshpande gives attention not only to the definitions of homogeneity in these systems but also the implementation of the theory in those respective systems. Even where definitions are identical, the concept may be applied quite differently, in which cases Deshpande examines by considering the historical relationships among the various systems.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Indian science of Ayurveda, or "life knowledge" has been practiced unbrokenfor thousands of years, handed down from teacher to student. Ayurveda provides themethod for living a balanced life, for the prevention of disease and pain and for thetreatment of diseases presently thought to be incurable. Unfortunately, during the periodof British occupation of India, traditional arts, including the science of Ayurveda, wereactively discouraged; 'Vaidyas', or accomplished Ayurvedic masters, were persecutedand numerous libraries and schools were burned to the ground. Since that time of foreignoccupation, India and it's culture have slowly been recovering. But the truth is thatAyurveda still remains in a semi-dormant state, a state of hibernation, waiting for thoseearnest and perseverant students who will bring Ayurveda back to it's full capacity.Fortunately there are a few excellent texts which have been preserved from ancient times.The Charaka Samhita is such a text. Recorded several thousand years ago from theteachings of the sage Punarvasu Atreya, it is a gem of practical wisdom which remains tothis day the most respected work on Ayurveda

Download or read book An Introduction to Jyotish written by Sarajit Poddar and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-05-13 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jyotish is the ancient science of deciphering the essential uniformity of principles that guide the celestial bodies and the events in the world. Because of these unified principles, what happens in this world can be deciphered from what happens in the heavenly world. The movement of Grahas or Grahas, as they are called in Sanskrit, provides for a unified language used for deciphering the occurrences of this world, including the matters concerning humans, animals, plants, weather and nations.This is an exciting subject of associating the symbols of nature to the occurrences of mundane events or human affairs; however, it is exceedingly vast. To be able to cover the expansive vistas of this subject, one must undertake a structured approach, which covers several areas of Jyotish, including Ganita, Samhita and Hora. The Ganita deals with the mathematical or astronomical aspect of this subject, the Samhita deals with the mundane elements such as weather forecasting, earthquakes, rainfall etc., and the Hora deals with the judgement of the Kundalis of individuals. This book introduces the subject.

Download or read book The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali written by Raghavan Iyer and published by . This book was released on 2011-11-17 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this book is to bring together in a convenient and coherent form the many HERMES articles written by Prof. Iyer that dealt with this subject. In truth, meditation and self-study represent two sides of one human activity, something analogous to the operation of the systolic and diastolic movements of the human heart. The one is the centrifugal movement of consciousness expanding to Universals beyond the limits of Self; the other is the centripetal movement focusing with laser-like precision upon the particulars within the limits of Self. They represent roughly the sub-principles of Buddhi and Manas acting within the incarnated Manasic principle; for the spiritual aspirant they should - in time - become as natural as breathing in and breathing out. These two aspects of the inbreathing and outbreathing within the neophyte's consciousness are dealt with in the three treatises of The Voice of the Silence, as well as in Prof. Iyer's seminal article, Meditation and Self-Study.
Download or read book Arishtas The Dangers written by Sarajit Poddar and published by Independently Published. This book was released on 2021-10-28 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is about Ariṣṭas or dangers. Ariṣṭas are the suffering caused by the untoward positions of Grahas in our Kuṇḍalī. They are the antithesis of the good yogas, such as Rājayoga and Dhanayogas and are the primary cause of suffering. The volume is structured into the Samaya Doṣas, the Nakṣatra Ariṣṭas, the Gaṇḍānta Janma, Bālāriṣṭa, and danger to parent and child. The Samaya Doṣas are the flaws in time. There are numerous yogas, which indicate the time which is not favourable. The Śāstras detail 21 such yogas, and each of them is explained in detail. The Nakṣatra Ariṣṭa occurs to the child, the parents and the relatives, such as maternal uncles and aunts because of birth in a certain Nakṣatra or its Caraṇa. The next two sections on the Bālāriṣṭa and the danger to parents and children are complex, and I have started with providing the building blocks of such yogas. Applying the yogas becomes relatively easier once the seeker understands these building blocks. I hope that the seekers find this useful and helpful in their journey into the world of Jyotiṣa.
