Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The novelty of this book consists of the fact that it introduces the reader to the basic tenets of Advaita Vedanta in three independent but complementary ways: scripturally, rationally and experientially. All the three elements are usually found intertwined in accounts of Advaita Vedanta. They are presented distinctly here in the hope that each perspective will enrich one`s understanding of Advaita Vedanta as a whole and also allow the reader to form his or her own opinion about the relative merits of each approach.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive exposition of Vedanta Desika`s Satadusani, a polemical classic of Visistadvaita Vedanta, devoted to the criticism of the doctrines of Advaita Vedanta. The thought-provoking arguments found in the Sixty-six Vedas of the original text are brought together, analysed and discussed in a systematic manner under eight broad headings: Pramanas Perception; Consciousness; Individual self; Brahman; Universe; Avidya; Sadhana and Mukti.In presenting the dialectics of Vedanta Desika in a vigorous and scholastic form the author deals with numerous issues that the Vadas raise--epistemological, ontological, religious, and ethical. Thought the issues are many, each discussing a specific problem, they are ultimately directed to refute the central doctrine of Advaita, viz., that Brahman which is pure consciousness devoid of all determinations, constitutes the sole Reality and every thing else is illusory. While carefully tracing the fundamental differences between the two systems of Vedanta, he points out that the differences are mostly due to the difference in the stand-points they adopt.Faithfully conforming to the original in letter and spirit, this work will serve as a useful introduction to the study of the Sribhasya of Ramanuja. A distincy contribution to the study of classical Hindu thought, this book should be of interest to students of Philosophy in general and Vedanta in particular.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: भय से मुक्त हो कर अपूर्व जीवन के फूल खिलते हैं। भय से दबे रह कर सब जीवन की कलियां बिन खिली रह जाती हैं, पंखुड़ियां खिलती ही नहीं। भय तो जड़ कर जाता है। तो मैं जानता हूं तुम्हारी तकलीफ। लेकिन तुम भय से बचने के लिए उत्सुक हो तो कभी न बच पाओगे। मैं तुमसे कहता हूं भय को जानो, देखो- है; जीवन का हिस्सा है। आंख गड़ा कर भय को देखो, साक्षात्कार करो। जैसे-जैसे तुम्हारी आंख खुलने लगेगी और भय को तुम ठीक से देखने लगोगे, पहचानने लगोगे- कहां से भय पैदा होता है- उतना ही उतना भय विसर्जित होने लगेगा, दूर हटने लगेगा। और एक ऐसी घड़ी आती है अभय की, जब कोई भय नहीं रह जाता। मृत्यु तो रहेगी, शरीर मरेगा, मन बदलेगा, सब होता रहेगा, लेकिन तुम्हारे अंतस्तल में कुछ है शाश्वत-सनातन छिपा, जिसकी कोई मृत्यु नहीं। उसका थोड़ा स्वाद लो। साक्षी में उसका स्वाद मिलेगा। उसके स्वाद पर ही भय विसर्जित होता है। और कोई उपाय नहीं है।

Download or read book The Advaita Worldview written by Anantanand Rambachan and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2012-02-01 with total page 160 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 2007 CHOICE Outstanding Academic Title In this book, Anantanand Rambachan offers a fresh and detailed perspective on Advaita Vedanta, Hinduism's most influential and revered religious tradition. Rambachan, who is both a scholar and an Advaitin, attends closely to the Upanisads and authentic commentaries of Sankara to challenge the tradition and to reconsider central aspects of its current teachings. His reconstruction and reinterpretation of Advaita focuses in particular on the nature of brahman, the status of the world in relation to brahman, and the meaning and relevance of liberation. Rambachan queries contemporary representations of an impersonal brahman and the need for popular, hierarchical distinctions such as those between a higher (para) and lower (apara) brahman. Such distinctions, Rambachan argues, are inconsistent with the non-dual nature of brahman and are unnecessary when brahman's relationship with the world is correctly understood. Questioning Advaita's traditional emphasis on renunciation and world-denial, Rambachan expands the understanding of suffering (duhkha) and liberation (moksa) and addresses socioeconomic as well as gender and caste inequalities. Positing that the world is a celebrative expression of God's fullness, this book advances Advaita as a universal and uninhibited path to a liberated life committed to compassion, equality, and justice.

Download or read book Samkara s Advaita Vedanta written by Jacqueline G. Suthren Hirst and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2005-03-31 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Samkara (c.700 CE) has been regarded by many as the most authoritative Hindu thinker of all time. A great Indian Vedantin brahmin, Samkara was primarily a commentator on the sacred texts of the Vedas and a teacher in the Advaitin teaching line. This book serves as an introduction to Samkara's thought which takes this as a central theme. The author develops an innovative approach based on Samkara's ways of interpreting sacred texts and creatively examines the profound interrelationship between sacred text, content and method in Samkara's thought. The main focus of the book is on Samkara's teaching method. This method is, for Samkara, based on the Upanishads' own; it is to be employed by Advaitin teachers to draw pupils skilfully towards that realisation which is beyond all words. Consequently, this book will be of interest not only to students and scholars of Indian philosophy, but to all those interested in the relation between language and that which is held to transcend it.

Download or read book The Book of One written by Dennis Waite and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2010-05-11 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A comprehensive, yet entertaining introduction to Advaita, the non-dual philosophy which provides a completely reasonable explanation for who we are and the nature of the universe. There are many self-help approaches promising enlightenment and happiness but most are illogical and lack any proven capability. Advaita has a guru-disciple tradition stretching back for several thousand years and can guarantee the sincere seeker a progressive path to self-realization. A 21st Century treatment of this ancient eastern philosophy, this book addresses all of the issues that are covered by both traditional teachers from the lineage of Shankara and by modern satsang teaching and Direct Path methods stemming from Ramana Maharshi and Krishna Menon. Topics are explained in an accessible and readable manner, using amusing quotations and stories along with an abundance of metaphors from a wide variety of sources.
