Book excerpt: Do you ever feel a hunger to realize your spiritual potential? Do the demands of your life derail your hopes and dreams?

Book The     rama System

Download or read book The rama System written by Patrick Olivelle and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1993 with total page 289 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The lesser known and explored of the two pillars of Hinduism--Ä Å›rama and vará1‡a--Ä Å›rama is the name given to a system of four distinct and legitimate ways of leading a religious life: as a celibate student, a married householder, a forest hermit, and a world renouncer. In this, the first full-length study of the Ä Å›rama system, Olivelle uncovers its origin and traces its subsequent history. He examines in depth its relationship to other institutional and doctrinal aspects of the Brahmanical world and its position within Brahmanical theology, and assesses its significance within the history of Indian religion. Throughout, he argues that the Ä Å›rama system is primarily a theological construct and that the system and its history should be carefully distinguished from the socio-religious institutions comprehended by the system and from their respective histories.

Download or read book G rhastha written by Patrick Olivelle and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2019-07-11 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For scholars of ancient Indian religions, the wandering mendicants who left home and family for a celibate life and the search for liberation represent an enigma. The Vedic religion, centered on the married household, had no place for such a figure. Much has been written about the Indian ascetic but hardly any scholarly attention has been paid to the married householder with wife and children, generally referred to in Sanskrit as grhastha: "the stay-at-home." The institution of the householder is viewed implicitly as posing little historical problems with regard to its origin or meaning. This volume problematizes the figure of the householder within ancient Indian culture and religion. It shows that the term grhastha is a neologism and is understandable only in its opposition to the ascetic who goes away from home (pravrajita). Through a thorough and comprehensive analysis of a wide range of inscriptions and texts, ranging from the Vedas, Dharmasastras, Epics, and belle lettres to Buddhist and Jain texts and texts on governance and erotics, this volume analyses the meanings, functions, and roles of the householder from the earliest times unti about the fifth century CE. The central finding of these studies is that the householder bearing the name grhastha is not simply a married man with a family but someone dedicated to the same or similar goals as an ascetic while remaining at home and performing the economic and ritual duties incumbent on him. The grhastha is thus not a generic householder, for whom there are many other Sanskrit terms, but a religiously charged concept that is intended as a full-fledged and even superior alternative to the concept of a religious renouncer.

Book From Church House to Main Street  Volume 2

Download or read book From Church House to Main Street Volume 2 written by Edward Wayne Kimbrough and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2020-06-29 with total page 606 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The express purpose of this book is to provide concrete evidence that the Bible is not just a religious book; it is a scientific book that teaches us how the universe was created; it is a social book that teaches us how to live peaceably with our neighbors; it is a prophetic and historical book that reveals how God has worked in the past to fulfill His promises and purposes; and it is a spiritual book that teaches how God has revealed his will and purpose for humanity. The book is divided into five volumes which deal with questions that we might ask about the Bible and the origin of the universe. The first four volumes of the book deal with the four dimensions of the Bible. Volume 1 deals with the Physical (Scientific) Dimension of the Bible. It seeks to answer the questions: How did we get here? How old is the universe? And who are our Ancestors? Volume 2 deals with the Spiritual Dimension of the Bible and seeks to find Universal Principles from God’s Word that teach us how to live according to God’s will. Volume 3 deals with the Prophetic Dimension of the Bible. It provides a historical record of how God has worked through the Nation of Israel to pre-determine the events and conditions of life and judged the nation’s responses to the events and conditions of life. Volume 4 deals with the Social Dimension of the Bible. It defines the four social institutions created by God: the family, human government, the Nation of Israel, and the Church, and describes how the Universal Principles discovered in Volume 2 may be or have been applied in those four social institutions. Volume 5 summarizes the bottom-line conclusions and recommendations from the scientific analysis of the four dimensions of the Bible, and it defines the meaning of the symbols that are used to represent the Universal Principles.

Book excerpt: After Watchman Nee resumed his ministry in 1948, he fellowshipped several times with the brothers about the critical need to provide believers with a spiritual education.

  • Release : 2017-05-08
  • ISBN : 3110460440

Download or read book Ze enah U Re enah written by Morris M. Faierstein and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2017-05-08 with total page 1292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is the first scholarly English translation of the Ze’enah U-Re’enah, a Jewish classic originally published in the beginning of the seventeenth century, and was the first significant anthological commentary on the Torah, Haftorot and five Megillot. The Ze’enah U-Re’enah is a major text that was talked about but has not adequately studied, although it has been published in two hundred and seventy-four editions, including the Yiddish text and partial translation into several languages. Many generations of Jewish men and women have studied the Torah through the Rabbinic and medieval commentaries that the author of the Ze’enah U-Re’enah collected and translated in his work. It shaped their understanding of Jewish traditions and the lives of Biblical heroes and heroines. The Ze’enah U-Re’enah can teach us much about the influence of biblical commentaries, popular Jewish theology, folkways, and religious practices. This translation is based on the earliest editions of the Ze’enah U-Re’enah, and the notes annotate the primary sources utilized by the author.

Book The Transformation of Judaism

Download or read book The Transformation of Judaism written by Jacob Neusner and published by University Press of America. This book was released on 2011-03-31 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jacob Neusner describes, analyzes, and interprets the transformation of one system of the Israelite social order by a connected but autonomous successor-system. He characterizes the successive systems classifying the one as philosophical and the other as religious. He explains the categorical account of each and sets forth the outcome of a number of topical studies on the category-formations of Rabbinic Judaism with special attention to the social order: politics, philosophy, and economics. These systems emerged as [1] autonomous when viewed synchronically, [2] connected when seen diachronically, and [3] as a continuous construction when seen at the end of their formative age. In their successive stages of categorical autonomy, connection, and finally continuity, the three distinct systems may be classified, respectively, as philosophical, religious, and theological, each one taking over and revising the definitive categories of the former and framing its own fresh, generative categories as well. The formative history of Judaism is the story of the presentations and re-presentations of categorical structures. In method, it is the exegesis of taxonomy and taxic systems. Now, after more than two decades, Neusner has decided to review the initial statement. Since the book summarizes ten years of work, from 1980 to 1990, on the Rabbinic category formations of social science politics, philosophy, and economics in the setting of the law and theology of Rabbinic Judaism from the Mishnah through the Bavli, 200-600 C.E., it seemed well worth the effort to recapitulate the original work. The revised introduction explains the omission of theology in his category-formation philosophy-religion-theology; Neusner's account of the Bavli produced the decade after this title was completed did not make possible the continuous description of the unfolding of the Rabbinic system. The pattern that appealed to Neusner from philosophy to religion to theology has not yet come to a satisfactory account. In the twenty years of work on the third layer of the canon up to the Bavli, a series of monographs clarified the theological system that sustained Rabbinic Judaism.
