  • Author : Praveena Rajkobal
  • Publisher : Routledge
  • Release : 2019-11-05
  • ISBN : 1000740854
  • Pages : 322 pages

Download or read book The Sarvodaya Movement written by Praveena Rajkobal and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-11-05 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an important case study of how local cultures, religions and spiritualities can enhance development activities, and provide helpful frameworks for contemporary societies facing the pressures of neo-liberalism. It specifically traces how the influential Sri Lankan Sarvodaya Movement has deployed concepts of spirituality-based holistic development to help local communities with post-tsunami reconstruction and redevelopment. Throughout, the author provides a Three-Sphere conceptualisation of holistic sustainable development, focused on Culture, Economics and Power, slightly revising Sarvodaya’s Three-Sphere model comprising Spirituality, Economics and Power. The author contends that the success of holistic development, including risk governance, is largely contingent on an awareness of the interdependency of these three spheres, and establishing equitable partnerships between communities, NGOs, INGOs, States and the private sector. Overall, this book argues that religion, spirituality and non-religious worldviews play an important role among other resources concerned with how to survive the pressures of neo-liberalism and environmental risks and crises. The Sarvodaya Movement, which draws on Buddhist concepts of spirituality, is widely acknowledged as an important example of spirituality and community-driven development, and as such, this book will be of interest to scholars of Development and Humanitarian Studies, Religious Studies and South Asian Studies.

Book The Relevance of Gandhiji s Sarvodaya  Education and Vedanta Philosophy in Modern Era

Download or read book The Relevance of Gandhiji s Sarvodaya Education and Vedanta Philosophy in Modern Era written by A. V. Krishna Rao and published by . This book was released on 2019-05-15 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2018 in the subject Philosophy - Miscellaneous, grade: A, Trinity International University (College of Arts), course: Doctoral, language: English, abstract: The present research examines the Relevance of Gandhiji's Sarvodaya, Education and Vedanta Philosophy in Modern Era. An attempt has here been made to present the thoughts and writing regarding Sarvodaya and Education in such a way, so that the reader may see himself the evolution of Gandhi's ideas and philosophy in a straight way. The nationalist movement in India like all nationalist movement was essential a bourgeois movement led by Mahatma Gandhi and Vinoba Bhave for realizing the ideal of Sarvodaya - the all round development, upliftment of all. Gandhi's ideas in regard to new education did not of course, suddenly emerge from his brain in 1937, but were the outcome of long years of sustained thought and experience. Vedanta is one of the six classical systems of Indian philosophy. The term "Vedanta" has the literal meaning "the end of the Veda" and refers both to the teaching of the Upanishads, which constitute the last section of the Veda, and to the knowledge of its ultimate meaning. By extension it is the name given to those philosophical schools that base themselves on the Brahma Sutras (also called the Vedanta Sutras) of Badarayana (early centuries AD), which summarize the Upanishadic doctrine. The best known and most influential of the schools of Vedanta is that of Shankara, known as the nondualist or advaita Vedanta. Shankara attempted to show that the teaching of the Upanishads was a self-consistent whole. According to Shankara, the ultimate reality is Brahman or the Self, which is pure reality, pure consciousness, and pure bliss.

Book Gandhi   s Dharma

  • Publisher : Oxford University Press
  • Release : 2017-09-25
  • ISBN : 0199091587
  • Pages : 405 pages

Download or read book Gandhi s Dharma written by Koneru Ramakrishna Rao and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2017-09-25 with total page 405 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When asked about his message to the world, the Mahatma famously said, ‘My life is my message.’ In him there was no room for contradiction between thought and action. His life in its totality is a series of experiments to convert dharma, moral principles, into karma, practices in action. Gandhi believed that development is a dialectical process stemming from the antinomy of two aspects latent within every individual—the brute and the divine. While the former represents instinct-driven behaviour, the latter is one’s true self, which is altruistic. Gandhi described this process in different fields, most of which are relevant even today. Gandhi’s Dharma is an overview of Mahatma Gandhi—his person, philosophy, and practices. The author asserts that the basic principles governing Gandhi’s thoughts—satya, ahimsa, and sarvodaya—are not relics of the past. Nor are his thoughts an obsolete list of rules. Gandhi’s ideas are dynamic principles perpetually in the making, perfectly adaptable to contemporary life.

Book Gandhi in Political Theory

Download or read book Gandhi in Political Theory written by Anuradha Veeravalli and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-15 with total page 275 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Can Gandhi be considered a systematic thinker? While the significance of Gandhi’s thought and life to our times is undeniable it is widely assumed that he did not serve any discipline and cannot be considered a systematic thinker. Despite an overwhelming body of scholarship and literature on his life and thought the presuppositions of Gandhi’s experiments, the systematic nature of his intervention in modern political theory and his method have not previously received sustained attention. Addressing this lacuna, the book contends that Gandhi’s critique of modern civilization, the presuppositions of post-Enlightenment political theory and their epistemological and metaphysical foundations is both comprehensive and systematic. Gandhi’s experiments with truth in the political arena during the Indian Independence movement are studied from the point of view of his conscious engagement with method and theory rather than merely as a personal creed, spiritual position or moral commitment. The author shows how Gandhi’s experiments are illustrative of his theoretical position, and how they form the basis of his opposition to the foundations of modern western political theory and the presuppositions of the modern nation state besides envisioning the foundations of an alternative modernity for India, and by its example, for the world.

Book Tracing Gandhi

  • Author : Samir Banerjee
  • Publisher : Taylor & Francis
  • Release : 2019-06-28
  • ISBN : 1000084752
  • Pages : 330 pages

Download or read book Tracing Gandhi written by Samir Banerjee and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2019-06-28 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book traces the journey of Mahatma Gandhi, from being a simple and truth-seeking human being, a satyarthi, to a committed, conscious and social human being, a satyagrahi. It specifically looks at this critical transformation during the time Gandhi was in South Africa. The central argument of the book is that Gandhi evolved from being a satyarthi to a satyagrahi in South Africa. Subsequently in India, he consolidated his orientation with an emphasis on praxis, by developing his ideas as instruments for social and individual struggles. Marked by a series of events, this period was an intense quest of self-realization and understanding, and shows his journey from being Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi to being Mahatma Gandhi. The book discusses various elements of Gandhian thought and praxis – morality, wisdom, non-violence, truth, social justice, dharma, trusteeship, education, sarvodaya, Hind Swaraj, swadeshi, and social service – and interprets the relevance of Gandhi’s thought in the modern world by highlighting its unique significance for social transformation and change. Lucid and accessible, the book will be useful to scholars and researchers of Gandhi studies, Indian political thought, modern Indian history, and political studies.

Book Mahatma Gandhi and His Philosophy

Download or read book Mahatma Gandhi and His Philosophy written by B. M. Sharma and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an attempt to comprehend Mahatma Gandhi's philosophy and life. It presents his life, parentage, and childhood in order to discuss the formative phases of his early life, which helped shape his public life later. Author B.M. Sharma explores his efforts at establishing Ashrams, which were the training institutes to prepare Satyagrahis. The author shows Gandhi as an organizer, and explains his worldview on society and the future of society in the East and the West. Along with this study of his past, the 'Sarvodya Samaj' of Gandhi has been put in a theoretical perspective and included here. Gandhi's variegated political philosophy is examined in a national and international context. This book further elucidates how a secularist could be religious in the Gandhian way. The book investigates the Gandhian concept of 'Gram Swaraj' and how Panchayati institutions can be revitalized without a harmful impact on caste and crude power. The Gandhian credo of truth, non-violence, Sarvodaya, Satyagrah, and Gram Swarajya in the overall context of multiple challenges of the millennium is also evaluated. An analysis of contemporary trends of liberalisation, privatisation, and globalisation in the light of trusteeship and Swadeshi doctrines, along with their dynamism and relevance for the world society, are included.

Book Ecology Is Permanent Economy

  • Publisher : State University of New York Press
  • Release : 2013-06-20
  • ISBN : 1438446748
  • Pages : 281 pages

Download or read book Ecology Is Permanent Economy written by George Alfred James and published by State University of New York Press. This book was released on 2013-06-20 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For decades, Sunderlal Bahuguna has been an environmental activist in his native India, well known for his efforts on behalf of the Himalayas and its people. In the 1970s, he was instrumental in the successful Chipko (or "hug") movement during which local people hugged trees to prevent logging for outside concerns. He was also a leader of the long opposition to the Tehri Dam. In both conflicts, the interests of outsiders threatened the interests of local people living relatively traditional lives. George Alfred James introduces Sunderlal Bahuguna's activism and philosophy in a work based on interviews with Bahuguna himself, his writings, and journalistic accounts. James writes that Bahuguna's work in the Indian independence movement and his admiration for the nonviolence of Gandhi has inspired a vision and mode of activism that deserves wider attention. It is a philosophy that does not try to win the conflict, but to win the opponent's heart.
