Download or read book An Illustrated History of the Mandala written by Kimiaki Tanaka and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-12-04 with total page 681 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Everyone’s heard of mandalas; now we have a uniquely rich history and explanation of their history and meaning. This book is a history of the genesis and development of the mandala from the fifth and sixth centuries, when the mandala first appeared in India, to the eleventh century, when the Kalacakratantra appeared just before the disappearance of Buddhism in India. The 600 years of Indian esoteric Buddhism that concluded the 1,700-year history of Indian Buddhism could be said to have been the history of the development of the mandala. (The Kalacakratantra integrated earlier mandala theories into a single system and established a monumental system unprecedented in the history of esoteric Buddhism. It was thus the culmination of the development of Indian Buddhism over a period of 1,700 years.) The analysis is at the micro level and includes numerous illustrations and charts. Particular attention is paid to proper names, mudras, and mantras that have been overlooked by scholars in philosophy and doctrine, and the author tackles issues that cannot be explained solely from a historical viewpoint, such as geometric patterns, the arrangement of deities, the colors, and their meaning in Buddhist doctrine.
Download or read book Prajapatiyagam The Crucifi xion written by Translated by Dr. Michael Puthenthara and published by D C Books. This book was released on 2013-07-31 with total page 153 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Centuries ago Vedas and Upanishads had recorded many times hints regarding a Prajapathi who would be the liberator. These hints were neither gathered together nor collated to comprehend their true significance, much less explain it to the common people. Prajapthiyagam, the Crucifixion by Dr. Koshy Abraham conclusively affirms the true identity of Prajapathi. Quoting many clear and strong indications from Vedic literature as evidence, the author establishes without any doubt where exactly the real Prajapathiyagam took place. He has interpreted in a logically well knit and scholarly fashion the reputed hymn 'Purushasukta' of Rg Veda. He substantiates that the Prajapathi sought by the sages in the Vedas is in reality CHRIST and that Prajapathiyagam become an historical event in the crucifixion of Jeus Christ.

Download or read book Domestic Mandala written by John Gray and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-03-02 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rich and fascinating ethnography of domestic architecture and activities among the high caste Chhetris of Kholagaun in Nepal, this book focuses on the spatial organization, everyday activities and ritual performances that generate and display Chhetri houses as 'mandalas', sacred diagrams that are both maps of the cosmos and machines for revelation. Describing the orientation and layout of the Chhetri house and surrounding compound; it shows how the orientation and distribution of everyday social activities with the domestic mandala shape people's experience of the enigmas of their lifeworld as householders; and analyses the double significance of rituals that take place in the domestic mandala. By treating the Nepali house as more than just the background of people's everyday life, the author reveals the Chhetri everyday lifeworld as a revelation of Hindu tantric cosmology, its enigmatic illusion, and the path to liberation from it. The themes addressed in the book make a unique contribution to the fields of anthropology, architecture and human geography.
Download or read book Ma alas in the Making written by Michelle C. Wang and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2017-12-18 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first scholarly monograph on Buddhist maṇḍalas in China, this book examines the Maṇḍala of Eight Great Bodhisattvas. This iconographic template, in which a central Buddha is flanked by eight attendants, flourished during the Tibetan (786–848) and post-Tibetan Guiyijun (848–1036) periods at Dunhuang. A rare motif that appears in only four cave shrines at the Mogao and Yulin sites, the maṇḍala bore associations with political authority and received patronage from local rulers. Attending to the historical and cultural contexts surrounding this iconography, this book demonstrates that transcultural communication over the Silk Routes during this period, and the religious dialogue between the Chinese and Tibetan communities, were defining characteristics of the visual language of Buddhist maṇḍalas at Dunhuang.
