THE PHILOSOPY OF PANCHARATRA. An Advaitic Approach.

Madras, Ganesh & Co , 1968. 1st edition 136 pp. Pb paper wrappers. Pancharatra was a religious movement in Hinduism that originated in late 1st millennium BCE around the ideas of Narayana and the various avatars of Vishnu as their central deities. The movement later merged with the ancient Bhagavata tradition and contributed to the development of Vaishnavism. This study tries to show that inspite of some of the doctrines which are suggestive of the Vishishtadvaita philosophy, there is an overwhelming evidence in the texts which convincingly indicates the basis advaitic position of the Pancharatra School. Wrappers show some wear. Name first endpaper.Otherwise good and clean copy.

THE YANTRAS OF DEITIES AND THEIR NUMEROLOGICAL FOUNDATIONS. An Iconographic Consideration.

New Delhi, D.K. Printworld, 2006. 2nd impression 293 pp. hardcover with dustjacket. Illustrated with 105 yantra diagrams. Yantra is a kind of mystical diagram used, in tantra, for both meditation and invoking a divinity, and is believed to possess/arouse occult powers. Drawn only by the adept: the ones schooled in this arcane, highly intricate process, and energized by siddh mantras, these seemingly innocuous geometrical figures are employed for any number of reasons or desires. This book highlights the essential import of these innocuous-looking, yet enigmatic, diagrams surfacing from the occult Practices of the tantrics. The author, an internationally known scholar of Oriental Art, examines a range of tantric yantras, with their varieties, applications, modes of construction and, above all, their iconographic features. 22,5 x 28,5 cm. Wrinkles in laminate (production faillure). Minor tanning inside. Otherwise very nice and clean copy

Goldberg, Ellen

THE LORD WHO IS HALF WOMAN. Ardhanarisvara in Indian and Feminist Perspective.

New York, State University of New York, 2002. 1st edition 193 pp. Pb. The designation Lord Who Is Half Woman refers to the androgynous Hindu god Ardhanarisvara (also known as Siva-Sakti). While iconographical aspects of this significant image have been addressed, the complex theological, philosophical, and social implications inherent in a dual gendered deity have not. This book provides the first extensive study of the influence of Ardhanarisvara, exploring four distinct areas of Indian culture, namely iconography, hatha yoga, devotional poetry (bhakti), and mythology. Goldberg also offers a feminist analysis of the ways in which male and female have been constructed in this image and the various representations pertaining to the broader gender implications of an androgynous deity. very good condition

SANKARACARYA’S CONCEPT OF RELATION.

Delhi, Motilal Banarsidass, 1999. 1st edition 205 pp. cloth / linen with dustjacket. This exploration of Indian philosophical beliefs is based on Sankara's use of relational terms which challenges the notion that the field be reduced to semantics and logic. It also suggests that the tradition of Advaita could provide a metaphysical foundation for a better understanding between participants. Sara Grant came as a missionary to India in 1956, to head the newly formed Department of Philosophy at Sophia College (University of Mumbai), Mumbai run by Society of the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Under the influence and guidance of Fr Richard De Smet, SJ, she studied Sanskrit and did a doctorate in the University of Bombay on the concept of relation in Adi Sankaracarya, (ca. 700 C.E.), the authoritative Hindu exponent of the doctrine of non-duality (Advaita). Dustjacket shows minor edgewear. Small tear first endpaper. Otherwise very nice and clean copy.

SEEKING MAHADEVI. Constructing the Identities of the Hindu Great Goddess.

Albany, State University of New York Press, 2001. 1st edition 254 pp. Pb. While Hindus recognize and revere a variety of different goddesses, they also tend to speak of one Great Goddess, Mahadevi, as a singular divine being who is the unity underlying all female deities. In this book, ten scholars reflect on both the diverse depictions of Mahadevi found in textual and devotional environments and the ways that the singularity and multiplicity of the divine Hindu feminine are negotiated. This book covers various geographical locations, from the Punjab and Bengal in North India to Kerala and Tamilnadu in the South, and makes use of evidence from ancient texts and contemporary interviews, male-authored documents and women's possession experiences, myth, ritual, and folklore. near fine condition
