Hardcover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. The Vrttamalastuti or "Praise in the Form of a Garland of Metres Counted by Syllables" is a unique piece of literature composed by Jnanasrimitra, who taught Buddhist philosophy and other subjects at the university of Vikramasila in the first half of the 11th century. This work illustrates… 150 metres in the form of a hymn, as indicated by its title. The addressee is the Bodhisattva Manjusri. With great ingenuity Jnanasrimitra manages to include the name of each metre in the respective stanza in such a manner that it becomes a natural part of the praise of Manjusri. Some of the names of the metres have no independent meaning. The author therefore uses various devices so that those words can fit in the praise of Manjusri. The commentary (Vivrti) is a most welcome aid for understanding the intricacies of Jnanasrimitra's composition. It evinces Sakyaraksita's profound scholarship and versatile knowledge. Working on these two texts for past several years, Prof. Michael Hahn published the first edition of the texts from Japan. The present revised edition is the first Indian edition in Devanagari based on that edition. Reading this book itself will be a refreshingly new experience for enthusiastic readers.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. Condizione sovraccoperta: New. 1st Edition. Sivasvamin's epic poem King Kapphina's Triumph composed in Kashmir in the second half of the ninth century, is one of the five extant Mahakavyas composed during the first millennium CE. Due to the bad state of the edited text and the unavailability of a comm…entary it has not received the attention it deserves on account of its superior poetic qualities. The discovery of most of the missing folios of the best and oldest manuscript from Nepal and of a second complete manuscript made it possible to prepare a new edition in which most of the gaps and mistakes of the first edition could be removed. This book contains the first Devanagari version of the improved text. The content of the poem based on an old Buddhist legend from the Avadanasataka, is quite unique. King Kapphina's triumph is in fact a military defeat, because he loses the decisive battle against the Kosala king Prasenajit whose kingdom he had intended to conquer. This happens because Prasenajit is saved by the miraculous power of the Buddha in the very last moment. This impresses King Kapphina and leads to his spiritual awakening and conversion to the doctrine of the Buddha. In the last consequence the Kapphinabhyudaya can be called a pacifistic poem. Sivasvamin's command of Sanskrit and his literary techniques are extraordinary. He refines many of the existing figures of speech and introduces new ones. The bilingual canto xix is unprecedented and without successor, and it will require the united efforts of several generations of scholars until the full range of Sivasvamin's poetical genius can be duly appreciated. The present edition is meant to contribute to this end. (jacket).
