Hardcover. Condizione: New. This is an annotated English translation of Vijnanabhiksu s commentaries on the first five Brahmasutra (BS) of Badarayana called the Vijnanamrtabhasya (VijBh). This is a pioneering work as no translation of the VijBh has been done so far. Bhiksu is perhaps the only known Vedanta scholar who has argued for Brahman along with his prakrti-sakti being the cause of the world. He calls his Advaita philosophy as Avibhaga-Advaita and sets himself against Sankara s Advaita which argues for Brahman alone being the material and efficient cause of the world. Bhiksu is also an unique Advaita scholar as he interprets Vedanta using Samkhya/Yoga principles. One of the reasons for choosing to comment on only the first five sutras was because the VijBh is a huge work and also because Bhiksu s Avibhaga-Advaita can easily be understood from his commentaries on these first five sutras of the BS. Even though the real reason for Bhiksu s commentary on the fifth sutra (BS I.1.5) should be clear to anyone familiar with Vedanta s objection to prakrti being the cause of the world, it needed to be seen as to how Bhiksu, as a committed Samkhya-Yoga-Vedantacarya, defends prakrti s role in being the cause. Just as writing commentaries on the first four sutras of Sankara s BSBh done by some eminent scholars present the main features of Sankara s Advaita, the commentaries on the first five sutras of the BS by Bhiksu could adequately present Bhiksu s Avibhaga-Advaita Vedanta.…

Hardcover. Condizione: New. The Mahabharata is an Itihasa which holds fascination for scholars of different disciplines. There is material here, in this vast text, for anthropologists, sociologists, philosophers, scholars of religious studies, astrophysicists and many more. While earlier scholarship has mainly been in the fields of religion and philosophy and in the dating of the Itihasa, since the publication of the critical edition, scholars have been engaged in researching its contents both critically and comparatively in very much areas and in novel ways. This book, which is a collection of essays by scholars reputed in the area of Mahabharata studies, belongs to this new genre. There are chapter, here, that explore the hermeneutics of dharma, other which try to analyze different characters from many perspectives, one which revisits the dating of the Kuruksetra war using latest computer technology, another one which discusses the birth of the Pandavas and the Kauravas in modern bioethical terms, and many other topics as well. This book is thus an addition to the ongoing scholarship is understanding the inexhaustible material available to us is this unique Mahabharata text that represents in many ways, the cultural history of India. Though ancient, the Mahabharata is modern in the challenges it presents to scholars of all ages. It is a book which also caters to the general reader interested in the Itihasa tradition.…
