Literature of Saivism. 6. Saivism. 7. The Saiva Acharyas. 8. Vira Saivism. Shaivas are devotees of the Hindu God Shiva. While Shaivism contains within it a number of traditions and theologies Shaivas will regard Shiva as the transcendent Lord who creates the cosmos maintains it and destroys it over and over again. He also conceals himself through his magical power (maya) and reveals himself through grace. Most Shaivas believe in the standard Hindu doctrine that the soul travels through many lifetimes in the cycle of reincarnation (Samsara) and that the kind of rebirth the soul experiences is determined by its action (karma). The ultimate goal of life is salvation or liberation (Moksha) from the cycle of reincarnation attained by a degree of effort but ultimately through Shiva's grace. The worship of Shiva is very ancient in India. Hymns to Rudra a name of Shiva are found in the Veda the earliest Hindu scriptures regarded as revelation (c. 1500 BCE) though worship of Shiva may have its origins in the Indus Valley civilisation (c. 2000 BCE).

Hardbound. Condizione: As New. New. From the Introduction This book The Divine Wisdom of the Dravida Saints is really a series of discourses on the Highest Mystery viz. Wisdom matured into Love of God. This in other words is no other than the fullest blooming of the lotus heart of man thirsting for spiritual communion with God. This again in other words means the infinite expansion or development of the consciousness of man so as to fully realise what it is for man to infinitely love his God and what it is for God to infinitely love His own creature or Divine love Filial and parental. This book treats of both these kinds of love. The present book may be taken as an interesting Prelude to the Bhagavad Vishayam from which in the shape of topics it is drawn and arranged. The plan followed is a division of the book into a number of short topics each complete and independent in itself and illustrated by conversations and anecdotes thus for the first time giving to the Western world an idea of this Eastern method of inculcating spiritual instruction. Another novel feature of this book consists in its having copious footnotes which are mostly correspondence selected from out of a wide range of works of Western Divines so as to show how religious ideas are found to have unity and universality how it may be seen that one raceless and countryless God indeed rules over all races and all countries and how the Highest Mystery of religion consists in the fervid over mastering intensity of rapt love to God which is the highest wisdom the highest mysticism and occultism leading to liberation and beatitude or communion with God. 216 pp.…

Triumph. The Mahabharata and the Ramayana are two books that stand out from the rest of Indian literature in a very marked way.

But the Mahabharata and the Ramayana are wrought into the very life of every Indian man woman and child. Despite the influence wielded by these two books however their moulding power on life is not so great as once it was. If we could bring back their influence on character we should indeed life our Indian upwards. They hold up to us ideals of conduct virtues acted out on life's stage as practical examples for old and young alike for husbands and wives parents and children brothers and sister friends and enemies. As we study character after character the lessons each is meant to teach and their value to us in modern India. 188 pp.…
