Accumulation by Segregation: Muslim Localities in Delhi.
- Jamil, Ghazala
- Oxford U.P.
- xiv+240p.
- 2017
- Muslims -- India -- Delhi -- Social conditions Based on ethnographical study of Muslim neighbourhoods, this work argues that it is not merely communal discrimination and prejudice that causes formation of segregated Muslim enclaves. Through an intricately weaved argument the text explains that rather than being excluded from the city, the Muslim areas contain a segment of immobile labour and capital that are uniquely positioned for exploitation in the globalised world. Segregated spaces provide for accumulation in favour of other spaces in the city. Section A : Accumulation by segregation -- Section B : Discursive bases of segregation -- Section C : Counter-discourses

Hinduism Before Reform.

- 2020
- Rammohun Roy, Raja, 1772?-1833 -- Sahajānanda, Swami, 1781-1830 -- Brahma-samaj -- hindu sects -- History -- 19th century By the early eighteenth century, the Mughal Empire was in decline and the East India Company was making in-roads into the subcontinent with an eye on spices, indigo, and opium. A century later, Christian missionaries, Hindu "reformers," Muslim saints, and Sikh rebels formed the colorful religious fabric of colonial India. Through a focus on two distinct nineteenth-century Hindu religious communities and their charismatic leaders-the "cosmopolitan" Rammohun Roy and the "parochial" Swami Narayan, whose influences continue to be felt in contemporary Indian religious life-Hatcher tells us the story of how urban and rural people thought about faith, ritual, and gods.

- Lokāyata -- Philosophy, Indic -- Materialism in literature -- Empiricism in literature Philosophy in Indian tradition as a purely secular and rational exercise can be located in the Lokåayata/Cåarvåaka school of Indian philosophy. Due to the lack of substantial literary sources, scholars did not try to explore Lokåayata philosophically. The present work is the first attempt to explore the philosophical energies inherent in the scattered Cåarvåaka literature through critical and analytical discussions firmly grounded in textual evidences.

CASTE: the emergence of the South Asian social system.
- Klass, Morton
- Manohar
- xxv,212p
- 2020(1980)
- Caste -- South Asia How and why did the caste system emerge in South Asia? Why do con-temporary anthropologists and Indologists experience so much difficulty with this problem? Morton Klass addresses both of these questions in this book, and the result is an intellectual adventure story, an essay in ethnohistorical deduction and reconstruction. Klass begins by examining the assumptions underlying the older explanations of the origin of caste, tracing their roots in dubious history, ethnocentrism, and outmoded theory. Then, using contemporary anthro-pological writings on ecology, economy, social structure, and cultural evolution, he develops a scenario in which caste emerges as a trans-formation of an earlier clan structure that until now has been considered an evolutionary 'dead end'.

Nagarjuna and the Art of Negation: discerning subjectivity, emptiness, transcebdental ethics, tetralemma logic, binary logic, self-being and negations.
- Varghese, Mathew

- xx,255p
- 2020
- Sunyata -- Emptiness (Philosophy) -- Buddhism -- India -- History The conception of atman- Brahman is the foundation of Vedic philosophersi understanding of transcendentals as truth (sat), consciousness (cit) and bliss (ananada). Nagarjuna, on the other hand, employs negative dialectics to confute the logical structure of either/or that demands metaphysical concepts; and by employing the four-value logical structure, he introduces the transcendentals as wisdom and compassion. This book uses Nagarjunian art of negation to reread his philosophy differently to discern the concept of emptiness ( sunyata) as the co-dependent evolution of various elements of the subjective self and the elements of objective experiences in the dominion of the subjective self; therein it is possible to redefine no-soul (nairatmya) as self-being, and idominion of subjectivityi for replacing a metaphysical postulation; and the transcendentals as wisdom and compassion.

- Sunyata -- Emptiness (Philosophy) -- Buddhism -- India -- History This book is a collection of my essays on Emptiness thought in Indian Buddhism, journal articles and conference papers composed over four decades. All have been recently revised and reflect my current views. I first became interested in this problem when I was a college student. What drew me to the question was: How is Emptiness expressed by words? Since then, I have returned to arguments concerning Emptiness over and over, in search of greater clarity. My approach has remained philological, depending on close reading of Sanskrit, Tibetan and Chinese texts. (from "Preface")

Buddhism, Meditation, and Free Will: a theory of mental freedom. (Routledge Critical Studies in Buddhism)
- Repetti, Rick
- Routledge
- xvi,205p pap.
- 2020(19)
- Buddhism -- Doctrines -- Free will and determinism -- Religious aspects This book presents a comprehensive analytical review of extant scholarship on perspectives on free will. It studies and refutes the most powerful Western and Buddhist philosophical objections to free will and explores the possibility that a form of agency may in fact exist within Buddhism. Providing a detailed explanation of how Buddhist meditation increases self-regulative mind-control abilities, the author argues that the Buddhist path is designed to produce meditation virtuosos exhibiting mind-control abilities far exceeding the free-will advocate’s ability to ‘do otherwise’ or have their choices be ‘up to’ them. Based on the empirically-supported mind-control cultivated by these meditation virtuosos, the book proposes the principle of, ‘Buddhist Soft Compatibilism’, a theory of ‘freedom of the mind’ that entails freedoms of the will, attention, emotion and action, compatible with both determinism and indeterminism.

- Utpala, active 900-950 -- Īśvarapratyabhijñā -- Kashmir Śaivism -- Doctrines The Īśvarapratyabhijñākārikā of Utpaladeva with the author's vṛtti : critical edition and annotated translation/ Raffaele Torella The Īśvarapratyabhijñākārikā (ĪPK) of Utpaladeva (ca. 925-975 C.E.) is the foundation stone of the Pratyabhijñā school and constitutes the main theoretical framework of the Trika. It is the most important philosophical work of non-dual tantric Shaivism as a whole. Utpaladeva devoted two commentaries to his ĪPK a vṛtti and a ṭīkā or vivṛti (now almost totally lost). According to Abhinavagupta, the ĪPK and the vṛtti thereon were composed by Utpaladeva at the same time. This makes the vṛtti an indispenable tool to grasp the original meaning of the difficult kārikās of the Īśvarapratyabhijñā. Unfortunately, all vṛtti manuscripts from Kashmir broke at the same point and, consequently, so did the edition (also faulty in many points) published in the Kashmir Series of Texts and Studies in 1918. The present book, originally published in the Serie Orientale Roma (IsMEO), contains the first critical edition of the ĪPK and, for the first time, the complete text of the vṛtti on the basis of a unique Malayalam manuscript discovered in Trivandrum Library by R. Torella, who has also made use of the other incomplete manuscripts from Kashmir. The edition is accompanied by an English translation with copious exegetical notes, which highlight the connections of Utpaladeva's thought with the coeval schools of Indian philosophy and, first of all, with the Buddhist pramāṇa tradition.

- Jainism -- Tīrthaṅkaras -- Biography The Tirthankaras in Jainism enjoy the highest position in both the Svetambara as well as the Digambara sects. Each one of the twenty four Tirthankaras have their own glory and importance as cult figures and are revered not only by the Jaina followers in the country but the world over. The first as well as the last few of them are considered to be historical figures. They are adored in the from of sculptures and other means of the plastic art from the time immemorial. The archaeological evidence stands testimony to their adoration in shrines and temples which had been built by the contemporary rulers or even the members of the merchant guilds in the ancient past. These vestiges of the ancient period stand witness to the excellence, the Indian sculptural art had achieved in the remote past. Not only in the temples, but the images of the Tirthankaras were found carved in the mountain caves like Rajagir and other sites in the entire length and breadth of the country, besides miniatures in the Kalpasutras.

The text is nonetheless of unique value, as an influence of the Consciousness-only or Yogācāra school can clearly be seen. The critical edition of the Sanskrit text presented in this volume is chiefly based on a photocopy kept in the library of the China Tibetology Research Center, Beijing, of a codex unicus found in the Norbulingka Palace in Lhasa. The volume also contains a critical edition of the Classical Tibetan translation, the Song dynasty Chinese translation, and a diplomatic transcription of the Sanskrit manuscript. The introduction is offered in English, Chinese, and Japanese.

Despite the fact that Tantrism grew to become such an integral part of the religious landscape, our understanding of how early Tantric communities were actually organized and how they positioned themselves in society is still limited. This collection of articles by leading scholars offers new insights into the socio-religious history of premodern Tantric traditions.

Its starting point is a detailed study of the most ancient text exclusively devoted to linguistic issues belonging to that tradition, which is translated here for the first time in a western language, and of its only known Sanskrit commentary.

- Epic poetry, Sanskrit -- Vedic literature -- History and criticism This celebrates the distinguished career of the American Indologist Robert P. Goldman. The essays on Sanskrit literary history, which range from the danastutui in the Rgveda(Romila Thapar) to the transformation of literary theory in ninth-century Kashmir(Sheldon Pollock) to the practice of philology in seventeenth century Varanasi(Chirstopher Minkowski), reflect the wide range of interests of Professor Goldman himself, and the wide influence he has exerted on the field. Eight of the essays(by such leading scholars as Greg Bailey, John Brockington, James Fitzgerald, Luis Gonzalez-Reimann, PHyllis Granoff, Alf Hiltebeitel, Adheesh Sathaye, and Sally Sutherland Goldman), concentrate on the epics and Puranas, and as an ensemble make for essential reading on the genre of Sanskrit literature to which Goldman, as editor-in-chief of the Ramayana Translation Project, has devoted the greater part of his career. The scholarly essays are book ended by the survey of Professor Goldman's scholarly contributions(Deven Patel) and a lively personal reminiscence

- 2013(07)
- Magadha (Kingdom) -- Civilization -- Hinduism -- History of doctrines Greater Magadha, roughly the eastern part of the Gangetic plain of northern India, has so far been looked upon as deeply indebted to Brahmanical culture. Religions such as Buddhism and Jainism are thought of as derived, in one way or another, from Vedic religion. This belief is defective in various respects. This book argues for the importance and independence of Greater Magadha as a cultural area until a date close to the beginning of the Common Era. In order to correct the incorrect notions, two types of questions are dealt with: questions pertaining to cultural and religious dependencies, and questions relating to chronology. As a result a modified picture arises that also has a bearing on the further development of Indian culture.

- Sanskrit language -- Semantics -- Philosophy The Śaktivāda of Gadādhara : theory of expressive power of words : with introduction, Sanskrit texts English translation and notes Treatise on Sanskrit semantics, presenting the neo-Nyaya point of view in Hindu philosophy The theory of expressive power of words (Saktivada) is the most important work on the signification of word. It deals with word, its signification and its meanings. While word (sabda) is a distinct means of knowledge (Pramana), signification (Vrtti) such as expressive power is a relation between word and its meaning (Pada Padartha Sambandha), also word-meaning (Padartha) is generic property, form and individual (yatyakrti vyaktayah). Gadadhara admits signification two fold as expressive power (Sakti), and indication (laksana). While the Pracyas admitted expressive power to be convention of God, the Navyas admitted the same to be convention of speaker in general. The theory of expressive power of word (Saktivada) is divided into three chapters, viz. the Samanya kanda, the Visesa Kanda and the Parisista Kanda. The Samanya Kanda deals with expressive power in word meaning i.e. in generic property, form and individual (Jaty akrti vyaktayah) in general the Visesa Kanda deals with expressive power in meanings of specific words such as ether (akasa) also, the Parisista Kanda deals with the Navyas position that expressive power of word in individual as qualified by generic property and form. The present volume contains English translation of the Saktivada of Gadadhara with critical notes and erudite introduction.

- Philosophy of history -- India -- Historiography On the philosophy of historical writings to 324 B.C. Understanding Itihasa in fact stoutly and cogently contests the stereotypical view that early India lacked a sense of history. With patience, care and sympathy the monograph studies and analyzes a host of terms and concepts that developed in early India relating to human past, the methods of its preservation and the concerned expertise in those fields. The material studies spans from the Rgvedic period to the Early Medieval and includes literary, epigraphical and numismatic. The monograph gently and firmly asserts that the currently dominate view of history may not be the only valid way of looking at past. pt. 1. The path that great men walked -- pt. 2.

- Aesthetics, Indic. -- Sanskrit literature -- History and criticism India not only has a very rich and uninterrupted tradition of poetry, but it also developed different forms of literature, including drama, and an equally ancient tradition of performing as well as plastic art forms. The Nafya:scistra of Bharata remains the source of the entire speculation on poetics and the theory of art and aesthetics. Abhinavabharati, the only available commentary on the Natyashastra is a monumental work on not only the theory of rasa but also on the concept of beauty in nature as well as art. At the same time, there are numerous texts available on music, dance, sculpture, architecture and so on, besides the huge material available in the Agamas and the Puranas. Indira Gandhi National Centre for the Arts (IGNCA), Regional Centre, Varanasi cherished an idea of exploring the possibilities of the pervasive theory of Indian aesthetics, which may embrace literature, theatre and all other art forms. With a desire to explore to what extent these theories may encompass the vast area of literature and arts, a special lecture series was planned and organized. The present volume is an outcome of the lecture series. It is hoped that volume will be of immense interest to the connoisseurs of Indian art and aesthetics across the country and abroad. It should help them to relish the taste of various dimensions of Indian aesthetics.
