Abhinavagupta’s Commentary on the Bhagavad Gita (PB)
₹875Abhinavagupta, probably the greatest genius of India in the fields of philosophy, aesthetics, poetics, dramaturgy, Tantra and mysticism, is being rediscovered only in the last few decades. Although several scholars, in India and abroad, are engaged in studying his works, it is surprising that there are still few translations available.
Abhinavagupta’s Hermeneutics of the Absolute Anuttaraprakriya
₹1,800This study by Bettina Baumer is important and welcome because it deals with what may well be considered as the very core-metaphysically and mystically-of Abhinavagupta’s teaching, and of what he still can tell and teach us. Its importance is, of course and foremost, due to the fact that it deals with a work by Abhinavagupta who-as Bettina Baumer forcefully says in her introduction-is undoubtedly one of the most remarkable.
Abhinaya Darpanam
₹995Dance studies across genres require multiple approaches for an understanding of the sociological, phenomenological, political, cultural, philosophical and aesthetical practices that influences the dance’s kinesthetic and existential character. In the context of Bharatanatyam, the moment of explaining shifting ideologies and its impact on the form, content and process, is a moment of convergence.
Action Freedom and Responsibility
₹750This book, a work on human doing, analyses and applies three central aspects of human life – Action, Freedom and Responsibility – in the wide spectrum of the Philosophy of Mind. Reflections on these issues and their interconnections have a significant effect on the Philosophy of Value and application of ethical theories in practical life.
Adhyasa
₹295The concept of Adhyasa in its three variants has to be asserted from the non-contradictory ground of Reality. In this context, there is a need to differentiate ‘mere appearance’ (as it appears) and ‘the actual appearance’ (as it is) or the unmanifest Reality. It cannot be denied that the concepts of ‘Brahmatkaikya’ and ‘Brahmabhava’ created confusion in many thinkers, but the authentic explanations by Sri Sankara steadfastly made the Advaitic perspective unchallengeable in all the times.
Aditya Hrdayam
₹150The book presents the original Sanskrit mantras of the ‘Aditya Hrdayam’ along with their Roman translation and lucid English translation. The verses are accompanied by detailed annotations that describe every term, concept and idea with great clarity.
Advaita Metaphysics
₹425This book undertakes the study of Advaitavada of sankara in its depth and extension. It spells out the relative cogency of Malkani’s understanding of Advaita Metaphysics and Methodology, Murty’s Critique of Advaita (nondualism) and Misra’s Philosophical Construction of Advaita from a linguistic perspective. This volume centres around the formulations of the Advaita theory of monism on the basis epistemological and logical analysis of knowledge in Adhyasa Bhasya.
Advaitic Mysticism Of Sankara
₹700This book attempts to elaborate and clarify Sankara’s understanding of brahmannubhava, in all its aspects, relying exclusively on his own writings. For this, not only the commentaries, but also the prakarana granthas have been taken into account. In the final chapter, brahmanubhava is compared with what was said about the mystic experience by two of the most authoritative exponents of christian and Islamic mysticisms, namely st, John of the cross and Jalalu’ d-Din Rumi, mainly to understand Sankara’s position without any ambiguity.
