The Ocean of Inquiry (eBook, ePUB)
Advaita Vedanta is one of the best-known schools of Indian philosophy, but much of its history--a history closely interwoven with that of medieval and modern Hinduism--remains surprisingly unexplored. This book focuses on a single remarkable work and its place within that history: The Ocean of Inquiry, a vernacular compendium of Advaita Vedanta by the North Indian monk Niscaldas (ca. 1791 - 1863). Though not well known today, Niscaldas's work was once referred to by Vivekananda (himself a key figure in the shaping of modern Hinduism) as the most influential book in India. The present book situates The Ocean of Inquiry as representative of both a neglected genre (vernacular Vedanta) and a neglected period (ca. 17th-19th centuries) in the history of Indian philosophy. It argues that the rise of Advaita Vedanta to a position of prestige began well before the period of British rule in India, and that vernacular texts like The Ocean of Inquiry played an important role in popularizing Vedantic teachings. It also offers a new appraisal of the period of late Advaita Vedanta, arguing that it should not be seen as one of barren scholasticism. For thinkers like Niscaldas, intellectual "inquiry" (vicara) was not an academic exercise but a spiritual practice-indeed, it was the central practice on the path to liberation. The book concludes by arguing that without understanding both vernacular Vedanta and the scholasticism of the period, one cannot fully understand the emergence of modern Hinduism.- Shop: buecher

Die Gesammelten Werke
Ramana Maharshi (1879-1950) war einer der bedeutendsten Weisen Indiens. Er führte am Berg Arunachala in Südindien ein zurückgezogenes Leben. Menschen aus allen Ländern, Bildungsschichten und Religionen kamen zu ihm. Er lehrte vorwiegend Selbstergründung (atma vichara) und kam mit vielen Standardwerken des Advaita Vedanta und des hinduistischen Schrifttums in Berührung, weil Devotees sie ihm brachten, damit er sie ihnen erklären möge. Im Laufe seines Lebens schrieb er Gedichte und Prosa, meist aber nicht aus eigenem Antrieb, sondern weil seine Anhänger ihn darum baten oder als Antwort auf ihre Fragen. Zudem übersetzte er einige wichtige Advaita-Werke.- Shop: buecher

The Way Of Powerlessness , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 209min
Powerlessness = Strength We suffer from the most insidious kind of addiction - one we don't even realize we have. It is the addiction to power itself. Both the Twelve Steps of recovery and the ancient teaching of Advaita reveal that powerlessness is the secret to genuine strength. The proposition that lasting peace in life can come through the recognition of complete personal powerlessness may seem counterintuitive and ultimately ridiculous. Yet, lasting peace is the miracle The Way of Powerlessness makes possible. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Lee Eric Smith.
