Book Description
Here is the first translation into English of the Basava Purana, a fascinating collection of tales that sums up and characterizes one of the most important and most radical religious groups of South India. The ideas of the Virasaivas, or militant Saivas, are represented in those tales by an intriguing mix of outrageous excess and traditional conservatism. Written in Telugu in the thirteenth century, the Basava Purana is an anthology of legends of Virasaivas saints and a hagiography of Basavesvara, the twelfth-century Virasaiva leader. This translation makes accessible a completely new perspective on this significant religious group. Although Telugu is one of the major cultural traditions of India, with a classical literature reaching back to the eleventh century, until now there has been no translation or exposition of any of the Telugu Virasaiva works in English. The introduction orients the reader to the text and helps in an understanding of the poet's point of view. The author of the Basava Purana, Palkuriki Somanatha, is revered as a saint by Virasaivas in Andhra and Karnataka. His books are regarded as sacred texts, and he is also considered to be a major poet in Telugu and Kannada. Originally published in 1990. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press. These editions preserve the original texts of these important books while presenting them in durable paperback and hardcover editions. The goal of the Princeton Legacy Library is to vastly increase access to the rich scholarly heritage found in the thousands of books published by Princeton University Press since its founding in 1905.

Book Description
Shiva manasa pooja is one of the easiest and shortest and most beautiful hymns on Shiva which helps us to do a mental worship or internal worship. Wherever we are and in whichever time we want, we can do the mental worship. Mental worship is the process of visualizing the god, then visualizing various offerings and offer them to the lord mentally. The basic offerings are of sixteen kinds which will be discussed in detail throughout this book. This worship is one of the best ways to connect with god. You don’t need to depend on any external factors or availability of things. You can create things out of our visualization and offer them to god. All that god cares is that you wish to offer him something with love and you are thinking about him with love and devotion while offering mentally. This kind of worship has an equal importance just like external ritualistic worship (baahya pooja) – external worship. Even at times when you are not able to do the external worship, it is prescribed that you do internal worship of the lord. This hymn is one of the simplest ways to help you do it. You can do it two times a day. There are no special rules to be followed. Just chant this hymn with devotion and visualize every offering in each step and offer it to lord Shiva. I will give you a couple of Dhyana shlokas (verses for contemplation and visualization) of lord Shiva which you can use to visualize Shiva and then slowly visualize various offerings and offer them to lord Shiva as guided by the hymn.
