Languages : en
Pages : 192
Book Description
In India, system of caste hierarchy is as old as is its civilization. The Brahmans, being the class of intellectuals, educationists and priests, occupy the most privileged rank in the society. Hey have contributed a great deal to the psychic build-up of Indian society. Embodying a large number of communities, they have spreaded over different parts of the country; Sri Vaishnava community is one of them. In the Soujthern peninsula of India, Ramanuja founded the Srivaishnava school of Vaishnavism in the 11the century. His philosophy, Visistadvaita, as well as the religious movements of the Srivaishnavas made a Sri in the intellectuals of the then society. Consequently a large number of the Brahmans who originally were the followers of the Smart tradition, took refuge under Srivaishnavism whose liturgy is guided by the codes of the Pancaratras instead of the Smrtis. Not being regarded with great esteem by the Bhrahmans who conform to the Srtis and from the majour population of the caste, Sri Vaishnava Brahmans gradually developed an exclusive community of their own. The present work has made for the first time a full-fledged survey of the origin time a full-fledged survey of the origin and development of this particular community of the Brahmans as well as an authoritative exposition of the their liturgical codes and an accurate account of their cultural life. It deals with: Vaishnavism of South India, Azhvars, Archaryas, life and teachings or Ramanuja, basic tenets of Visistavaita philosophy, cardinal principles of Sri-vaishnavism, schism in the school and emergence of the Tengalai and Vadagalai, daily observances of the Sri Vaishnava Brahmarns, Archaka Sri Vaishnava Brahmans and principal rites and ceremonies. It contains some interesting illustrations. Besides being the study of an important Hindu, sect, the work would be considered of great interest to the scholars of sociology and anthropology.

Unusual Essays of an Unknown Sri Vaishnava : Volume 1
Author: M. K. Sudarshan
Publisher: StoryMirror Infotech Pvt Ltd
ISBN: 1482886278
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 270
Book Description
This book is less about Sri Vaishnavism as a creed and far more about a modern Sri Vaishnava’s outlook on life. Understanding the ancient Indian spiritual and religious tradition of Sri Vaishnavism can never be complete without some acquaintance with its scriptural literature that is found written mostly in the Sanskrit and native vernacular. In India today, English-educated modern youth, as well as young Indian communities at large in the global diaspora, lacking mastery in either language, completely miss out being able to appreciate and experience life, and the world itself, in the many rare, brilliant and quite “unusual” ways in which their distant ancestors saw it all and recorded their experiences too as scriptural insight. This book is a collection of 18 delightful essays in truly felicitous English, each one of which enables and then vividly brings to life for readers a deep and fresh understanding of the ancestral verities of India.
