Book Description
This concise Pali-English Dictionary has been prepared mainly for use by students in schools and colleges. The author is not only eminent Elder of the Buddhist Order but one of the leading Pali scholars recognized both in the East and the West as an authority on the subject. It is to be observed that the author has kept more or less to the traditional sense of words while not althogether ignoring the meanings given by Western scholars in their translations and lexicons. Many errors in thelatter sources have also been rectified. But the basic sense adopted is in nearly every instance the traditionally accepted meaning in accord with the commentaries and the glossaries. This perhaps is of special value to beginners as thereby they get introduced to the indigenous tradition, thus providing a useful basis on which to build up a more scientific knowledge as the study advances.

Book Description
On the spiritual path our logical mind has many questions and many religious or spiritual scriptures do not do justice to our logical or scientific questions. Mahavir has given rational answers to all possible questions 2500 years ago. His approach is inward looking than finding the solutions from outside. He explains by classifying things, explaining different types of personalities, explaining the differences and also giving examples along with the changes of misinterpretations. You will find 12 experiments (Tap) which he has devised for us. Six external and six internal. These experiments are essential for our self-improvement, reducing stress, lifestyle management and spiritual growth.

I tried to organize his teaching for modern society in today’s context but making sure that I try to get his message to you as raw as possible for your own interpretations.

Book Description
Why do we suffer? What is the way out of suffering? What is the purpose of life? And what is the ultimate truth? Vardhamaan Mahavir, the last Jain Tirthankara, did not begin his life as a saint. A prince and a householder, he renounced the world as a youth, seeking to realize himself. Why would a man leave his kingdom and family to wander naked across impossible terrain for twelve long years, exposing himself to hard penance and the harshest circumstances? Was his journey worth the pain he suffered and perhaps inflicted on those closest to him? Such questions plague the mind of Priyadarshini, Mahavir’s young daughter, as she journeys with her mother, Queen Yashoda, to meet the man the world knows as the enlightened one, but in whom she sees only the father who abandoned her. Yet, as the girl grapples with her contempt for him, she is drawn into a deeper spiritual inquiry. In visions her mother shares with her, Priyadarshini traverses Mahavir’s past lives, and eventually arrives at a profound understanding of the true essence of the man who conquered the world by conquering himself. Drawing on rarely accessed Jain texts, Mahavir is an inspirational tale of the making of a spiritual master that raises age-old questions as relevant to the modern reader as they were in Mahavir’s time.

Jainism
Author: Agustin Panikar
Publisher: Motilal Banarsidass
ISBN: 8120834607
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 587
Book Description
Jainism is a tradition which dates back thousands of years, which is unbelievably rich and profound, and which has certain unmistakable signs of identity. Contrary to what some might think, it is not in any sense a poor relation of Buddhism, nor is a strange, atheistic and ascetic sect within Hinduism. Jainism is, above all, the religion of non-violence (ahimsa), an ideal which all other religions of India were subsequently to make theirs and which was made universal by Gandhi in the 20th century. Like Buddhism, Jainism is a religion without God which paradoxically opens to the truly sacred in the deepest reaches of all living beings in the cosmos. And it is also the religion of non-absolutism (anekantavada), a particular form of philosophical pluralism, which seems astonishingly modern.

Jainism

Languages : en
Pages : 194
Book Description
Along with Hinduism and Buddhism, Jainism is one of the three most ancient Indian religious traditions still in existence and an integral part of South Asian religious belief and practice. While often employing concepts shared with Hinduism and Buddhism, the result of a common cultural and linguistic background, the Jain tradition must be regarded as an independent phenomenon rather than as a Hindu sect or a Buddhist heresy, as some earlier Western scholars believed.The name Jainism derives from the Sanskrit verb ji, "to conquer." It refers to the ascetic battle that, it is believed, Jain renunciants (monks and nuns) must fight against the passions and bodily senses to gain enlightenment, or omniscience and purity of soul. The most illustrious of those few individuals who have achieved enlightenment are called Jina (literally, "Conqueror"), and the tradition's monastic and lay adherents are called Jain ("Follower of the Conquerors"), or Jaina. This term came to replace a more ancient designation, Nirgrantha ("Bondless"), originally applied to renunciants only.Jainism has been confined largely to India, although the recent migration of Indians to other, predominantly English-speaking countries has spread its practice to many Commonwealth nations and to the United States. Precise statistics are not available, but it is estimated that there are more than four million Jains, the vast majority of whom live in India.

Though the writings of Savarkar and the commentaries on these writings exist in bulk, it was important to produce a book that introduces and offers the important ideas of Savarkar to this generation of readers and scholars in a concise and categorised form. This book is an attempt in this direction of educating the readers about the ideas and philosophies of a great twentieth century thinker which would also pave the way for developing a better understanding of the varying strands of contemporary political thoughts and also in terms of understanding the critical relationship that is shared between identity and collective political struggles.
