Book Description
The gods – a story told over and over in different cultures. Norse, Greek, and Roman mythologies are all different versions of a similar story. But what about the Kahitiean gods? What about a world where gods, magic and fate intertwine to defeat evil? In the Kingdom of Solaris, all will be revealed to an unsuspecting girl whose destiny is predetermined. Facing trials more death-defying than the last, creatures unknown to this world, and horrors of the evil force threatening to take over the world, all to prove she is worthy of her destiny. Just to top it all off, complex riddles only she can solve, a new friend who tests the boundaries between love and hate, and a stowaway in the form of a six-year-old sister who has an incessant need for pancakes. Will she save the world? Or will she crumble and let humanity perish, destroying the kingdom of the gods?

The Seven Instruction Lineages
Author: Jo Nang Taranatha
Publisher: Library of Tibetan Works and Archives
ISBN: 8186470654
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 181
Book Description
In the present work, Taranatha paints a miraculous picture of the great Siddhas of India their lives and the lineages which sprang from their teachings. In all, the lives of some 59 Siddhas are related some well known, others more obscure, but all linked by their various lineages and by the instructions handed down from Siddha to disciple. Taranatha’s account of these remarkable lives is especially valuable as he had as his gurus, and as the sources of these accounts, three Indians from the very traditions about which he wrote with such conviction. The lineage accounts are very important for a clear understanding of the Tantric upadesas themselves. In several places Taranatha makes quite sure that his own lineage is irrefutably established so that there is no doubt that he is a participator in the upadesas themselves, not merely a hander down of legends. The accounts were evidently passed on and, due to the special factors involved in the tantric oral tradition, we cannot but understand them as being accurate and reliable.

The Adamantine Songs (Vajragīti)
Author: Lara Braitstein
Publisher: American Institute of Buddhist Studies
ISBN: 9781935011170
Category : Mahāmudrā (Tantric rite)
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Presented here in English for the first time is a set of three of Saraha's "Adamantine Songs" (Skt. vajragiti; Tib. rdo rje'i glu), poetic works that play a central role in the Great Seal (mahamudra) tantric tradition of both India and Tibet. The tantric adept (siddha) Saraha was among the most notable figures from India's late first millennium, a time of rich religious and literary activity. His influence on Buddhist practice and poetry extended beyond the Indian subcontinent into Tibet, where his influence continues to impact every tradition that engages the practice and philosophy of the esoteric Great Seal. In these songs, Saraha's views on the nature of mind are presented as both evocative poetry and theoretical exegesis. These songs offer a new perspective on the religious life of Buddhist India and the figure of one of its most famous adepts. Braitstein opens the door to this important set of texts by Saraha through her elegant translation, critical edition of the Tibetan texts, and in-depth analysis of the three poems. She situates Saraha and his work both in the Tibetan Buddhist sphere and in a broader South Asian literary and religious context, closely treating the central themes in Saraha's poems, highlighting the specific siddha worldview espoused in his oeuvre, and at the same time unpacking the cryptic references contained in the songs' individual verses. With this book, Braitstein substantially increases the amount of Saraha's poetry available to an English-speaking audience, and contributes to the ever-increasing movement to explore the culture of the tantric adepts.

Bhagavat Sandarbha
Author: Śrīla Jīva Gosvāmī
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781981082667
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
Bhagavat Sandarbha is the second Sandarbha. After showing in Tattva Sandarbha that the principal proof among all scriptures is Bhāgavatam, Jīva Gosvāmī also indicated that the subject presented in Bhāgavatam is Bhagavān. This Sandarbha commences to describe Bhagavān, distinguishing him from Brahman and Paramātmā. Since Brahman is merely an incomplete realization of Bhagavān, a separate Sandarbha is not need to describe it. Paramātmā, however, having special functions related to creation of the material world and manifestation of the jīva, is described in the next Sandarbha.
