Download or read book Puja Prakriti written by Saumyendra Nath Brahmachary and published by Indic Publication. This book was released on 2016-02-17 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acharya Saumyendra Nath Brahmachary would engage in detailed discussions during the entire 'Puja Parva' sequentially from 'Pitri-paksha' to 'Devi-paksha' and then also covering Kojagari Lakshmi Puja, Kali Puja, 'Bhratri-Dwitiya' and finally Jagaddhatri Puja in the CTVN AKD PLUS satellite cable channel. This book 'Puja Prakriti' is a humble attempt to collate and present his precious renderings on this subject. During his lifetime Acharyadev had written the explanation of the theory behind Durga Puja in his book 'Arsha Bani'. But later, he had explained the entire Puja process especially the detailed rites and rituals of Duga Puja in his own words in a lucid language that is understood by all. In this book we have tried to present his words while retaining his characteristic communication style in conversation mode as far as possible. This is part of a spiritual tradition following the lineage of the Masters ('Guru parampara'). In the first book 'Puja Tattva', the Great Master 'Paramguru' Brahmarshi Satyadev explained the theory behind the Pujas from his realized wisdom. His principal disciple Shrimat Narendranath Brahmachary came up with 'Mantra O Puja Rahasya' which became very popular and handy for worshippers. His worthy successor Shrimat Saumyendra Nath Brahmachary offered a simpler yet scientific and spiritual explanation of the procedural aspects of the Puja. Hence this book has been named as 'Puja Prakriti'. It is a collection of his lectures and discourses originally complied in Bengali by his disciple Kaberi Mukherjee along with a complete English trans-creation by Shri Sanjoy Mukherjee, also a disciple of Acharyadev, so that the words of the Acharya on Puja may reach people from other linguistic backgrounds for their understanding. We feel that this initiative will help spread his well thought out ideas and messages to a much wider section of the readership. We hope that once this book reaches your hands you will be able to prepare yourselves mentally and spiritually and feel doubly exalted and inspired in the invocation of the Mother. May the blessings of the Divine Mother be the portals in our pathway to the arena of worship – this is the ardent prayer of Her children.

Download or read book Life Truth in its Various Perspectives written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is truth? This fascinating spectrum of studies into the various rationalities of our human dealings with life - psychological, aesthetic, economic, spiritual - reveals their joints and calls for a new approach to truth. Putting both classical and contemporary conceptions aside, we find the primogenital ground of truth in the networks of correspondences, adequations, relevancies, and rationales at work in life's becoming. Does this plurivocal differentiation mean that the status of truth is relative? On the contrary, submits Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka, given the universal significance of the crucial instrument of the logos of life, "truth is the vortex of life's ontopoietic unfolding".

Download or read book The Orchestration of the Arts — A Creative Symbiosis of Existential Powers written by M. Kronegger and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 477 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Regardless of the subject matter, our studies are always searching for a sense of the universal in the specific. Drawing, etchings and paintings are a way of communicating ideas and emotions. The key word here is to communicate. Whether the audience sees the work as laborious or poetic depends on the creative genius of the artist. Some painters use the play of light passing through a landscape or washing over a figure to create an evocative moment that will be both timeless and transitory. The essential role of art remains what is has always been, a way of human expression. This is the role that our participants concentrate on as they discuss art as the expression of the spirit, a creative act through which the artist makes manifest what is within him. Spirit suggests the unity of feeling and thought. Avoiding broad generalities, our participants address specific areas in orchestration with music, architecture, literature and phenomenology. Profs. Souiller, Scholz, Etlin, Sweetser, Josephs show us at what point art is an intimate, profound expression and the magic of a civilization as a whole, springing from its evolving thoughts and embodying ideals, such as the Renaissance, the Baroque, Modernism and at what point it reflects the trans formation of a particular society and its mode of life.

Download or read book Sharing Poetic Expressions written by Anna-Teresa Tymieniecka and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2011-05-03 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A world ever more extensively interlinked is calling out for serving human interests broader and more compelling than those inspiring our technological welfare. The interface between cultures – at the moment especially between the Occident and Islam – presents challenges to mutual understandings and calls for restoring the resources of our human beings forgotten in the struggle of competition and rivalry at the vital spheres of existence. In the evolutionary progress of the living beings the strictly vital concerns, emotions, attributes become sublimed and elevated to the spiritual sphere at which human beings encounter each other and share. Studies presented here bring forth sublimity, generosity, forgiveness, beauty, and are exalting the quest after ciphers and symbols which lead to our sharing the common deepest stream of fraternal reality.
