Book Synopsis Ánanda Sútram: The Yoga Sutras of Ánandamúrti by : Shrii Shrii Anandamurti
Download or read book Ánanda Sútram: The Yoga Sutras of Ánandamúrti written by Shrii Shrii Anandamurti. This book was released on 2019-02-10. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Yoga Sutras are not only ancient texts from other centuries, nor are they excluded to the commonly known texts such as those of Patainjali. Here you will find a series of sutras from the 20th century, illuminating one with yogic wisdom for the modern world. Essential reading for any serious student of yoga or Eastern philosophy. Shrii Shrii Ánandamúrti dictated the original Bengali Ánanda Sútram to a close devotee as they sat, in a series of night sessions in 1961, on the tiger's grave in Jamalpur that Ánandamúrtijii and the devotees used to frequent. The devotee wrote by the light of a candle. Sometimes the candle flame was sheltered by a glass drinking tumbler as a sort of makeshift lantern. Ánanda Sútram means, in part, "aphorisms leading to ánanda, divine bliss." The sútra form has been valued over the centuries as a powerful tool for communicating a deep philosophy in a condensed, memorable way. The literal meaning of sútra is "thread," implying that numerous jewels of thought can be strung on a single such thread. In the best traditions of sútra literature, the eighty-five sútras of this book serve, with breathtaking conciseness, as a framework for the entire Ananda Marga ideology.

Book Synopsis Violence and New Religious Movements by : James R. Lewis
Download or read book Violence and New Religious Movements written by James R. Lewis. This book was released on 2011-04-06. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The relationship between new religious movements (NRMs) and violence has long been a topic of intense public interest--an interest heavily fueled by multiple incidents of mass violence involving certain groups. Some of these incidents have made international headlines. When New Religious Movements make the news, it's usually because of some violent episode. Some of the most famous NRMs are known much more for the violent way they came to an end than for anything else. Violence and New Religious Movements offers a comprehensive examination of violence by-and against-new religious movements. The book begins with theoretical essays on the relationship between violence and NRMs and then moves on to examine particular groups. There are essays on the "Big Five"--the most well-known cases of violent incidents involving NRMs: Jonestown, Waco, Solar Temple, the Aum Shunrikyo subway attack, and the Heaven's Gate suicides. But the book also provides a richer survey by examining a host of lesser-known groups. This volume is the culmination of decades of research by scholars of New Religious Movements.
