The Private Companion; Being a Familiar and Historical Elucidation of the Theory and Practice of Alchemy, Necromancy, Astrology ... By Merlin Secundus
Treatise on the Elucidation of the Knowable, The; The Cycle of the Formation of the Schismatic Doctrines
Author: ʼPhags-pa Blo-gros-rgyal-mtshan
Publisher: BDK America
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 210
Book Description
There are two titles in this volume. The Treatise on the Elucidation of the Knowable was written in the Yuan Period by the Tibetan 'Phags-pa for the Chinese Crown Prince at the time as an outline of Buddhist thought, and deals with such subjects as the Buddhist view of life and Buddhist cosmology. The teachings set forth are based on the whole on the Abhidharmakosa-bhasya, but there are also to be found ideas peculiar to this work. The title, "Treatise on the Clarification of What is to be Known," implies that all teachings which it is necessary to know are made clear by the contents of this work. It was originally written in either Tibetan or Mongolian, but only the Chinese translation is extant. The Cycle of the Formation of the Schismatic Doctrines describes the course of the so-called 'Basic Schism' of Buddhism into the Theravada and Mahasamghika Schools, which took place over 100 years after the death of Sakyamuni, and the subsequent division of the Hinayana into 20 minor sects. It is written from the standpoint of the Sarvastivadins, but also describes in detail the doctrinal characteristics of the other sects. This work is thus not only indispensable in the study of the history of sectarian division in Buddhism, but, when one considers that the majority of extant doctrinal treatises of Hinayana belong to the Sarvastivadins, it is also an invaluable source of material in the elucidation of the tenets of sects other than the Sarvastivadins.

Book Description
In order to free society from the clutches of misleading religion rituals, Swamiji compiled a book - ‘Shanka Samadhan’ (Doubts and clarifications). In this book, Swamiji has resolved the prevailing pretentious rituals by giving references of the discourses of the great saints and sages as well as citing the dictates of the Srimad Bhagavad Gita, the Ramayana and the Purana on topics such as Who should be Worshiped, Religious Rituals (Karmkand), Havan, Yagya (Sacrificial Action), Celibacy, Gayatri, Yuga Dharma, Non-violence (Ahimsa), Sin and Righteousness, Santana Dharma, Varna (Caste System and its Classification), Vipra, Arya, Protection of Cows (Gau Raksha) etc. Essence of Sciences: - In the whole of the Universe, there is only one Religion (Dharma) – attainment of the immortal principle, peace forever, unbound happiness and it all begins with the faith in the Almighty. - Truth is the only Almighty. That what refutes this Truth cannot be called a religion (dharma). If the religion (dharma) does not have this truth then it will become meaningless. - Any body who has the unfaltering faith in the Almighty and recognises Ram or Om as the sign of the same thus chants the name is purely religious even if he does not know what the religion (dharma) is. - That what is forever, un-transformable, ancient, is the religion (dharma) and that what is there today but will not be there tomorrow, destructible is not religion. - There is a single Religion (Dharma) in the Universe. The strife to seek that forever being Almighty is the Religion (Dharma). If there are two almighties then He will need another Universe – to fulfil the same.

The Highest Good in Kant’s Philosophy
Author: Thomas Höwing
Publisher: Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG
ISBN: 3110392747
Category : Philosophy
Languages : en
Pages : 251
Book Description
The idea of a final end of human conduct – the highest good – plays an important role in Kant’s philosophy. Unlike his predecessors Kant defines the highest good as a combination of two heterogeneous elements, namely virtue and happiness. This conception lies at the centre of some of the most influential Kantian doctrines such as his famous “moral argument” for the rationality of faith, his conception of the unity of reason and his views concerning the final end of nature as well as the historical progress of mankind. To be sure, the different treatments of the highest good in Kant’s work have led to a great deal of discussion among his readers. Besides Kant’s arguments for moral faith, recent debate has focused on the place of the highest good within Kant’s moral theory, on the antinomy of pure practical reason, and on the idea of the primacy of practical reason. This collection of new essays attempts to re-evaluate Kant’s doctrine of the highest good and to determine its relevance for contemporary philosophy.

Publisher: Edward Elgar Publishing
ISBN:
Category : Business & Economics

This edition of a hitherto unknown work demonstrates the importance of utilitarianism to liberal thinking on taxation. As such, this unique book will appeal to specialists in the history of economic thought and to historians, especially those with an interest in the history of public finance, an area in which G.W. Norman's contribution has been almost entirely overlooked.
