Siddhis (Supernatural Powers)
Author: Prof. (Dr.) Jai Paul Dudeja
Publisher: Notion Press
ISBN:
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 222
Book Description
The Sanskrit word for ‘Siddhi’ means “perfection,” “accomplishment” or “success”. It refers to the fact that siddhis are the fruit of the perfect achievement of spiritual practices. Siddhis are generally the powers to control the self, control others and control the natural world. Although siddhis appear to be supernatural, they are actually accessible to all humans in this birth itself. They arise naturally when, through spiritual practices etc., the emptiness and openness of the mind is realized.A Siddha means ‘realized, perfected person,’ a term generally applied to a practitioner who has, through his practice, realized his dual goals of siddhis and body-immortality. The most authentic text sources for attaining Siddhis are: (i) ‘Yoga Sutras of Patanjali’, (ii) Srimad Bhagavantam, and (iii) Kashmir Shaivism (in Hinduism); (iv) ‘The Visuddhimagga’ (the Path of Purification), through Kasina Meditation (in Buddhism), (v) ‘Atma Siddhi Shastra’, (in Jainism), which includes Labdhis, and (vi) ‘Sri Guru Granth Sahib’ (in Sikhism), besides many other texts like Hanuman Chalisa, Samkhya Philosophy etc. These concepts of Siddhis, are explained in details, in this book consisting of twelve chapters. The book is strongly supported by over 110 verses in Sanskrit (shlokas) along with their Roman script, translation and explanation in English language. This Book is humbly dedicated to Maharishi Patanjali, Author of Patanjali Yoga Sutras.

The Ninth Siddhi
Author: Larry Vingelman
Publisher: Ninth Siddhi Publishing llc
ISBN: 1478108568
Category : Games & Activities
Languages : en
Pages : 159
Book Description
Although the book was originally published in 2012, the book has been completely rewritten and republished in 2018. Also, the book has been updated for recent scientific discoveries. Can World Peace be obtained through a technology that supports an invincible force based on a transcendental source of energy? Is humanity's world view approaching a paradigm shift of unprecedented proportions? Are our concepts about reality and human nature about to bridge the gap between ancient wisdom and modern science? The Ninth Siddhi: Preparing for a technological Solution for World Peace illustrates and answers these questions. Today, violence is palpable around the world. Unstable nuclear enabled regimes taunt and threaten large nation states with annihilation. Religious madmen kill and murder indiscriminately in the streets of Europe and North America. In the United States, school children armed with military weaponry kill and maim other school children for no apparent reason. The Ninth Siddhi advocates for a new path to a nonviolent world. A path without automatic weapons, chemical bombs, or nuclear missiles. It is clear that gun laws, sanctions, diplomacy, or the strongest political action will not bring peace to the world. Reason will not prevail. A new path is necessary that leads all loving families to a nonviolent world and a more peaceful ideology. The technological solution for world peace is dependent on activating and inspiring world populations to walk this path together. The new technology actualizes ancient wisdom from antiquity which states that when war, suffering, and terror grow, an invincible force of nature moves to set man's vision right and establish a way of life, living, and loving, that again will fulfill the high purpose of human existence.

Prejudice, Discrimination and Racism against Africans and Siddhis in India
Author: Ibrahima Diallo
Publisher: Cambridge Scholars Publishing
ISBN: 1527549151
Category : Social Science
Languages : en
Pages : 149
Book Description
Africa and India have a long history of people-to-people contact, as well as cultural, educational and economic exchanges based on mutual interests. They also share imperial and post-imperial experiences. The longstanding relations between the two continents experienced a new twist and a giant leap forward following the Africa-India summit in 2008. However, recently a series of violent incidents against the growing sub-Saharan African communities in India has taken centre stage and made global news headlines: the Indian and international media have portrayed violent and deadly assaults on sub-Saharan Africans in India as prejudice, discrimination, and racism. This book provides a collection of studies that examine prejudice, discrimination, and racism towards Blackness in India with a special focus on the lived experiences of sub-Saharan Africans and Siddhis (Afro-Indians). In addition, the topics in this volume cover ideological, cultural, and linguistic affinities between Africa and India. The volume is divided into four parts of two chapters each: the first two chapters introduce the focus of the book on sub-Saharan Africans living in India. These are followed by two contributions that examine prejudice, discrimination, and racism towards Africans and Siddhis. Two further essays theorise prejudice and racism in India and the ways they are experienced by sub-Saharan Africans and Siddhis. The final two chapters of the book explore ideological, linguistic, and cultural affinities between India and Africa. The volume also features contributions by two prominent Africanists. The Foreword is written by Professor Souleymane Bachir Diagne, the Director of the Institute of African Studies at Columbia University. Professor Diagne was awarded the Edouard Glissant Prize for his work in 2011 and the Frantz Fanon Lifetime Achievement Award in 2018. The Afterword is authored by Professor Aparajita Biswas, the former Director of the Centre for African Studies at the University of Mumbai and the current President of the African Studies Association of India. Professor Biswas is one of India’s most respected Africanists with an extensive publication record on African topics and numerous teaching, research and fellowship positions in universities across the world.
