    No full text
    In this paper, author outlines one possible influence in the development of the doctrine of Bhakti-Marga (a devotional type of worship in Hinduism) as presented in the Bhagavad-Gita (a Hindu philosophical text). This possible influence in the development of Bhakti-Marga is that of Brahmanic reaction to Buddhism. Of course, Buddhism is not the only reason for Bhakti-Marga's development, but author believes that the Gita only formalized Bhakti-Marga, making it acceptable for the social elite and the rising middle class of India

    On Hindu pilgrims and cross -cultural pilgrimage: The hermeneutics of Jarava Lal Mehta

    No full text
    The life and work of Jarava Lal Mehta (1912–1988) exemplifies the religio-philosophical encounter between India and Europe in the second half of the twentieth century. Garnering an international reputation for his work on Martin Heidegger in the 1960s, Mehta\u27s work in the 1970s and 1980s represents aspects of modern Hindu thought seldom encountered in the works of other more popular authors (e.g., Vivekānanda, Radhakrishnan, Gandhi). Mehta\u27s works make at least two significant contributions to contemporary scholarship on hermeneutics and the Hindu tradition. First, Mehta articulates a postcolonial hermeneutics predicated on the rupture of the self through the encounter with the other. Second, he delineates a postmetaphysical interpretation of the Hindu tradition based on the withdrawal of the other found in the classical theme of viraha bhakti, or “love-in-separation.” In this way, Mehta significantly contests not only forms of perennial philosophy committed to the search for a positive universal ground, but also the monistic ontology of Advaita Vedānta so often privileged by both classical and modern Hindu intellectual traditions. To serve these ends, Mehta proposes the model of the “pilgrim” to represent the self\u27s encounter with the irreducible other. He argues that the pilgrim travels out to an other that interminably resists its intentions and representations: the pilgrim is ontologically incomplete and thus reconciled to its death. Mehta\u27s emphasis on the self\u27s rupture and death consequent to its encounter with the other suggests a significant alternative to the philosophical hermeneutic emphasis on the building up of self through such an encounter. Deploying this hermeneutic of the pilgrim in his interpretation of the Hindu tradition, Mehta suggests that the gopī (milkmaid) represents the postmetaphysical self reconciled to the withdrawn other, thereby displacing the monistic ontology of the Vedānta. To fully understand the complex horizon of contemporary Hindu thought, one must consider the life and work of J. L. Mehta

    Desarrollo de un sistema web 2.0 para gestión de contenidos musicales con integración de datos de múltiples fuentes externas

    En los útlimos años ha surgido un nuevo tipo de aplicaciones web que se han denominado Aplicaciones Web 2.0. En este tipo de aplicaciones los usuarios tienen una participación muy activa en comparación con las anteriores aplicaciones en las que los usuarios eran meros espectadores. Actualemente la cantidad de datos y aplicaciones que utilizan los usuarios es mucho mayor debido al desarrollo de la tecnología y la evolución hacia conexiones de banda ancha. Por lo tanto, surge la necesidad de la gestión e integración de los datos del usuario y de los datos de otras aplicaciones en una única aplicación. Este proyecto surge con el objetivo de estudiar varias de las herramientas que permiten reducir la complejidad del desarrollo de aplicaciones de la Web 2.0. En concreto, se presenta el caso de estudio de la creación de una aplicación que permita la gestión de la información musical que proporcionen los usuarios. Esta información estará disponible desde cualquier lugar con conexión a Internet. Además, la aplicación complementará la información proporcionada por los usuarios con información (letras, vídeos, productos relacionados, etc.) obtenida de otras fuentes, constituyendo lo que se denomina un mashup. Este proyecto está constituido por dos aplicaciones: una aplicación de escritorio y una aplicación web. La aplicación de escritorio envía la información del usuario a la aplicación web, y la mantiene sincronizada. La aplicación web permite la consulta y gestión de dicha información, enriquecida con información complementaría proveniente de otras fuentes/aplicaciones. La aplicación web ha sido desarrollada con el framework Ruby on Rails. Con este framework se ha desarrollado una aplicación orientada a REST que facilita la gestión de los recursos de información de los usuarios y la comunicación con la aplicación de escritorio. La aplicación de escritorio se ha desarrollado en Java, y permite tanto procesar la información musical de usuarios del reproductor iTunes y Amarok como obtenerla directamente desde directorios que contengan ficheros de música. ____________________________________________In the last few years, a new kind of Web applications called Web 2.0 Applications has emerged. In these applications users have a very active participation in comparison with previous applications in which users were mere spectators. Nowadays people can use a much higher amount of data and applications thanks to the development of technology and the evolution towards broadband connections. Therefore, the need for the management and integration of user’s data and data from other applications into a single application arises. This project comes up with the aim of studying several of the existing tools that make the reduction of the complexity of Web 2.0 application development possible. Specifically, it presents a case study consisting in the development of an application that enables the management of musical information provided by users. This information will be available from anywhere through an Internet connection. In addition, the application will complement the information provided by users with data obtained from other sources or applications such as lyrics, videos or related products, giving as a result what it is called a mashup. The project consists of a desktop application and a web application. The desktop application sends user information to the web application, and keeps it in sync. TheWeb application allows web consulting and management of such information, enriched with data from other sources/applications. The web application has been developed using the Ruby on Rails framework.With this framework a REST-oriented application has been obtained, making easier the related resource management feedback and the communication with the desktop application. The desktop application has been developed in Java, and allows not only the processing of information from users of music players iTunes and Amarok but also getting it directly from directories that contain music files.Ingeniería de Telecomunicació

    Exploring the relationship between Bhakti, Bhakta, and Yoga in the Prabodhcandroday Nāṭak by Brajvāsīdās

    No full text
    This chapter attempts to uncover the relationship between bhakti, bhaktas and yoga in the Prabodhcandroday nāṭak by Brajvāsīdās. The author, apparently a Vallabhite, retold the allegorical drama in Brajbhāṣā by blending its own peculiar form of Vedānta with bhakti in the 18th century. I analyse the portrayal of nine characters in the text: eight are personifications of the limbs of Patañjali’s yoga; the ninth is Viṣṇubhakti, embodying devotion to Viṣṇu. My investigation reveals that their portrayals are influenced by Patañjala yoga, by central texts of the Vaishnava traditions, such as the Bhāgavata Purāṇa, as well as by hatha yoga. In addition, bhakti values, such as the company of fellow bhaktas, remain central. I suggest that Brajvāsīdās develops such figures to make space for a non-mainstream bhakta yogi, whom he calls vivekī (discerning person), enriching our understanding of the intersections and interactions of bhakti and yoga in early modern times

The Kuda Lumping Taruna Bhakti Tama Group is one of the Kuda Lumping Art groups in Yogyakarta that has a high spirit to maintain and preserve Kuda Lumping. The interesting thing about the Kuda Lumping Taruna Bhakti Tama Group is that they are willing to preserve the Kuda Lumping culture without being paid when many young generations are more interested in foreign cultures. This research uses the theory of symbolic interactionism which explains the concepts of mind, self and society. Then this research uses a qualitative research method with a phenomenological approach. The subjects of this research were four members of the Kuda Lumping Taruna Bhakti Tama dancers. The results of this study are that the Kuda Lumping dancers of Taruna Bhakti Tama interpret Kuda Lumping Art as an art that functions as entertainment and part of the culture of society that is viewed negatively. So that they are motivated to become Kuda Lumping dancers who can entertain the community and eliminate the negative views of society towards Kuda Lumping Art. The Kuda Lumping Taruna Bhakti Tama group sees the function of art as spectacle, order and guidance, so it has established rules that regulate the attitudes of its members to fulfill this function. In this research, the author found a shift in the meaning of the function of Kuda Lumping art according to Kuda Lumping dancer Taruna Bhakti Tama, which was initially seen as a medium for preaching, now only as entertainment, thus reducing the sacredness of this art
