Exploring the relationship between Bhakti, Bhakta, and Yoga in the Prabodhcandroday Nāṭak by Brajvāsīdās
No full textThis 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

No full textLifting of vector-valued automorphic forms
No full textRecently, the first author [1] showed that the admissible vector-valued
automorphic forms lift to the admissible ones. In this article, we study the
lifts for the logarithmic vector-valued automorphic forms and explicitly
compute the Fourier coefficients of the lifted vector-valued automorphic forms.Comment: 20 pages, revised following referee's suggestion
A Systematic Literature Review on Immigrants' Motivation for ICT Adoption and Use
No full textSeveral studies demonstrate that immigrants use computers and the Internet more than non-immigrants or earlier immigrants. What motivates immigrants to use information and communication technology (ICT)? What are the factors that influence immigrants' ICT behaviors? For this study, the author chose 20 peer-reviewed articles published between 2001 and 2015 to study immigrants' motivations for ICT adoption and use. The following article will discuss two motives for immigrants' ICT use, as well as identify seven factors influencing adoption, non-adoption, use, and non-use. </jats:p

Mapping the Research productivity in University of Petroleum and Energy Studies: A scientometric approach
No full textThis study showcases the escalation of research productivity of UPES (University of Petroleum and Energy Studies), Dehradun for the time span of 10 years from 2008 to 2017. In total 892 publications has been retrieved from the Scopus database. Amongst them, 54.82 % are research articles published in scholarly journals and 36.32 % in Conference proceedings. This paper also highlights the research fraternity of UPES who all are active in the research domain, their collaborative works, their productivity in terms of publications, journal citations etc. Findings also reveal that the International Journal of Applied Engineering Research is the most preferred journal and Kumar, A. is the most productive author and has made the highest number of publications
