Mah?m?y?: The World as Power: Power as Consciousness (Chit - Shakti)

Paperback. Zustand: New. Language: English. About The Book: "Mah?m?y?; The World as Power: Power as Consciousness (Chit-Shakti)" is a collaborative work by John Woodroffe and Pramatha N?tha Mukhyop?dhy?ya, blending the profound insights of Eastern philosophy with Western scholarly analysis. This book delves into the concept of Mahamaya or the great illusion, exploring how the universe manifests through the dynamic interplay of power and consciousness. Both authors contribute their unique perspectives: Woodroffe, under his pseudonym Arthur Avalon, brings his expertise in Tantric studies, while Mukhyop?dhy?ya offers a modernist Bengali literary approach that challenges traditional narratives. Together, they present a nuanced examination of how power, in the form of divine feminine Shakti, shapes reality through consciousness, providing a significant philosophical and cultural synthesis. About The Author: Sir John George Woodroffe (18651936), also known by his pseudonym Arthur Avalon, was a British orientalist and judge whose work helped illuminate Tantric practices to the Western world. His seminal text, "The Serpent Power: The Secrets of Tantric and Shaktic Yoga," delves into the Kundalini Yoga philosophy and the chakra system, offering detailed interpretations and translations of Sanskrit texts. Woodroffe's writings, which bridge Eastern spiritual traditions and Western scholarly interest, remain influential in the study of Indian Tantra. Pramatha N?tha Mukhyop?dhy?ya, a key figure in Bengal's literary and educational spheres, significantly contributed to early 20th-century educational reforms. Involved with the National Council of Education, Bengal, he aimed to promote indigenous scientific and technical education. He passed away on August 23, 1937, leaving a lasting legacy in literature and education.
