In the Hindu tradition Kapila is admired and worshipped as a philosopher a divinity an Avatara of Visnu and as a powerful ascetic. This book is the first monographic study of this important figure. The book deals with Kapila in the Veda the Sramana traditions the epics and the Puranas in the Samkhya system of religious thought and in the ritual traditions of many contemporary Hindu traditions. Kapila is an important figure in the sacred geography of India and the study of the ritual and narrative traditions of the Tirthas of Kapila is an important contribution of this book. The book also contains a translation into English of the text Kapilasurisamvada Kapila's teaching of Asuri found in a few manuscripts of the southern recession of the Mahabharata. Kapila refers to pluralistic phenomenon. The Kapilas in the Hindu tradition cannot be reduced to a single figure. In general pluralism characterises the religious traditions and religious life in South Asia ancient medieval modern as well as contemporary.

The approach of the book therefore is pluralistic. 250 pp.…

First edition. Octavo. xxiv, 513, (3)pp. Including list of Numen book series. Index. Plus 14 pages of black & white photographic plates. Pictorial boards with lilac/gray spine lettered in white. A fine but ex-library copy (with minimal markings; i.e. rubber stamps on title page & bottom of text block). This volume deals with a phenomenon of increasing global significance, the South Asian diaspora. In particular it deals with the role of religion. The diversity of religious life in South Asia is remarkable and much of this diversity is replicated in the diaspora communities around the world. The case studies in this book explore and analyze the social, religious and cultural reality of people in the diaspora belonging to Jainism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Christianity, Islam, Sikhism and Zoroastrianism and originating from four of the South Asian nation states (India, Pakistan, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka). The book highlights the religious diversity that exists in the diaspora communities both across the traditions and within the particular religions. (Publisher) Contents: The Jain plate / A.
