The Advaitic Theism Of The Bhāgavata Purāṇa

Daniel P. Sheridan

4.9/5 (15740 ratings)

Description:Within a compass of eight chapters of this volume the author makes a close examination of the fundamental tenets of Bhāgavata Purāṇa. By penetrating analysis he shows how as a unified scripture Bhāgavata Purāṇa combines Vedāntic non-dualism and Vaiṣṇava devotionalism; and how the Bhāgavata non-dualism accommodates the reality of the universe and of the individual selves in it within the all-encompassing reality of Brahman. According to the author, this wonderful blending of devotionalism and non-dualism in the Bhāgavata Purāṇa finds its expression in the worship of Kṛṣṇa as transcendent and supreme deity by all Vaiṣṇavas.Discussion and delineation throughout the chapters single out 'each of the major forces' determining 'the religious structure of the Bhāgavata which has a significance and meaning for the study of religion beyond that of situating a scriptural text within a religious history'.The present scholarly work will be of special appeal to the students of Indian religion and philosophy. It will also find place in the bookshelves of the general reader interested in Indian history and culture.Daniel P. Sheridan studied at St. John's and Fordham Universities in New York and graduated in Theology and History of Religions. He has written a number of scholarly research papers. Some of them were published in "Purāṇa" (Varanasi), "Journal of Dharma" (Bangalore), "Horizons" (Villanova), "Studies in Formative Spirituality" (Pittsburgh), "Anima" (Pennsylvania), "The Journal of Religion" (Chicago) and "The Thomist" (Washington D.C.)
