The Linga And The Great Goddess (Hb)-Swami Karpatri
| Swami
Karpatri (1907-82), a revered contemporary sannyasin of exceptional
personality, was renowned for his deep scriptural knowledge, which he used in
his many writings and speeches to light up the Hindu orthodox point of view.
The two significant articles presented here deal with the meaning of the
Linga and the nature of the Great Goddess. Besides doctrinal and mythological
clarifications, we find a sophisticated debate about the nature of Sakti
between two traditional schools: Nyaya and Mimamsa, which could be compared
with those held in the times of Adi Sankara. This bilingual edition (Hindi–English) presents a new translation — the fruit of a collective work — besides the original text in Devanagari, in the first book by Svami Karpatri published in English. The notes explain the philosophical parts or reveal misleading interpolations and omissions commited by the first translator of these articles, Alain Daniélou. Prefaced by His Holiness Jagadguru Shankaracarya of Dvarakapitha and Jyotispitha, Svami Svarupananda Sarasvati, who was a close companion of Svami Karpatri, this book clarifies many fundamental thoughts of Sanatana Dharma related to Siva and Sakti. |
