Aus dem Buch: "Indien erzählt sich den Mythos vom Könige Mutschukunda, dem vorzeitlichen Helden, der über Weltalter hin in einer Höhle schlief. Sein Vater Mandhatar kam auf wunderbare Weise zur Welt und ward vom Götterkönige Indra selbst mit seinem göttlichen Finger genährt; zu indragleicher Größe unter den Königen der Menschen bestimmt, sog er sich an dem Zeigefinger des Gottes groß, denn keine Mutter nährte ihn, da er von keiner Mutter kam. Ihn mußte sein Vater hundert Herbste lang austragen, bis er ihm aus der linken Flanke brach: der Kinderlose hatte versehentlich das Zauberwasser ausgetrunken, das Priester für seine Frau bereitet hatten, auf daß sie fruchtbar werde."
A landmark work that demystifies the rich tradition of Indian art, Myths and Symbols in Indian Art and Civilization analyzes key motifs found in legend, myth, and folklore taken directly from the Sanskrit. It provides a comprehensive introduction to visual thinking and picture reading in Indian art and thought. Ultimately, the book shows that profound Hindu and Buddhist intuitions on the riddles of life and death are universally recognizable.
Examines the diverse cultural influences which have shaped the basic philosophical traditions of India.
Places the position of the Buddhist Tantras within Mahayana Buddhism and recalls their early literary history, especially the Guhyasamahatantra. This title also covers Buddhist Genesis and the Tantric tradition. It explores the Tantric teachings of the inner Zodiac and the fivefold ritual symbolism of passion.
Drawing on both Eastern and Western literature, this is an anthology of stories linked by the theme of conflict with the forces of evil. Beginning with a tale from the "Arabian Nights", this theme unfolds in stories from early Hinduism, Irish paganism, the Arthurian cycle and other legends.
