Integrating, as it does, a large variety of heterogeneous elements, it constitutes a very complex but largely continuous whole, covering every aspect of life: religious, philosophic, social, economic, literary, artistic Unlike the worlds other major faiths, Hinduism has not grown as a perspective religion, but rather as a way of life: in myriad manifestations, myriad moods. And, inevitably, in rhetoric, terminology as well-because Hindu contexts (far from being static), have been devolutionary, even a bit too metamorphic ! This 6-volume Dictionary tries to spell out the Hindu phraseology, contexts in all their changing nuancest-through pre-Paninian, Paninian, Classical, post-Classical and pre-Medieval ages, with essentials of the pristine spiritual culture of the subcontinent, called Hinduism. Dictionary of Hinduism: Volumes 2-5, sets out Sanskrit and Vernacular words, terms, phrases: in Romanized letters, with their meanings, explanations in easy-to-understand English. Classifying the entire vocabulary stock by a vast range of themes, topics of intimate relevance, among others, to Hindu religion, sacred writings, philosophy, arts, literature, culture and society; the author has incorporated each lexical item here in the Word Index (volume 6), with cross-references to facilitate its location in the main body of the compilation.

Also included here numerous illustrations: black and white photographs and line-drawings, highlighting the Hindu way of life in its diversity; ranging from mundane, everyday pre-occupations of the Hindus to their creative expression in art and architecture.</p>...647260Concise Classified Dictionary of Hinduism: In Search of Mukti-Brahman11151548https://www.gandhi.com.mx/concise-classified-dictionary-of-hinduism-volume-5-in-search-of-mukti-brahman/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/1391950/eec4eb82-7cde-475d-80f9-b427680fe4a0.jpg?v=638338032751300000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20019789354396991_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_<p>Defying a precise definition, Hinduism (a term introduced by English writers in 1830s), properly denotes the Indian Civilization-with a chequered history of over five millennia.
