The void thus created in the Indian religious thought was filled by the epics of the Ramayai3a of Valmiki as well as the Mahabharata. But besides these, the Puranas which were composed by the sage Vyasa and other sages gained the importance of their own. Some of them were devoted to Visnu, while others were devoted to Siva, Sakti as well as the other deities. Of these, Siva Purana and the... Read More

Preface I was inspired to take up the study of the puranas by Late professor H. D. Velankar. The inspiration that he gave continued to be with me right through the completion of this work.

Student for the " Critical study of the Padma-purana with special reference to Religious Rites and Ceremonies".

A few preliminary remarks on the history, scope and contents of the Garuda Puranam may be necessary. The Garuda Puranam may be safely described similar work to the Agni Puranam. Each of them treats of Para Vidya and Apara vidya secular knowledge and metaphysical truths, and partakes more of the nature of a catechism of the then prevailing Brahmananism, or of what a Brahmana was required to know at the time, than of the Puranam proper, at least if we may be admitted to look upon the Ramayana or the Rules of Pancha Sandhis, etc., the Guruda Puranam like its...

The first two khaas of the Brahmavaivarta Puraa (BvP) deal with Brahma and Prakti respectively. Both introduce the theology that enables Ka to be treated as identical to the supreme Brahma and as Viu/ Narayaa in all his forms. Ultimately everything goes back to Ka as the source of power and being, even including the mother goddesses who are so prolific in the text, not just in its second khaa. The fourth and final that treats the mythology of Ka himself, with a focus on his birth, and just before this comes the Gaapatikhaa (GKh). GKh is one of the... Read More
