Caitanya Vaisnava Philosophy
In the sixteenth century, the saint and scholar Sri Caitanya set in motion a wave of devotion to Krishna that began in eastern India and has now found its way around the world. Caitanya taught that the highest aim of life is to develop selfless love for God Krishna, the blue-hued cowherd boy who spoke the Bhagavad Gita. Although only a handful of poetry is attributed to Caitanya, his devotional theology was expounded and systematized by his followers in a vast array of poetical, philosophical, and ritual literature. This book provides a thematic study of Caitanya Vaishnava philosophy, introducing key thinkers and ideas in the early tradition, using Sanskrit and Bengali sources that have seldom been studied in English. The book addresses major areas of the tradition, including epistemology, ontology, aesthetics, ethics, and history, and every chapter includes relevant readings from primary sources.
Māyā in the Bhāgavata Purāṇa
Maya is one of the most fascinating and enigmatic concepts in Indian philosophy, encompassing mystery, illusion, devotion, and indeed, the world itself. Maya is found throughout Hindu texts, from the earliest scriptures, such as the Rg - Veda, up to the most recent. This book explores maya's rich conceptual history, and then focuses on the highly developed theology of maya found in the Sanskrit Bhagavata Purana, one of the most influential Hindu sacred texts. Gopal K. Gupta examines maya's role in the Bhagavata, paying special attention to its relationship with human suffering (dukkha) and divine play (lila). While Indian traditions typically see maya as a negative force that mires living beings in the phenomenal world, Gupta explores how the Bhagavata identifies maya as the divine feminine and affirms that maya also has a positive role, as maya is ultimately meant to draw living beings toward God (Krishna) and intensify their love for him.

In Branding Bhakti, Nicole Karapanagiotis considers the new branding of the Hare Krishna Movement, or the International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON). Known primarily for their orange robes, shaved heads, ecstatic dancing on the streets, and exuberant Hindu-style temple worship, many contemporary ISKCON groups are radically reinventing their public presentation and their style of worship in order to attract a global audience to their movement. Karapanagiotis explores their innovative and complex ...
