Goddess - Hinduism.
Hinduism is a complex of various belief systems that sees many gods and goddesses as being representative of and/or emanative from a single source, Brahman, understood either as a formless, infinite, impersonal monad in the Advaita tradition or as a dual God in the form of Lakshmi-Vishnu, Radha-Krishna, Devi-Shiva in Dvaita traditions. Shaktas, worshippers of the Goddess, equate this God with Devi, the mother goddess. Such aspects of One God as male God (Shaktiman) and female energy (Shakti), ...

| | | | | Devi: Encyclopedia II - Brahman - Enlightenment and Brahman While Brahman lies behind the sum total of the objective universe, some human minds boggle at any attempt to explain it with only the tools provided by reason. Brahman is beyond the senses, beyond the mind, beyond intelligence, beyond imagination. Indeed, the highest idea is that Brahman is beyond both existence and non-existence, transcending and including time, causation and space, and thus can never be known in the same material sense as one t ...

| | | | | | Devi: Encyclopedia II - Shiva - Introduction Shiva is One and Shiva is all. A very precise and lucid explanation of Siva is contained in Mandukya Upanishad. His is the three states of waking, dreaming, and dream less sleep for enjoyment. But He is that which is indescribable, non-changing, non-dual, ever blissful progenitor of the three states. In short: the Self of all. He is the fourth state called Turiya:
"The Fourth is thought of as that which is not conscious of the internal world, nor conscious of the external world, nor conscious of both the worlds, nor dense with conscio ...

| | | | | | Devi: Encyclopedia II - Satyajit Ray - Creative Career In 1949, before he decided to make films, Ray met the great French director Jean Renoir who visited Calcutta to scout locations for his film The River (1950). Renoir encouraged Ray to make films and this was part of the motivation that led to the making of Pather Panchali.
Partway through filming he ran out of funds; the Government of West Bengal loaned him the rest, allowing him to finish the film. The money was loaned on record for 'roads improvement' (Pather panchali translates as 'song of the road') The film was successful both ar ...

| | | | | Devi: Encyclopedia II - Pantheism - Pantheistic concepts in religion
Pantheism - Hinduism.
In Hindu theology Moksha and achieving godness is the ultimate, both transcendent and immanent, the absolute infinite existence, the sum total of all that ever is, was, or ever shall be. As the sun has rays of light which emanate from the same source, the same holds true for the multifaceted aspects of God emanating from Brahman, like many colors of the same prism. This concept of God is of one unity, with the individual personal Gods being aspects of the One; thus, different deities are seen by different adherents as particularly well suited to their worship. Pan ...

| | | | | Devi: Encyclopedia II - Ramakrishna - Biography Historically, in India, emphasis is given to the teachings of saints and insufficient attention is paid to dates and details. In the case of Ramakrishna though, we have authentic accounts of his life and times. This was possible because many of his disciples were well educated and had a strong desire to present only facts that could be verified from multiple sources. The main credit for collecting and recording such facts goes to Swami Saradananda, a disciple of the Master. He wrote an authoritative biography to sift the facts from the legen ...

Judaism, Christianity and Islam see God as a being who created the world and rules over the universe.

It appears that Exodus 36:35 And he made a veil of blue, and purple, and scarlet, and fine twined linen: with cherubim made he it of cunning work. is evidence enough to show that Exodus 20:4 Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth is not to be taken literally - indeed that it is laudable to make likenesses of cherubim for instance, so long as one does not make the mistake of ...

| | | | | Devi: Encyclopedia II - Maya illusion - Maya in Hinduism See also: Maya_(Hinduism) In Vedic philosophy, maya (Sanskrit: ma: not, ya: this) is the illusion of a limited, purely physical and mental reality in which our everyday consciousness has become entangled, a veiling of the true, unitary Self, also known as Brahman. Maya originated in the Hindu scriptures known as the Upanishads. Many philosphies or religions seek to "pierce the veil" in order to glimpse the transcendent truth, from which the illusion of a physical reality springs, drawing from the idea that ...

| | | | | Devi: Encyclopedia II - Monotheism - Origins in Abrahamic or Middle East religions Worship of a single god within a pantheon and the abolition of all others may be monotheism, as in the case of the Aten cult in the reign of the Egyptian pharaoh Akhenaten, under the chiefly influence of the Eastern-originating Nefertiti. Iconoclasm during this pharaoh's rule is considered a chief origin for Abrahamic destruction of idols, holding no other God before the preferred deity (dually and subtly acknowledging the existence of the other gods, but only as foes to be destroyed for their drawing of attention away from the primary deity ...
