GREEN KNIGHT MULTIMEDIA PODCAST

By: Reza Shah-Kazemi
  • Summary

  • ::From Mythology to Cosmology and Spirituality:: The best way of encapsulating the central motif, the particular constellation of ideas that motivated the production of this company and the philosophy underlying this project is the following quotation from one of our great teachers Dr. Martin Lings, otherwise known as Shaykh Abū Bakr Sirāj al-Dīn, who died in 2005 at the age of 96 ; “Our aim is to express some of the universal truths which lie at the heart of all religions” quoted from the preface of his book The Book of Certainty. Part of our aim and part of what driven us is trying to re-present the legacy of Dr. Lings and there by the Perennial Philosophy in the English language with the emphasis of the audio access. We want people to be able to hear on themes of perennial philosophy , comparative religion, and the deeper aspect of the mystical path in the traditions and to do this in a way that will be accessible on the internet through the spoken word with the emphasis of going back to tradition. In a certain way this new medium can be used in a postmodern way to actually go back to the pre-modern realities, to traditional realities and to traditional ways of expressing this wonderful truth that have been giving to all of us by the Almighty through all of our traditions and cultures.

  • Śiva and Brahmā in the Mahābhārata - Dominique Wohlschlag
    Aug 8 2024
    A Conversation with Dominique Wohlschlag

    In this dialogue, Reza asks Dominique a particular question about the

    roles of Śiva and Brahmā in the Mahābhārata. Additionally, he inquires

    why we refer to Vaiṣṇavites and Śivaites but don’t seem to have a

    corresponding category of Brahmānites.

    Dominique Wohlschlag is a specialist in medieval romance languages

    and previously taught Latin at the Collège de Genève. With an extensive

    background in Indian studies, he has offered courses on Sanskrit and

    Indian Civilization at various Swiss institutions and has worked with

    the Geneva Ethnography Museum. His scholarly contributions include three

    translations of Indian poets (Jayadeva, Bhartrihari, Vidyâkara) and

    numerous interpretative analyses of Hindu scriptures. In addition,

    Wohlschlag has also written several books on the Hindu tradition with

    two of them available in the link below for those interested in

    exploring this rich tradition further.
