The multi-dimensional aspect of the characters found in the Hindu spiritual world is unlike any other. The Hindu Gods and Goddesses embody both positive as well as negative characteristics.

Realtà molteplice e multiforme, in cui coesistono le più diverse posizioni, l'induismo è più una cultura in senso antropologico che una religione: non si rifà a un fondatore originario, reale o mitico, non ha un contenuto dottrinale unitario, né una chiesa, né dogmi. Del resto gli induisti preferiscono parlare di "sanatana dharma", la legge eterna dell'universo, piuttosto che di religione. A questo mondo, affascinante e misterioso, in cui molti concetti per noi fondamentali, come quelli di tempo e di natura, acquistano significati diversi, è dedicato questo audiolibro.

Learn about the history of the Dalai Lama with iMinds insightful knowledge series.

The story of Yayati is perhaps one of the most intriguing and fascinating episodes of Mahabharata. Yayati was a great scholar and one of the noblest rulers of olden times. He followed the shastras and was devoted to the welfare of his subjects. Even the king of gods, Indra, held him in high esteem. Married to seductively beautiful Devyani, in love with her maid Sharmishtha, and father of five sons from two women, Yayati unabashedly declared, 'My lust for pleasure is unsatisfied'. His quest for the carnal continued.

La libertad primera y última es considerado por muchos como el mejor libro de Krishnamurti.

Y la respuesta es que no se trata de un sistema de creencias, ni de un catálogo de dogmas, ni de un repertorio de ideas, ni de una clase de yoga; lo esencial es trascender los símbolos y alcanzar la libertad de cada instante. Esta libertad surge con la superación del ego, pero también de los "sistemas" de pensamiento organizado.

Hindu mythology abounds with fascinating gods, goddesses and characters whose visual representations—through calendar art—are equally colourful. Hindu calendar art may seem fantastic and kitsch, but it is in fact the most democratic expression of a mythic imagery that was once restricted to temple walls and palm leaf manuscripts. These portraits of the Hindu pantheon of gods and the stories that surround them can be found on the walls and puja rooms of almost every Hindu household in India. Rich in symbols, each image is a piece of an ancient metaphysical jigsaw puzzle.

One of the three Gods of Trinity in Hinduism is Lord Vishnu, also called the Lord of the world. In mythological texts, Vishnu is considered as the 10 incarnations of Dashavtar. Shri Ram and Shri Krishna are his most important incarnations.
