Details of the book
The Philosophical and Theological Teachings of the Padmasamhita Silvia Schwarz Linder Author

This work is the first monograph devoted entirely to the Padmasamhita(PadS), a Sanskrit text of South Indian origin composed between the 12th and 13th centuries AD and belonging to the vaisnava tantric religious tradition of the Pañcaratra. The study focuses on the philosophical and theological teachings of the PadS, as well as on the place of yoga in the religious life and ritual practice of the pañcaratrin. In the field of theology, the PadS's concept of the manifestation of the Supreme Being in its three forms (rupa) - namely the Highest Vasudeva, spirit (purusa) and matter (prakrti) - is shown to be influenced by Yadavapraka?a (Ramanuja's teacher) and his idea of the unfolding of brahman in its three particular concretizations (amsa). The relational aspect of the godhead, actualized as the presence of God in meditation and ritual worship, is also analyzed and elucidated in its theological aspects. A major topic of discussion is the doctrine of liberation and the harmonization in the PadS of an older idea of liberation (consisting of four states related to the social rank of the devotees respectively) with a later concept of liberation as a union between individual souls and the Supreme Soul. The second part of the work, which is devoted to yoga, discusses the function of the yogic disciplines in the yoga-permeated ritual system of the PadS and the importance of yogic meditation in the religious life, with particular regard to the psychological and salvific aspects of the experience of Samadhi. Finally, a ritual practice of yogic suicide is discussed: the evidence provided by both Pañcaratra and Saiva texts testifies to the existence of a tradition that teaches yogic suicide by means of basically similar methods. In the PadS this ritual practice can be performed by the sadhaka who, by taking advantage of a specific power (siddhi), chooses to put an end to his own life in order to hasten his final emancipation.
