Abstract This review essay offers an enthusiastically positive review of Branka Arsić's Bird Relics: Grief and Vitalism in Thoreau (2016). Arsić gives us a Thoreau who is a pondside Pythagoras, learned and disciplined, with roots deep in Greek and Ionian and Persian and Hindu thought. Her Thoreau is a prophet with a freshly thought-out message about how perpetual mourning drives the perpetual renewal of life, about the importance of disindividualizing, and about the persistence of life at its most basic and elemental level. Arsić shows how, once we learn to see and hear and walk and sit without filters, without metaphors, and without other preconceived containers for pure experience, we can come to see, with Thoreau, that at the most important level, there is no death.

Abstract:
Contemporary Indian society struggles to arrest moral erosion, as traditional social control mechanisms backed by shame have declined. The article argues that unless individual self-control based on a re-configurated morality emphasising shame as well as guilt is sufficiently strengthened, the present negative spiral cannot be reversed. Differences between shame culture and guilt culture are explored to identify how socialisation and education as key mechanisms for transmitting values and morality may be revamped to nurture better consciousness and moral renewal. Educational strategies would need to emphasise duties rather than rights, already reflected in constitutional guidance about Fundamental Duties in the Indian Constitution. Thus, a rational, secular approach that trusts educators to deliver value-based education in India without necessarily strengthening Hindu nationalist tendencies is suggested as a viable way forward.

Abstract:
Information and communication technology use in learning is a demand for the development and progress of today's increasingly modern era. Education in Indonesia must continue to improve and adjust to the rapid development of globalization. Teachers, as agents of renewal and spearheads in realizing national education goals, must continue to develop all their abilities and competencies in designing and implementing exciting learning for students. Teachers in Indonesia today must continue to try their best to create creative, innovative, and competitive students. For this reason, a strategy for implementing 21st-century learning is needed, and it is expected to be able to explore and improve the 4C skills of students. This study aims to provide an overview of the challenges and appropriate strategies used in applying 21st-century learning to Hindu religious education and ethics subjects at UPT SD Negeri 5 Amparita. This qualitative research uses data collection techniques that involve conducting in-depth observations and interviews. The results showed that (1) there are challenges in the application of 21st-century learning both internally and externally, and (2) to overcome these challenges, the right strategy is needed in efforts to implement 21st-century learning at UPT SD Negeri 5 Amparita. 21st-century learning is very important to be applied at UPT SD Negeri 5 Amparita because, in addition to being a demand from developments in the era of globalization, it is also because it is in line with the vision and mission of the school in creating students who are communicative, creative and innovative, think critically, and can work together.

Abstract:
In the early days of the entry of Islam in Indonesia the emphasis of Islamic teachings on legal aspects was not as strong as it is now. From the historical record, Islam that developed in Indonesia in the early days was very oriented towards tasawuf. This is because Islamic tasawuf who came to the archipelago, in certain aspects "fit" with the background of the local community influenced by Hindu-Buddhist asceticism and syncretism of local beliefs. In the next stage, Islam is oriented to Sufism, gradually becoming more oriented towards shari'ah. This change in orientation was partly due to a process of renewal or refinement that began in the 17th century and continues today. The Islamic law developing in Indonesia nowadays has got much changing from its origin, syafi’iyah to moderate. The modernity of Islamic law that take long time is provable by appearing of the national fiqh mazhab (religious sect). To get the better understanding on the happening process, the writer will divide into two periods of modernity. First is the initial period indicated by having ijtihad and self-releasing on taklid or fanatic attitude to a certain mazhab. The Second period load the effort to bear the mazhab that is suitable to the national personality. This is called National mazhab later.

Abstract:
Abstract This article examines death’s symbolic role vis-à-vis life in cross-cultural perspective. It surveys various ways of suppressing, nuancing, or minimising death’s effects and different ways of assuming its non-impasse through a cross-disciplinary lens that combines ethnographic inquiry, philosophical conceptualisation, and a secular, religious studies approach to the sacred. Zoroastrian and pre-Rabbinic Jewish views on the resurrection of the body, Gnostic and Neo-Gnostic takes on the immortality of the soul, and ancient-Greek, Hindu, and medieval Peripatetic claims about the continuity of life beyond death are thus brought into discussion and confronted with the Epicurean dismissal of death’s relevance for us. Additionally, drawing on Heraclitus’s frag. DK B62 and Robert Gardner’s fieldwork among the Dani of Papua New Guinea, I argue that assuming death as life’s sacred and non-negotiable limit need not entail resignation before it, be it untroubled or despaired. For while life outlives us, life itself would be nothing determinate if our finitude were not to contain it, which shows that death is life’s final condition of possibility; and when humans do not lose sight of their mortality, they tend to reaffirm their aliveness so as to stress life’s sacredness before death’s terrible presence, which proves that death is not only life’s limit, but also life’s antagonist. I conclude by making the point that differences as to the exact nature of death’s role in life affect our understanding of what life is: momentary joy, boundless renewal, or tragic gift.

Full text
Abstract:
The use of labels such as ‘isolation’ or ‘assimilation’ to characterise tribal communities dwelling in the plains region of British Assam had a discursive history that took no notice of the region’s prolonged tradition of vibrant interfaith transmissions and cultural exchanges. This essay flags a disjuncture between early ethnographic literature on the ‘tribes’ of the plains region of Assam, and their later enumeration in census data from the middle of the 19th century. While census makers in Assam attributed an ‘unusual’ surge in the number of Hindus to proselytisation by Vaishnavite and Brahman priests, and to the erosion of tribal modes of worship, this article argues that colonial enumerative practices were directly imbricated in producing the ‘Hindu’ in a way that was transformative of quotidian relations and processes of exchange characterising the region. The political pressure to possess fixed and singular identities and the growing rhetoric of a muscular Hinduism symbolised by renewed interest in Indological studies, combined to enhance Hinduism’s prestige and symbolic value. Becoming a Hindu was easier now that the definition of Hinduism as a loosely bound corpus of ritually coded behaviour enabled a wide array of practices to be labelled as ‘Hindu’.

Full text
Abstract:
This autobiographical, sociological, and musicological essay, written for a symposium on xenophilia, concerns how the love of a foreign culture can lead to a better understanding and renewed love of one’s own. The author, a Japanese musicologist, studied Hindustani music with North Indian masters, both Hindu and Muslim, and concluded that it is the shared concept of a “sound-god” that brings them together on stage in peaceful celebration with audiences from religious communities often at odds. The author’s training in ethnomusicology began in India in 1992, immediately after the violent demolition of the Babri Masjid mosque in Ayodhya by militant Hindus, but even at that time she found no trace of such belligerence in the Hindustani musical world. Years later, while conducting research on the Shinto music rituals of her own culture, she discovered a little-known imperial and aristocratic cult of Myō’onten, a Japanese form of the Hindu goddess of music, Saraswati, who is presently an object of devotion for both Hindu and Muslim musicians in North India. This essay, based on nearly three decades of research in India and Japan, offers some answers to a question raised repeatedly in the Common Knowledge symposium on xenophilia: What is the source of the xenophilic impulse and the power that sustains it?

Full text
Abstract:
The article examines the changes in the formulation, prioritisation and implementation of India’s foreign policy objectives as a result of a significant renewal of its political elite, triggered by the economic reforms that began in the 1990s. It is argued that India’s ruling elite is now largely identical to its political elite, whose mindset, although considerably younger and better educated, is more than ever defined by its self-identification with traditional values, which are religious and, for the vast Hindu majority, caste-based. At the same time, the composition of India’s elite has broadened during the reform years, mainly through the inclusion of middle and even lower castes in the traditional hierarchy. Many of its representatives tend to associate the strengthening of the country with a return to the “correct” cultural and civilisational basis which, in the centuries before foreign conquest, gave India what the y saw as its natural primacy in the world. The main change is the emergence of a sense of self-confidence among the elite, on which the so-called “new nationalism” of the “man of the people”, the current Prime Minister N. Modi, is based. Drawing on his statements, speeches by Foreign Secretary S. Jaishankar, and articles by Indian and Russian scholars, the author shows the innovations introduced by the Prime Minister in promoting India’s core national interests in a changing world. The article examines the creation of India’s own sphere of influence within the framework of the new Indo-Pacific strategy, the combination of cooperation and competition in relations with China, the reasons for the dynamic expansion of interaction with the United States and the “red lines” involved, the motives for developing a particularly privileged strategic partnership with Russia and for using multilateral formats, and the return to India’s agenda of the task of gaining the status of the main voice of the Global South. It is concluded that approaches to the imperative of building a multipolar world order “in which India would be a strong pole”, based on the priority goal of establishing for it the status of a great power and a global actor in world politics, create historic opportunities for increasing Russian-Indian interaction.

Abstract:
Indian Religions: Renaissance and Renewal, the latest collection of Spalding papers, celebrates the work of Ninian Smart in bringing together papers by some of the most eminent scholars within this field. The papers are concerned with cultural, religious, political or textual exchange and encounter, and therefore in concepts of rupture, revival, restoration, reformation and reformulation. The title of this book comes directly from Professor Klaus Klostermaier’s paper which argues that the real Hindu Renaissance is happening now. However, the title also embraces the contemporary problematic of the study of Indian religions. There cannot ever have been a time when the scholarly study of Indic religions has been under such scrutiny or more politically, culturally and religiously sensitive. The papers in section one urge a major rethinking of academic paradigms. The papers in the second section focus on texts, contexts and ways of understanding. Vastly different in style, period and approach, they nevertheless cumulatively develop sensitivity to textual continuities, to the purposes of commentators and the contemporary creative reinterpretation of texts and their application to real life. The third section is concerned with cultural and religious encounter and exchange, transformation, restoration, revival and reformation. The fourth section is concerned with the performative, experiential and expressive. There are papers on the Hindu imagination and imaginary Hinduisms; religion, the media and a multi-modal future; ritual performance and gender; art and the aesthetic imagination.

Abstract:
Chapter 1 explores how 19th- and 20th-century Indians understood history, science, and politics. The chapter shows that the colonial era prompted many Indians to think in terms of historical renewal: an end to foreign rule and a renaissance of Indian (generally considered Hindu) wisdom. That rebirth was contested by those who disagreed over the precise contributions of India’s past and the mixture of Indian and European culture. Nevertheless, significant intellectual agreement emerged that a hybrid culture would bring together Indian traditions with contemporary science and technology and result in political freedom. For many, this view of history and the future was apocalyptic in its expectations: a new world would be born and science proved central to that formation.

Full text
Abstract:
In this paper I will examine a contemporary response to an important debate in the "science" of hermeneutics, along with some cross-cultural implications. I discuss Paul Ricoeur's intervention in the debate between Gadamer and Habermas concerning the proper task of hermeneutics as a mode of philosophical interrogation in the late 20th century. The confrontation between Gadamer and Habermas turns on the assessment of tradition and the place of language within it; the hermeneutical stance takes a positive stance, while ideologiekritik views tradition with a hooded-brow of suspicion, tantamount to "seeing tradition as merely the systematically distorted expression of communication under unacknowledged conditions of violence." In his own rescue operation, Ricoeur combines the reanimation of traditional sources of communicative action with the re-awakening of political responsibility towards a creative renewal of cultural heritage. His fusion or consensus adverts to specific symbols of Western eschatology, viz., liberation, salvation, and hope. What will result if we juxtaposed Buddhist, Daoist and Hindu symbols of Non-being, Nature as transcendence and Intelligence, respectively?

The second is Bombay-based Hindi cinema’s reinvention of itself as Bollywood, adopting the name that was previously used only sarcastically and almost always within quotes. Both reinventions invigorated popular Indian cinema, both in and outside of Bollywood.

Abstract:
The Hindu and Bengali renaissance of the nineteenth century revolved in many respects around a recovery of early texts of Hinduism such as the Upanishads and a revival of Advaita Vedānta. It also entailed a general rejection of iconic bhakti and the Puranic literature, regarded as expressions of primitive religion. The religious current represented by Bhaktisiddhānta Sarasvatī (1874–1936) and the institution that he founded in 1918, which later became known as the Gaudiya Math and Mission, generated a renewed interest for bhakti religiosity and went beyond the mainstream tenets of the renaissance. The chapter provides an overview of the life of Bhaktisiddhānta and a brief history of his movement, which includes one of its most prominent international offshoots—that is, the International Society for Krishna Consciousness, popularly known as the Hare Krishna movement.

Full text
Abstract:
This article discusses the historical neglect of Babur, the founder of the Babur Empire in South Asia, and the recent resurgence of interest in his role due to political and religious controversies. Historically, scholars have focused on his son Akbar as the empire's founder, largely ignoring Babur's heritage and his reign's early years. However, in 1992, the destruction of the Babri Masjid mosque in Ayodhya by Hindu revivalists sparked renewed interest in Babur's Indian conquest. These individuals claimed that Babur intentionally built the mosque on the site of a Hindu temple to assert his militant religious intent in Islamizing Hindustan. This article argues that Babur's invasion of North India was not driven by religious crusade but by a desire to establish a Timurid empire in the prosperous North Indian region. Despite evidence to the contrary, Hindu nationalist rhetoric continues to promote the idea of Babur's evangelical mission, making scholarly analysis of this issue crucial in twenty-first century India. Fortunately, Babur's autobiography provides valuable insights into his motives, policies, and actions, offering a unique perspective on his Turco-Mongol society, Persianized culture, and Timurid political career.

Abstract:
In this paper two different types of solar cookers namely a flat plate box type solar cooker (SBC) and a parabolic solar cooker (SPC) are investigated experimentally. Experiments were done at roof top of Renewable Energy Lab, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Institute of Technology, Banaras Hindu University (BHU), Varanasi, India during month of October and November 2008. For comparison, these two cookers were kept on a single platform to ensure the same solar conditions. The energy and exergy efficiencies of both the cookers were experimentally evaluated. The experimental time period was from 09:00 to 15:00 solar time. During this period, it was found that the daily average temperature of water in the SPC was 333 K and for SBC was 326 K and the daily average difference between the temperature of water in the cooking pot and the ambient air temperature was 31.6 K for SPC and 26.4 K for SBC. The energy output of the SPC varied between 0.65 to 39.3 W and 7.44 to 33.49 W for SBC, whereas its exergy output was in the range of 0.92 to 2.58 W for SPC and for SBC it varies from 0.65 to 1.45 W. The energy efficiency of the SPC varied from 0.42% to 5.27% and for the SBC it varies from 4.7% to 29.81%.

Abstract:
The aim of the study is to map and assess the green job opportunities and potential in selected countries in the Hindu Kush Himalayan (HKH) region with a specific focus on three key sectors, namely, renewable energy, energy efficiency, and productive use of energy, which are highly relevant to the region’s economic growth and development. The study uses the employment coefficient method as the tool of analysis for assessing green jobs. The analysis shows that India has the most potential to generate a significant number of green jobs in many of the sub-sectors considered, whereas Bhutan has the least potential to create green jobs in the sectors under reference. In small-scale decentralisation interventions such as SHS and ICS, Bangladesh emerges as the country with the highest potential to create jobs.
