Hardcover. Condition: New. 2nd Edition. The Volume as it stands now with six chapters begins with an introduction to the Concept of Time in Ancient India. Investigating the Concept of Time the author juxtaposes the awareness of the mystery of time in ancient thought, the varied experiences of time in cosmological, cultural, historical, and spiritual memory, and knowledge Presentation on the nation of time in diverse Philosophical systems especially the Indian one was discussed at length. The mention of time in Vedas, Time as fundamental and very important in the process of evolution, Time as above everything else, even above God as the actual existence of beings, Cultic Time, etc., is made. The Transmigration from the Cultic Time of the Vedas to the Interioriezed Time of Upanisads, the comparison of Time in Mahabharat, the Puranic conception of Time as the moment identical with the unit of change of Gunas, etc., are discussed. An attempt was made on the contributions of Jains in the domain of Cosmology and Time. Jain philosophy is believing Kala is as much a real substance as five others viz., Jiva, Dharma, Adharma, Pudgala, and Akasa. Contrary to Jains' philosophy, Buddhists' conception of time and temporality and their consideration of time and causation as parts of four experiences are discussed. The Cyclic Time in cosmological context and Linear Time in historical sources determination of the natural division of Time-years, seasons, months, and days by the motion of the Sun and the Moon in all the ages, the civil reckoning of the usual eras by which we assign dates to events, dating in inscriptions and the regnal year of the ruler with the season, month, fortnight and the day are precisely dealt. After briefly presenting the value and significance of Time, he turns his attention to the application of Time in rituals, and festivities according to the Dharma Sastras to the historical and modern man.
