RSR and the Demise of the CSSR: A Historical Note
As a former chair of Religious Studies Review's editorial board and executive director of its former parent organization, the Council of Societies for the Study of Religion (CSSR), I was kindly asked by Mark MacWilliams if I would like to contribute to this RSR special issue, perhaps talking about my “understanding of the value and importance of RSR as a journal for our field.” I spent my career as a professor of religion at Texas Christian Unive…

Reconstructing Tradition: Advaita Acārya and Gauḍīya Vai⋅ṇavism at the Cusp of the Twentieth Century. By Rebecca J. Manring
This book, more than a decade in the making, is a tour de force on the relatively little known fifteenth to sixteenth century Bengali teacher Advaita Acārya. Advaita could be claimed, in some sense, as the “father of Gauḍīya Vai⋅ṇavism,” the devotional movement focused on the Hindu god Kṛ⋅ṇa, which is best known through the sixteenth century Bengali figure Caitanya, understood by many to be an incarnation of Lord Kṛ⋅ṇa himself (or the joint embod…

Jīvanmukti in transformation: Embodied liberation in Advaita and neo-Vedanta
Liberation (mukti) is a central concern in Hinduism, particularly in Advaita (nondual) Vedanta, perhaps the best known school of Hindu thought. There has been vigorous debate and analysis about the possibility and nature of liberation while living (jivanmukti) in Advaita from the time of Sankara, the school's founder, to the present day. While the general conclusion seems to be that one can achieve living liberation, members of the Advaita tradit…
