Max Weber y las religiones de la India
Este ensayo discute la relevancia actual de las discusiones sobre religión hindú que se encuentran en las obras del famoso sociólogo alemán Max Weber (1864-1920). Históricamente, la aproximación “valor-neutral” de Weber para el estudio de las religiones del mundo puede ser vista como un gran avance sobre las tendencias cristianas y europeas anteriores para analizar las religiones no cristianas por parte de los estudiosos europeos y americanos.

Popular Hindu Movements
One way of thinking about Hindu religion and society is to distinguish between the traditional religious society led mostly by brahmans and the large number of popular movements that have been led mostly by members of other caste groups.

These texts shed light on what was hap…

Who Invented Hinduism
Over the past decade, many scholars have put forward the claim that Hinduism was constructed, invented, or imagined by British scholars and colonial administrators in the nineteenth century and did not exist, in any meaningful sense, before this date.I thank many scholars for their comments on this and earlier versions of this essay, particularly Saurabh Dube and Sabyasachi Bhattacharya. Prominent among scholars who have made this constructionist…
Historical Dictionary of Sikhism
This expanded and updated second edition of the dictionary is an excellent place to learn more about Sikhism. It provides a chronology of events, a brief introduction that gives a general overview of the religion, and a dictionary with several hundred entries, which present the gurus and other leaders, trace the rather complex history, expound some of the precepts and concepts, describe many of the rites and rituals, and explain the meaning of nu…

Through the cold snows of the Central Himalayas, gods and goddesses are regularly taken on ritual processions from village to village. Nandadevi, one of the most popular goddesses, is worshipped by peasant Hindus in almost every village in the high-altitude districts where India, Nepal, and Tibet meet. This elegant study follows an arduous pilgrimage over the Himalayan ice fields to uncover the reasons for the popularity of this bloodthirsty godd…

tanate. The earlier existence of violent conflict between kings and temples is documented for Kashmir in the Rdjatarangini. The basis of this conflict was in large measure economic. Under Muslim rule this economic conflict continued but was also given religious sanction. This seems to have altered the situation sufficiently to provoke the creation of military orders of ascetics. Even so, these orders became politically significant only after the …
