Bisschop. 330 $aIn Universal ?aivism Peter Bisschop provides a critical edition and annotated translation of the sixth chapter of the ?ivadharma??stra `Treatise on the Religion of ?iva?, the so-called ??ntyadhy?ya 'Chapter on Appeasement?. The Sanskrit text is preceded by an extensive introduction on its composition, transmission and edition. The ?ivadharma??stra has arguably played a crucial role in the formation, development and institutionalisation of ?aivism. Through a detailed study of its extensive ??nti mantra, Peter Bisschop shows how the text advocates a system in which all worldly and cosmic power is ultimately dependent upon ?iva. The mantra itself is a mine of information on the evolving pantheon of early Brahmanical Hinduism. Thanks to generous support of the J. Gonda Fund Foundation, the e-book version of this volume is available in Open Access. 410 0$aGonda Indological Studies$v18. 606 $aSaivism 608 $aCriticism, interpretation, etc.$2fast 608 $aHistory.$2fast 610 $aReligion 610 $aAsia 610 $a?aivism 615 0$aSaivism. 676 $a294.5/513 700 $aBisschop$b Peter Christiaan$f1973-$0864682 801 0$bNL-LeKB 801 1$bNL-LeKB 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910315232903321 996 $aUniversal Saivism$92278207 997 $aUNINA
