Motilal Banarsidass Publishers Pvt. Ltd. 1992. Hardcover. New. Origins of the Virasaiva Sects are probably the most thorough exploration of Virasaivism available in any Language except Kannada. Already the activities of founder/reformer Basava are well known throughout India and the world. Similarly certain reformational aspects of Virasaivism have attracted the attention of Western scholarship. Professor Michael`s book however goes beyond all previous efforts in non-Kannada languages. It explores a crucial text the Sunyasampadane from Virasaivism`s third century of development. There it finds sources for the seldom explored variety of forms and practices which characterize contemporary Virasaiva sectarian and denominational patterns. Non-Virasaivas will finally have an opportunity to appreciate the richness and depth of this significant Religious movement. Virasaivas themselves may acquire a new appreciation of their own tradition`s breadth and sophistication. All will find the detailed scholarship impressive and informative. Printed Pages: 252.
