> Шакти и Майю вообще можно отождествлять
Цитирую http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smartism: "Accordingly, the scriptures hold that Vishnu and Shiva are ultimately the same. The Smarta theologians have cited many references to support this point. For example, they interpret verses in both the Shri Rudram, the most sacred mantra in Shaivism, and the Vishnu Sahasranama, one of the most sacred prayers in Vaishnavism, to show this unity".
А вот о Шиве (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiva): "Shaivism, along with Vaiṣṇava traditions that focus on Vishnu, and Śākta traditions that focus on the goddess (Devī) are three of the most influential denominations in Hinduism. <...> According to Gavin Flood, "Śiva is a god of ambiguity and paradox", whose attributes include opposing themes. The ambivalent nature of this deity is apparent in some of his names and the stories told about him. <...> The name Rudra (Sanskrit रुद्र) reflects his fearsome aspects. According to traditional etymologies, the Sanskrit name Rudra is derived from the root rud- which means "to cry, howl." <...> In contrast, the name Śaṇkara (Sanskrit शङ्कर), "Beneficent" or "Conferring Happiness" reflects his benign form". Это мне очень напоминает хаоситство. |
