Heirarchies In The Nature Of God? Questioning The "Saguna-Nirguna" Distinction In Advaita Vedanta, Anantanand Rambachan Jan 2001

Heirarchies In The Nature Of God? Questioning The "Saguna-Nirguna" Distinction In Advaita Vedanta, Anantanand Rambachan

Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies

The Advaita tradition has not merely been the focus of my scholarly work; my personal world-view has been shaped by its insights and I continue to be deeply influenced by its understanding of human existence. One cannot, however, ignore the challenges of claims which are different from one's own and my encounter with other Hindu traditions and other religions has led to a re-evaluation of many aspects of my Advaita heritage. I have chosen, in what follows, to reflect on how my original understanding is being transformed by encounters with other traditions by focusing on the Advaita representation of brahman …

Retrospective: The Birthing Of A Discipline, William Cenkner Jan 2001

Retrospective: The Birthing Of A Discipline, William Cenkner

Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies

It is not clear whether Hindu-Christian study is a new enterprise or something that has been in progress for some years. My four decade experience has confronted a set of problems clouding any self-identity. First is the problem of naming. My own preference has always been the written text and my training, likewise, has been textual. In fact every course in graduate school was the study of a particular Indian text, whether Hindu or Buddhist. That's what Indology was about in those years. We were wary of comparative religions done in Europe and further saw religionswisenchaft as generalist and even …

Hindu Bioethics For The Twenty-First Century, S. Cromwell Crawford Jan 2001

Hindu Bioethics For The Twenty-First Century, S. Cromwell Crawford

Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies

In his Cross Cultural Perspectives in Medical Ethics: Readings, Robert Veatch observes, "The religions of Judaism and Christianity and the secular thought of the political philosophy of liberalism in the Anglo-American West are not the only alternatives to a Hippocratic medical ethic." In fact, the new pluralistic approach to world cultures is introducing us to several religious and philosophical alternatives from outside the Anglo-American West. Just as alternative medicine is becoming recognized and respected, and is being incorporated into mainstream medicine, there is a growing admission that the ethical problems we face today have dimensions that are not adequately …

Viewpoint: Dialogue: A Call To Friendship, Kenneth Cracknell Jan 2001

Viewpoint: Dialogue: A Call To Friendship, Kenneth Cracknell

Journal of Hindu-Christian Studies

In the past twelve months we have lost three great figures from the active list of participants in Hindu-Christian dialogue: Wilfred Cantwell Smith (1926-2000), Ninian Smart (1927-2001), and Eric J. Sharpe (1933-2000). It is my keen sense of an ending of an era that leads to the reflections in this Viewpoint.

Effects Of Salinity On Development In The Ghost Shrimp Callichirus Islagrande And Two Populations Of C. Major (Crustacea: Decapoda: Thalassinidea), K.M. Strasser, D.L. Felder Jan 2001

Effects Of Salinity On Development In The Ghost Shrimp Callichirus Islagrande And Two Populations Of C. Major (Crustacea: Decapoda: Thalassinidea), K.M. Strasser, D.L. Felder

Gulf and Caribbean Research

Salinity (S) was abruptly decreased from 35‰ to 25‰ at either the 4th zoeal (ZIV) or decapodid stage (D) in Callichirus islagrande (Schmitt) and 2 populations of C. major (Say). Other larvae were maintained at stable 35‰ or 25‰ S throughout development. In C. islagrande, duration of ZIV did not vary among the stable salinities. However, a decrease of salinity at ZIV reduced the duration of this stage, suggesting that the S decrease could be a possible cue for acceleration of larval development. In the Gulf population of C. major duration of ZIV was significantly longer at stable 35‰ …

Accurate 3-D Morphological Measurement Using A Structured-Light Range Sensor, Robert L. Cromwell, Stuart G. Poss Jan 2001

Accurate 3-D Morphological Measurement Using A Structured-Light Range Sensor, Robert L. Cromwell, Stuart G. Poss

Gulf and Caribbean Research

A single-plane structured light range-sensor was tested to establish its usefulness in acquiring 3-D measurements of fish skulls. Twenty-one distances among 22 landmark points for each of 12 neurocrania of the scorpaenid fish Neomerinthe hemingway were taken with digital calipers, with a video-based 2-D imaging system widely used in systematic studies, and with a single-plane structured-light range sensor of inexpensive and simple design. Measures taken by 3-D sensor are highly correlated with those obtained from caliper measurement (r = 0.9995, P << 0.001 ), with a precision ranging from 0.08–0.43 mm. Like caliper-based measurements, they are less strongly correlated with measurements derived from projected video-imaging. Most skulls were scanned in just over 3 minutes each. Range maps, typically establishing the (x,y,z) coordinates of more than 75,000 points per scan, can be obtained in about 40–50 CPU seconds using software running on multiple platforms. Sensor data taken from different views can be merged to build a more complete 3-D reconstruction. System design, calibration, and use are discussed. By eliminating error due to perspective effects inherent in measuring from projected video images, such sensors hold considerable promise in quantifying biological shape in 3-D for comparative and functional studies.

The Chaetognatha Of The Southwestern Gulf Of Mexico During April-May, 1986, Silvia Mille-Pagaza, Jorge Carrillo-Laguna Jan 2001

The Chaetognatha Of The Southwestern Gulf Of Mexico During April-May, 1986, Silvia Mille-Pagaza, Jorge Carrillo-Laguna

Gulf and Caribbean Research

An analysis of the distribution and abundance of Chaetognatha species from the Gulf of Mexico during April–May 1986 is presented. Zooplankton samples were collected at 43 stations from the southwestern and eastern regions of Mexico’s Exclusive Economic Zone in the Gulf of Mexico. Species richness and abundance were higher in the southwestern stations located at the platform slope. The rank of Importance Value (IV) shows 3 groups of species; the first group included Flaccisagitta enflata, Mesosagitta minima, Serratosagitta serratodentata, Krohnitta subtilis, Pterosagitta draco, Sagitta bipunctata, and Krohnitta pacifica which were the most widely distributed …

Tanaidacea (Crustacea: Peracardia) Of The Gulf Of Mexico. Ix. Geographical Occurrence Of Apseudes Olimpiae Gutu, 1986 With A Review Of Previous Records For The Genus Apseudes In The Gulf, Tom Hansknecht, Richard W. Heard Jan 2001

Tanaidacea (Crustacea: Peracardia) Of The Gulf Of Mexico. Ix. Geographical Occurrence Of Apseudes Olimpiae Gutu, 1986 With A Review Of Previous Records For The Genus Apseudes In The Gulf, Tom Hansknecht, Richard W. Heard

Gulf and Caribbean Research

Examination of tanaidacean specimens collected from shelf waters of the eastern Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) revealed the presence of the apseudomorph Apseudes olimpiaeGutu, 1986, whose type locality was unknown, but suspected to be Bermuda. It is now determined that the type material actually came from the northeastern Gulf. Although the specific station locality information for the type material has been lost; records indicate that specimens from the Gulf were sent to Romania for study by M. Băcescu and apparently became mixed with material from Bermuda. Based on additional material from the present study, new locality records are established for …

Sections Of Lefschetz Fibrations And Stein Fillings, Andras I. Stipsicz Jan 2001

Sections Of Lefschetz Fibrations And Stein Fillings, Andras I. Stipsicz

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

Using Eliashberg's theorem about Stein fillings of S^3 we prove that a section of a Lefschetz fibration over S^2 has nonnegative square. This observation, in particular, implies that the identity element 1\in \Gamma _g ^1 in the mapping class group of a genus-g surface with one boundary component cannot be written as a product of positive Dehn twists.

On The Tautological Ring Of \Bar{\Mathcal{M}}_{G,N}, Tom Graber, Ravi Vakil

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

We prove that the dimension 0 part of the tautological ring of the moduli space of stable pointed curves is one-dimensional. This provides the first genus-free evidence for a conjecture of Faber and Pandharipande that the tautological ring of the moduli space is Gorenstein, answering in the affirmative a question of Hain and Looijenga.

On Qr-Submanifolds Of A Quaternionic Space Form, Bayram Şahi̇n Jan 2001

On Qr-Submanifolds Of A Quaternionic Space Form, Bayram Şahi̇n

Turkish Journal of Mathematics

In this paper, we investigate mixed QR-submanifolds in a quaternionic space form and pseudo umbilical QR-submanifold of a quaternionic space form under some additional condition. Finally we give a necessary condition for QR-submanifold of a quaternion Kaehler manifold such that \dim \upsilon ^{\perp }=1 to be a 3-quasi Sasakian Manifold.
