[edit] Major Aghora Overhaul

I am planning a major overhaul of the Aghori section, I propose that the main Aghora page lead to Aghori and that a disambiguation link be added to the top of that page linking to this page. Sedusa66 05:06, 9 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Why does Aghora redirect to Shiva?

I recently read 'The Aghora Trilogy' by Robert E. Svoboda, and they portray Aghora as a fairly particular form of practice of Tantric Yoga. It certainly means something much different from simply 'Shiva' which is where it currently redirects to.

I would be happy to write an article based on the info given in the Aghora books, but I'm not sure if it's accurate or not, since I can't find any other sources for info. I would just be trusting the author (Svboda) for correct information. I've searched the web and can't really find any info about Aghora, or Aghoris (those who believe in Aghora)... What should I do?


[edit] Individual page for Aghora, the sect

How about making an individual page for this definition of Aghora: "A particular Hindu sect of sadhu known for their left-hand tantra practices"?

I have the Aghora trilogy by Robert Svoboda and would be happy to contribute information from there. The books have a wealth of information on this Tantric/Hindu sect, such as the practices and beliefs, as well as definition of various terms. (eg: 'Aghora' translates as 'fearlessness,' according to Svoboda)


That would be great! The only thing is that we'd need to look to other sources as well. btw you can sign your comments with four ~'s. Sethie 01:51, 5 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Vandalism to disambig page

I very much want there to be a page on the aghora sect, but the way you are going about it is vandalism. This is a disambig page, meaning there are multiple possibilities for the word aghora.

I have created a seperate page for the sect, please edit it. Sethie 03:53, 21 May 2006 (UTC)
