SIVA AND DIONYSOS-VISIONS OF TERROR AND BLISS BY J. BRUCE LONG Haverford, Pa., U. Driver For Labelflash Dvd Disc. S.A. It will be our purpose in this essay to describe and interpret certain 'divine modalities' or 'modes of manifestation' which two deities possess in common-Rudra-Siva in India and Dionysos in ancient Greece. It is our belief that the character of these gods whose worship sprang out of and was nurtured by cultures which are widely divergent in time and place, form homologous or parallel structures of religious experience and expression. It will be our contention that these two divine modanities manifest certain religious significances which are at once historical and transhistorical, traits which are both Greek and Indian, on the one hand, and fundamentally human, on the other. We feel that by providing such a phenomenological and structural analysis of their personalities, deeds and cults as manifested in their respective mythologies, we shall augment, not diminish the religious significance of each. The precise reasons and causes for this parallelism are profound and complex.

Like any other formative and long-lived religious tradition, the roots of these two cults, the socio-religious causes of their appear- ance, and the laws governing their development elude the grasp of the scholar. We might suggest, however, that such a parallelism arises, in part, from the fact that the cults of both gods developed in similar fashions at the earliest stages, that they sprang up among peoples having attained approximately the same type of cultural and social level, and that, reflecting as they do certain religious truths which their devotees cherished, they represent similar or homologous apprehensions of Divine and human reality.
