Details:
This book provides a comprehensive yet concise exploration of the essentials of Indian philosophy, offering readers a structured approach to understanding its core principles. It traces the historical development of Indian philosophical thought, beginning with the Vedic tradition, its transformation into the major philosophical systems, and its interactions with non-Vedic schools of thought.
The book presents detailed analyses of key philosophical traditions, including:
- Nyāya-Vaiśeṣika
- Sāṃkhya-Yoga
- Pūrva-Mīmāṃsā
- Vedānta, examined from both an absolutistic and theistic perspective
With a historical survey of each system, the book discusses epistemology, metaphysics, and ethical teachings, while challenging various established theories and interpretations. The critical insights and precise explanations make this book an ideal guide for both beginners and advanced readers seeking a deeper understanding of Indian philosophical traditions.
