Download or read book Advaita Ved nta written by Eliot Deutsch and published by University of Hawaii Press. This book was released on 2021-05-25 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advaita Vedānta is the most important philosophical system in India. It involves a discipline of spiritual experience as well as a technical philosophy, and since the time of Samkara in the ninth century some of the greatest intellects in India have contributed to its development. In his reconstruction of Advaita Vedānta, Eliot Deutsch has lifted the system out of its historical/cultural context and has concentrated attention on those ideas which have enduring philosophical value. He has sought to formulate systematically one's understanding of what is of universal philosophical interest in Vedantic thought. Professor Deutsch's work covers the basic metaphysical, epistemological, and ethical ideas of Vedānta. Students and scholars of Western as well as of Indian philosophy will be interested in the lucid, organized manner in which the material is presented and in the fresh interpretations given. The book is written in a critical rather than simply "pious" spirit and should thus also be of interest to anyone interested in deepening his or her appreciation and understanding of the richness of Indian thought.

Book excerpt: Vedanta is the most encompassing and open of the six orthodox systems of Hinduism and is considered the quintessence of Eastern thought and mysticism. An important part of modern intellectual Hinduism, Vedanta is often regarded as a truly universal religion and had many adherents in the West. At the center of Vedanta lie the texts of the Upanishads and the Bhagavad Gita. Beginning with the premise that man is a divine being whose greatest source of strength is his intuition, Vedanta seeks not merely the accumulation of knowledge, but rather the annihilation of all knowledge. Its goal is an unclouded inner world that will allow us to exist untroubled by the complexity of the outside world. For those interested in the concise and intelligent overview, as well as those who seek a better understanding of what is at the heart of Hinduism, Vedanta is a unique and thought-provoking guide.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vedanta, which is the philosophical part of the Vedas, has been the kernel of Hinduism for a few thousand years. It provides the ontological and ethical core to Hinduism. Around this philosophical core, the religion has been developed, adapted and modified as per the needs of the age. Hundreds of sages, saints, philosophers, teachers and practitioners have contributed to the dynamic form of the religion around Vedanta. This system of a loose wrapper around a well developed stable core, is a great example to build ideological systems, including religions, that can serve humans constructively and effectively over thousands of years of human development.This book is a collection of articles curated by the author from his blog at http: //www.practicalphilosophy.in The articles in the blog are the result of the author's experience of teaching Vedanta to mostly doctoral students of one of India's leading Science research institute. The articles show how Vedanta builds up a rational, practical and egalitarian system around just a couple of simple assumptions, to answer most of the big questions of life like the following.1.What is the real nature of individual and the Universe? What is the relationship between them? Is there anything beyond matter?2.Why is there sorrow? Is it possible to be free from sorrow? What is the way?3.How can a person be inspired to follow the path of virtue in the face of extreme trials or temptations?4.How can a person be inspired not to give up in life in the face of a series of failures, directionlessness and despair?5.Is there a purpose to human life? Is there a purpose to mankind as a whole?6.Why should a person lead a moral life? Is it only for the society or is there a personal benefit?Practicing and non-practicing Hindus will find the logical explanation of most of the concepts that they had assumed to be blind beliefs. Students of Western Philosophy will get a taste of how philosophy has been practiced in India, and being continued to be practiced. Practitioners of other religions also can find new insights and inspirations into their own religious practices.Please feel free to contact the author if you have any questions or want to engage with the author.

Download or read book The Essence of Vedanta written by Brian Hodgkinson and published by Arcturus Publishing. This book was released on 2006-06-05 with total page 269 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All students of philosophy will relate to the concepts of selfhood, nature, karma and liberation. Here are views and answers to the most important questions. How is self identified? What are the causes and effects in nature? Are our actions determined? What is freedom for a human being? What happens after death? The Essence of Vedanta examines issues of existential philosophy from the viewpoint of the Veda, the most ancient and sacred of Indian scriptures, and also outlines the work of Sankara, the early medieval master of Vedanta's dominant form, Advaita. The foundation of all Vedic teaching lies in the universal truth that human nature reflects God (Brahman), who exists in every living thing. An individual needs no salvation therefore, because he or she is never lost, but merely living in ignorance of his or her true nature. Brian Hodgkinson offers readers insight into, and discussion of, the fundamental questions of the Vedic system concerning self-realization, such as knowledge versus ignorance, the self, consciousness, free will, nature, time, the mind, language, law and society. His fascinating appraisal reveals the profound nature of the Veda and its practices. With its tolerance of other faiths, and ultimately uplifting spiritual message, it is a discipline that chimes with our 21st century needs and preoccupations.
