The nine decades between 1858 and 1947 were an important time for India. The country was awakening to new realities, trying to shape her own destiny and was inching her way to freedom.

Starting with Queen Victoria’s ‘Proclamation’ and ending with Jawaharlal Nehru’s famous ‘Tryst with Destiny’ speech, this book brings together... |

The World as Dream |
$31.49 $23.62 |
|
The entological status of the world has been a subject of much philosophical speculation despite the fact that the world is an existential given. According to some philosophersm, such existential givenness could turn out to be comparable to the earth's apparent flatness, with the actual truth turning out to be the very opposite of what it seems.
Philosophers often cite the experience of a dream to establish the plausibility of their position that the world might appear to be real... |

The World as Image |
$25.49 $19.12 |
|
There is something profoundly counter-intuitive about Advaita Vedanta. Nothing is more obvious to both the philosophical as well as the non-philosophical observer than the fact that multiplicity constitutes the basic datum of our experience.
Variety is not only the spice of life-it is a cardinal fact of life. The doctrines of Advaita Vedanta shock us by flying in the face of this fact and by denying any ultimacy to that plurality and variety which we experience so intimately. This naturally... |

Sea-shell as Silver: A Metaphorical Excursion into Advaita Vedanta |
$31.49 $23.62 |
|
The question of the relationship between the ultimate reality of the universe, and its proximate reality as experienced by us, is apt to boggle the mind, given the vastness of the dimensions involved. The distinction between it and us is like the difference between an avalanche and a snowflake. Nevertheless, the Hindu school of philosophy, known as Advaita Vedanta, tries to render it comprehensible at the level of the individual by pressing everyday analogies into service.
One such analogy is... |

Philosophy of Sri Madhvacarya |
$106.49 $79.87 |
|
About the Book: The volume is a good presentation of the philosophy of Sri Madhvacarya, complete in its architectonic unity. The author probes its ontological and epistemological foundations, and critcally examines the structure erected on them. The discussion focuses on crucial doctrines of theism, and brings to light for the first time the striking parallelisms of thought between Madhva and his Western contemporary St. Thomas Aquinas. Light is also thrown on how Madhva and his commentators... |

A Guide to Hindu Spirituality |

Spirituality is often viewed as something mysterious and esoteric-and Hindu spirituality even more so. Equally, it is often confused with religion and religious practices. But the central claim of spirituality is really quite simple: that our normal life does not exhaust the experience of reality. The word spirituality is simply a signpost pointing to this unexplored region; unexplored yet experienced by each one of us.
A Guide to Hindu Spirituality serves as a guide to help us explore... |
