Jivan Mukti Viveka
by Swami Vidyaranya

Jivanmukti, the subject-matter of the present treatise, is a problem of Indian Philosophy. The Jivan-Mukti Viveka of the great Swami Vidyaranya is an important Sanskrit classic of the Vedanta literature. It deals with its subject systematically as well as traditionally. The author defended his points by cogent arguments, and also supported them by quoting passages from the Upanisads, Bhagavad-Gita, Yoga-Vasistha, Bhagavata, Mahabharata, Puranas, Smrtis, and Dharma-Sastras. Effort has been made to make the present translation faithful as well as plain and easy. It is hoped that the readers will be much benefited bya study of the book.
