    Seven Systems of Indian Philosophy

    Throughout the history of mankind, people have been occupied with the pursuit of understanding their environment, themselves, and the nature of whatever reality may exist beyond. The answer to these questions has evolved into two great philosophies, which are usually designated by the geographical division of East and West. Western philosophy looks outward to external data, while Eastern philosophy turns inward to internal experience; one method is based primarily on dialectics and discursive deductive speculation, while the other is based on introspection and direct intuitive insight.

    In this work Pandit Rajmani Tigunait, PhD, provides Western students with an easily understandable view of the seven schools of Eastern philosophy traditionally studied in India:

    • Buddhism
    • Nyaya
    • Vaisheshika
    • Sankhya
    • Yoga
    • Mimamsa
    • Vedanta

    Each school of Eastern philosophical thought is explained in accord with the strict standards of tradition and scholarship, allowing Western readers to achieve a proper understanding of Eastern wisdom. See what the Eastern view on life’s deepest questions has to offer you. Purchase your copy of Seven Systems of Eastern Philosophy today.

    Pandit Rajmani Tigunait, PhD, is a modern-day master and living link in the unbroken Himalayan Tradition. He is the successor to Sri Swami Rama of the Himalayas, and the spiritual head of the Himalayan Institute. As the author of numerous books, including his autobiography Touched by Fire: The Ongoing Journey of a Spiritual Seeker, Pandit Tigunait offers practical guidance on applying yogic and tantric wisdom to modern life. For over 40 years he has touched innumerable lives around the world as a teacher, humanitarian, and visionary spiritual leader. You can view more of his teachings online in the library of Himalayan Institute Online.

    Pandit Tigunait holds two doctorates: one in Sanskrit from the University of Allahabad in India, and another in Oriental Studies from the University of Pennsylvania. Family tradition gave Pandit Tigunait access to a vast range of spiritual wisdom preserved in both the written and oral traditions. Before meeting his master, Pandit Tigunait studied Sanskrit, the language of the ancient scriptures of India, as well as the languages of the Buddhist, Jaina, and Zorastrian traditions. In 1976, Swami Rama ordained Pandit Tigunait into the 5,000-year-old lineage of the Himalayan Masters.
