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.
