The System Of The Vedanta

The System of the Vedanta is a comprehensive book written by Paul Deussen, which provides a detailed account of the Vedanta philosophy. The Vedanta is a school of Hindu philosophy that is based on the teachings of the Upanishads, which are ancient texts that form the basis of Hinduism. The book is divided into several chapters, each of which deals with a specific aspect of the Vedanta philosophy. The first chapter provides an introduction to the Vedanta and its history, while the second chapter discusses the concept of Brahman, which is the ultimate reality according to the Vedanta. The third chapter deals with the concept of Atman, which is the individual self, and how it relates to Brahman. The fourth chapter discusses the different schools of Vedanta philosophy, including the Advaita, Vishishtadvaita, and Dvaita schools. The fifth chapter discusses the role of meditation in the Vedanta philosophy, while the sixth chapter deals with the concept of Karma, which is the law of cause and effect. The seventh chapter discusses the concept of Maya, which is the illusion of reality, and how it relates to Brahman. The book also includes a detailed glossary of Sanskrit terms, which makes it easier for readers to understand the complex concepts discussed in the book. Overall, The System of the Vedanta is a must-read for anyone interested in Hindu philosophy and spirituality.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
