Paperback. Condition: New. Language: English. About The Book : In the ever-increasing mass of literature which has been devoted to the criticism and appreciation of Indian thought, a tendency to extremes has constantly manifested itself. On the one hand we find amongst outside critics signs of a disposition to undervalue the results of India speculation. Over- zealous attempts are sometimes made to derive from alien sources the most important elements in Oriental philosophy, and when such attempts are shown by serious scholars to be almost altogether impossible, recourse is taken to a superior and slightly patronizing attitude in which, no doubt, expressions of depreciation are politely avoided, but the place of genuine and sympathetic appreciation is occupied by intermittent ejaculations of wonder as to how a people who have not had the benefits of the cultural inheritance which the superior critics themselves enjoy, should have been capable of so much as has actually been accomplished in India.A study of the Vedanta leads to many general reflections on the relations between philosophy and religion, and in particular to the questions how far such a philosophy can satisfy religious needs and how far it can be regarded as a preparation for Christianity About The Author : W.S. Urquhart associated with Scottish churches college, Calcutta in the early 20th century. He has made some comparisons between the Vedanta and modern philosophical thought; anticipation of Vedantie Ideas in the Upanishads. The author made it clear that in the Vedanta, as well as in other Indian philosophies, we may notice a remarkable unity of development more closely than in Western philosophy.
