From the Jacket
The present collection here is not entirely from the works of Sankara, but from all works bearing on the Philosophy taught by Sankara and his followers. The whole collection is being divided into sections and sub-sections with a view to exhaust the main topics of the Absolute Philosophy. Texts from the Upanisads and other works are often referred to in Vedanta writings. That almost every important reference of this kind may easily be traced to its place in this collection, where it should be found in its entirety with translation, a careful Alphabetical Index puts together the principal points of this philosophy, and directs even the most causal reader to whatever information this book can give on the questions and its bearings. Words not Englished in the text have been collected together for explanation in an Index, to which the reader may conveniently refer.
