He provides numerous examples and illustrations to help readers understand key concepts, and he includes a comprehensive bibliography for further reading.

Print on DemandSeller: Forgotten Books, London, United Kingdom
Seller rating 5 out of 5 stars
Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the fundamental questions of existence, exploring the nature of reality and our perception of it. Drawing inspiration from the philosophical traditions of India, Greece, and Christianity, the author presents a compelling argument for a transcendental perspective on the world. The book challenges the limitations of empirical knowledge, arguing that our understanding of the world is inherently shaped by the inherent structures of our minds. This leads the author to explore the nature of space, time, and causality as fundamental a priori forms of our intellect. The book investigates the role of the understanding and reason in shaping our perception, ultimately positing the concept of Will as the underlying essence of reality. This exploration examines the nature of the human condition, including the source of suffering and the possibility of finding meaning and purpose in a world that may not inherently offer them. By synthesizing philosophical traditions from across history, the book offers a framework for understanding the complexities of human experience and the nature of reality, ultimately suggesting that a deeper understanding of our minds can unlock profound insights into the nature of the universe and our place within it. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.

The Elements of Metaphysics: Being a Guide for Lectures and Private Use (Reprint)
Seller: Vedams eBooks (P) Ltd, New Delhi, India
Seller rating 4 out of 5 stars
Hardcover. Condition: New. This work has been selected by scholars as being culturally important and is part of the knowledge base of civilization. The book, having originated in connection with lectures and being in the first instance intended for these, is adapted to the horizon of students; hence its encyclopedic character; and also the interspersed quotations, which are meant to incite to the study of the original languages, without which a full understanding of Indian, Biblical and Greek metaphysics is scarcely possible. Apart from these the work might be accessible, by a little effort of thought, to every educated mind, more especially after the whole has been read through a second time, when what has hitherto been obscure will become perfectly clear, and indeed the whole will first appear in its true light. The table of contents, forming a series of questions on all the chief points of philosophy, is designed to facilitate repetition and meditation, which should be unremittingly practiced.
