Hardbound. Condition: As New. Contents: Preface. 1. Introduction. 2. Atman. 3. Brahman. 4. World. 5. Advaita. 6. Advaita and language. Bibliography. Glossary. Index. "For over a millennium, Sankara's advaitism: nondualism, has been exposed to extensive discussion, debate, and even polemic. In modern times, it has often been viewed as a system of metaphysical thought, involving a set of several subtle, though interrelated, doctrines--which all have the Upanisads at their base. But, wittingly or unwittingly, modern theoreticians/scholars tend to gloss over Sankara's acumen as a philosophical analyst--though his interpretations of the Upanisadic writings have indisputably shown his uncommon, rather unrivalled, genius for logic and meticulous philosophical analysis. Professor Ramamurty's work is, thus, a departure from run-of-the-mill studies attempting, as it does, an indepth 'conceptual analysis' of advaita vedanta. "The book does not just present advaita as a system of metaphysical thought. It is essentially an off-beat effort seeking to philosophically analyse the concepts of Atman, Brahman, and the World--which not only count among the fundamental concepts in the philosophic thought of the Upanisads, but also help capture the true meaning, profoundity, richness and beauty of Sankara's advaita itself. Also, in the specific contexts of Sankara's philosophy vis-a-vis the Upanisadic texts, Professor Ramamurty tries to explore, perhaps for the first time, the meaning and functions of language and the problem that stem from it.

Contents Preface Introduction1 Approach to World 2 Approach to World II 3 Brahman 4 Matter 5 Consciousness 6 Spirit or Self Bibliography IndexThis book is in one sense a critique of metaphysics usually viewed as an attempt to explain the existence of the world in terms of a reality which is regarded as the ultimate cause or source of the world and in another sense to understand metaphysics as a profoundly significant attempt to know or understand the true or real nature of what is there or what we all experience empirically or the world Most of the philosophers belonging to different schools of philosophy tried to understand the world in terms of a reality which is supposed to be the explanation of it However in the other approach to metaphysics which we discern in the philosophy of Shankara and which is in tune with the basic insights of the Upanishads a comprehensive attempt is made to know or understand the true or real nature of what we know empirically or the world before any attempt is made to explain its existence We therefore tried to analyse and understand critically the basic concepts involved in the ontological problem of Brahman like the nature of the world its causal explanation nature and ontological status of matter consciousness and its relation to spirit or self with a view to understanding the Advaitic insight that Brahman is the true nature of what we experience and know empirically or the world 142 pp.
