Known as the oldest phiilosophical texts of the world,the Vedas have always aroused much scholarly curiosity.Several thinkers have sought to prise open the hidden meaning(s) within the Vedas with the help of the Upanishads and decode them. Using the premises of Plato and Kant to solve the fundamental problem of causality posed to the Advaita Vedanta,Deussen paved the way for the dialogue between Indian and Western philosophy.In this book,each verse of Sadananda Yogendra's Vedantasara has been systematically analysed and provided with important critical notes.The Sanskrit verses have also been given in their original script.
