About The Book: The book outlines Shankara's Vedanta philosophy, emphasizing the identity of Brahman and the soul. It discusses contradictions from experience and Vedic rituals, delves into ignorance versus knowledge, and examines the source of knowledge. The chapters explore theology, distinguishing esoteric and exoteric Brahman, and cosmology, touching on world-periods and the necessity for repeated creations. Psychology covers the soul's reality, its metaphysical and empirical aspects, and its limiting conditions. It also addresses the migration of the soul and the path to emancipation through knowledge, grace, and the abolition of karma, leading to absorption into Brahman.
