Descrizione
About The Book: In this comprehensive book, the author delves into various facets of Samkhya philosophy, examining its presence in the Upanishads, its connections with Buddhism, its philosophical influence on epic literature, its origins, its interplay with Yoga, its significance in the Satitantra, its intersections with Greek philosophy, and a detailed analysis of the Samkhya Karika. The philosophy's denial of a supreme spirit, coupled with the belief that the spirit is the sole subject, yields intriguing implications. This concept, rooted in the Upanishads and possibly the Rigveda, finds elaboration in the deistic Svetasvatara Upanishad, where Rudra is both the object of devotion and the absolute and supreme spirit.
