The Six Systems of Indian Philosophy (Classic Reprint)

Six Systems of Indian Philosophy which have accumulated in my note-books for many years. It was as early as 1852 that I published my first contributions to the study of Indian philosophy in the Zeitsckrift der Deutschen Morgenlandischen Gesellschaft. My other occupations, however, and, more particularly, my preparations for a complete edition of the Rig-V eda, and its voluminous commentary, did not allow me at that time to continue these contributions, though my interest in Indian philosophy, as a most important part of the literature of India and of Universal Philosophy, has always remained the same. This interest was kindled afresh when I had to finish for theS acred Books of theE ast (vols. I and XV) my translation of the Upanishads. the remote sources of Indian philosophy, and especially of the Vedanta-philosophy, a system in which human speculation seems to me to have reached its very acme.
