Book Description

If we accept the adage «he who knows one, knows none» as an epistemological concept, then the exploration of pluralism becomes an intellectual necessity. And if we take the commonplace description of Hinduism as a plural tradition as an accurate phenomenological description of it, then the need to study Hindu pluralism becomes obvious both as a general principle and as a specific feature.

This book is devoted to a further exploration of Hindu pluralism in its philosophical and historical dimensions.
