Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book provides a comprehensive analysis of Oriental religions, primarily focusing on the development of Brahmanism and Buddhism in India. The author traces their evolution from early pantheistic nature-worship to the more developed philosophical systems of the Upanishads and Indian epics. The book examines the fundamental concepts of these religions, such as the idea of an impersonal divine substance, the cycle of rebirth, and the pursuit of spiritual liberation. It explores how these ideas shaped the social and ethical systems of ancient India, including the controversial caste system. The author argues that Oriental religions offer valuable insights into the nature of reality, the human condition, and the search for spiritual fulfillment. By examining the historical development and philosophical underpinnings of these religions, the book provides a deeper understanding of their significance in shaping human thought and culture.
