Description

Explore the complex intellectual legacy of one of India's most influential thinkers. Swami Vivekananda (1863-1902) holds a significant place in both Indian and Western thought, particularly through his preaching of Vedanta. While many studies rely on hagiography or political interpretations, this Routledge publication offers a different perspective on his actual philosophy. This work moves beyond the common labels used to describe his views. It argues that Vivekananda was not a simple pluralist, as many traditional texts suggest, nor was he a narrow exclusivist as some modern political groups claim. Instead, the book presents him as a thoughtful and complex inclusivist. Readers will gain a deeper understanding of how Vivekananda formulated a specific framework of Hinduism that is both hierarchical and inclusivistic. This book is an essential resource for those studying the history of Indian philosophy, the development of Vedanta, and the nuances of religious thought in a global context.
