About this ebook
What does it mean to say that the self and ultimate reality are not two? This original English introduction to Adi Shankara and Advaita Vedanta explains nonduality, Brahman, the witness, superimposition, scriptural knowledge, contemplation, devotion, and liberation across eighteen clear chapters. Original everyday examples make the arguments approachable while testing their limits and distinguishing Shankara’s thought from Buddhist accounts. The book also addresses uncertainty in the historical record and restrictions on access to learning. Includes a defined glossary and annotated reading notes. Part of Noetic Lantern: World Thinkers, Clearly. An independent critical introduction, not a translation or a promise of spiritual results.
