About This Item
State Univ of New York Pr, 1986-11-01. Hardcover. Very Good. State Univ of New York Pr [Published date: 1986]. Hard cover, 273 pp. Very good/ NO dust jacket. Black, red and white paper over boards have light bumping to edges and light overall scuffing. Binding tight. Pages clean and unmarked. NOT Ex-library. NO remainder marks. [From back cover] This is a collection of careful, objective, historically sensitive studies of modern commentators on the Bhagavadgita, one of the basic scriptures of Hinduism, and one which has been widely read in the modern West. Experts on modern Indian religious thought show how Ghandi, Vivekananda, Radhakrishnan, Bhaktivedanta, Aurobindo, Tilak, Bhave, Sivananda, the Theosophists, and Bhankim read, used and interpreted the Gita. Collectively, the essays display the different backgrounds and orientations of the major Indian thinkers of our time. An Introduction and a Conclusion provide a perspective on the thinkers and identify common themes which are part of modern emphases.
