Sobre IBD

Vedanta means ’the end of the Veda.’ It is also the name for India’s most profound system of philosophy. In this book, based on a lecture given in 1901, Swami Abhedananda concisely and vividly expounds a vision of human and cosmic existence rooted in this philosophy. While he argues vigorously for the reality of reincarnation, which forms the keystone of his thinking, he also explores human nature and Divine nature; reincarnation in other religions; reincarnation and the scientific worldview; and reincarnation in relation to Darwinian evolution. In lucid, easily-comprehensible prose, Swami Abhedananda propounds a distinctively Hindu vision of what it means to be human. In doing so, he translates some of India’s profoundest spiritual wisdom into terms that are readily comprehensible to a modern western reader.
