Overview

FOR LIMITED TIME - READ THE FIRST CHAPTER - https: //drive.google.com/file/d/152W9amSp-2ZYwS4fwnbkZKKhDVANiR7v/view?usp=sharing Have you ever felt overwhelmed with the several philosophical concepts that sit within Hinduism? Why do we have several Gods and Goddesses? What are the various paths to Moksha such as the Karma Yoga, Bhakti Yoga and Jñāna/Gyan Yoga? What is the true nature of Self? What is this illusion of Maya? What is the idea of Swadharma (personal duties)? Why is there a need for Ishta Devta (Personal God)? What is the role of Guna (Innate Qualities)? and many more intriguing questions and concepts that confound even the practitioners. Many understand these individual concepts/principles but struggle to build a coherent picture where all these concepts come together under one philosophical umbrella. ""Hindu Philosophy for an Inquisitive Mind"" by Siddharth Bhaskar offers a captivating exploration of Hinduism's fundamental concepts, presenting them in a logical, well-reasoned manner suited for modern, analytical minds. The author structures the book as a dialogue between 'Aham' (the seeker) and 'Brahman' (the learned guide), leveraging a Q&A format to support deeper understanding. The book doesn't shy away from challenging topics, encouraging readers to question and contemplate rather than blindly accept. Through this approach, the book tackles many popular yet complex philosophical concepts. This book skilfully weaves together ancient wisdom from scriptures like the Bhagavad Gita, Upanishads, Brahma Sutras, Vivekachudamani, and others. It then uses modern explanations and everyday examples to make these age-old concepts relevant to contemporary life. Key themes explored in this book include: Attachments and Desires Karma-Phal (Returns/Rewards of your Karma) Nishkāma Karma Law of Karma Good and Evil Duty (Swadharma) Non-Resistance and Self-Sacrifice (Path of Karma Yoga) Path of Love (Path of Bhakti Yoga) Māyā and Avidya Guna (Innate Qualities) True Self: Brahman (Path of Jñāna/Gyan Yoga) This book is not just a dry philosophical treatise. It's a thought-provoking journey that challenges readers to examine their own beliefs, desires, and actions. As you progress through the chapters, you'll find yourself questioning long-held assumptions about the nature of reality, true nature of Self, and the various pursuits of life. The book doesn't claim to have all the answers, but it equips you with the tools to ask better questions and embark on your own journey of self-discovery through the lens of Advaita Vedanta. While the book emphasizes the role of logical understanding, it also accepts that true realisation comes through personal experience and introspection. Get ready to test and apply these timeless principles in your own life and embark upon the journey of a seeker... Whether you're a spiritual seeker, a philosophy enthusiast, or simply curious about Hinduism's deeper teachings, this book provides a solid foundation for understanding one of the world's oldest and most complex philosophical traditions. What sets this book apart: 1. Simplicity: Complex philosophical concepts are broken down into digestible, relatable explanations. 2. Logical approach: The author appeals to reason and analysis, rather than relying solely on faith or tradition. 3. Practical application: Readers are encouraged to apply these teachings to their own lives and experiences.
