This book, first published in 1962, is an analysis of the history of the philosophy of a country that has never distinguished philosophy from religion. Indian philosophy is not merely metaphysical speculation, but has its foundation in immediate perception. This insistence upon immediate perception rather than abstract reasoning is what distinguishes the Indian philosophy of religion from philosophy as Western nations know it.

VIJAYA DHARMA SURI A Jain Acharya of the Present Day by Luigi Pio Tessitori was first publishe in 1917. IF I were called upon to express my opinion- of whatever value my poor opinion may be- concerning the Jain Acharya Vijaya Dharma Suri, I should not hesitate to say that he is the most noteworthy figure of whom the entire Jain com¬munity of India may boast at the present day. As a Jain scholar, he has a knowledge of the Jain religious texts which is unrivalled; as a Jain monk he combines in himself the strictest observance of the monastic vows with a liberal interpretation of the spirit of the religion which is unprecedented; as a Jain Acharya, a preacher, and a propagandist, he possesses a power of argumentation, persuasion, and conciliation, which is marvelous. But the most remarkable of all his accomplishments are his broad¬mindedness, which is more like a Western scholar's than a Jain monk's, and his indefatigable activity.

'[Vinaya Chaitanya shows] an acute awareness of textual issues that never bothered earlier translators.' - From the foreword by H.S. Shivaprakash Hailed as an early feminist literary voice, Akka Mahadevi was born in twelfth-century Karnataka. As a child she was initiated into the worship of Channamallikarjuna, her village's version of Siva. She was forced to marry her region's ruler, but because she had become so ardently devoted to the god, Akka abandoned her husband and all her possessions and wandered alone - a naked poet-saint covered only by her long hair. Her vacanas, a new populist literary form meaning literally 'to give one's word' - demonstrate both her radical devotion to Siva and the commitment to equality her Virasaiva poetry embodied.

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi (1869-1948) came to be known as 'Mahatma' Gandhi for his astute vision that translated simple ideals such as non-violence into practical political action. He inspired millions across the world and invoked in Indians a zeal to fight imperial bondage and unite, breaking age old barriers of region, language, caste and religion. A true mahatma, Gandhi had various intensely deep facets to his greatness. His personal ideology, political stance, eating and living habits and his strong belief in God, prayer and the goodness of humankind, all lent themselves to make him the charismatic leader who charmed and inspired children, teenagers, women and men of all ages, in India and across the world. Most of all, it was his simplicity, good humour and strong belief in brotherhood that made Gandhi the enigma that enamoured people of that era and beyond. Sixty years after his death, the fundamental principles of Gandhi's philosophy of unity, brotherhood and non-violence stand threatened around the globe. This book is an effort to provide vignettes into the life of this great man, and into his profound thinking. There is an urgent need to revive his vision for a troubled world, in the twenty-first century. It is a book to make each of us unlearn, rethink and relearn. "You must be the change you wish to see in the world", Gandhi famously said. Let us be that change.
