Philosophy of the Upanishads and Ancient Indian Metaphysics

1903. As exhibited in a series of articles contributed to the Calcutta Review. Those interested in the general history of philosophy will find in this volume an account of a very early attempt on the part of thinkers of a rude age and race to form a cosmological theory. The Upanishads are so many songs before sunrise-spontaneous effusions of awakening reflection, half poetical, half metaphysical, that precede the conscious and methodical labor of the long succession of thinkers to construct a thoroughly intelligible conception of the sum of things. This introduction to the Upanishads will prove indispensable for readers who are interested in Indian matters.Gough, Archibald Edward is the author of 'Philosophy of the Upanishads and Ancient Indian Metaphysics ', published 2004 under ISBN 9781432611910 and ISBN 1432611917.
