Eastern Religions and Western Thought - Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan - Hardcover

This challenging and beautifully written book describes the leading ideas of Indian philosophy and religion. It traces the probable influence of Indian mysticism on Greek thought and Christian development, through Alexandrian Judaism, Christian Gnosticism, and Neo-Platonism. The author argues that Christianity, which arose out of an eastern background and became wedded to Graeco-Latin culture, will find rebirth in a renewed alliance with this Eastern heritage.Radhakrishnan, Sarvepalli is the author of 'Eastern Religions and Western Thought - Sarvepalli Radhakrishnan - Hardcover' with ISBN 9780195606041 and ISBN 0195606043.
