THE ATMAN

 

(Delivered in America)

 

Many of you have read Max Muller's celebrated book, Three Lectures on

the Vedanta Philosophy, and some of you may, perhaps, have read, in

German, Professor Deussen's book on the same philosophy. In what is

being written and taught in the West about the religious thought of

India, one school of Indian thought is principally represented, that

which is called Advaitism, the monistic side of Indian religion; and

sometimes it is thought that all the teachings of the Vedas are

comprised in that one system of philosophy. There are, however,

various phases of Indian thought; and, perhaps, this non-dualistic

form is in the minority as compared with the other phases.
