About Dr. Anantha Rangacharya

-----------------------------

We are honored to announce the first telephone discourse by

Vedanta Vidvan Dr. N.S. Anantha Rangacharya, a renowned scholar of

Indian Philosophy. Dr. Anantha Rangacharya studied Vedanta in the

traditional manner at the feet of Vedanta Vidvan, Vedanta Sarajna

Sri U.Ve. Krishna Tatacharya Swami. He received the B.A. (Hons),

B.T., and Ph.D. degrees from Mysore University. For many years he

was Principal of Maharaja's Sanskrit College, Mysore. He is well

known for his deep study of all the major philosophers of Vedanta

and for his unbiased presentation of Vedantic fundamentals, which

is a treat for the open-minded. He has the distinct honor of

teaching the works of Sri Sankaracharya at the Bharatiya Vidya

Bhavan four times, a feat rarely matched by scholars of any

background.

 

He has authored over 90 books on Vedanta in both English and

Kannada, including translations of the principal Upanishads,

detailed expositions of the commentaries of Sri Ramanuja, the

Tiruvaymoli of Sri Nammalvar, and many other works of both popular

and scholarly interest. He is a tireless lecturer and has

conducted discourses in English, Tamil, and Kannada without a

break for many years in Bangalore.

 

It is our good fortune that Dr. Anantha Rangacharya has agreed to

give us this lecture in English. Everyone should make use of this

opportunity to listen to this octogenarian master of philosophy.
