This authoritative volume, written by two well-known
psychologist-philosophers, presents a model of the person and its
implications for psychological theory and practice. Professors
Ramakrishna Rao and Anand Paranjpe draw the contours of Indian
psychology, describe the methods of study, explain crucial
concepts, and discuss the central ideas and their application,
illustrating them with insightful case studies and judicious
reviews of available research data and existing scholarly
literature. The main theme is organized around the thesis that
psychology is the study of the person and that the person is a
unique composite of body, mind and consciousness. The goal of the
person is self-realization. Self-realization consists in the
realization of one's true self as distinct from the manifest ego
and it is facilitated by cultivating consciousness. Cultivating
consciousness leads to a kind of psycho-spiritual symbiosis
resulting in personal transformation, altruistic value orientation
and flowering of the hidden human potential.
