The proposed book presents an overview of select theories in the
classical Vaisesika system of Indian philosophy, such as the
concept of categories, creation and existence, atomic theory,
consciousness and cognition. It also expounds in detail the concept
of dharma, the idea of the highest good and expert testimony as a
valid means of knowing in Vaisesika thought. Some of the major
themes discussed are the religious inclination of Vaisesika thought
towards Pasupata Saivism, the affiliation of the Vaisesika System
to the basic foundations of Indian philosophical thought, namely
Veda and Yoga, and their insights into science, hermeneutics and
metaphysics. In addition, this book includes recent Sanskrit
commentaries on key Vaisesika texts and provides a glimpse of
Vaisesika studies across the world. Overall, this book enunciates
the Vaisesika view from original sources and is an important work
for Vaisesika studies in current times for serious students as well
as researchers.
