Vaisesika is one of the six systems of Hindu philosophy. It
represents a pluralistic realism and is usually held to be an
atomistic, metaphysical theory. This book explores the basic tenets
of the Vaisesika classical school of Indian philosophy from a new
perspective. It argues that it reveals an epistemological
formulation of its own, which was diminished due to later
developments in the history of Indian philosophical tradition.
Focusing on the principles of knowable objects and the processes of
knowing as propounded by the Vaisesika school of Indian Philosophy,
the book offers a fuller appreciation of the theories. Providing a
balanced approach by examining earliest available material in the
original sources of Vaisesika and concentrating on the
epistemological pattern adopted therein, it presents an authentic
and comprehensive understanding of Vaisesika concepts. This is the
first introductory sourcebook in English for the authentic study of
Vaisesika, and is of use to students and scholars of World Religion
and Philosophy.
