The Tarkakaumudi: Being An Introduction To The Principles Of The Vaisheshika And The Nyaya Philosophies (1886) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781104921736)

The Tarkakaumudi is a philosophical text written by Bhaskara and Laugakshi in 1886. The book serves as an introduction to the principles of two major Hindu philosophical schools, the Vaisheshika and the Nyaya. The Vaisheshika school is concerned with the nature of reality and the ultimate building blocks of the universe, while the Nyaya school focuses on logic and epistemology. The Tarkakaumudi provides a comprehensive overview of these two schools of thought, including their key concepts, principles, and arguments. The authors draw on a range of primary sources, including the Vaisheshika Sutras and the Nyaya Sutras, to present a clear and accessible introduction to these complex philosophical systems. The book is an important resource for scholars of Hindu philosophy and anyone interested in exploring the rich intellectual traditions of India.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
