Karma And Teleology: A Problem And Its Solutions In Indian Philosophy

by Johannes Bronkhorst

The present volume continues my efforts to understand aspects of Indian philosophy by identifying the problems which confronted the thinkers concerned. In the book Langage et realitie ... I studied the consequences which the belief in the close relationship between language and reality had for doctrinal development of Indian philosophy. The present volume concentrates on the consequences of the belief in karma and rebirth.--Preface. Paperback.
