PREFACE.

THE design of this little work is to provide for missionaries, and for others who, like them, have little leisure for original research, an accurate summary of the doctrines of the Vednta. If the people of India can be said to have now any system of religion at all, apart from mere caste observances, it is to be found in the Vednta philosophy, the leading tenets of which are known to some extent in every village. The subject is therefore one of great importance, and the Vedntasra is generally acknowledged to be the most satisfactory summary of the modern phases of it.

In the notes, I have endeavoured to furnish a full explanation of every difficulty, and of each point needing elucidation, and in so doing have drawn largely from the writings of well-known Oriental scholars. The text of the Vedntasra which I have used is that published in Calcutta in 1875 by Pandit Jvnanda Vidysgara, with the Commentary of Nisimhasarasvati.

The following is a list of the works and editions referred to in the translation and notes. I am deeply indebted to Dr. Banerjeas Dialogues on the Hindu Philosophy, and to Dr. Fitzedward Halls Rational Refutation of the Hindu Philosophical Systems. These two are, in my judgment, the most valuable works of their kind in the English language.
