Description

This volume carries translation by George Thibaut of The Vedanta-Sutras with the commentary by Ramanuja. RAMANUJA's commentary is known as the Sribhasya is the fullest exposition of what may be called Theistic Vedanta as distinguished from Sankara's Absolutistic Vedanta. It is next to Sankara's in age and importance. It strikes one throughout as a very solid performance due to a writer of extensive learning and great power of argumentation, and in its polemics, directly chiefly against the school of Sankara, it not infrequently deserves to be called brilliant even.
