A Princeton Classics edition of an essential work of twentieth-century scholarship on India Since its first publication, Philosophies of India has been considered a monumental exploration of the foundations of Indian philosophy. Based on the copious notes of Indologist, linguist, and art historian Heinrich Zimmer, and edited by Joseph Campbell, this book is organized into three sections. “The Highest Good” looks at Eastern and Western thought and their convergence; “The Philosophies of Time” discusses the philosophies of success, pleasure, and duty; and “The Philosophies of Eternity” presents the fundamental concepts of Buddhism, Brahmanism, Jainism, Sankhya and yoga, and Tantra. This work examines such areas as the Buddhist Tantras, Buddhist Genesis, the Tantric presentation of divinity, the preparation of disciples and the meaning of initiation, and the symbolism of the mandala-palace Tantric ritual and twilight language. It also delves into the Tantric teachings of the inner Zodiac and the fivefold ritual symbolism of passion. Appendices, a bibliography, and general and Sanskrit indexes are included.

Baltasar Gracian si-a castigat un loc definitiv in constiinta literara romaneasca, un public atent si interesat ii asteapta, asadar, cartile.Pentru acest public, volumul de fata va constitui o veritabila revelatie. Sunt grupate aici si oferite celor care au apreciat Criticonul, marele roman gracianesc, alte cinci capodopere de reflectie morala si religioasa: Eroul, Politicianul, Discernatorul, Oracolul manual – intr-o noua versiune complet revazuta – si Cuminecatorul, ghid de impartasanie de un patetism sublim, neglijat de critica. Cititorul poate reconfigura astfel mult mai exact un itinerar spiritual vaduvit pana acum de componenta sa religioasa: tabloul profund pesimist al evolutiei omului de exceptie intr-o lume ostila e contrabalansat de proiectul izbavirii prin credinta sub semnul absolutului divin incorporat in sacramentul euharistic. Mijloacele umane si cele divine sunt deopotriva utilizate de Gracian pentru a marca integral posibilul drum de salvare destinat omului, fiinta prin excelenta amfibie, solicitata, cu mize diferite, intre terestru si celest. Actualitatea lui Gracian in lumea noastra descumpanita este impresionanta.Precursor al lui Schopenhauer, Nietzsche si Cioran, el adauga demersului sau dimensiunea crestina, mai necesara azi decat oricand.
