The civilization of the Indian subcontinent is by far the world s oldest living civilization. A Treasury of Indian Wisdom traces its intellectual and spiritual history over 5000 years. The anthology begins with Vedic hymns, journeys into the heart of Vedantic philosophy through the Upanishads, and discusses the fundamental truths offered by Buddhist and Jain monks. Presenting the beauty and devotion in the verses of the Bhakti, Sufi and Sikh gurus, it finally evolves into the contemporary ideologies of the moderns like Jawaharlal Nehru, J. Krishnamurti and Osho. In keeping with the spirit of pluralism, the book puts together the wide-ranging wisdom of saints and scholars, thinkers and reformers, poets and leaders. At a time of great turmoil and transition, Dr Karan Singh s selections come as a reminder of our timeless secular heritage for a generation seeking its place in the world.
