5.0 out of 5 stars The Practical Aspects of Gaudapada's Teaching, July 21, 2008
This review is from: Asparsa-Yoga: A Study of Gaudapada's "Mandukya Karika" (Hardcover)
Colin A. Cole does not examine the kArikA on a verse by verse basis. He is particularly concerned with looking at the practical aspects of Gaudapada's teaching rather than its purely metaphysical ones. In the author's words, he is 'investigating the nature of the soteriology of Advaita Vedanta'. [i.e. the teaching of the way to salvation or mokSha.] And it succeeds very well, providing a very readable account of the essence of the teaching and relegating the references to footnotes. It is academic in tone but this does not detract from the value of this excellent interpretation.

Dennis Waite, author of Back to the Truth: 5000 years of Advaita
