Prof Muller And Modern Indology,
By Rahul (India) - See all my reviews
This review is from: India: What Can It Teach Us (Paperback)
Although he was a pioneer among 19th century scholars who tried evaluating the real thought behind what is generally brushed aside as "Indian Mysticism", it is a an open question as to his legacy. A legacy which is used neither by the modern Indologist circles nor by the indian traditionalists. The book is an effort to best describe Vedic India, as Muller saw with tools and resources best known to him.Besides throwing open the possibilities for comparative religion of the Ancient Indo-Europeans with his book, Science of Mythology, this work will be remembered for being sincerely a tribute to the ancient, but not yet lost, Bharat. Max Muller deserves the respect of Indian Traditions & Modern Indologists. Modern Indology needs to be sympathetic not only to Bharat but the entire INdo-European Heritage as well. It has been a pleasure for me to have gifted my only copy of this book to some people from Germany whom I came across on a journey. But this book speaks of an age long gone and a land not existing anymore. |
