Applied Vedic Science – Advanced (Vedanta)

SAN8110 – (Sanskrit Studies – Elective Course) The schools of philosophy based on the last portions of the Vedas, i.e. Vedānta, not only vary in their interpretation of the Vedānta but also differ among themselves with regard to their categories and ontology of the world both here and hereafter.
