Hindu Systems of Thought as Epistemic Disciplines

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Boston Studies in the Philosophy of Science ((BSPS,volume 102))

Abstract

The title of this essay may sound exotic, and its subject (at least in direct formulation) may certainly seem out of place in the history and philosophy of science. So my first tasks will be to show how and in what sense it should belong there.

For a glossary of Indian philosophical terms occurring in Chapter I, see p. 350.

This is not a study of Hindu philosophies — but a methodology of how they are to be studied.
