The Bhagavad-gita : with the commentary of Śri Śankarāchārya
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to outline the unique aspects of Vivekananda’s interpretation of Vedanta philosophy. Design/methodology/approach – The doctrine of the One and the many being the same reality is the philosophical core of the vast and varied treasury of Vivekananda’s teachings and, indeed, of his life. Findings – Vivekananda has given a remarkable interpretation of the Vedanta philosophy which is not only universal but also both inspiring and rational (and accommodative). Practical implications – Combining service with spirituality, grounding religion in rationality and being very contemporary in its sensitivities, Vivekananda’s thought is poised to become the ideology of the modern Indian nation. Originality/value – Vedanta philosophy is inclusive of ethics that are well-grounded in Vedantic metaphysics and constitutes a very effective response to the inequities and corruption widespread in contemporary societies.
