Description
About The Book: Religious Thought and Life in India by Sir Monier Monier-Williams is a detailed study of India's diverse religious traditions, based on his lifelong research and firsthand observations. The book explores Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and other faiths, analyzing their scriptures, rituals, and philosophies. Written from a colonial and missionary perspective, it seeks to interpret Indian religions for Western audiences, often advocating Christian evangelization. While insightful, the work reflects a Eurocentric bias, shaping Western perceptions of Indian spiritual traditions.
