Preface
I have, in the following pages, attempted to separate the varied threads of the tangled skin of modern Hindu philosophical thought and religious beliefs. Each school of ancient thought was based on a special point of view of its own and was promulgated for the purpose of emphasizing the particular standpoint which appealed to the persons that founded and elaborated that school. But "as the water that rains from the sky goes all to the ocean" and once mixed with the ocean, the contributory streams become indistinguishable from one another, so modern Hinduism has received the tribute of the Upanisads, the Sankhya-yoga, the Vaiseşika-nyaya and the triple Agamas, and its wonderful tolerance has intricately mixed up all these elements. I have endeavored to separate all those elements and exhibit separately the teachings of these ancient systems.

In doing so, I have attempted to discuss the ideas of the earliest available exposition of each school. In India, thinkers, however independent they may be, whatever new vistas of thought they may open up, are compelled by inexorable orthodoxy to father their opinions on the ancients. The boldest thinker this country has produced, Sankara, felt it necessary to seek the sanction of orthodoxy by deriving his new ideas from the old Brahma Sutras and the older Upanisads. Being a philosopher, he had to pretend to be a scholiast.
