Full Description
A stimulating account of the wide range of approaches towards conceptualising emotions in classical Indian philosophical-religious traditions, such as those of the Upanishads, Vaishnava Tantrism, Bhakti movement, Jainism, Buddhism, Yoga, Shaivism, and aesthetics, this volume analyses the definition and validity of emotions in the construction of identity and self-discovery.
