Most of the essays included here are the papers presented by the contributors at the Fifteenth International Congress of Vedanta apart from the invited essays contributed by Professor Pappu's friends and admirers in India and abroad. Essays in this volume have been arranged in six sections covering the areas of Vedanta Metaphysics Advaita Epistemology and Ethics Schools of Vedanta and other systems global parallels and finally Vedanta and the contemporary world.
