Three Lectures on the Vedanta Philosophy

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. I AM fully aware of the difficulties which I shall have to encounter in trying to enlist your interest, nay, if possible, your sympathy, for an ancient system of Indian Philosophy, the Vedanta Philo sophy. It is no easy task, even within the walls of this scientific Institution, to Obtain a hearing for a mere system of philosophy, whether new or Old. The world is too busy to listen to purely theoretical speculations; it wants exciting experi ments and, if possible, tangible results. And yet I remember one who ought to be well known to all of you in this place, I remember our dear friend Tyndall, rejoicing over a new theory.
