Salvation in Indian Philosophy

 is book o ffers a comprehensive description of the ‘doctrine of salvation'

(ni ḥśreyasa/mokṣa) and Vaiśeṣika, one of the oldest philosophical systems of


Indian philosophy and provides an overview of theories in other related

Indian philosophical systems and classical doctrines of salvation.

 e book examines liberation, the fourth goal of life and arguably one of

the most important topics in Indian philosophy, from a comparative

philosophical perspective. Contextualising classical Greek Philosophy whi 


contains the three goals of life (Aristotle’s Ethics) and explains salvation as

first understood in the theology of the Hellenistic and Patristics periods, the
author analyses six classical philosophical s  ools of Indian philosophy in

whi  there is a marked emphasis on the ultimate ontological elements of

̀ ṣ
the world and ‘self ’. Analysing Vaise ika and the manner in whi  this

lesser known system has put forward its own theory of salvation

(ni ḥśreyasa), the author demonstrates its signi ficance and originality as an

old and in fluential philosophical system. He argues that it is essential for the
study of other Indian sciences and for the study of all comparative

philosophy.

An extensive introduction to Indian soteriology, this book will be an

important reference work for academics interested in comparative religion

and philosophy, Indian philosophy, Asian religion and South Asian Studies.

Ionut Moise is a tutor in Comparative Philosophy at the Oxford Centre for

Hindu Studies (OCHS), University of Oxford, UK.

Referencing: In both footnotes and bibliography I have used an abbreviated

form of the Oxford referencing system with only author’s surname, year and

date(e.g., Halbfass, 1980, p.268), and no bra  ets for year. For English, I have

used English grammar and spelling (e.g., realise, instead of realize).

Transliteration: All Sanskrit is in roman transliteration. For Greek I have

kept the original script. I have not followed the convention of pu 


ing either

Sanskrit, Greek or Latin in italics. Whenever I have referred to a particular

Sanskrit term in bra  ets, I have opted for the ‘stem form’ of MW Dictionary

(e.g., for karma, karman); when I have not done so, I gave a portion of the

quotation. I have also used Sanskrit terminology in a more colloquial

fashion (‘theory of karma’, or the plural form 'dravyas’), not least because

su  concepts are already consecrated within s  olarship. I gave many

terminological translations in bra  ets, e.g., substance (dravya). Sometimes I

have analysed terms without even supplying a translation for these (e.g.,

sa ṃ skāra), as I consider their English rendering debatable among s  olars.

More generally, the diacritics of the Sanskrit authors and works referred to

therein are those of the Bodleian Libraries Catalogue (SOLO) and Karl

Po  er’s Encyclopaedia.

For the Buddhist and Jain section, whose sources are in Pāli and Prakrit, I

have relied on s  olars’ terminology cited, yet, I have sought to provide as

mu  as possible the equivalent term in Sanskrit. My expertise deals only

with Sanskrit sources. In the first apter whi dealt with biblical, patristic,
and Greek sources, I have preferred using Greek. For the sources of New

Testament, I have used Nestle-Aland Revised 28th Edition (online), for the

Patristics sources I used the dictionaries referred to in the bibliography,

while for the Greek philosophical references I have used  e Loeb Classical

Library, via LSJ (Henry George Liddell, Robert Sco 


, Greek-English Lexicon

(online).
Candrānanda’s Vṛ  i: Finally, this thesis is based on the transliteration of a

critical edition made by the Hungarian s  olar Ferenc Ruzsa (academia.edu).

However, the shortcoming of his feat is that he worked on the 1982 edition,

whi  Isaacson recommends to be avoided as it contains a sprinkle of new

misprints; hence, in all my work have I relied on Jambūvijayaji’s first edition


(1961), whi  I have described and quoted throughout.  e textual critical

apparatus of VSc is thus based on the philological work of these two


s olars, who are in the best position to supply a new critical edition of

Vaiśeṣikasūtras for the future.
