Part of the author’s magisterial survey of the beliefs of the East, this 1872 volume on the religion, life, and philosophy of India is the result to twenty years of study. Johnson thoughtfully discusses Hinduism, Buddhism, ethics, Nirvana, hymns, traditions, the role of women, piety, morality, transmigration, incarnation, and more.
