About Book
If any movement of the West was deeply influenced by the philosophy and wisdom of India it was American Transcendentalism of the nineteenth century.It emerged as a strong reactionary movement,braving the currents of British Empiricism,Scientific Naturalism and Dialectical materialism of Europe.American Transcendentalism believed in commitment to the Truth rather than in religious dogma and theology.The eclectic American Transcendalists,led by Emerson,Thoreau,and Whitman,turned to Indian and Greek philosophy,Sufism,Confucianism,Taoism and Buddhism for inspiration in their mission to stem the influence of the materialistic culture of Europe on an emerging American Society.Thoreau,hoever,surpassed the others in his enthusiasm for Vedic literature.
