In the history of thought, Swami Abhedananda is one of the names that keeps being returned to.
The record lists Swami Abhedananda as Indian Hindu mystic (1866-1939).
Swami Abhedananda was born at Kolkata in 1866. His recorded nationality is India. He studied at University of Calcutta.
The nineteenth century produced systems on a grand scale, and then the reaction against them.
The recorded fields of work are hinduism, vedanta and yoga.
The discipline keeps its dead in print, because the arguments are still open.
That the work was done from India matters: philosophical traditions, institutions and the language of publication have never been evenly distributed.
Swami Abhedananda died in 1939, aged 73. The arguments remain in print, which is the form in which philosophy survives.
